Renovating in Cornwall & SDG, town by town

Brockville
Brockville has been building houses longer than almost anywhere in Ontario — it was incorporated in 1832 — and its downtown blocks of stone and brick reflect nearly two centuries of prosperity on the St.

Building permits in Cornwall & SDG
In Ontario, building permits are issued by the local municipality, not the region, so a basement apartment in one town can follow a different process from the same project a few kilometres away. Structural changes, additions, new or relocated plumbing, most basement finishing and second units usually need a permit under the Ontario Building Code; cosmetic work like painting, flooring or cabinet refacing usually doesn't.
Start with the building department for your municipality: Cornwall or Brockville. Every quote we send flags whether drawings and a permit application are likely to be part of the job.
