Moose Jaw's Top Handyman - Get Help for a Hassle-Free Home in Your Backyard

Welcome to your go-to handyman in Moose Jaw - where we're here to make life easier for you, no matter what's bugging you about your home. We're a local crew of pros with the skills to tackle those little problems that have been driving you nuts - like that squeaky door that's been annoying you for weeks, or that deck that needs fixing before next summer hits.

We service Moose Jaw proper, as well as surrounding communities such as Caronport, the Baildon area acreages, and the Wellesley Park and West Park neighborhoods. Whether you're living in a character home downtown or a newer build out in Sunningdale, we handle both residential repairs and light commercial work with care and attention to detail.

Why bother calling a bunch of different contractors when you can just find us and call? We bundle all those little jobs, plus regular maintenance, into one visit. That means less stress for you and more time to enjoy your home.

Get in touch with us today:

• Give us a ring: 365-444-0596 - and talk to a friendly local voice

• Send us an email: info@canadahandyman.ca, and we'll get back to you pronto

We've been helping Moose Jaw homeowners with all their day-to-day fixes and small projects since 2018, and building a reputation for being on time and getting the job done right. If your to-do list is getting longer by the day, we're here to help you knock it off and exceed your needs.

Some common problems we solve in Moose Jaw homes include:

• Handrails that are loose on stairs and decks

• Drywall dings, nail pops, and scuffed walls

• Leaky faucets and running toilets

• Doors that won't close properly due to being stuck

• Light fixtures that are outdated and need to be swapped out

• Weatherstripping that's seen better days

Why Moose Jaw Homeowners Trust Our Handyman Team

We know our way around the unique construction styles in Moose Jaw - from the older character homes in The Avenues and downtown to the newer builds in Sunningdale and Westheath. And we know how the local climate can be tough on houses here - those freeze-thaw cycles, prairie winds that can get crazy strong, and temperature swings from -40°C winters to 35°C summers all take their toll on siding, decks, doors, and seals.

What sets us apart:

• We show up on time: And if weather gets in the way or a surprise snowstorm hits, you'll be the first to know

• No jargon to confuse you: We explain repairs in plain English and show you exactly what we're doing, so you know what's going on

• Background-checked techs: Every member of our team has been thoroughly vetted and carries the right insurance for residential and small commercial work

• Upfront pricing: You get a written or emailed estimate before we start, so there are no surprise add-ons when the job is done

• We respect your space: We put on shoe covers when needed, keep our work area tidy, and clean up before we leave

Lots of Moose Jaw clients - from retirees in Crescent View to busy families near Palliser Heights School, and landlords with rental properties - appreciate having a single reliable service to deal with, rather than juggling several contractors. When you find a handyman you trust, life gets a lot simpler.

We often bundle multiple small jobs into a single visit, saving you time and money. So instead of paying for several separate trips, you get everything sorted in one efficient appointment.

Interior Repairs and Improvements in Moose Jaw Homes

Our interior work is all about making your living spaces safe, functional, and comfortable - especially in high-use areas like the kitchen, bathroom, and basement. We try to combine drywall, paint, minor carpentry, and small plumbing or electrical tasks into a single visit whenever possible, so you're not waiting around for multiple trades.

Below, we'll cover the specific interior services we offer:

• Drywall & Painting

• Bathrooms

• Kitchens & Cabinets

• General Handyman Tasks

• Minor Plumbing & Electrical

We've had a number of recent projects in Moose Jaw between 2022 and 2024 - including basement makeovers in VLA and bathroom refreshes in West Park. Check out the details in our service descriptions below.

Drywall & Painting

From tiny nail holes to larger patches and full-room paint touch-ups, we handle quality drywall and painting to keep your walls looking their best. Moose Jaw's climate and shifting foundations can cause cracks and damage that need professional attention.

Our drywall and painting services include:

• Patching holes from old TV mounts, shelving, and prior renovations

• Fixing nail pops that are common in newer Moose Jaw homes built after 2000

• Repairing stress cracks caused by foundation movement and seasonal changes* Matching your ceiling and wall texture to give our touch-ups a seamless look you can't even tell was a repair.

• We paint the interior of bedrooms, living rooms, and basements - including any colour changes if you're selling your home.

We bring our drop cloths and plastic sheeting to protect your floors and furniture. We handle basic cleanup afterward, so you don't have to deal with a mess.

Bathrooms

Updating your bathroom can do a lot to improve your comfort and prevent costly water damage - especially if you're dealing with an older bungalow from the 60s or 70s that's been through a lot over the years.

We can help out with:

• Pulling out and putting in new caulk around tubs, showers, and sinks where it's cracked or not doing its job

• Cleaning up or repairing grout and tile where water's seeping behind the walls

• Fixing up or installing new bathroom faucets, showerheads, or handheld sprays

• Adding or swapping out exhaust fans to cut down on moisture and make your bathroom a lot more comfortable in the winter months

• Swapping out your toilet for a new one - even if you want to upgrade to one of those low-flow models that are a bit more eco-friendly

We don't do full tub re-enamelling or re-pipe plumbing ourselves, but we can recommend people in the area who specialise in those bigger jobs.

Kitchens & Cabinets

Kitchens see a lot of action daily, so we focus on making sure everything works properly. Doors that close right, taps that don't leak, and surfaces that look nice without needing a total overhaul.

Our kitchen services include:

• Getting cabinet doors to shut properly again and tightening up any loose hinges

• Swapping in some new drawer slides and handles to give your kitchen a bit of a refresh

• Replacing kitchen faucets and fixing minor leaks under the sink (that means swapping out a few bits like the P-trap or supply line)

• Repairing or installing backslashes - especially if you've got tile or one of those peel-and-stick products

• Installing or moving basic appliances like dishwashers or over-the-range microwaves, where a little bit of renovation is needed

We actually did a job in Sunningdale in 2023 where we just updated some hardware and fixed some soft-close hinges on the cabinets - it gave the whole kitchen a big boost without breaking the bank on a full remodel.

General Handyman Tasks

These are just the little things around the house that never seem to get done on their own.

Our general handyman services include:

• Fixing doors that stick or won't shut right, and adjusting any that drag or won't latch properly on either side of the house

• Swapping out old door hardware for new and more secure options, or just for something a bit more modern

• Installing curtain rods, blinds, some blackout shades, and basic window coverings

• Hanging up some artwork, a mirror, or a TV - we make sure to use the right anchors into studs so they're safe

• Assembling that flat-pack furniture you got from the store - we can help out with all sorts of other storage units, too

For people in Moose Jaw who are always on the go or not super comfortable with tools, it's a real relief to have someone reliable to call when you need a hand.

Minor Plumbing & Electrical

We handle small plumbing and electrical tasks that don't require a permit, and we bring in or refer you to licensed specialists for bigger work that does.

Our minor plumbing and electrical services include:

• Swapping out faucets, showerheads, or basic shut-off valves when you can access them

• Replacing toilets, supply lines, and wax rings when they start leaking or wobbling

• Swapping out light fixtures, adding basic ceiling lights, replacing broken switches and outlets

• Installing dimmer switches, smart thermostats, or smart doorbells if they're compatible with your existing wiring

• Sorting out common small issues like tripped breakers or loose outlets, and sending you to an electrician if we find anything that looks like it might be a bigger deal

We don't do full-panel upgrades, knob-and-tube replacements, or gas work ourselves because these must be done by a licensed pro to ensure they're safe and meet Saskatchewan codes.

Exterior Maintenance, Decks & Curb Appeal in Moose Jaw

Living in Moose Jaw means your house has to put up with some pretty tough weather - those freeze-thaw cycles in the spring, heavy snowmelt, and strong prairie winds can turn small problems into big repair bills if you don't keep up with the maintenance.

We've got a range of exterior work to keep your house looking good and safe - decks, fences, doors, and windows. We take care of small commercial properties too, like storefronts on Main Street North. We usually schedule most exterior work between April and October because of the weather - but we can tackle some jobs in the winter if it's safe to do so.

In the sections below, we talk about:

• Deck & Fence Work

• Doors & Windows

• Outside Repairs & Seasonal Maintenance

Deck & Fence Work

Wood structures out here take a beating from sun, snow, and moisture - regular attention is the best way to keep them looking safe and in good nick.

Our deck and fence work includes:

• Swapping out rotten or cracked deck boards and stairs

• Tightening up any loose railings or posts to make sure your deck is safe to use

• Repairing or rebuilding damaged fence panels and gates around your yard

We'll also make sure to give your deck a good cleaning to make it look as good as new.* Getting Your Decks and Fences Ready for Staining or Painting: washing, scraping off any loose paint, and some gentle sanding to get 'em looking good as new.

• Tackling Simple Deck Skirting and Lattice Jobs to Give Your Property a Little More Oomph - and keep critters from getting into your yard.

Most Moose Jaw properties sit on decent-sized city lots, about 50 feet, with treated lumber fences that, after a harsh winter, could use some TLC - especially if they're a few years old.

Doors and Windows

Drafty doors and wonky frames make a real dent in your heating bill during Moose Jaw's long, cold winter. Getting these issues sorted out can save you a pretty penny on every utility bill.

Our door and window services are designed to help, including:

• Getting exterior doors and storm doors adjusted so they close properly and latch securely, every time

• Replacing worn-out weatherstripping and thresholds to keep the cold air out - and the warm air in

• Re-caulking window and door trim to keep out moisture and make your home more energy efficient

• Tightening up loose hinges, handles, and deadbolts on entry doors and patio doors

• Installing peepholes and basic security hardware for a little extra peace of mind

We can also advise on whether a window unit needs a full replacement by a window contractor or if a simple fix will do the trick - sometimes just a little TLC can extend the life of your windows by years.

Exterior Repairs and Seasonal Maintenance

Those small exterior issues can quickly turn into costly problems if you don't catch 'em early - especially with all the snowmelt and heavy spring rains we get around here.

Our exterior repair and seasonal maintenance services include:

• Cleaning gutters and downspouts in spring and fall to make sure water is draining properly away from your foundation

• Securing loose siding, trim, and soffits before the wind and rain come knocking

• Touching up paint on fascia, trim, and steps to keep your wood protected

• Patching minor chips in concrete and installing grab bars or railings where needed

• Doing all the seasonal tasks, like putting up and taking down window screens and getting your home ready for winter (removing hoses, shutting off exterior taps, etc.).

After a big wind or hailstorm, we can do a basic exterior check, make any minor repairs needed, and flag any serious damage that needs to be sent to a roofer. Catching issues early prevents them from becoming costly emergencies.

Property Management and Landlord Support in Moose Jaw

Moose Jaw's got a pretty active rental market, especially around Saskatchewan Polytechnic and downtown, making it crucial for business owners and landlords. Landlords and property managers need to be able to get repairs sorted out quickly to keep properties in good shape and minimize vacancy time.

Here's how we can help property owners and managers:

• Doing multiple small repairs in one visit - handrails, drywall patches, leaky faucets, and caulking

• Doing a quick "between tenant" tidy - wall repairs, paint touch-ups, minor flooring fixes, and basic safety checks (smoke and CO detector tests, loose railing checks)

• Keeping you in the loop with email checklists, simple job notes, and before and after photos if you want

• Offering scheduled maintenance visits for common areas in small rental buildings and four-plexes

• Ensuring quality work across all your units, so your standards stay consistent

This service works great for local owners and out-of-town landlords alike who need a reliable handyman service in Moose Jaw. Having one contact you can trust means less hassle and stress for you - and more consistent quality work across your portfolio.

Property managers can give us a call at 365-444-0596 or email us at info@canadahandyman.ca to chat about your portfolios and what kind of work you need.

Your home is your safe space, and we take that very seriously - we'll do everything we can to protect you, your family, and our crew.

Our safety practices include:

• Carrying liability insurance for handyman work in Saskatchewan, and using background-checked techs

• Shutting off water and power at the right breakers and valves before we start work

• Using proper ladders, PPE (gloves, eye protection, face masks), and safe work procedures

• Following the manufacturer's instructions for installing fixtures, hardware, and appliances

• Keeping tools and materials tidy, and cleaning up before we leave

• Knowing when a job is beyond our scope - and sending you to a qualified specialist if it is

Building trust with Moose Jaw families and seniors means being upfront about what we can - and can't - safely do. If a job is beyond our expertise, we'll tell you and point you in the right direction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Moose Jaw Handyman Services

What kind of jobs do you do most often in Moose Jaw? We do a lot of drywall and paint touch-ups, door repairs, faucet and toilet swaps, deck repairs, and small electrical fixture changes - basically all the day-to-day repair and maintenance stuff that keeps homes running smoothly - but often gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list.

How does your pricing work? We've got a pretty simple pricing model. We charge a minimum service fee, then it's either an hourly rate or a fixed project fee, depending on what you need done. If you've got a bunch of small jobs you want us to tackle in one go, we can offer a bundled price that often saves you money. And don't worry, you'll always get a clear written estimate before we start, with no hidden surprises.

What areas around Moose Jaw do you serve? We primarily serve Moose Jaw proper, but we also work in nearby communities like Caronport and Belle Plaine, and out to the rural areas, as long as it's within a reasonable driving distance. If you're a bit further out, we may have to add a bit more to the bill - but we'll work with you to figure out what works best for both of us.

How soon can I book an appointment? For non-essential stuff, we usually need a couple of business days to a week to get scheduled in - but that can vary depending on our current workload. If you've got something that's really urgent, we'll do our best to fit it in ASAP - just let us know what's going on, and we'll do what we can to make it happen.

Do you supply materials? We've got most of the basic stuff - screws, caulk, patching compound - that sort of thing. If you need something a bit fancier, like a new faucet or light fixture, you can either bring your own or ask us to use one of our standard options. Supplying your own fixtures can actually save you a bit of cash - around 15% or so - and ensures that you get exactly what you want.

What payment methods do you accept? We take e-Transfer, credit cards, and most other common payment methods. Once the work is done, you'll receive a clear, itemized invoice to ensure everything is taken care of.

Are your handymen insured and background-checked? Yeah - all of our guys have liability insurance for residential handyman work, and we've run a background check on each and every one of them. Your safety and peace of mind are our top priorities, alongside delivering quality work.

Got a question that's not on this list? Give us a ring at 365-444-0596 or drop us an email at info@canadahandyman.ca - we're always happy to chat about your project and answer any questions you might have.
