Repairs, installs, assembly, carpentry, painting and outdoor fixes for Deer Lake homes. One visit, as much of your list as we can.
Your Handyman in Deer Lake
The Deer Lake area surrounds Deer Lake Park, home to the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts and the Burnaby Village Museum.
Larger detached houses on big, leafy lots, many from the 1950s to the 1970s, with long driveways, mature gardens and wide decks.
In Deer Lake, most of our work is in detached houses that have been around for a few decades. Doors stick as houses settle, trim gets damaged, decks and fences take a beating from the wet season, and walls collect cracks and holes.
Send us your list and we’ll work through it in one visit, inside and out. We fix what’s there carefully, match older materials where we can, and leave your home clean.

How a Visit Runs in Deer Lake
Deer Lake houses usually have room to set up a work area in the garage or driveway, which keeps cutting and sanding outside. We cover walkways and clean up the driveway before we go.
Local tip for Deer Lake
Near the lake, morning damp lingers. Plan exterior paint and stain work for afternoons in the drier months.
Typical lists
What a Deer Lake Visit Often Looks Like
Three lists we see again and again. Yours will be different, and that’s fine.
The fall list
Replace two soft deck boards, re-secure the stair railing, weatherstrip the back door, re-caulk the windows on the weather side and re-hang the sagging side gate before the rain.
The inside list
Plane the bedroom door that sticks every winter, patch the settling crack over the hallway door, replace a run of baseboard and repaint the room once it’s all done.
The suite list
Between tenants in a Deer Lake basement suite: patch and paint, adjust the doors, replace worn hardware, re-caulk the shower and fix the closet track.

FAQ
Handyman Questions in Deer Lake
Do you repair older houses in Deer Lake?
Yes. Most of our Deer Lake work is in houses built between the 1950s and the 1980s. We repair doors, trim, drywall and plaster, decks and fences to suit the house.
Can you do outdoor and indoor jobs on the same visit in Deer Lake?
Yes. We schedule outdoor work for the driest part of the day and indoor jobs around it, so a Deer Lake visit still gets done if it rains.

Tell us your timing when you send your list. We book visits Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm, and we’ll find the earliest time that works.
