Assembly and installation in Toronto and the GTA
Handyman on the Go is a handyman service in Toronto and the GTA that assembles furniture and mounts TVs, shelves, blinds, mirrors, artwork and plug-in smart devices in houses, condos and apartments.
Flat-pack furniture, a new TV, shelves that need to hold real weight, blinds for every window: these are jobs that go faster and end up more secure with the right tools and fixings.
Tell us what you have and where it needs to go, and add a photo of the wall if you can. Knowing the wall type helps plan the right fixings before the visit.
What’s included
Furniture assembly
Beds, wardrobes, desks, dressers and storage units, assembled to the manufacturer’s instructions. Tall pieces can be secured to the wall at the same visit.

Floating shelves, bracket shelves, closet systems and garage storage, with fixings chosen for the wall and for what the shelves will hold.
Blinds and curtain rods
Roller blinds, cellular shades, venetian blinds, curtain rods and tracks, inside or outside the window frame. Brackets are lined up so a row of windows reads as one clean line.
Mirrors and artwork
Heavy mirrors, framed art, gallery walls and coat racks, hung with hardware matched to the weight and the wall. Gallery layouts can be marked out first so you can see the spacing before anything goes up.
Plug-in and battery smart devices
Battery-powered or plug-in video doorbells, security cameras and similar devices, mounted where you want them.

How to prepare for the visit
- Keep furniture boxes unopened if you can, so no parts or hardware go missing.
- Clear a working area about the size of the finished piece, plus room to move around it.
- Decide where each item goes. For TVs and shelves, a strip of painter’s tape on the wall is a helpful guide.
- Have mounts, brackets and the device’s app ready, along with your Wi-Fi password for smart devices.
Questions about assembly and installation
What kinds of walls can things be mounted on?
Drywall, plaster, brick, concrete and tile can all take a mount when the right fixing is used. On drywall, heavy items go into studs or into anchors rated for the weight. Mention the wall type in your request so the right hardware is planned.
Can several items be assembled or mounted in one visit?
Yes. List everything in one quote request, with a photo of each item and where it needs to go, so the visit can be planned for all of it.
