Overview
Choosing a Contractor, a three-page guide from the City of Toronto's Affordable Housing Office, Housing Improvement Programs, written for homeowners in the Toronto Renovates program. It sets out four steps: finding reputable companies, references and qualifications, Toronto Renovates considerations for reviewing quotations, and signing a contract, with notes on trades licences, insurance, HST numbers and the ten-day cooling off period under the Ontario Consumer Protection Act. The City links it from its Eco-Roof Incentive Program page.
