What services do you offer?

Are you licensed and insured?

In Canada, some provinces and territories require handymen to hold trade certifications for certain tasks. Regardless, always hire someone who carries liability insurance. This protects you and the handyman in case of accidental damage or injury. Ask how long they’ve been in the trade and the types of projects they typically handle.

Do you provide your own tools and materials?

Some handymen bring everything they need to complete the job, while others may expect you to provide certain tools or materials. Clarify this beforehand so there are no surprises.

What is your availability and cancellation policy?

Confirm whether the handyman can accommodate your schedule for one-off jobs or ongoing projects. Ask about notice periods for cancellations or rescheduling and any potential fees.

Yes. Many handymen handle exterior tasks such as fence repairs, deck maintenance, gutter cleaning, or small landscaping jobs. Check whether the handyman has the right equipment and experience for outdoor work.

How long will a job carried out by a handyman take?

The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the task. Small jobs may take under 2 hours, medium tasks 2–4 hours, and larger projects a day or more. Experienced handymen can provide time estimates when you request a quote.

Can handymen work while I’m not at home?

Yes, but it requires clear arrangements. Options may include using a key safe, providing a spare key, or scheduling a time when you’re present. Always verify the handyman’s process for access and security.
