Vetting a East Gwillimbury contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two East Gwillimbury references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.
Red flags on quotes
Verbal-only pricing, deposits above 20%, cash-only discounts, and unwillingness to itemise materials by brand are the top four. Any one is a pass.
What a defensible quote looks like
Written scope with photos, itemised labour + materials, 30-day validity, WSIB and liability certificate attached, and named workmanship warranty (5 years is the current bar for wett inspection).
Common questions
How long does wett inspection take in East Gwillimbury?

Do you need a permit for wett inspection in East Gwillimbury?

When's the best time of year for wett inspection in East Gwillimbury?
Late September through mid-November with East Gwillimbury averaging 160cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.

What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.

Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Is wett inspection covered by home insurance in East Gwillimbury?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
