1. Confirm eligibility.

Check location, ownership, property type, work status, and likely project type before booking work.

2. Request grant-ready quotes.

Ask contractors to separate materials, labour, permits, and each device so the City can review eligible costs.

3. Submit before work starts.

Do not cut concrete, install equipment, or begin related construction until the City provides written approval.

4. Complete permits and inspections.

Your contractor path should account for plumbing or building permits and final inspection requirements.

5. Keep reimbursement documents organized.

Save the approval, invoice, payment proof, permit details, and inspection records.
