Bathroom Renovation Permit project completed in Toronto - permit drawings by PermitsHub
What it covers

Scope of service.

Bathroom renovations in Toronto require a building permit when you're moving or adding plumbing fixtures, relocating walls, upgrading electrical systems, or making structural changes. The City of Toronto requires permits to ensure work meets the Ontario Building Code, particularly for waterproofing, ventilation, and safe electrical installations in wet areas. PermitsHub handles the entire permit process for your bathroom renovation. We prepare drawings showing existing and proposed layouts, coordinate with your contractor to document plumbing and electrical changes, submit applications to Toronto Building, and respond to any review comments. Most bathroom renovation permits involve plumbing and electrical components, which require licensed trades to pull separate permits after the building permit is issued.

  • Moving or adding sinks, toilets, showers, or bathtubs
  • Relocating or removing walls to expand bathroom space
  • Installing new electrical outlets, lighting, or exhaust fans
  • Upgrading plumbing supply lines or drain waste vent systems
  • Structural changes including floor reinforcement or joist modifications
  • Waterproofing details for shower enclosures and wet areas

Who needs this

You need this permit if you're moving plumbing fixtures, removing or adding walls, upgrading electrical systems beyond simple replacements, or making any structural changes to your bathroom.
