From a loose cabinet hinge to a full punch-list of home repairs, Handyman Services Ottawa delivers skilled, fully insured craftsmanship across every neighborhood in the National Capital Region.
From a loose cabinet hinge to a full punch-list of home repairs, Handyman Services Ottawa delivers skilled, fully insured craftsmanship across every neighborhood in the National Capital Region. Whether you live in a century home in The Glebe, a modern condo in Westboro, a postwar bungalow in Alta Vista, or a new build in Kanata or Barrhaven, our experienced team handles the fixes, installs, and upgrades that keep your home running smoothly — on time, on budget, and done right the first time.
We are a locally owned, locally staffed Ottawa handyman service with more than a decade of combined trade experience, $2 million in general liability insurance, WSIB coverage on every technician, and a workmanship guarantee on every job we complete. When you call, you reach our team directly. When our technician arrives, that person is our employee — uniformed, background-checked, and fully accountable. And when the job is done, you deal with us for any follow-up, not an out-of-province call center.
Handyman Services Ottawa is a home repair and maintenance company serving homeowners, renters, landlords, property managers, condo boards, and small businesses throughout Ottawa and the surrounding region. Founded by a team of experienced Ottawa tradespeople, we have completed thousands of projects across every type of property in the capital — from heritage homes in Sandy Hill, New Edinburgh, and Rockcliffe Park to postwar bungalows in Alta Vista, Manor Park, and older Nepean, and new builds in Stonebridge, Half Moon Bay, Findlay Creek, Chapel Hill, and Kanata Lakes.
We specialize in the repairs, installations, and home improvements that sit between "call a specialty contractor" and "try it yourself and hope for the best." Our technicians are trained generalists — carpenters, finishers, painters, and tradespeople with years of hands-on experience — which means a single visit can cover ten different items on your list rather than forcing you to coordinate five different trades across five different appointments.
Every member of our team is fully insured, carries $2 million in general liability coverage, is covered by WSIB, and has passed a criminal background check. Our technicians arrive in marked vehicles, wear company uniforms, and treat your home with the respect it deserves — including shoe covers, floor protection, drop cloths, and a thorough cleanup before we leave.
Our roots are in Ottawa. We understand the particular challenges of owning a home in this climate: the freeze-thaw cycles that loosen caulking and open up drafts every winter, the heavy spring rains that reveal last year's gutter problems, the summer humidity that warps doors and swells window frames, and the ice dam season that sends water seeping into upstairs ceilings every February. We know which central neighborhoods have century-old plaster walls that need special care, which suburban streets have the aluminum wiring that requires properly rated devices, and which downtown condo towers require a certificate of insurance on file before we can even enter with tools.
We are not a national franchise or a lead-resale platform. Your project stays with us from the first phone call to the final invoice.
You're letting someone into your home, asking them to work unsupervised, and expecting them to charge fairly for quality work. Here are the reasons Ottawa homeowners choose us — and why they keep calling us back.
We carry $2 million in general liability insurance, WSIB coverage for every technician on site, and we provide a certificate of insurance to any condo board or property manager that requires one — usually within hours of request.
Every person we send into your home has passed a criminal background check, wears a company uniform, carries photo ID, and arrives in a marked vehicle.
You get a clear estimate before work begins. No surprise charges, no inflated material markups, no mysterious "shop fees." If the scope changes mid-job, we pause and get your approval before continuing.
Most of our projects combine multiple small tasks — patch drywall, replace a faucet, mount a TV, repair a door, re-caulk a tub — that would otherwise mean four separate service calls. We handle them in a single visit.
We live and work in the same neighborhoods we serve. You are not a case number to us — you are a neighbor, and your referral is the lifeblood of our business.
Every repair is backed by a workmanship guarantee. If something we fixed fails because of our work, we come back and make it right at no additional charge.
We arrive within the appointment window, lay down drop cloths before we start, clean up before we leave, and text you when we are on the way so you're never waiting blind.
Morning, afternoon, select evening, and Saturday appointments. We work around your schedule, not the other way around.
Our reputation has been built on word-of-mouth from hundreds of customers across Westboro, The Glebe, Centretown, Kanata, Orleans, Barrhaven, Alta Vista, Hintonburg, and beyond.
We handle the full spectrum of home repair and maintenance. If it is small, mid-sized, or falls outside the narrow scope of a specialty trade, chances are we do it. Below is a detailed list of the services we perform most often in Ottawa homes — along with typical price ranges so you know what to expect. All pricing is approximate and quoted individually; materials are billed separately at cost.
From a loose banister to custom trim work, our carpentry services keep the bones of your home tight and square. We repair and install baseboards, crown moulding, casings, chair rails, and wainscoting; build and hang custom shelving and built-ins; repair damaged door frames and thresholds; reinforce sagging stair treads; and fix the dozens of small wood-related issues that accumulate in a home over the years. For Ottawa's many century and pre-war homes in The Glebe, Sandy Hill, and New Edinburgh, we bring specific experience with older wood dimensions, horsehair plaster walls, and non-standard door sizes.
$95–$125 / hourPlus materials · Most jobs 2–4 hours
Holes from a doorknob, cracks above a window, water stains from last winter's ice dam, scuffs from moving furniture, nail pops from the house settling — we patch, sand, prime, and paint to a finish that blends invisibly into the surrounding wall. For larger projects, we repaint full rooms, touch up accent walls, refresh trim and ceilings, and handle the prep work that separates a professional finish from a DIY job. We match existing sheens and colours where needed and use low-VOC paints by default.
$150–$750Small patch $150–$300 · Full-room $350–$750
Doors that stick in humid weather, windows that will not close properly, hinges that have loosened after years of use, weatherstripping that lets cold air pour through in January — we adjust, realign, replace, and weatherproof. We also install new interior doors (pre-hung or slab), replace locks and deadbolts (including smart locks), repair screens and sliding patio doors, and adjust the door sweeps and thresholds that are so often the source of hidden drafts. Ottawa's 40-point seasonal humidity swing moves every door and window in every home — we bring them back into alignment.
$125–$400Per door or window, scope-dependent
We handle the plumbing tasks that do not require a full-scope licensed plumber: faucet replacements (kitchen, bathroom, laundry), toilet repairs and full replacements, shutoff valve swaps, P-trap replacements, showerhead installs, hose-bib replacement, dishwasher and washing machine hookups, and leak diagnostics under sinks and behind toilets. For anything involving main stack work, natural gas, backwater valves, or significant re-piping, we refer you to a trusted licensed plumber in our network.
$175–$450Faucet $175–$350 · Toilet $250–$450 (incl. haul-away)
Light fixture replacements, outlet and switch swaps (including tamper-resistant and AL-rated devices), dimmer installs, smoke and carbon monoxide detector replacement, ceiling fan installations, under-cabinet lighting, and similar work within the scope of routine residential electrical. All work is performed to Ontario Electrical Safety Code standards. For larger projects like panel upgrades, new circuits, knob-and-tube replacement, or any work requiring ESA inspection beyond our scope, we refer you to a Licensed Electrical Contractor.
$150–$400Per fixture or outlet, including parts
Secure, level, and hidden-cable installations for flat-screen TVs of any size, floating shelves, heavy artwork, mirrors, curtain rods, blinds, and gallery walls. We locate studs, use the correct hardware for drywall, plaster, concrete, or brick, and make sure nothing ends up on the floor six months later. In-wall cable management for TVs mounted above fireplaces is one of our most-requested installs in newer Kanata, Orleans, and Barrhaven homes.
$95–$350TV mount $175–$350 · Shelving $95–$250
Cracked tiles replaced, failing grout removed and re-done, bathtub and shower caulking refreshed, kitchen backsplashes repaired, and ceramic floor repairs. In Ottawa's climate, the freeze-thaw cycle outside and the high indoor humidity swings in winter are hard on grout and caulk — we re-seal before water gets behind the tile and rots out the subfloor. Early intervention here can save you a full bathroom tear-out down the line.
$150–$600Tub re-caulk $150–$275 · Tile repair $250–$600
Loose deck boards, wobbly railings, broken fence pickets, gate hardware that will not latch, exterior trim rotted at the corners, faded stain that needs a refresh, damaged lattice — we repair and maintain the outdoor features that take the worst of Ottawa's weather. Spring deck and fence season (April through June) books up quickly, so we recommend scheduling early.
$35–$600Deck board $35–$75 each · Fence repair $150–$600
Clogged gutters are the number-one cause of ice dams and foundation water intrusion in Ottawa homes. We clear debris, flush downspouts, check for loose sections and hidden pinhole leaks, and install gutter guards on request. We also pressure-wash siding and decks, re-caulk exterior trim, and seasonal-prep your home's exterior for the Ottawa winter or summer.
$175–$425Depending on home size & stories
IKEA, Wayfair, Article, Structube, Amazon, Costco — whatever flat-pack or kit furniture you have bought, we assemble it faster, tighter, and without stripped screws or missing hardware. We also install built-ins, closet organizer systems (ClosetMaid, Elfa, Ikea Pax), and garage storage systems. Brought home an entire office of desks for a hybrid-work setup? We can do that in a day.
$95 / hourTwo-hour minimum · Most jobs 1–3 hours
Weatherstripping around rim joists, insulation top-ups in attic spaces, sealing plumbing and wiring penetrations, installing vapor barriers in unfinished basements, and addressing the drafts that drive up heating bills in Ottawa winters. Small improvements here often pay for themselves within a single heating season.
$250–$1,200Depending on scope & accessibility
Grab bar installation in bathrooms, threshold ramps, handrail replacement, lever-style door handles, raised toilet seats, motion-activated lighting, pull-out shelving, and other small changes that make a home safer for aging parents, disability recovery, or visitors with mobility needs. We install grab bars into proper blocking or use heavy-duty toggle hardware — never the plastic-anchor quick-install kind.
$125–$200Grab bar each · Larger mods quoted individually
Wall repair, paint touch-ups, appliance installs, lock re-keying, and the full punch-list that property managers and landlords need between tenants. We can turn around most suite turnovers in a single day and provide itemized invoices suitable for damage deposit reconciliation under the Residential Tenancies Act.
$400–$1,800Full turnover · Size & condition-dependent
Retail fit-up punch lists, office shelving, signage mounting, breakroom installs, clinic and medical office small repairs, and the ongoing maintenance that small commercial spaces require. We carry commercial-grade insurance and can provide certificates to building management on request.

Some are specific to the age and style of the property, others are specific to the climate, and some show up every spring or every fall like clockwork. Below are the problems we are called for most often — and how we fix them.
Every January, we field calls from homeowners who have noticed brown stains spreading across ceilings or water seeping in around upstairs window frames. The culprit is almost always ice damming — snow melts on warmer sections of the roof, refreezes at the colder eaves, and backs up under the shingles. The long-term fix is improved attic insulation and ventilation, along with addressing any heat leaks from the house envelope. The short-term fix is careful steam removal and sealing any interior penetration points. We handle the remediation and coordinate with a trusted roofer for the permanent repair when needed.
If you can feel a cold draft on your hand when you hold it near a window frame in February, you are heating the outdoors. Most of the fix is re-caulking the exterior, replacing weatherstripping on the sash or door, and adjusting the hardware so the frame actually compresses the seal. This alone can reduce heating bills by 10–20% in an older Ottawa home — a small investment with a meaningful return, especially in century homes throughout The Glebe, Sandy Hill, and Hintonburg.
Ottawa's clay-heavy soil, freeze-thaw cycles, and high water tables in certain neighborhoods combine to stress foundations in ways that lead to hairline cracks, efflorescence on basement walls, and damp patches after heavy spring rain. Minor cracks we seal ourselves with polyurethane injection or hydraulic cement, depending on the location. For active leaks, structural movement, or weeping-tile issues, we bring in a specialist foundation contractor.
Indoor humidity in an Ottawa bathroom during winter is brutal on grout and caulk. Once a seal fails, water migrates behind the tile and rots out the subfloor — often without any visible sign until the damage is significant. We catch it early, remove the old material, treat any mould we find, and re-seal properly with mildew-resistant caulk and sealed grout.
Common in every vintage of Ottawa home, from century Victorians to 1970s side-splits. Most squeaks can be silenced from above with specialty screws or from below by re-shimming the subfloor against the joist. We diagnose the source before drilling any holes, and we refinish any top-side entry points cleanly.
Ottawa winters destroy unpainted or poorly caulked exterior wood. If you have noticed soft spots at the base of door frames, along window sills, at the corners of fascia, or at the joints where soffit meets brick, it is almost always moisture intrusion. We replace the affected sections, treat the surrounding area, and re-paint or re-stain to match the existing finish.
Humidity in July, dry heat in January — Ottawa's indoor climate swings 40 percentage points of relative humidity across the seasons, and doors move accordingly. We plane, adjust hinges, shim, and re-strike for a clean close year-round, even as the house continues to breathe with the weather.
Exterior deck railings and interior stair banisters loosen over time. In rental properties especially, this becomes a liability issue that insurers and tenants notice. We re-anchor, reinforce, and bring railings back to code-compliant tightness — a job that should be done before it becomes an accident.
The everyday small plumbing problems that silently cost $40–$80 a month in water waste on a metered home. Most of these fixes take 30–60 minutes and pay for themselves within a year, while a single dripping faucet can stain a sink beyond repair if ignored long enough.
Ottawa has a significant stock of 1960s and 1970s homes with aluminum branch-circuit wiring — particularly in parts of Nepean, Gloucester, older sections of Orleans, and Bells Corners. We don't re-wire, but we do install AL/CU-rated receptacles and switches and flag concerns for follow-up with a licensed electrician, which can matter for insurance policy requirements.
After the snow melts each April, damaged boards, popped fasteners, and rusted railing connectors become visible. We sweep, inspect, replace, and refinish so your deck is ready for Victoria Day weekend rather than August.
A common complaint in Ottawa suburban homes (Kanata, Barrhaven, Orleans, Findlay Creek) is a cold bedroom or bonus room over the garage. The cause is usually insufficient insulation and unsealed penetrations at the garage ceiling. A targeted insulation and air-sealing upgrade makes these rooms usable in winter again.
Two different business models that look the same from a Google listing. They produce very different experiences in your home. Honest side-by-side — not an attack on anyone, just the truth about the trade-offs.
We've refined our booking and service process based on what Ottawa homeowners consistently tell us matters most: clear communication, accurate timing, transparent pricing, and a tidy home when we leave. Here is what to expect when you book with us.
Call us, fill out the online contact form, or send photos by text or email. Describe the tasks you want done — a single repair or a full punch-list — and share any details about access, timing, parking availability, pets in the home, and the property type (house, condo, rental). The more detail you give us up front, the more accurate your quote will be.
For most projects, we can provide a ballpark quote over the phone or by email within the same business day. For larger or more complex jobs, we schedule a free on-site assessment at a time that works for you. Either way, you will know what to expect before we arrive.
We offer morning, afternoon, and select evening and Saturday appointments. You'll get a two-hour arrival window and a text message when our technician is on the way. We do our best to accommodate tight schedules, especially for property managers coordinating tenant access.
Our technician arrives in a marked vehicle, introduces themselves, reviews the scope with you, lays down drop cloths and shoe covers, and begins work. If anything in the scope needs to change — for example, a repair reveals hidden damage — we stop and get your approval before proceeding. No surprises on the invoice.
Before we leave, we walk you through the completed work, invite you to inspect it, and make any small adjustments on the spot. We vacuum and clean the work area, take all debris and packaging with us, and leave your home as tidy as we found it — or tidier.
You receive an itemized invoice by email at the end of the visit. Payment is due on completion by e-transfer, credit card, or cheque. Every job is backed by our workmanship guarantee — if something fails because of our work, we come back at no charge.

Ottawa is a diverse housing market with a wide range of regulatory requirements, climate considerations, and neighborhood-specific quirks. The information below reflects what we tell our customers most often when they are planning repairs or improvements.
Most minor repairs — drywall patching, painting, faucet replacement, light fixture swaps, caulking, weatherstripping — do not require a building permit in Ottawa. However, a permit is required for work that affects the structure of the home, significant plumbing or electrical changes, additions, decks above a certain height, secondary suites, and most exterior wall modifications. The City of Ottawa processes permits through its Building Code Services division, and the Ontario Building Code governs all residential construction in the province. If your project crosses into permit territory, we will tell you upfront and can coordinate the application on your behalf.
In Ontario, electrical work is regulated by the Electrical Safety Authority. Many residential electrical tasks must be performed by a Licensed Electrical Contractor and notified to the ESA for inspection. Our technicians handle straightforward replacements within the scope a homeowner can have completed; for any new circuits, panel upgrades, service changes, or extensive rewiring, we refer you to a Licensed Electrical Contractor in our network.
Parts of Ottawa — including Rockcliffe Park, sections of Sandy Hill, parts of Lowertown West, and select streets in The Glebe and New Edinburgh — are designated Heritage Conservation Districts. Exterior changes in these areas require a Heritage Permit and must comply with the district's specific design guidelines. We are familiar with the process and can flag early whether your property is affected, which can save significant time and avoid costly rework.
Ottawa's climate is one of the most demanding in Canada. Average January temperatures hover around -10°C with lows routinely below -25°C, while July humidity regularly pushes the "feels-like" temperature into the mid-30s. This seasonal extreme drives most of the repair calls we see:
Ottawa's housing is not uniform. Understanding the type of home you own helps you anticipate what repairs are likely to come up over the years:
Many Ottawa condo buildings — especially newer high-rises in Centretown, Westboro, Little Italy, and the Byward Market — require service providers to submit a certificate of insurance naming the condominium corporation as additionally insured before work can begin. We carry $2 million in general liability coverage and can provide a COI to any property management company, usually within a few hours of request. We also understand common condo-specific requirements around loading-dock booking, elevator padding, and quiet hours.
Under the Residential Tenancies Act, landlords are required to maintain rental units in a good state of repair. We work with dozens of Ottawa landlords and property managers and can invoice in formats suitable for damage deposit reconciliation, LTB filings, or insurance claims. When repairs are needed in occupied units, we coordinate access directly with tenants and provide the courtesy notice many tenants appreciate.
Credentials matter. Every technician we send into your home arrives with a documented background, verified insurance, and the accountability of a local team that lives in the same neighborhoods we serve.
More than a decade of combined trade experience. Thousands of completed projects across every type of Ottawa property — from century homes in The Glebe to modern condos in Westboro.
Trained generalists — carpenters, finishers, painters, and tradespeople. One visit, many trades. Ontario Building Code and ESA-aware work within our permitted scope.
Recognised by property managers, condo boards, and landlords across Ottawa. Certificate of insurance on file with dozens of buildings. WSIB-covered team, invoiced to RTA-compatible formats.
$2M general liability, WSIB coverage, criminal background checks on every technician, workmanship guarantee on every job. Transparent pricing — no hidden "shop fees."
The following testimonials reflect the kind of feedback we regularly receive from customers across Ottawa. Names, locations, and star ratings are illustrative and should be replaced with actual customer reviews before publication.
"I had a list of twelve small things that had been bugging me for a year — doors that wouldn't close, a dripping tub faucet, a loose stair railing, a broken cabinet hinge. They knocked all twelve out in a single afternoon. Absolutely thrilled."
"We had water damage in our basement ceiling from a slow leak upstairs. They opened up the drywall, confirmed everything was dry, patched and painted, and it's like nothing ever happened. Very professional and clean."
"I manage fourteen rental units in Centretown and Hintonburg. Handyman Services Ottawa is my go-to for turnovers — fast, fair, and they invoice cleanly. Saved me hours of coordination."
"They re-caulked our tub, replaced the shower head, fixed a running toilet, and swapped out three light fixtures — all within the two-hour minimum. I had been putting it off for months and they made it effortless."
"Needed a TV mounted over our stone fireplace in our new Kanata home. The builder said it wasn't possible without damage. These guys got it done beautifully, hid the cables, and were in and out in an hour and a half."
"We bought a century home in Sandy Hill and quickly realized we needed someone who understood old plaster, old doors, old floors — everything. They've become our first call for anything that comes up."
"Fair pricing, clear communication, and excellent workmanship. They came when they said they would, charged what they quoted, and cleaned up after themselves. That shouldn't be notable but unfortunately it is."
"Professional, friendly, and they actually solved the problem instead of upselling us to something bigger. Rare in this industry."

An Ottawa handyman handles the broad middle ground of home repairs and improvements — carpentry, drywall and painting, minor plumbing and electrical, furniture assembly, door and window repair, caulking, tile, TV mounting, and hundreds of similar tasks. The rule of thumb: if it is a small-to-medium job that falls between a specialty trade and a DIY project, a handyman is usually the right call. For structural, gas, major electrical, or major plumbing work, a specialty contractor is required.
Hourly rates in Ottawa typically range from $75 to $125 per hour, depending on the complexity of the work and the experience level of the technician. Most companies charge a two-hour minimum. Materials are billed separately, usually at cost or with a small markup. For a detailed estimate on your specific project, contact us with a description of the work and we will provide a quote the same day.
Within our core Ottawa service area, there is no separate trip fee — the two-hour minimum covers the visit. For properties outside the core area, such as Dunrobin, Carp, North Gower, and Metcalfe, a modest travel fee may apply. We always disclose any additional charges in the initial quote.
Yes. We carry $2 million in general liability insurance, have WSIB coverage for every technician, and can provide a Certificate of Insurance on request for condo boards, property managers, or commercial clients.
For most small repairs, no. Painting, patching, caulking, fixture swaps, and similar tasks do not require permits in Ottawa. Structural work, new additions, major plumbing or electrical changes, and certain deck and fence projects do. We will tell you up front if your project requires a permit, and we can coordinate the application if needed.
We handle straightforward residential electrical tasks within the scope a homeowner is permitted to have completed — light fixtures, outlets, switches, ceiling fans, dimmers, and smoke detectors. For new circuits, panel upgrades, or any work requiring ESA inspection beyond our scope, we refer you to a Licensed Electrical Contractor in our network.
We handle minor plumbing — faucets, toilets, shutoff valves, showerheads, P-traps, dishwasher and washing machine hookups. We do not handle gas lines, main stack work, backwater valves, or full re-pipes; for those, we refer you to a trusted licensed plumber.
A long punch list is exactly where a handyman adds the most value. Rather than scheduling five different trades for five different appointments, one of our technicians can handle ten or fifteen tasks in a single visit. We recommend sending us the list in advance so we can bring the right tools and materials on the first visit.
For most non-emergency requests, we can book you within three to five business days. For urgent repairs — active leaks, broken locks, safety issues — we try to accommodate same-day or next-day service depending on availability. Peak seasons (spring for exterior work, late fall for weatherization) book up faster, so early scheduling is recommended.
We offer limited Saturday appointments and can sometimes accommodate early-evening weekday work. Standard hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Emergency calls are handled outside regular hours on a best-effort basis.
We serve all of Ottawa's urban neighborhoods and most of the suburbs, including Kanata, Barrhaven, Orleans, Nepean, Gloucester, Westboro, The Glebe, Centretown, Sandy Hill, Alta Vista, Hintonburg, New Edinburgh, and more. We also service surrounding communities such as Manotick, Stittsville, Richmond, and Carp.
Yes — we regularly work in condos across Ottawa and are experienced with condo board certificate-of-insurance requirements, loading dock scheduling, elevator padding, and building-specific access rules. Please let us know the building and any contact information for the property manager when you book so we can pre-clear access.
Yes. All workmanship is guaranteed. If a repair we performed fails because of our work within a reasonable timeframe, we return and make it right at no additional cost. Manufacturer warranties on parts and materials are passed through to you directly.
Absolutely. We work with dozens of property managers and landlords across Ottawa and can invoice directly, provide certificates of insurance, coordinate access with tenants, and supply documentation suitable for deposit reconciliation or insurance claims.
Payment is due upon completion. We accept e-transfer, credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express), and cheque. Larger projects may be structured with a deposit and balance schedule.
