Building, Renovation and Repair

If you are considering a building or renovation project this should be your first stop.

Permits and inspections protect you and the community. In our city, this province and the country, there are codes in place to ensure work meets an acceptable standard. These are in place to make sure:

• that the structures in your property are adequate for the design
• that the electrical wiring is safe from the service mast to the outlet
• that the plumbing system safely delivers water and removes wastes
• and that your home provides adequate protection from weather

This service is not just for your home, but the stores you shop in, the schools your children attend, the theatres you visit and all buildings in the city.
