Handyman service built for Toronto condos and lofts — mounting TVs on concrete feature walls, hanging shelves and art, installing blinds and fixtures, and small repairs, with building rules and service elevators handled.
BuildMan is a condo handyman service for Toronto and GTA condos and lofts. We mount TVs and shelves on concrete, install blinds and light fixtures, swap faucets and toilets, and handle small repairs while following your building's rules and booking the service elevator. Labour is $150 for the first hour, $280 for two hours or $410 for three, with no trip charge. Call (905) 660-9992 or request a quote.
Condos bring their own challenges: post-tension concrete you can't drill blindly, block walls that need the right anchors, and strict service-elevator windows. We work with all of it, cleanly and on schedule.
Drilling into a condo wall isn't like drilling into a house. Many Toronto towers use post-tension concrete slabs and structural block that need the right approach and anchors — get it wrong and you risk damage or an unsafe mount. Our builder-trained technicians know how condos are built, so a 65-inch TV goes onto your concrete feature wall solidly and safely.
We also handle the logistics owners dread: booking the service elevator, protecting common areas, respecting quiet hours, and cleaning up completely. Flat-rate pricing means your whole condo punch-list — TV, shelves, blinds, a wobbly faucet — gets done in one visit.
No trip charge, no hidden minimums. Most jobs wrap up the same visit. Materials billed at supplier cost.
After 3 hours: $85/hr. Hours doubled if a second technician is needed.
Condo work looks simple until you hit the building. Most Toronto towers mix poured-concrete feature walls and columns with steel-stud drywall partitions, and the two need completely different fasteners. Before we drill, we confirm which wall we are on and check it for buried conduit. On concrete we use a hammer drill with sleeve or concrete-screw anchors sized for the load; on steel studs we use toggles rated for the weight, because wood screws simply strip out of light-gauge steel.
Ceilings are a different story. Many newer towers use post-tensioned slabs with steel tendons under high tension inside the concrete. We do not drill into a ceiling or floor slab blind. For a ceiling-mounted fixture or curtain track we use the existing electrical box or the bulkhead where possible, and if a slab penetration is unavoidable we tell you it needs your property manager's approval and a scan first.
Condo windows bring their own quirks. Floor-to-ceiling glass often leaves only a thin concrete header or a drywall bulkhead to fix blinds and curtain tracks to, so we confirm the mounting surface before you buy. Shower rods and glass-door hardware in condo bathrooms are usually going into tile over concrete block or cement board, which needs a tile bit and the right anchor to avoid cracking.
Bring a list. Because we bill in flat hourly blocks, condo owners get the most from a visit by grouping jobs: a TV mount, two shelves, a dimmer and a dripping faucet often fit in one or two hours. For bigger items like water-damaged drywall or failing caulking, see condo repairs in Toronto, and for kitchens, bathrooms and flooring, our condo renovation team works under the same building rules.
Yes. We assess the wall (post-tension concrete, block or drywall) and use the correct anchors and a mount rated for your TV so it's solid and safe. Concrete mounting is one of our most common condo jobs.
We coordinate with you and your property management to book the service elevator and follow your building's work rules, insurance and quiet-hour requirements.
The same flat rates as everywhere: $150 for 1 hour, $280 for 2, $410 for 3. A typical condo visit — a TV mount plus a few smaller jobs — fits the 2- or 3-hour tier.
Yes — downtown Toronto, Liberty Village, King West, North York, Mississauga, Vaughan and beyond, at the same flat rate with no travel surcharge.
