Home maintenance visits in Toronto and the GTA
Handyman on the Go is a handyman service in Toronto and the GTA that works through your list of small jobs in one visit, and handles move-in and move-out fixes for homes, condos and rentals.
Most homes have a running list of small jobs: a loose towel bar, a cabinet door out of line, a smoke alarm that needs new batteries. A maintenance visit takes care of the whole list at once.
Send your list with photos and we will plan the visit around it, so the right tools and parts come along.
What’s included
Several small jobs in one visit
Combine repairs, installations and adjustments from anywhere in the home into one visit. Typical lists mix a few minutes of tightening and adjusting with a couple of larger jobs.
Move-in and move-out fixes
Holes patched and touched up, furniture assembled, curtain rods and blinds fitted, locks changed and small repairs done, so a home is ready to live in, list for sale or hand back to a landlord.
Typical jobs
- A Saturday list: towel bar, cabinet door, sticking window, two pictures
- Patching and touching up walls when moving out of a rental
- Changing locks and fitting blinds after moving in
- Replacing smoke and carbon monoxide alarm batteries and testing the alarms
- Getting a home ready to list for sale
What isn’t included
- Lawn mowing and grass cutting.
- Jobs that need a licensed trade. See what we don’t do.
How to prepare for the visit
- Write the list in order of priority, with photos where they help.
- Gather any parts, hardware or paint you already have for the jobs on the list.
- For condos, book the service elevator and visitor parking if your building needs it.
- Let us know about anything that needs special care, such as antique furniture or delicate finishes.
Questions about home maintenance
How should I write my list?
One line per job, with the room and a short description, for example “Kitchen: cabinet door beside fridge sags”. Photos help plan time, parts and tools.
Which home safety checks are worth doing every year?
Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms monthly and replace batteries at least once a year, check that exterior doors close and lock properly, and look for drafts around windows and doors before the heating season.
