What to know about Fire & water damage renovations
Fire and water damage renovation is the rebuild that comes after restoration. Once the restoration crew has made the house safe, pulled out what was ruined and dried or deodorized what remains, the affected rooms are often down to studs, subfloor and bare joists. A renovation contractor then puts the home back together: framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinets, fixtures, trim and paint, along with the electrical, plumbing and ventilation work that was damaged or removed.

How to choose renovation contractors in Whitby
- Look for a contractor who has finished projects similar in size and type to yours, and ask to see them.
- Get a written contract with the scope, the payment schedule, the timeline and how changes will be priced.
- Ask who will manage the job day to day and how often you'll get updates.
- Check that they carry liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage, and that their trades are licensed where required.
- Compare quotes on the same scope, and ask what each one leaves out.
- For structural changes, make sure an engineer or designer is involved where needed.
Questions to ask renovation contractors before you hire
- Who will pull the permits, and who will be there for inspections?
- Which parts of the job will you do yourselves, and which will go to subcontractors?
- How do you handle change orders and unexpected problems once walls are open?
- What is the payment schedule, and what is each payment tied to?
- Can you show me proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage?
- What warranty do you offer on your workmanship, and is it in writing?
- Can I speak with a few of your recent clients?
Damage repair permits in Ontario
Some damage repair 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.

Common damage repair 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.
