Gutter & yard work in Markham, Ontario

New builds settle in their first winters — book a handyman in spring for doors, trim and drywall touch-ups. Markham collects yard material every other week from April to the end of October in kraft paper bags, open containers or bundles under 1.2 m, 18 kg each at most. Grass clippings are not taken. Trees 20 cm or more in diameter at breast height on private property are protected by Markham’s Tree Preservation By-law 2023-164; removing one needs a permit from the City.

Snow

Markham plows every sidewalk within 24 hours once 5 cm has fallen, and its windrow assistance program clears the end of the driveway for eligible residents 60 and over. The City asks residents not to push snow back onto the road.

FAQ

Outdoor 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.
