Every handyman service below is available across Toronto, most completed in 1, 2 or 3 hours at our flat rate.
BuildMan has worked in Toronto homes since 2008 — first as custom-home builders, now as the handyman service those same clients call for the smaller jobs. From century semis in Cabbagetown and Riverdale to waterfront condos and detached homes in Forest Hill, we know how Toronto's housing stock is built, which means faster diagnosis and fewer surprises.
Old plaster walls, settled door frames, tricky downtown parking and condo service-elevator bookings are all familiar territory. Most Toronto handyman jobs are booked same-day or next-day and finished in one to three hours, at our flat $150 / $280 / $410 rates with no trip charge — anywhere from the lake to Steeles.

Same-day handyman work in Toronto only happens if the person who shows up already understands the house. The old city is dominated by late-Victorian and Edwardian semis and row houses in Cabbagetown, Riverdale and The Annex, worker's cottages in Leslieville and The Junction, and large 1910s–1930s homes in Rosedale and Forest Hill. Add the glass towers of the Downtown Core, Yorkville and Liberty Village, and a single morning can mean horsehair plaster at nine and a concrete condo ceiling at eleven.
That housing mix produces a predictable list of same-day calls:
Our condo handyman service handles the building-side logistics, and our door and carpentry repairs page covers the trim, stair and door work that older Toronto houses need most.
Toronto Building, the City of Toronto's permit division, issues permits for the whole amalgamated city. Swapping a faucet, patching a wall or mounting a TV needs no permit. Opening a wall between rooms, underpinning a basement, adding a deck high off the ground or moving plumbing drains does. In those cases our BCIN-qualified team files the drawings and books the inspections, and any new circuits go to a licensed electrician under Electrical Safety Authority rules. That matters in older homes, where an outlet replacement can turn up knob-and-tube wiring that should be handled by an electrician, not a handyman.
Whether it's a Beaches bungalow or a High Park detached, a same-day visit is billed at the same flat rate, and every handyman job carries our one-year workmanship guarantee.
No. We charge the same flat $150 / $280 / $410 handyman rates everywhere in the GTA — there is no travel surcharge for Toronto. Materials are billed at supplier cost with the receipt.
Most weekdays, yes. Book online or call (905) 660-9992 and we'll confirm a window within 60 minutes during business hours. Saturday appointments are available across Toronto too.
Everything on our handyman list — TV and wall mounting, electrical fixtures, plumbing and fixtures, drywall repair, painting and touch-ups, floor and tile repair, doors and carpentry, and curtains and blinds. Most Toronto jobs are done in one to three hours.
