The housing here
Of the City of Toronto’s 1.16 million occupied homes in the 2021 census, 29% were built in 1960 or earlier and 58% before 1981; 47% are apartments in buildings of five or more storeys and 23% are single-detached houses.

Toronto’s Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy pays 80% of the invoice up to $1,600 per backwater valve (two at most), $2,250 for a sump pump, $300 for a battery backup, $400 to sever and cap the foundation drain and $500 for a plumbing assessment — up to $6,650 per house. Downspouts must be disconnected, the contractor needs a City business licence, and you apply within two years.

Toronto Building needs a permit for a deck more than 60 cm (24 in) above the ground, for basement work that changes the structure, adds plumbing or creates a unit, for new or modified heating and plumbing, and for a backwater valve. Replacing a furnace or boiler in a house, or repairing and replacing plumbing fixtures, needs none. North York’s Toronto Building district office is at the North York Civic Centre, 5100 Yonge St., by appointment.

No provincial licence
No. Flooring and tile installation need no provincial licence. You pass Doyo’s ID and police record checks and quote each job after checking the subfloor.
Some trades also ask for proof of liability insurance; the application tells you if yours does. Doyo reviews your documents — usually within a couple of business days.
Payouts
How payouts work
For jobs the customer pays by card through Doyo, your earnings reach your Doyo balance when the job is completed, and payouts are sent weekly by e-transfer. Tips are yours in full. On quote jobs, the deposit and balance are held until the customer confirms the work, and a warranty holdback is released after the warranty period.
