Hiring a contractor in St Catharines: what to know

Whether you need a general contractor to manage a full renovation in St Catharines or a specialist for a single trade, here is what shapes the job and the price locally.

Permits

Structural, plumbing and electrical work in St Catharines typically needs a building permit from the municipality, and electrical work must be filed with the ESA. A good contractor prices this in rather than leaving it to you.

Taxes

Ontario quotes include 13% HST, so add that to the ranges above when you budget.

New-build coverage

Major additions can fall under Ontario new-home warranty rules; ask your contractor whether your project qualifies.

Climate

Cold winters and humid summers in St Catharines put a premium on insulation, air sealing and moisture control, which is worth spending on rather than cutting.
