Building and renovating in Hamilton
Hamilton has some of the oldest housing in the region: brick homes from the early 1900s in the lower city, Kirkendall and Westdale, and post-war bungalows on the Mountain. Older homes often need structural repairs, underpinning, new wiring and plumbing, and many owners are adding legal basement units.
Ontario allows up to three units on most serviced residential lots (the main house plus two more), but each unit still needs a building permit and has to meet the Ontario Building Code for fire separation, exits and ceiling height. Permits come from the City of Hamilton, and properties near the Niagara Escarpment or the creeks that cut through it can need a Hamilton Conservation Authority permit.
