Handyman Services in Toronto & Across the GTA

A handyman handles the small, self-contained repairs and installs around a home that do not need a permit or a licensed trade — mounting TVs and shelves, patching drywall, painting rooms and trim, swapping faucets and light fixtures, fixing sticking doors, repairing tile and grout, re-caulking bathrooms, hanging blinds, assembling furniture, and repairing decks and fences. The real advantage is that one visit can cover a dozen unrelated jobs instead of booking a different trade for each one.

Check four things before you book. First, that they carry liability insurance and WSIB coverage — ask outright. Second, that you get a written price before work starts, not after. Third, that they will tell you when a job needs a licensed electrician, plumber or a permit rather than doing it anyway. Fourth, that a real person is accountable for the job. FixitPlus covers all four, and estimates are free across the GTA.

It depends on how the work is quoted. Most GTA handymen charge hourly with a one or two hour minimum, or by the half day. We quote almost everything flat-rate per job or per visit, agreed before we start, so the price does not move while we work. The biggest lever on cost is bundling — six jobs handled in one visit costs far less than six separate call-outs. Send us the list and you will have a firm number, usually within a business day.

Yes, and it is the most economical way to use us. Send the full list, we will quote it as one visit, and we will work down it in the order that matters most to you. If something on the list turns out to need a specialist, we will flag it in the quote rather than discovering it on the day.

Toronto and the inner suburbs including North York, Etobicoke and Scarborough; York Region including Vaughan, Maple, Richmond Hill, Markham, Thornhill, Aurora, Newmarket and King City; Peel and Halton including Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville, Burlington and Milton; and Durham including Ajax, Pickering, Whitby and Oshawa. If you are not sure whether you are in range, call — we are usually already working nearby.

Most handyman jobs book within the same week, and we give you a realistic arrival window when we confirm. Urgent items — a leaking fixture, a door that will not lock, a safety hazard — get prioritised, so say so when you call.

We handle the fixture side of both: light fixtures, dimmers, switches, pot lights and ceiling fans on the electrical side; faucets, toilets, vanities, garburators and shut-off valves on the plumbing side. Anything that requires an ESA permit, a new circuit, panel work, re-piping, a gas line or a main stack goes to a licensed electrician or plumber — we will bring one in or refer you. We never quietly do permit work.
