What is structural construction, and why is it important?

Structural construction involves reinforcing or modifying key load-bearing elements of your home or any other building, such as foundations, beams, and walls. This is necessary for safety, long-term stability, and to prepare for future repairs or renovations.

How do I know if my home needs structural work?

Often, you can spot the signs yourself. Take a quick look around, especially in the basement, and check for wall cracks, sagging floors, or moisture buildup. If you’re unsure, our team can do a professional structural assessment to check your home’s condition.

Are structural construction projects covered under building permits in Toronto?

Yes. Any structural work, especially foundation changes or wall removal, requires proper permits. At WillFix, we handle all the drawings and paperwork to make sure your project fully complies with local regulations .

Is structural construction only for older homes?

Not always. While many older homes need reinforcement, newer homes might also require structural changes for repairs, additions, or layout updates. Every property is different.

Will I need to move out during the construction?

In most cases, you can stay in your home, though it might not be the most comfortable due to noise and disruption. If possible, it’s a good idea to stay elsewhere while the work is being done.
