Practical Repairs. Real Support. Confidence Built In.
Hey There!
I’m Tammy — the handywoman you call when you’re ready to stop putting off those projects. I help professional women, homeowners, and cottagers handle the repairs, small builds, and maintenance that keep your home running smoothly.
But here’s the difference: with me, you have options.
- Homeowner Walkthroughs – Perfect for first-time buyers or recent movers who want to know their home inside and out.
- Teach & Go – We tackle it together so you learn the skills hands-on.
- Workshops – Small group or one-on-one learning, built to boost confidence with tools and repairs.
- Done 4 You – I take care of the job start to finish.
Canadian Handywoman proudly serves homes across Eastern Ontario. Travel fees for out-of-area visits will be applied fairly and always confirmed before work begins.
No fluff. No judgment. Just real help for the real stuff that slows you down. Whether it’s a nagging To-Do list, a corner you keep avoiding, or that “I’ll get to it someday” project — I’m here to help you handle it now.
Let’s make your space work for you — mess and all.
