The small jobs that are too big to ignore and too small to get a specialist excited about — TV mounts, furniture assembly, drywall patches, fixture swaps, door and window adjustments, and full honey-do lists done in one visit.
Every homeowner ends up with a list: a door that sticks, a towel bar that fell off, a TV that's still leaning against the wall six months after you bought it. Individually, none of it is worth calling a specialist for. Together, it's an afternoon for someone who knows what they're doing. That's the whole business — bring the list, we bring the visit.
Wall-mounted TVs done properly (studs, not drywall anchors alone) and flat-pack furniture assembled without the leftover-screws anxiety.
Small holes, dents and scuffs patched and touched up so they actually blend in, not just get covered.
Light fixtures, ceiling fans, faucets, towel bars, shelving, blinds and curtain rods — installed level and secure.
Sticking doors, misaligned latches, drafty windows and squeaky hinges — usually a 20-minute fix once someone's actually there.
Loose gutters, siding fixes and small exterior repairs that don't need a full specialist crew.
Bundle everything above into one visit — most lists of 5–10 small jobs get done in a single afternoon.
Older homes, more of these jobs. Guelph's older neighbourhoods (the core, St. George's Park, Exhibition Park) have a lot of original doors, trim and hardware that need occasional adjustment — normal wear, not something wrong with the house.
One visit beats five specialists. Calling a plumber for a towel bar, an electrician for a ceiling fan and a carpenter for a sticky door means three service calls and three minimums. A handyman visit bundles all of it into one.
Bring the list, not just one job. The most efficient booking is a list, not a single item — if you've got five small things piling up, batch them into one visit instead of calling five separate times.
We're built for small jobs, but very short visits (one 10-minute fix) may have a minimum call-out. Bundle a few items into one visit and it's more efficient for everyone — tell us your list when you request a quote.
Depends on the job — some items are flat-rate, others are hourly with a written estimate first. You'll know the number before anything starts.
Often, depending on the list and current bookings — request a quote and we'll tell you honestly what's available.
We'll stop and tell you before doing anything beyond the original quote — no surprise charges.
Anything requiring a permit (electrical panel work, structural changes, major plumbing re-routes) needs a licensed specialist — we'll tell you upfront if your job is one of those instead of taking it on.
