About GTA Trades Daily
GTA Trades Daily is Toronto's independent publication for the trades industry. We exist to help homeowners across the Greater Toronto Area make smarter decisions when hiring contractors — and to help honest, skilled tradespeople grow their businesses through visibility, trust, and verified leads.
Our Mission
The trades industry in the GTA is massive — billions of dollars flow through plumbing, HVAC, electrical, roofing, and renovation projects every year. But for homeowners, hiring a contractor is still a gamble. Unlicensed operators undercut legitimate businesses. Pricing is opaque. Reviews are scattered across a dozen platforms.
We built GTA Trades Daily to fix that. Every contractor in our directory is categorized, reviewed, and rated by real homeowners. Our articles cover real pricing data, licensing requirements, and seasonal advice specific to the GTA market. Our quote-matching system connects homeowners with verified professionals — not random names from a search engine.
