Licensing & insurance in British Columbia
Trades in British Columbia operate under WorkSafeBC and SkilledTradesBC. Both must be confirmed — ask for the WorkSafeBC clearance letter and the journeyperson's TQ (Trade Qualification) where applicable.
Before any pro can quote on WiseTrades, our team telephones their insurer to confirm the policy is genuine and active, then validates identity documents independently. If you are hiring outside the platform, replicate that step yourself — the cost of one un-insured worksite injury wipes out a decade of contractor savings.
Before you book a fence contractor across Burnaby, BC
- Lock the materials specification before signing the quote — substitutions during the job invariably trade-up in the contractor's favour, not the homeowner's.
- Confirm permit-pulling responsibility in writing: Burnaby bylaws expect the contractor to file, but quote-text can quietly shift the duty onto the homeowner.
- Set a documented punch-list deadline post-handover; vague "we'll come back to fix that" promises evaporate once final payment clears.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a permit for a fence in Burnaby, BC?
- Most municipalities in British Columbia require a permit for fences over 6 ft tall. Setback rules from property lines, sight-triangle restrictions at corners, and pool-fencing bylaws also apply. Your contractor handles this in most cases.
- Are fence quotes on WiseTrades free?
- Yes — posting a fencing job in Burnaby, BC and getting multiple quotes is always free. Confirm the property line with your survey before any contractor digs — boundary disputes are expensive to fix.
- How does British Columbia moisture climate affect fence contractors?
- Coastal British Columbia is one of Canada's wettest regions, and improperly detailed flashing, building paper, or rain-screen assembly leads directly to leaky-condo-style failure. fence contractors approved on WiseTrades follow current best-practice rain-screen detail and provide moisture-detail documentation on request.
