Frequently asked questions
- Do painters in Ontario need a license?
- Painting is not a regulated trade in Ontario, but reputable painters carry WSIB/WCB clearance and Commercial General Liability insurance. Always ask for proof — splatter on a neighbour's car can get expensive without it.
- Will painters supply paint and prep materials?
- Most painters in Windsor, ON include paint, primer, and prep materials in their quote. Some homeowners supply their own paint to save 10–15% — confirm with your painter which approach they prefer.
- Does my painter pull the permit in Ontario?
- Most Ontario municipalities require the contractor to pull permits for any structural, plumbing, gas, or electrical work. Reputable painters on WiseTrades pull permits routinely and pass the cost transparently. Always confirm the permit number in writing before final payment — Tarion-warranty claims rely on it.
- Why is humidity-control critical for Windsor home work?
- Windsor's lower-Great-Lakes microclimate runs noticeably more humid than the rest of Ontario, which drives mould risk in poorly-ventilated assemblies. Windsor trades approved on WiseTrades commonly include vapour-barrier inspection and HRV-sizing review on renovation scopes.
