When you think of a renovation in Ahuntsic-Cartierville, you should always think about obtaining a permit before starting. It is necessary to obtain a permit before undertaking any construction work, interior or exterior renovations or the demolition of a building. By issuing a permit, the city can verify that the work complies with the regulations in force in order to ensure public safety and quality of life.


The first step is to contact the city for information about your project and visit your city's website to find out if you need a permit.


No permit is required to perform certain minor maintenance, minor repair or simple replacement work that does not affect public safety, structure or otherwise. If your building is part of the heritage, other regulations may apply.


It is important to contact the City of Ahuntsic-Cartierville before undertaking ANY WORK, in order to be certain of what you have started is really part of this list: City of Ahuntsic-Cartierville
