Coquitlam Handyman FAQs - We Get Asked This A Lot

Coquitlam homeowners often have the same questions before booking handyman services. Here are answers to the most common ones.

What kinds of jobs are too small for you? Honestly, no job is too small. We're happy to handle single tasks such as TV mounting, furniture assembly, or hanging shelves. Many clients find reaching out about small fixes overwhelming, but we're always here to help.

What about larger projects? We handle small to medium home renovations, but we refer major structural work, full kitchen gut-outs, or complete roof replacements to specialized contractors. If a job is outside our scope, we'll be honest and recommend trusted professionals.

How does pricing work? We offer two pricing options: an hourly rate or a fixed price, based on the size of the task. Tasks like replacing a faucet or installing a light fixture typically carry a flat fee because they're straightforward. But for larger, more complex jobs, we'll provide a detailed quote outlining the scope of work and all required materials.

How soon can we get started? For smaller jobs, we can often fit you in the same week or the next day. But for larger projects, we'll work with you to schedule a time that works best, typically within a week or two.

Do you supply the materials? Yeah, we can get the materials you need, or you can go out and buy them yourself. If we end up supplying them, we'll itemize them on your invoice so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Are you available to work evenings or on Saturdays? We're open Monday to Saturday, and we do have some availability for estimates and smaller jobs on weeknights. Saturdays are super popular, so if you can book ahead, that's usually a good idea.

What areas of Coquitlam do you cover? We serve the whole city of Coquitlam, plus Port Coquitlam and Port Moody, and some parts of the surrounding area.

What if something goes wrong after the work is done? If you notice anything that isn't right, we'll fix it for free, no problem. We're proud of the work we do and want you to be satisfied with it.

How do I get in touch? Please call us at 365-444-0596 or email info@canadahandyman.ca with all the details of your project.

• Give us some rough measurements - room size, length of the walls, how many fixtures you need to deal with

• If you have a specific brand or type of material in mind, let us know

• If there's a deadline looming, whether it's before a move or some family visit, we should know

• Last but not least, get us your address and let us know when you're free for a site visit
