Where minor plumbing repairs end and licensed work begins
What handyman-scope plumbing covers
Leaky faucets, running toilets, loose fixtures, and slow drains are the kind of small plumbing jobs we handle – they don't require altering supply lines or drain-waste-vent piping, which is licensed-plumber territory.
When it needs a licensed plumber instead
New fixture installations that involve altering plumbing, gas lines, or main water shutoffs need a licensed plumber under Ontario rules – if your job crosses that line, we'll tell you plainly rather than take it on.
A small leak doesn't stay small
A slow drip or a toilet that keeps running wastes water every single day it's ignored – most of these are a 30-minute fix once someone actually looks at it.
Where handyman scope ends
What's in scope, and what isn't
Under Ontario rules, work that alters supply lines, drain-waste-vent piping, or gas lines needs a licensed plumber, not a handyman – that’s a real regulatory line, not just a policy of ours. Leaky faucets, running toilets, loose fixtures, and slow drains fall on our side of that line, and we’ll tell you plainly if a job you call in for turns out to need a licensed trade instead.

Signs it's time to call
A dripping or hard-to-shut-off faucet, a toilet that runs constantly, a loose fixture, or a slow drain are the kind of jobs that fall within handyman scope.
What's involved
Under Ontario rules, anything that alters supply lines, drain-waste-vent piping, or gas lines needs a licensed plumber – we'll tell you plainly if that's what your job needs rather than taking it on and hoping it's fine.
Keeping it fixed
A fixture that starts dripping again after a repair is often just a worn washer or seal working loose over time – it's a quick follow-up fix, not usually a sign the original repair failed.
