About us
Maintain It is a full-service facility maintenance company working alongside BUILD IT, an Ontario general contractor. We keep restaurant, retail, and commercial facilities running at their best, with a focus on quick-service restaurant locations.
About the role
You're the person who shows up and fixes it. About 80% of this job is hands-on repair work you do yourself. The other 20% is coordinating licensed trades when a job needs one, then making sure their work is done right before the ticket closes.
The Handyman reports directly to the Operations Manager and works closely with subcontractors/trades, on-site client contacts, and the broader Maintain It team.
What you'll do
- Patch and finish drywall to match existing texture and paint
- Repair and replace tile, flooring sections, and ceiling tiles
- Remove and replace failed caulking around fixtures, counters, washrooms, kitchens, windows, and exterior joints
- Repair small areas of concrete: cracks, chips, spalling, and trip hazards on sidewalks, curbs, and pads
- Adjust and replace door closers, hinges, and hardware; repair washroom stalls, partitions, FRP panels, and dumpster enclosure gates
- Handle minor plumbing and electrical fixes
- Assess issues on arrival and decide whether to fix directly or bring in a trade
- Schedule, supervise, and verify licensed trade work (electrical, plumbing, HVAC)
- Communicate clearly with on-site client contacts about what was done and what's next
- Document every job with reports and photos
- Track your tools, equipment, and materials, and flag supply needs early
What you bring
- 4+ years of hands-on experience in general repair, handyman, or facility maintenance work
- Your own full set of hand and power tools
- Valid driver's licence and a reliable vehicle
- Comfort working on ladders
- Availability for weekends, overnights, and late hours (we work around restaurant operating hours to avoid disrupting our clients)
- Organized, reliable, and professional with clients
- Comfortable using apps and digital tools for work orders and reporting
Pay: $28–$36/hour
Work Schedule
This role requires schedule flexibility. Work is regularly scheduled outside of client operating hours to minimize disruption to restaurant operations, and will include weekend work, overnight work, and late hours. The role involves travel between client sites.
