Frequently asked questions

What works are considered 'minor'?
It varies by municipality, but typically includes interior renovations without structural impact, window and door replacement, facade painting, and small repairs. Works that affect structure, facade, or increase surface area require a major works permit.
Can I start work before obtaining the permit?
No. Starting work without a permit can result in fines and an order to stop work. In the case of prior communication, you may start work on the same day of submission in many cases.
