Building permits

Ajax’s tap water comes from Lake Ontario through Durham Region’s lake-based system, with a hardness of 125 mg/L as calcium carbonate — enough to leave scale on fixtures and in water heaters over time.

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
- Certificate of Qualification — Plumber (306A)
Licensed trade
Yes. Plumbing is a compulsory trade in Ontario, so Doyo checks your Certificate of Qualification (306A) before you are offered plumbing work, and again when it is due to renew.
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.
