Do you take on small jobs?
Yes. Small repairs and installations are everyday handyman work, and several small jobs can be done in one visit, such as a loose towel bar, a sticking door and a dripping faucet.
Do you work in condos and apartments?
Yes. We work in condos and apartments as well as houses and townhouses. If your building needs the service elevator or visitor parking booked, please arrange it before the visit.
Which areas do you serve?
We mainly serve the Greater Toronto Area: the City of Toronto and the regions of Peel, York, Durham and Halton. That includes Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Newmarket, Aurora, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Oakville, Burlington and Milton. If you’re nearby but outside these areas, email us to check we can reach you.
Is there anything you don’t do?
We don’t offer lawn mowing or grass cutting. We also don’t take on jobs that need a licensed trade: gas work, new plumbing lines, electrical panel or circuit work, and any other electrical work, including replacing light fixtures. For those, we suggest hiring a licensed electrical contractor, gas technician or plumber.
