What to know about Outdoor structures
Outdoor structures give a yard shelter and purpose: a shed for storage, a gazebo or pavilion for shade and dining, a pergola over the patio, a pool house or cabana for changing and storing pool gear, a carport for the car and a playhouse for the kids. Outdoor living contractors design and build them, from prefab kits set on a prepared base to custom buildings with power, plumbing and a finished interior.

- Make sure electrical and gas work for heaters, pumps and hot tubs is done by licensed trades.
- Get a written quote that covers excavation, backfill, equipment, decking and site restoration.

Outdoor structure permits in Alberta
Some outdoor structure work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.
Licensing in Alberta
Consumer protection
A contracting business that negotiates or concludes a contract with you in person away from its place of business and takes money before all the work on your home is done needs a prepaid contracting licence.

Common outdoor structure questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
