Home Maintenance Services in Durham Region
Small fixes before big bills.
Seasonal upkeep, odd jobs, preventative fixes. The stuff that keeps your home running smoothly year after year.
What we offer
Nobody gets excited about maintenance, but it's the work that stops a house from slowly falling apart. Eaves troughs fill up, weatherstripping wears out, caulking dries and cracks, hinges work loose and screens tear.
We do home maintenance on a schedule or whenever you call, for homeowners in Durham Region, Kawartha Lakes and Northumberland. It's basically a tune-up for your house.
Pedro spent 15 years as a Home Inspector. He knows what to check, when to check it, and what happens when it gets skipped.
Our process
Walkthrough
We go through the house inside and out and note what needs attention now, what can wait, and what's fine as it is.
Priority list
You get our findings sorted into urgent, soon and can wait. You decide what gets done now.
Get it done
We work through the list, usually in one visit, sometimes two.
Book the next round
If you want ongoing maintenance, we suggest seasonal check-ins, at least once in spring and once in fall.
Cost & pricing guide
A half-day maintenance visit (3 to 4 hours) covering a bunch of small jobs usually costs $200 to $350.
A full day, for bigger properties or longer lists, runs $400 to $600.
Regular maintenance almost always costs less than waiting for something to break and paying for an emergency repair.
Why choose us
- A Home Inspector's eye. Pedro catches things most people walk right past.
- You set the priorities. You decide what gets done and when.
- Seasonal visits if you want them. A spring and fall check keeps you ahead of problems.
- One call for all of it. No lining up separate contractors for separate jobs.
Home Maintenance: FAQ
What does home maintenance include?
Caulking touch-ups, weatherstripping, tightening hardware, oiling hinges, changing filters, testing smoke and CO detectors, looking for signs of water damage, cleaning gutters and checking decks.
How often should I schedule maintenance?
For most homes, twice a year is about right: once in spring and once in fall. Older homes can benefit from a visit every quarter.
Do you offer maintenance plans?
We don't sell formal subscription plans. Many of our clients just book us for a recurring visit each season.
Is maintenance really worth the cost?
Yes. Replacing a $10 piece of weatherstripping now heads off a $500 jump in your heating bill over the winter. Cleaning gutters twice a year prevents $5,000+ in foundation or fascia damage.
Client reviews
Read all reviews →“Have dealt with Pedro over the last year, and work has been excellent! As an out of town landlord, having a reliable handyman is essential.”
“Pedro is an excellent handyman and we highly recommend him. He has been helping us for the last four years and his work is always top quality.”
“Pedro made himself available to respond to our call. He is very knowledgeable and most important friendly. He opened our pool and trained us on the day to day maintenance. He was called for the pool but on his way, he fixed several things that we were not even aware. GREAT SERVICE! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.”
