It's YOUR HOME, YOUR PROPERTY and YOU CAN BUILD WHAT YOU WANT ,HOW YOU WANT , WHERE YOU WANT! WRONG!!

Unfortunately the Ontario building code and city zoning come into play. This is not a bad thing. You might think what is hindering your effort to build a garage or shed also protects you from others erecting buildings around you that are illegal. Being legal is really not a hassle, in most cases the city zoning by-laws won't interfere with your plans and the Ontario building code ensures that your building is erected properly. Permits average from $50 to $150 which is a small price to pay for peace of mind. Friends and inexperienced contractors might over-look these regulations which could lead to costly alterations or a total demolition. Ultimately it is the property owner that is responsible for obtaining the proper permits and zoning setbacks.
