Where you live decides who reviews the drawings, what the fee is, and which online system the application goes through. Every city page carries the details, cited to the municipality's own site. | Town | Building department | Also covers | | --- | --- | --- | | [Hamilton](https://905trades.ca/areas/hamilton/) | City of Hamilton Building Division, 905-546-2720 | Ancaster, Dundas, Waterdown, Binbrook, Flamborough, Glanbrook | | [Stoney Creek](https://905trades.ca/areas/stoney-creek/) | City of Hamilton Building Division, 905-546-2720 | Winona, Fruitland | | [Burlington](https://905trades.ca/areas/burlington/) | City of Burlington Building Department, 905-335-7731 | Aldershot | | [Grimsby](https://905trades.ca/areas/grimsby/) | Town of Grimsby Building Division, 905-309-2022 | Beamsville is in the Town of Lincoln; ask which side of the line you are on | | [Oakville](https://905trades.ca/areas/oakville/) | Town of Oakville, ServiceOakville 905-845-6601 | Bronte, Glen Abbey | Phone numbers as published on each municipality's building permit page, read 30 August 2026: [City of Hamilton](https://www.hamilton.ca/build-invest-grow/construction-renovation/residential-building-renovation/building-permit), [City of Burlington](https://www.burlington.ca/en/building-and-renovating/building-permits.aspx), [Town of Grimsby](https://www.grimsby.ca/build-and-invest/building-division/applying-for-a-building-permit/), [Town of Oakville](https://www.oakville.ca/home-environment/building-renovations/building-permits-inspections/building-permits/). ## Communities covered under Hamilton Ancaster, Dundas, Waterdown, Binbrook, Flamborough and Glanbrook are part of the City of Hamilton. They share the same Building Division, the same permit list and the same fee schedule, so they do not get separate pages here; the [Hamilton page](https://905trades.ca/areas/hamilton/) is theirs. The same is true of Stoney Creek, which has its own page only because it is a distinct service area for our partners: it is the closest part of Hamilton to our Grimsby-based garage door partner and to the flooring partner's eastern end. ## Why only five towns A service-area page that no partner actually serves is a page that generates a request we cannot fill. The list grows when a partner's coverage does, or when a new partner joins whose base opens a new town. Milton, St. Catharines and the rest of Niagara are the obvious next additions and are not here yet for that reason. ## Not sure which town you are in Pick the closest one on the request form. Every request comes to us as well as to the partner, and if the town is a borderline case, such as the Grimsby and Beamsville line or the Burlington and Waterdown line, we sort out who goes before anyone calls you. Flooring: all five towns. Garage doors: all five. Renovations: all five. Carpet and upholstery cleaning: Hamilton, Stoney Creek, Burlington and Grimsby. 905 Trades is paid a referral fee by the contractors it introduces. It does not change your price.
