Renovation contractors in Brampton, Ontario

Brampton’s Building Division needs a permit for a finished basement, a second unit, new or enlarged window and door openings, and any deck that is attached to the house or 0.6 m (2 ft) or more above the ground. A storage shed needs one at 15 m² or more, and a gazebo or other accessory building at 10 m² or more. Re-shingling, a fence (other than a pool fence) and swapping a forced-air furnace without changing the ductwork don’t. If the basement is part of it: Peel Region pays 60% of the invoice, up to $1,500 including tax, for a sanitary backwater valve installed after July 16, 2024 in a Brampton single, semi or townhome. It needs a licensed contractor, a City building permit and a passed inspection, and homes with a basement apartment sharing the sewer line don’t qualify. One rebate per home every 10 years.

Help centre

By written quote. A pro visits, looks at the space and sends a line-by-line quote in the app. You pay a deposit when you accept it, and Doyo holds that deposit until you confirm the work is done. Part of the pro’s payment is held back for a warranty period after completion, so there is still money on the table if something needs putting right.
