Permit, Bylaws & Zoning for Toronto Homes
Toronto renovations often require multiple permits and compliance with zoning bylaws. Projects involving structural changes, additions, or secondary suites typically need building permits.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT GENERAL CONTRACTOR
How much does a general contractor cost in Toronto?
It depends on the project. For example, kitchen renovations usually cost between $30,000 and $60,000, and bathrooms range from $20,000 to $40,000. Finishing a basement starts around $50,000, especially if it’s being converted into a legal suite. Full-home renovations or additions can go well over $150,000. At renoWOW!, we provide itemized quotes so you understand exactly where your money is going—no surprises.
Do I need a permit for home renovations in Toronto?
Most major renovations do require permits, especially if you’re changing layouts, touching structural elements, or adding space. If the work doesn’t meet local zoning rules, you may also need approval from the Committee of Adjustment. We take care of the whole process—permits, drawings, inspections—so you don’t have to worry about the paperwork.
What should I look for when hiring a general contractor in Toronto?
Look for a contractor who is licensed, insured, and familiar with Toronto’s building codes and bylaws. Ask about WSIB coverage, past projects, and how they handle permits. At renoWOW!, we’ve been doing this for over 32 years and manage everything under one contract—from design to build—so you’re not left coordinating trades yourself.
How long does a typical home renovation take in Toronto?
Timelines vary. A bathroom might take 3–5 weeks, a kitchen around 6–8 weeks, and a full-home renovation can run 3–6 months depending on complexity. We give you a clear schedule upfront and assign a dedicated project manager to keep everything on track.
What’s the difference between a general contractor and a renovation company?
A general contractor oversees and coordinates the whole project, including all trades, permits, and inspections. A renovation company may focus more on design or specific areas. At renoWOW!, we’re both—so you get full project management, engineering, and interior design all under one roof.
Can I live in my house during a renovation?
In many cases, yes—especially for smaller projects like bathrooms or kitchens. But if it’s a full-home renovation, it might be safer and less stressful to move out temporarily. We always work in phases when needed and keep your space clean and safe if you’re staying in.
What areas does renoWOW! serve besides Toronto?
Along with Toronto, we also provide home renovation and addition services in Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, and Richmond Hill. If you’re in the GTA, there’s a good chance we can help—just reach out to confirm.
