Whitby Concrete Contractor · Reformity Inc.Concrete & Asphalt Driveways in Whitby
Replacing a worn driveway in Whitby is simpler than widening one. Driveway reconstruction is exempt from the Town's Site Alteration By-law, so tearing out old asphalt and pouring concrete on the same footprint needs no site alteration permit. The exception is the Werden's Plan and Brooklin heritage districts, where re-paving skips the heritage permit only with the same material and dimensions — asphalt to asphalt, concrete to concrete — so switching from asphalt to concrete there needs a heritage permit first.

Concrete & Asphalt permits in Whitby
Rebuilding a driveway on its existing footprint needs no site alteration permit, but widening onto the boulevard needs a curb cut permit, and changing the material or size in the Brooklin or Werden's Plan districts needs a heritage permit, so we prepare the site sketch and drawings and handle those applications.

Driveway widening
The boulevard at the end of your driveway is Town land, so widening onto it needs a curb cut permit, and the Town or its agent cuts the curb, paid in advance. The driveway must then be hard-surfaced to zoning rules.
Town of Whitby: curb cut application (PDF)Front-yard paving
For a house with a garage, Whitby's zoning caps the driveway at the garage-door width plus 2.0 m (max 7.5 m; 9.0 m for three-car garages) if 40% of the front yard stays landscaped; some zones differ. Paving beside it that could park a car counts as driveway, and front-yard parking is driveway-only.
Whitby Zoning By-law 2585, s.6A (PDF)Site alteration & grading
Whitby's Site Alteration By-law (7425-18) and its guideline require a Town permit to change grade by more than 0.15 m or to bring in or haul away fill. Pool installs, driveway reconstruction and topsoil for lawns and gardens are exempt, but exempt work still can't make a neighbour's drainage worse.

Brooklin and Werden's Plan (downtown) are Heritage Conservation Districts, where most exterior changes need a heritage permit (currently no fee). The 2026 district plans exempt rear-yard fences (not corner lots), rear decks under one storey, patios and rear landscaping if no trees come down, and re-paving with the same material and size.

Whitby Concrete & Asphalt FAQ
Quick answers.
Usually not if you rebuild it on the same footprint: driveway reconstruction is exempt from the Site Alteration By-law. Widening onto the Town boulevard needs a curb cut permit, and in the Brooklin or Werden's Plan heritage districts re-paving skips the heritage permit only with the same material and dimensions, such as asphalt to asphalt.
For a house with a garage, Whitby's zoning caps the driveway at the garage-door width plus 2.0 m (max 7.5 m; 9.0 m for three-car garages) if 40% of the front yard stays landscaped; some zones differ. Paving beside it that could park a car counts as driveway, and front-yard parking is driveway-only.
