Licensing & insurance in Ontario
Most trades in Ontario operate under provincial regulations including WSIB (Workplace Safety & Insurance Board) coverage and Commercial General Liability insurance. Always confirm both before hiring.
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 Richmond Hill, ON
- 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: Richmond Hill 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.
