What to know about Custom metalwork
Custom metalwork covers railings, gates, stair stringers, privacy and decorative panels, window grilles, brackets and other pieces that a metal fabricator designs, builds in a shop and installs at your home. Unlike kits, each piece is made for one particular opening, stair or view, so the job starts with a careful site measure and ends with a fitting on site.

Metalwork permits in Ontario
Some metalwork 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 Ontario
General contracting and renovation
Renovating an existing home generally doesn’t require an HCRA builder licence: HCRA says renovations or upgrades typically don’t make a home “new”. Ontario advises checking references, WSIB coverage and trade certificates before you hire.

New-home building and warranty
All new-home builders and sellers must be licensed by the HCRA, and new homes come with warranty coverage backed by Tarion.

Common metalwork 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.
