Repairs, installs, assembly, carpentry, painting and outdoor fixes for South Slope homes. One visit, as much of your list as we can.
Your Handyman in South Slope
South Slope runs down Burnaby’s southern hillside toward the Fraser River, with streets of family homes and open views to the south.
Detached houses from the 1950s to the 1980s, newer rebuilds and duplexes, many on sloped lots with stairs and retaining walls.
In South Slope, 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.

Local tip for South Slope
Swapping old round door knobs for levers is a quick upgrade that also helps anyone with sore hands or arthritis.
Typical lists
What a South Slope 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 South Slope basement suite: patch and paint, adjust the doors, replace worn hardware, re-caulk the shower and fix the closet track.

Can you do outdoor and indoor jobs on the same visit in South Slope?
Yes. We schedule outdoor work for the driest part of the day and indoor jobs around it, so a South Slope visit still gets done if it rains.
