Do I have to accept every job?

No. Declining is always free. Accepting and then cancelling is what costs you — it affects your score, and your score decides how often you are offered work.

What customers see

Building permits

Georgina needs a building permit to finish a basement or turn a basement room into a bedroom, for any deck attached to the house or a detached deck more than 0.6 m (2 ft) above grade, and for a detached shed over 15 m² (161 sq ft). A boundary fence that does not enclose a pool, re-shingling with no structural work, and replacing plumbing fixtures without altering the plumbing need none; new plumbing and heating or air-conditioning work do.

Water

Georgina’s municipal water comes from Lake Simcoe, and measured 144 mg/L of hardness in Georgina and 150 mg/L in Keswick in the second quarter of 2026 — “hard” on York Region’s scale, enough to scale fixtures and water heaters.

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.
