What customers see

Deck permits

In Halton Hills a deck serving a house needs a building permit only when it is both more than 600 mm (24 in) above grade and larger than 10 m² (108 ft²). A deck no more than 600 mm above grade doesn’t need one, whatever its size.

Building permits

Halton Hills needs a building permit for renovations and alterations, new plumbing, an accessory apartment in an existing house, and a wood stove or fireplace. Structures of 10 m² or less, house air conditioners, shingle replacement and a furnace swapped for one of the same output and fuel don’t need one.

Trees

Halton Hills has no private tree by-law yet — the Town’s Privately-Owned Tree Management Strategy recommends one be considered after more public consultation. Halton Region’s Tree By-law still covers woodlands over 0.5 hectares and the Regional Greenlands System.

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.
