Single-Trade Services
Welcome

Information for Licensed,
Individual Trade Specialists

Please Note: The following information is provided exclusively for single trades.
If you are a General Contractor please view our General Contracting Information.

The Renovation Co-op offers 2 separate programs for both
Individual Trades and Single-Trade Companies:

1-Individual Tradespersons

As an important support feature for its Member-General Contractors, The Renovation Co-op has developed a private, back-end system that gives quick access to local, vetted single-trade services. These professional sub-trade specialists are available exclusively to the Co-op’s own contractors for “Emergency “fill-in” work and/or the development of a more long-term relationship between both parties.

All Co-op member-Contractors are free to access and hire such trades regardless of whether they are hired for a project assigned to the contractor by The Renovation Co-op, or for the contractor’s own project.

When a Member-Contractor needs an essential, emergency sub-trade (Electrician, plumber, roofer, etc.) for a project that has already started, or is seeking a more permanent sub-trade for future work, the contractor can immediately access a Co-op-vetted Trade Specialist based on the project’s postal code, or from any area throughout the GTA.

To apply for an exclusive area listing for your specific type of Trade Service within the GTA and/or surrounding areas, please fill out the the Application Form below.

2-Single-Trade Companies

Direct Access is an exclusive area leasing system and is more suitable for small-to-mid-sized, Single-Trade Companies. This service is available to the general public as part of our main website, WeRenovate.com.

Direct Access partners are invited to join the Renovation Co-op as it slowly expands locally, regionally and across Canada.

In coordination with The Renovation Co-op’s expansion of its geographical reach through measured increases of Radio & Billboard advertising (see below), all future marketing campaigns will include specifically-marketed Single-Trade Services that are offered through Direct Access (listen to sample Radio Commercials below).

The Renovation Co-op

Q & A

Q- What exactly is The Renovation Co-op?

A-The Co-op is a closed, Managed Network of vetted General Contractors, Architectural Specialists, Single-Trade Service Companies and Individual Trade Specialists

Registered clients have unlimited, free access to a wide variety of renovation-related services, along with a select team of all Co-op-Approved Professional Services such as Mortgage Financing and Real Estate Services, along with Personal Investment Services.

Q- Is the Co-op an Internet Classified Advertising Company?

A- Absolutely not! The Renovation Co-op is neither an advertising company nor a referral company. It produces and airs its own mass-market advertising (Radio Commercials, Billboards, etc.), but none of its marketing or advertising campaigns refer to any specific, member-partners.

Instead, all advertising strictly promotes The Renovation Co-op itself, with each radio commercial or billboard targeting a specific type of service offered under its “umbrella” system.

1-Clients are registered directly into The Renovation Co-op.

2-Once the client has initially registered, the Co-op performs its own intake and screening process to determine the exact type and level of service the client is seeking and assigns the client to a specific member-partner. Note: The permanent “assignment” of our registered client to the member is limited to the member’s stated service(s) only.

3-If the request is for Architectural Services, the client is then assigned to a specific member-Architectural Design Specialist.

4-If the request is for General Contracting,  the client is assigned to a specific member-General Contractor.

Sales Support

For all Architectural & General Contracting inquiries, The Co-op reviews the details of the final estimate with the client online through its proprietary Renovation Management Platform.

By providing its member-contractors with private access to a an exclusive pool of Co-op-vetted, Single Tradespersons, the Co-op helps its contractors achieve a higher level of production capacity, as well as help ensure that no project becomes interrupted due to a sudden temporary (or permanent) loss of an essential sub-trade.
