Key considerations for Markham
Bathroom renovations involving plumbing relocation, electrical work, or structural changes require a permit.
Adding a new bathroom to the home requires a permit for the rough-in plumbing and electrical.
Replacing fixtures in the same location (toilet, sink, tub) without changing rough-in typically does not require a permit.
Wet area waterproofing to the OBC standard is required in shower and tub surrounds.
Markham has its own Zoning By-law 177-96 with area-specific schedules.
