What customers see

Building permits

Mississauga needs a building permit for a finished basement, a deck more than 0.61 m (2 ft) high, a backwater valve, a higher-efficiency furnace or altered ductwork, and any sink, tub, toilet or shower that’s added or moved. A free-standing, one-storey storage shed under 15 m² with no plumbing doesn’t need one, and neither does a fence.

Trees

Mississauga needs a permit to injure or remove any tree on private property that is 15 cm (6 in) or more in diameter, including dead or dying trees. The base permit fee is $399.77, waived for dead or dying trees.

Heritage districts

Mississauga has three heritage conservation districts: Meadowvale Village, Old Port Credit Village and Streetsville. Work there has to follow the district’s Heritage District Plan, and on a designated property changes to windows, doors, roofing or masonry need heritage approval before they start.

Yard waste

Peel Region collects Mississauga’s yard waste from March to mid-December — weekly in spring and fall, every other week in summer — in kraft paper bags or labelled, open rigid containers, never plastic bags or sod. Each bag, container or tied brush bundle must weigh under 20 kg. The City takes over collection on October 1, 2027.

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.
