What customers see

Basement flooding rebate

For Caledon homes on municipal sewers, Peel Region pays 60% of the invoice, up to $1,500 including tax, for a sanitary backwater valve installed after July 16, 2024 in a single, semi or townhome. It needs a licensed contractor, a Town building permit and a passed inspection. One rebate per home every 10 years.

Building permits

Caledon’s Building Services needs a permit for a finished basement or basement apartment, a deck more than 60 cm (24 in) above grade at any point, a shed of 15 m² (161 sq ft) or more, and any new or altered plumbing, heating or septic system. Replacing a furnace, water heater or air conditioner in a house, or swapping windows and doors in the same-size opening, doesn’t need one.

Water

Bolton, Mayfield West and the rest of southern Caledon get Lake Ontario water through Peel’s South Peel system, at 120 to 130 mg/L of hardness in 2025. Alton, Caledon Village, Caledon East, Palgrave, Cheltenham and Inglewood run on Peel-owned wells — Caledon Village measured 190 to 280 mg/L and Alton 320 to 330 mg/L, which Peel calls hard. Homes outside those systems are on private wells, which the owner maintains; Peel tests private well water for free.

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.
