Questions people ask
Search your question, or ask us and we answer plainly.
What kind of jobs do you take on?
Anything from a single TV mount or a drywall patch to a full kitchen or bathroom remodel. If it is on the services list above, we do it. If you are not sure, ask; we will tell you plainly whether it is something we handle.
Is the estimate really free?
Yes. Estimates we give online, by email or by phone are free, with no obligation, and so are some home visits that we approve with you beforehand. We never charge for an estimate unless we have told you about the fee first and you have agreed. A fee of at least $150 CAD plus HST may apply when an estimate needs long travel and measuring, an inspection to find the cause of a problem, or other work that is not suited to a free estimate. If you agree to it, a deposit of at least $50 confirms the booking and the rest is paid when the visit is done. If you approve the job within 30 days, everything you paid for the estimate is credited to the total cost of your job. See our Terms and Conditions for details.
Should I send photos?
Photos help a lot. A few pictures of the area and anything you want changed let us give a more accurate estimate before we visit.
Where do you work?
We are based in Whitchurch-Stouffville and work across York Region, with jobs in Toronto and Durham Region as well. The full list of towns is above.
How is plumbing and electrical work handled?
Dishwasher hookups, vanity connections, pot lights, receptacles and smart hardware are carried out by licensed professional tradespeople who work with us. You deal with one team and one estimate.
Are you insured, and is the work guaranteed?
We carry liability insurance. Different work items receive different warranties, and not every service comes with one. If a warranty applies, its term is written in your quote before the job starts, and you can choose to waive it. We do not warrant repairs to old appliances or items that carry the manufacturer's own warranty.
What does a handyman cost in Ontario?
Our minimum service charge is $150 for work of up to one hour. Beyond that, time is billed hourly or we agree a set price with you for the whole job, whichever suits it better. Larger jobs are always quoted as a fixed written price, so there are no surprises on the invoice. Prices are in Canadian dollars and Ontario HST (13%) is added. The estimate itself is free online, by email or by phone.
What should I check before hiring a handyman?
Experience with your kind of job, insurance, clear communication, a written price before work starts, and recent reviews from people nearby. Ask who does the plumbing and electrical. For us it is licensed tradespeople, and we tell you that up front.
Which flooring is best?
It depends on the room. Vinyl plank is water-resistant and forgiving, good for kitchens, bathrooms and basements. Laminate is affordable and wears well in living areas. Tile lasts longest in wet rooms but is cold underfoot. Hardwood adds value and warmth but costs more and needs care. We help you choose and we install all of them.
Why install LED pot lights?
They light a room evenly, take no visual space, use far less power than old bulbs, and last for years. They suit low ceilings and can be aimed at artwork or a work area. Our electrician installs them to code.
Do pot lights lower my energy bill?
LED pot lights use a fraction of the power of incandescent bulbs, so lighting costs drop, especially with a dimmer. One old 100 W bulb uses about as much power as a dozen LED pot lights. Installation cost depends on ceiling access and wiring, which we see before quoting.
Pot lights or a ceiling fixture?
Pot lights give clean, even, directional light and a modern look. A ceiling fixture gives more decorative choice and is easier to change later. Many rooms use both: pot lights for general light and one fixture as the feature. We install either.
How do I change a toilet?
Shut off the water, flush, disconnect the supply, unbolt and lift the old toilet, scrape the flange, set a new wax ring, lower the new toilet onto the bolts, tighten gently, reconnect, check for leaks and caulk the base. It is doable in an afternoon with the right tools. If you would rather not, our licensed plumber does it.
My contractor left the job unfinished. What now?
Contact them in writing and keep a record. Read your contract for timelines and payment terms. Photograph the site as it stands. If they do not return, get advice on your options and have the remaining work assessed by someone else. We regularly finish jobs other people walked away from, and we start with an honest look at what is there.
Affordable ways to raise my home's value?
Fresh paint in neutral colours, modern light fixtures, new baseboards and casing, a tidy backsplash, updated vanity and taps, and vinyl or laminate flooring where the old floor is tired. Fix the small things that buyers notice first: doors, caulking, grout, switches. All of these are jobs we do.
Handyman or contractor for my job?
A handyman handles repairs and smaller installs quickly and at a lower rate. A contractor manages large, multi-trade projects. We do both sides: the small jobs ourselves and the bigger renovations with our licensed tradespeople, under one estimate.
What payment options do you offer?
Cash, e-transfer and credit card. Credit card payments carry a surcharge of up to 4% to cover the card terminal. Ontario HST of 13% applies to invoiced jobs. Ask us about splitting payment on larger projects.
Do you do washroom and bathroom remodels in Stouffville?
Yes. We remodel washrooms, bathrooms and powder rooms in Stouffville, Markham, Richmond Hill and across York Region: new vanities, glass showers, tile and lighting. Plumbing connections are done by a licensed plumber and electrical work by a licensed electrician, all under one estimate. Send photos of your washroom with your request for a free estimate.
How do I find a trusted handyman or contractor near me in Stouffville?
Tucasa Home Improvement is based in Whitchurch-Stouffville and serves Markham, Richmond Hill, Aurora, Newmarket, Vaughan, King, Uxbridge, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Scarborough, North York and Toronto. We are liability insured, have worked in the area since 2019 and have 5-star Google reviews from local customers. Ask for a free estimate online, by email or by phone.
Are your prices affordable compared with other contractors?
We aim for fair, fixed written prices with no surprises, rather than the lowest number at the cost of quality. Estimates are free online, by email and by phone, so you can compare before you decide. We quote the whole job before work starts and tell you about any change in price before we continue.
