Heritage district

Sharon is East Gwillimbury’s first heritage conservation district: Council adopted the Sharon HCD Plan and Guidelines in May 2026. Inside a district, demolition, a new building or an addition needs a heritage permit, while routine maintenance and interior renovations generally do not.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Customers let Doyo pros into their homes. These checks are why they do.

  • Government photo ID and a matching selfie
  • A clear police record check
  • A smartphone with the Doyo Pro app
  • Your own tools, and transport to jobs

No provincial licence

No licence is needed for handyman work, but work Ontario licenses is not handyman work. Moving an outlet or replacing a supply line goes to a licensed electrician or plumber, and Doyo routes it to one.

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.
