ODDJOB.CA

Our front door was not latching properly, so I was looking for someone who could replace the entire door frame and searched HomeStars. Odd Job popped up as a well-reviewed service, so I sent them an email. Given the basic job outline, they provided a rough estimate, which I verified against friends I have who have had similar services performed and found it to be within an acceptable range.

It took a couple of weeks to schedule the Odd Job workers to come out, owing to a long turnaround time between them requesting photos of the job to be performed and me finding time to take those photos and send them. In that time, we also established that it might be possible to do *less* than a full frame replacement, but that we would see what the workers said when they came out.

Finally, the work was scheduled to start on a Thursday between 10:30 and noon; the first technician arrived at 10:40 to start assessing the work to be done and the second arrived at 11:00. They talked through what might be done and expressed confidence that they would be able to repair the latching problem without having to replace the frame or damage the door. By 12:30, they had done exactly that. The job was done so well that my wife thought that the door was sticking…not realizing that both latches on the door actually worked, which they have not done since we moved into the house almost seven years ago.

I am now collecting other odd jobs to be performed and will schedule more time with the folks from Odd Job—they did their jobs *very* well. I would highly recommend them to others.
