Working in Aurora

What customers see

Building permits

Aurora needs no building permit to finish a basement with no structural work and no new bedrooms, for a deck no more than 0.6 m (2 ft) above grade with no roof, for a shed of 15 m² or less with no plumbing, or for a fence that does not enclose a pool. Furnace and boiler replacements in a house need none either; new plumbing may need a separate plumbing permit.

Water

Aurora’s water is a blend of Lake Ontario water and groundwater, and measured 130 mg/L of hardness in 2026 — “hard” on York Region’s scale, enough to scale fixtures and water heaters.

The housing here

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.
