Frequently asked questions

What works are considered 'minor'?
This depends on the municipality, but typically include interior renovations without affecting structure, door and window replacements, facade painting, and minor repairs. Works that affect structure, facade, or increase surface require a major permit.
Can I start work before getting the permit?
No. Starting work without a permit can result in fines and an order to stop. In the case of pre-notification, you may begin on the same day it is submitted in many cases.
