Union spokesman Marcel Wieder says the deal was reached late Friday afternoon with the help of a conciliator.
Wieder says the three-year deal includes a wage increase for the workers.
The association says priority will be given to buildings with only one elevator as the workers return to the job.
Members of the International Union of Elevator Constructors across Ontario had been on strike since May 1.
