Restoration Register

Before you apply: the free Ontario heritage grant checklist

Two printable pages to go through before you ask a contractor for a quote. Most refused applications fail on one of these points, not on the house.

Download the checklist (PDF)

What's in it

  • The one rule that costs owners the most: no work before written approval
  • A quick check that your property qualifies (designated, not just listed)
  • Six questions to ask the heritage planner before you get quotes
  • What to gather for the application
  • The ten reasons applications are refused or cut
  • What to keep after approval so the grant is actually paid

It's free, with no sign-up. Print it, or share it with a neighbour who's applying. To find your municipality's programme, start with heritage grants by municipality.
