Who is hiring

Masonry jobs in Ontario

16 building permits that need masons were pulled in Ontario over the 22 days to August 14, 2026. That is roughly 5 a week. Almost all of it is housing, led by 3+ unit - detached. That is owner-and-builder work, small tickets, fast turnarounds, and it is won on being reachable rather than on being cheapest.

How to work this list

  • A pulled permit means the money is committed and the schedule is being built. For masons that is weeks to months of warning before the call goes out.
  • On housing the applicant is usually the owner or a small builder, and there is no bid list to get onto. The whole game is being the first name they have when the trade is needed.
  • Sort by date, take the newest ten, and work them the same week. A permit from three months ago is already covered.
