WHO WE WORK WITH
Three Types of Clients We Serve Best
Our à la carte services are designed for people who don't need — or don't want — a full renovation package. You know what you need. We bring the licensed trade to get it done.
DIY General Contractors
You're managing your own renovation and doing some work yourself — but you need licensed trades for the regulated stuff. We slot in for just the scope you need, on your timeline.
- "I'm finishing my basement but need a licensed plumber for the bathroom rough-in"
- "I've done the demo and framing — I need an electrician to run new circuits"
- "My tile is picked out, I just need a professional installer"
Property Managers & Commercial
You manage multiple units or a commercial space and need reliable trades for targeted work — not a full renovation crew sitting around. We show up, do the job, and get out.
- "Tenant turnover — need new tile and vanity in the bathroom"
- "Restaurant washroom needs a plumbing upgrade before inspection"
- "Office lobby needs flooring and paint refresh"
Homeowners with One Job
You don't need a full reno. Maybe it's a tub-to-shower conversion, a tile backsplash, or an electrical panel upgrade. You just want one thing done properly by someone who's licensed and insured.
- "I want to convert my tub to a walk-in shower — that's it"
- "I need heated floors installed in my existing bathroom"
- "My kitchen backsplash needs replacing"
Not sure if you need a full renovation or just a single trade? Give us a call at (647) 725-9754 — we'll tell you honestly which approach saves you money. If a full reno makes more sense, we'll point you to the right page.

COMMON QUESTIONS
À La Carte Services FAQ
Answers to the most common questions about hiring individual trades. Can't find what you're looking for? Give us a call.
No. If you need one toilet installed or one wall painted, we'll do it. That said, for very small jobs (under $300), it may be more cost-effective to bundle a few tasks together. We'll always tell you the most efficient approach.
Absolutely. Many of our à la carte clients source their own tile, vanity, fixtures, or flooring and hire us for professional installation. We'll confirm your materials are suitable for the application before we start. If you need help sourcing, we can recommend suppliers.
It depends on the scope. Plumbing and electrical work that involves new rough-ins or modifications typically require permits. Simple fixture swaps usually don't. We'll tell you upfront if your job needs a permit — and if it does, we handle the application and inspection.
Handymen are great for general tasks, but Ontario law requires licensed trades for plumbing, electrical, and gas work. Our plumbers and electricians hold valid Ontario licenses. You also get liability insurance coverage and a written warranty — most handymen can't offer that.
That's exactly what à la carte is designed for. Many of our clients are DIY renovators who handle demolition, painting, and finishing themselves but need licensed plumbers and electricians for the regulated work. We slot into your project timeline.
If we discover something during the work that changes the scope (like hidden water damage behind a wall), we stop and discuss it with you before proceeding. We'll provide a revised quote for the additional work. You approve it before we continue — no surprise charges.
Yes. We work with property managers, restaurant owners, retail spaces, and office buildings. Commercial jobs may require after-hours work to avoid disrupting your business — we accommodate that. Request a commercial quote →
For standard jobs, we can usually schedule within 1–2 weeks. For priority/urgent jobs (plumbing emergencies, tenant turnovers), we offer same-week scheduling when available. Call (647) 725-9754 for availability.
