What customers see

Building permits

East Gwillimbury needs no building permit for an uncovered deck less than 600 mm (24 in) above the ground, or for a storage shed of 15 m² (161 sq ft) or less with no plumbing. Replacing a furnace or hot water tank with the same fuel and heat output, installing an air conditioner or air-to-air heat pump, re-shingling and replacing plumbing fixtures need none either.

Trees

East Gwillimbury’s Tree Protection By-law covers trees 20 cm (8 in) or more in diameter on private property, measured 1.37 m above the ground. A homeowner may remove up to three live, healthy trees of no more than 30 cm each in a year without a permit, and dead, dying, diseased and hazard trees are exempt; anything else needs a tree permit first.

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.

  • 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
  • Your own tools, and transport to jobs

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.
