Installing a Permeable Driveway Could Qualify You for Tax Credits, Lower Stormwater Fees, and More!

Installing a Permeable Driveway Could Qualify You for Tax Credits and Lower Stormwater Fees

 

Did you know, that by installing a permeable driveway, you may be eligible to earn tax incentives or reduce your stormwater fees, and help the environment all at once? With permeable driveways becoming more popular, homeowners are discovering just how beneficial these sustainable surfaces can be for the planet – but with some help for their wallets also. Let’s explore how a permeable driveway could be your next best investment!

 

Why Go Permeable?

Permeable driveways are designed to allow rainwater to seep back into the ground rather than flowing into storm drains to cause flooding. This simple, but fundamental change, eliminates stormwater runoff, helping preventing local flooding and protecting waterways; In fact, permeable driveways benefit local water systems by reducing pollutants and pressure on city stormwater infrastructure.

Tax Incentives and Rebates You Can’t Miss

 Homeowners across many cities may now qualify for tax credits and rebates for installing eco-friendly driveways. Some cities in Ontario, like Kitchener, Mississauga and Ottawa, offer rebates or utility fee credits of up to 50% of project costs, depending on water diversion and filtration levels.

Our team here at DreamPave.ca can help homeowners in Toronto, GTA, Kitchener, Mississauga and Muskoka navigate these incentives to make eco-friendly upgrades both affordable and accessible.

 
 

3 Steps to Get Started with a Permeable Driveway

Step 1: Research Local Incentives 

Many municipalities in Ontario offer financial incentives for permeable driveways. Check your local city website to find out what specific rebates or credits you might be eligible for in the Toronto area.

Step 2: Choose the Right Material 

Permeable driveways come in a variety of materials and thus styles— permeable pavers, and plastic grids are common options. However, resin bound aggregate gravel is an excellent option. Dream Pave can guide you in selecting the material that best matches your home’s aesthetic and functional needs while helping you maximize your eligibility for local rebates.

Step 3: Apply for Rebates 

Once your driveway is installed, document your project and apply for local tax credits or rebates to secure your savings.

 

The Bigger Picture: Environmental and Financial Gains

Switching to permeable driveways is a win-win for homeowners, property owners and communities alike. By reducing runoff, these driveways lessen the impact on local stormwater systems, prevent water pollution, and even mitigate the urban heat island effect. Plus, homes with sustainable features like permeable driveways can see an increase in property value. It’s not just an investment in your home; it’s an investment in your community’s future.
