Latest review:
Imagine building a new home, and the painter misses parts of walls, moldings (bare wood still exposed), drips paint on appliances, floors, walls, tiles, vanities, doors, light fixtures, and even leaves a dirty paint pail in the new sink. Also uses wrong grade of paint and uses the same on the trim as the walls! He comes back three times to try and correct the work but doesn't. He then disappears and unfortunately was then paid in full by the absentee general contractor. Other painters came to give quotes and were shocked by the sloppy work. My wife is now preparing to take the painter and general contractor all to court.

What to Ask Before You Hire a Handyman Near You

Before hiring a handyman, it’s helpful to ask the right questions to ensure you get the service you need. From experience and pricing to what’s included in the job, knowing what to look for helps you make an informed decision.

Here are some essential questions to ask when choosing the right handyman for your project:

What services do you offer?

Not every handyman handles the same range of tasks. Some specialise in general repairs and furniture assembly, while others may offer painting, minor plumbing, or post-renovation fixes. Make sure the handyman can handle the specific work you need.

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.

FAQs: Your Questions About Handymen Answered

Can a handyman handle post-renovation repairs?

Yes. Many handymen are experienced with minor repairs following renovations, including touch-ups, drywall patching, trim work, and furniture assembly. Be sure to clarify the exact scope of work before hiring.

Can a handyman work on outdoor projects?

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.
