Handyman services in Markham, Ontario

Nearly half of Markham’s homes were built in 2001 or later, around the four heritage villages — Markham Village, Unionville, Thornhill and Buttonville — where the houses are much older. In Markham that means a mix of first-winter repairs in newer homes and older doors, trim and fixtures in the rest. Anything electrical or plumbing goes to a licensed trade. Doyo books handyman help across Markham: describe the job, see the full price before you book, and pay only when it is done.

Heritage districts

Markham has four heritage conservation districts: Buttonville, Markham Village, Thornhill and Unionville. Any change to the outside of a building or property there — windows, porches, garages, additions — needs a minor or major heritage permit.

Large items

Markham picks up furniture and bulky items every other week on garbage day, up to three items, with no appointment — anything beyond that is a junk-removal job.

FAQ

Handyman in Markham: common questions

Help centre

You see the price before you book. Some jobs are a flat price, some are priced by the measure — a bedroom, a window, a square foot — and some are by the hour; the page says which, and so does the app before you confirm. Prices on this site are the full price, Doyo’s service fee included — nothing is added at checkout. Your card is held when a pro is confirmed and charged only when the job is marked complete. If the work turns out bigger, the pro has to put the new figure to you in the chat and wait for your yes — under Ontario law they cannot charge more than 10% over the estimate without your agreement.
