Project Hub

Keep your project together.

Project Hub organizes guidance, your project path, preparation, questions, and next steps you choose. It is distinct from an optional private Project File, which is a saved working record you can return to later. Meaningful updates belong here once a project is underway — not by forcing you back through all of StepCheck. Today this Hub can stay on this device; a signed-in private save is a later approved step.

Project Hub

About this page

This is your living Project Hub for organized guidance, preparation, and resident-chosen next steps. It is not the same as an optional private Project File. Open one section at a time from the index. Use Create Pro Handoff Report when you want a short printable brief — professionals do not receive live access automatically. Later changes should update only affected project checks and must never invent a concern from unrelated information.

Current section

Overview

Private by default. Project Hub keeps guidance and preparation on this device unless you choose to share. An optional private Project File is a separate saved working record. Right now it stays on this device only. Nothing is shared with a professional until you choose to share it. StepCheck does not create a resident account by itself.

What should I do next

Project path

A source-backed sequence for what is required now, what depends on your property, what to prepare, and what happens after a permit — when your answers and location support it.

Your project check tasks

Saved from your StepCheck answers. Build Path explains each check first. Official links appear only when confirmation with an authority may be needed.

Statuses are your notes on this device only — not approvals, scores, or authority decisions.

Path: StepCheck → Summary “Your project checks” → Project Hub Project path → Who May Help → Pro Handoff Report (you choose what to share).

Permits & property

Only items that match your project type and answers — not a full municipal list.

Use the groups below to separate known facts from items that still need confirmation or an official decision.

Known

Resident-provided or authoritative stored facts shown so far.

Check with the city

Site logistics (if work affects the street or neighbours)

Worth confirming

Questions or conditions your answers suggest for further checking.

Cost, timing, and official research

Permits and approvals

Possible permits, inspections, and department steps to confirm.

Confirm with authority

Costs and fees

Permit fees, drawings, trades, materials, disposal, and staging.

Use official fee schedules

Timing and wait times

Review timing, quotes, inspections, and reminders.

Bylaw and source research

Official Ontario, Halton Region, and municipal pages for your area — see Project path tasks and Official sources.

Sharing and visibility

Project visibility & input accuracy

Your Project Hub stays on this device unless you post it. Control who can see your project details here. You can confirm that your project details are accurate to the best of your knowledge — this is not a review by Build Path and does not verify any professional.
