Working hours

Our contractor’s normal working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. These hours are consistent with the local municipality’s bylaws. We understand this may cause some inconvenience, but a shorter working day would mean the project would take longer to complete.

Traffic, driveway and parking control

• All roads within the project limits will always remain open to traffic however we may need to temporarily reduce traffic to a single lane during some portions of the work.
• Due to construction activities, we may need to block your driveway for a short time. We will contact you before we do this to arrange for the best time and for alternate access, if needed.
• On-street parking will be reduced during construction.

Irrigation or sprinkler systems

Please tell the inspector if you have underground irrigation or a sprinkler system outside your property line.

Trees

If tree branches within the right-of-way interfere with construction, the contractor will have the trees pruned before equipment enters the drip line of the tree.

Vibrations

You may feel slight vibrations from the construction work.

Replacing and taking care of your sod

• The contractor will replace disturbed sod after completion of construction activities on the site.
• You can help the sod to stay healthy by watering it for one hour in the early morning, two or three times a week. This is especially important in hot or dry weather.
• We will replace your sod as soon as we can, but there may be a short delay.

Project updates

• The Region of Peel will always let you know if there are any major changes to the plans.
• We will try to disturb you as little as possible.
