Before you hire a concrete contractor in Ontario

No provincial trade licence is required for flatwork. Structural concrete may require engineered drawings and a building permit.

General liability insurance and WSIB clearance

Standard checks for any trade working on your property.

Building permit, where applicable

Generally not required to replace an existing driveway. Usually required for structural elements, retaining walls above a certain height, and anything supporting a building.

Verify with: Your municipal building department.

Municipal driveway or curb-cut approval

Changing a driveway width or its connection to the road normally requires approval, and municipalities do enforce this.

Locate request before excavation

Ontario law requires underground utility locates before digging. The contractor should be arranging this through Ontario One Call, at no cost.

Verify with: Ontario One Call coordinates utility locates province-wide.

Questions worth asking

  • How deep is the granular base, and will it be compacted in lifts?
  • What concrete strength are you specifying, and is it air-entrained? (Air entrainment is what resists freeze-thaw damage.)
  • What reinforcement is included - rebar, mesh, or fibre?
  • Where will control joints go and how deep will they be cut?
  • How is the slope set so water drains away from the house?
