CARTER HANDYMAN SERVICES
Lightbulbs, gutters, and everything in between.
No job too small. Friendly, reliable hourly help for seniors and busy homeowners.
I’m here to help!
Do you have a list of little things around the house that need doing, but you can’t (or can no longer) get to them?
Maybe it’s a running toilet, a leaky faucet, or a door that sticks every time you close it. Maybe it’s a burned-out lightbulb in a ceiling too high to reach, gutters full of leaves, or a loose handle that’s been annoying you for months. Or perhaps you’d feel safer with grab bars in the bathroom or a handrail by the stairs.
These aren’t big jobs, and you shouldn’t need a contractor for them. That’s where I come in. I’m Kevin, and I help with the small stuff, by the hour, so you can stop worrying about the list and get back to enjoying your home.
For the adult kids that are helping an aging parent stay safe and comfortable at home? I can help with that too.
How does billing work?
I keep it simple: I charge by the hour, and I serve Orillia and the surrounding area.
Only have one little job, like a burned-out lightbulb? No problem. But before I come, take a look around. There may be a few other things on your list I can take care of during my visit.
$45 per hour (minimum 1 hour)
Outside of Orillia? No problem. Let me know where you are and we can discuss a rate that works great for you and me!
Meet Kevin
I was raised in Orillia, and I’ve spent most of my adult life here, so I know this area and the people in it.
I grew up with a mom who was an emergency room nurse and a dad who owned his own garage and body shop. From her, I learned to be fast thinking and good in a pinch. From him, I learned to roll up my sleeves, take pride in my work, and never leave a job half done. I was in the shop helping my dad as soon as I was old enough to hold a wrench.
Over the years, I’ve picked up plenty of hands-on know-how in plumbing, carpentry, basic electrical, and more. I’m not a big contractor, and I don’t want to be. I’m the person you call for the little things that need doing, and I’ll treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat my parents’ home.
If you’ve got a list, I’d be glad to help you get through it.
And yes…I’m fully insured.
