Welcome to your guide for home repairs in Vancouver. You need things fixed. We provide the help. This guide explains how pricing works. It covers common repairs for your home or condo. Read this to plan your next project.
Understanding Handyman Rates in Vancouver
You want to know the cost before you book. We keep pricing simple. You pay for the time you use.
Our rate is $120 for the first hour. You pay $85 for each additional hour after that. This covers the labour for your repairs. You pay for materials separately. This system works for small tasks. It also works for long lists of repairs.
First, check your to-do list. Then, count the tasks. Group them together to save money. One visit handles many small issues. This is efficient for homeowners in the West End and Yaletown. It is also good for residents in Kerrisdale.
Drywall Repair Costs and Steps
Drywall gets damaged easily. Furniture hits walls. Water leaks cause stains. You need a smooth finish again.
First, identify the hole. Then, cut away the loose pieces. Install a patch or a new piece of board. Apply joint compound. Let the compound dry. Sand the surface until it is flat. Apply a second coat if needed. Sand again. Then, prime the area. Finally, paint the wall to match.
Small holes take about one hour. Larger repairs take more time because of drying. We handle drywall in East Vancouver and South Vancouver. We also serve the Westside. You pay $120 for the first hour of repair. Then, you pay $85 for any extra time needed. This is cheaper than hiring a full drywall company for a small patch.
Faucet and Fixture Installation
Faucets leak over time. Finishes wear out. You want a new look for your kitchen or bath.
First, turn off the water valves. Then, disconnect the old supply lines. Remove the old faucet. Clean the sink surface. Place the new faucet in the hole. Tighten the mounting nuts. Connect the water lines. Turn the water back on. Check for leaks.
This task usually takes one to two hours. It is a common request in Yaletown condos. It is also frequent in Kitsilano homes. You pay $120 for the start. Then, you pay $85 if the job lasts longer. We install faucets in Burnaby and Richmond too.
TV Mounting and Tech Setup
You bought a new TV. You want it on the wall. You want the wires hidden.
First, find the wall studs. Then, mark the height for the mount. Drill holes into the studs. Bolt the bracket to the wall. Attach the arms to the TV. Lift the TV onto the bracket. Secure the safety screws. Then, plug in your devices.
This service is popular in the West End and North Vancouver. We also do this in West Vancouver. A basic mount takes about one hour. Specialized mounts take more time. You pay $120 for the first hour. Then, you pay $85 for any additional time. We also set up smart home devices. We install cameras and doorbells. We help with smart thermostats too.
Repair vs. Replace Decisions
You must decide if you should fix a thing or buy a new one.
First, look at the damage. A door with a small scratch needs repair. Sand the scratch. Fill it. Paint it. A door with a hole might need replacement. Buy a new door. Then, we install it.
Check your faucets. A small leak might need a new washer. Replace the washer. Then, test the faucet. If the faucet is old, buy a new one. We install the new one for you.
Check your deck in South Main St. A rotten board needs replacement. Pull the old board. Then, install a new board. We do this in North Vancouver and West Vancouver.
Condo and Strata Maintenance
Living in a condo requires specific care. You live in Yaletown or Kitsilano. You have rules to follow.
First, check your strata bylaws. Some repairs need approval. Then, book your service. We help with common condo issues. We fix leaking toilets. We repair cabinet hinges. We replace light fixtures. We also install portable AC kits.
Condo owners in the West End often need help with space. We assemble furniture. We mount shelves. We hang mirrors. You pay $120 for the first hour. Then, you pay $85 for extra hours. This keeps your condo in top shape.
