Know your pro: General Contractors

From qualifications to project timelines, get the background you need to hire with confidence.

Licensing and Safety Requirements

Licensing: In Ontario, general contractors are not required to have a provincial license, but they must comply with local building codes and regulations. Always verify that they have the necessary permits to undertake your project.
Insurance: Ensure the contractor has liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. This protects you from liability in case of accidents or damages during the project.
Safety Records: Check the contractor's safety records and ask about their safety protocols on site. A good safety record indicates a responsible and compliant contractor.
Building Codes: The contractor should be familiar with Ontario Building Code requirements, which ensure that construction work meets safety and performance standards.

Qualifications and Reputation

Experience: Look for a contractor with extensive experience in the type of renovation you are planning. Experienced contractors are more likely to deliver quality work.
References: Ask for and check references from past clients. This will give you insight into the contractor's work quality and reliability.
Certifications: While not mandatory, certifications from recognized industry organizations can indicate a higher level of professionalism and expertise.
Reputation: Consider the contractor's reputation in the community. A reputable contractor is likely to provide reliable and high-quality service.

Costs and Project Planning

Estimates: Obtain detailed written estimates from several contractors before making a decision. Compare the costs, timelines, and materials proposed.
Contract: Ensure you have a clear and detailed contract that outlines the scope of work, payment schedule, timelines, and responsibilities of each party.
Budget Management: Discuss how changes to the project will be handled, including the process for approving additional costs.
Payment Terms: Be wary of contractors who demand a large down payment upfront. Progressive payments tied to project milestones are standard practice.

Homeowners' Interview Questions: General Contractors in Ontario

Qualifications & Experience

Ensure the contractor holds a valid license and insurance to protect against liabilities and ensure compliance with local regulations.

How many years have you been in business?

Will you obtain the necessary permits?

Ensuring the contractor handles permits helps avoid legal issues and ensures compliance with local building codes.
