Please note that the HCRA does not have the authority to order a builder to compensate or pay damages to a complainant. These are matters that a new home buyer may wish to discuss with a lawyer.

If you have concerns about potential defects with your new home, please direct your inquiries to Tarion. For more information on your new home’s warranty and how to submit a claim, please visit Tarion.com or call 1-877-9-TARION (1-877-982-7466).
If you believe that a builder or vendor of a new home is not licensed or has not enrolled a new home with Tarion, please complete this illegal builder complaint form. If you are unsure about the status of a builder or vendor, you can check on the Ontario Builder Directory. The Builder Directory has up-to-date information about all builders and vendors in Ontario. Regardless of licensing status, you may still choose to file a complaint to the HCRA.
It is important that you include as much information as possible to describe your concern. You are also encouraged to attach additional information or documents to support your concern.
