What is an alternative to one-day painting companies in Toronto?

MARK & MEASURE provides painting and repair-led refresh work without making a one-day deadline the priority. We work efficiently, but preparation, repairs, surface condition and the finish required determine the proper scope.

Do you have a licensed electrician available?

Yes. Licensed electrical work is available for appropriate residential and commercial scopes. Electrical work is quoted separately from handyman pricing and is completed by a licensed electrician.

Can you install pot lights, LED lights, light fixtures, outlets and switches?

Licensed electrical support is available for projects such as pot-light and LED lighting updates, light fixtures, switches, dimmers, receptacles and outlets, GFCI devices and other appropriate electrical updates. Electrical scope and pricing are confirmed separately.

Who repairs drywall after an electrician or plumber opens a wall?

MARK & MEASURE can restore walls and ceilings after plumbing, electrical or other trade access. Finishing can include drywall patching, surface repair, sanding, priming, painting, trim and caulking so the area looks finished again.

Do you repair water-damaged drywall and walls?

Yes, after the leak or source of moisture has been properly resolved and the affected area is suitable for repair. We can assess water-damaged drywall or wall finishes and provide removal or patching as appropriate, surface preparation, priming and painting. Water extraction, mould remediation and active leak repair are separate specialized services.

Can you repair a water-damaged ceiling?

Once the source of the water has been resolved and the area is dry and suitable for finishing, we can assess damaged ceiling drywall or finishes for repair, preparation, primer and repainting.

Can you patch and paint after plumbing or electrical work?

Yes. Once the underlying trade work is complete, we can repair access openings in walls or ceilings and complete the drywall, preparation, primer, paint, trim and finishing required to restore the area.

Do you handle odd jobs and multiple small repairs in one visit?

Yes. Our handyman service is suited to punch lists and multiple small jobs such as hanging mirrors and shelves, curtain rods, blinds, towel bars, toilet-paper holders, hooks, cabinet hardware, door hardware, weather stripping and other practical household or property tasks.

Do you provide small-business and office maintenance in Toronto?

Yes. We help offices, shops, clinics, professional spaces and other small businesses with painting, drywall repair, caulking, trim, doors, hardware, touch-ups, odd jobs, deficiency lists and practical maintenance or refresh work.

Do you refinish wood doors and thresholds?

Wood doors, entry details and thresholds can be assessed for preparation, staining, refinishing or painting depending on the existing coating and condition.

How much does handyman service cost?

MARK & MEASURE has a $250 handyman minimum covering the first two hours. Additional handyman labour is $85 per hour per person after the included period.

How is painting priced?

Painting is separate from handyman pricing and starts at $0.99 per paintable wall square foot, per coat, plus materials. Preparation, repairs, primer, trim, doors and project conditions can affect the final scope.

Do you charge travel time or mark up materials?

The handyman clock starts on arrival rather than billing travel time to the site. Materials are charged at cost, with receipts available. Parking is additional when free parking is unavailable.
