Finishing My Son's Room

Oddjob.ca was great from start to finish helping me with my son's room. The job was to scrape old LED lights off the wall, patch, prime and paint where necessary, re-hang a very heavy painting in another spot and put up three floating shelves. I booked the job easily, the contractor came shorty after I booked the job, and he as very professional, flexible and courteous. He was also very tidy, clean and thorough. The job was finished perfectly. I highly recommend them.

Terrific, professional service

I had tried to DIY-install shelves on my bedroom wall and failed. The shelves sat there for a while until I decided to something about them and call OddJob.ca ... so glad I did. I used the online booking service and added a couple of additional jobs. Two days later, Geoff arrived from OddJob.ca and took care of the shelves AND explained to me why the plugs I used didn't work (educating me! turns out I needed metal plugs). installed a curtain hook and two garage organizing clamps that had languished in my garage for two years. Professional, prompt and kind.

Honey-do, DONE!

ODDJOB.CA lived up to their name, taking care of a variety of small tasks around my loft! Electrical (replacing a faulty light switch, installing a dimmer switch); Plumbing (checking a leaky faucet, caulking the shower fixture), General (installing a curtain rod), Clean-up (removal of old construction bits from a high shelf). Each of these Odd Jobs was taken care of with dispatch!
From start to finish each person who interacted with me was professional and efficient. What a relief to have these tasks DONE!

Kitchen faucet replacement

Reached out for a job for replacing kitchen faucet. The customer service rep helped me through the process and sent a very clear quote and breakdown. It was extremely simple and straight forward. Price is very reasonable. The response was fast too. Everything was done professionally. They will definitely be my go to company for all my future home reno projects!

bathtub recalling

This review is for recaulking 3 sides of a bathtub, which involved removing the old grout and replacing it with new.
The technician was professional and did a great job. On arrival, we discussed the scope of the work. After speaking with him, I could tell he was experienced and knew what he was doing. He also showed photos of previous jobs, which really helped and gave me confidence that we were on the same page. The caulking was done well-straight, evenly applied & not too thick.
He came prepared with all necessary tools. It took under an hour to do the work, once finished, he cleaned up without leaving any trace of mess. I was very happy with the end result.

Getting an estimate was simple. After submiting my requirements online. a quote was received within 2 days. Once accepting the quote, a deposit was made to secure an appointment.

All communication was done by email. The woman that took care of the booking had a friendly, positive, courteous manner. She always replied promptly to questions, usually within an hour or less.

The rating would have been 10/10 if the technician had arrived on time or at least within 10-15 min of the scheduled time, instead of half an hour later Although ODDJOB did send notification that he was enroute and expected to arrive within 30 min. it was only sent a few minutes prior to the scheduled time.
In respect for other peoples time, a suggestion would be to send notification of ETA 45 -60 min prior to the scheduled time, not a few min. before.
I've had this type of job done before by another company, and glad I found ODDJOb and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again,

More about ODDJOB.CA

ABOUT US

Odd Job Handyman Services began in 2008 with one man and his truck. It's since grown to be one of the largest and most reliable contractors in Toronto, serving thousands of homeowners and businesses throughout the city. Since 2017 ODDJOB.CA has held the "Best of" by Homestars, the largest network of home professionals in Canada.

Odd Job offers a wide range of services including drywall, painting, tiling, flooring, millwork, hanging, junk removal, basic plumbing and all general repairs. The work performed by Odd Job is covered by a two-year warranty.

The staff at Odd Job is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, and every member has been background-and-identity-checked. They're hand-selected from the "best of the best" in local professional circles (each with at least three positive references) and subjected to a series of in-shop tests before they're admitted into the team.

HISTORY

It all started with Justin George, an exceptionally-handy property manager who had great difficulty convincing professional contractors to visit his building for "small jobs." Justin, a red seal tradesman, was so tired of contractors telling him "it wasn't worth their time" that he was forced to take care of most of the repairs and maintenance himself.

He realized he was far from the only person who was in this predicament. There were many people without the time, the tools or the talent to recaulk their shower stall or hang their favorite paintings.

Not everyone trusts the mystery men on Craigslist and Kijiji, and so Justin wanted to provide them a professional option. "It might be a small job, but it's a big deal," Justin said, "People need a company that treats it that way."

Mr. George graduated from George Brown College with a degree in mechanical engineering and from the University of Western Ontario in 2011 with a degree in technological education, manufacturing and construction. He is an Accredited Manufacturing and Construction Educator and a member in good standing of the Association of Certified Handyman Professionals (ACHP). He loves cats, guitar and building things (anything). His most important values are honesty, quality and consistency and his motto is: "There's always a way to get the job done right."
