Frequently asked questions

What works are considered 'minor'?
It varies by municipality, but usually include interior renovations without affecting the structure, window and door replacements, facade painting, and small repairs. Works that affect the structure, facade, or increase the surface area require a major works license.
Can I start work before getting the permit?
No. Starting without a permit can result in fines and a cease and desist order. However, you may begin immediately upon submitting pre-notification in many cases.
