Building permits
Ajax’s Building Services lists decks and porches, sheds, garages and carports, plumbing, renovations and additions among the work that needs a building permit, and publishes a separate guide for finishing a basement. Applications go through the Town’s online portal.

Ajax’s Tree Protection By-law (137-2006) needs a permit to damage or remove trees in parks, Greenbelt land and Environmental Protection land. The Town removes only trees on Town property, and prunes the Town-owned boulevard trees on a six-to-eight-year cycle.

Requirements
What you’ll need
Customers let Doyo pros into their homes. These checks are why they do.
- 18 or older, legally able to work in Canada
- Government photo ID and a matching selfie
- A clear police record check
- A smartphone with the Doyo Pro app

No provincial licence
No provincial licence is needed to build a deck or a fence, but many decks need a building permit from the town. Say in your quote which permits the job needs and who applies for them.
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.
