No lead fees. You never pay to see a task or to make an offer on one.
The posted budget is the poster’s starting point. Your offer is yours.
The poster’s money is held by Taskly before you start the work.
Charged only when you complete a task. Nothing is deducted for quoting.
Payment releases when the poster confirms, or automatically 3 days after the work is done.
Open tasks are public. Filter by category and area, or let new ones find you.
Say what you would charge and how you would approach it. Quoting is free.
The poster confirms and payment releases — automatically after 3 days if they do not.
The problem with small repairs has never been finding them, it is finding enough of them close together to make the day worth driving. Tasks here carry the poster's own budget and their address, so you can build a run of four in one area rather than crossing the city for one shelf.
Mounting, assembly, a door that will not latch, the picture rail somebody has been meaning to fix since spring. Mostly under two hours and mostly things a person with a drill and some judgement can do properly. The awkward ones — old plaster, no stud where the bracket needs one — are worth flagging in your offer.
Mississauga was built as a city of arterials. Most of it went up after 1970 in subdivisions hung off six-lane roads, so two addresses three kilometres apart can be twenty minutes and two left turns from each other. The exceptions are Port Credit and Streetsville, village main streets the city grew around rather than over.
Toronto Pearson sits in Mississauga, not in Toronto, and the employment lands wrapped around it — the Airport Corporate Centre, the Dixie and Britannia corridors — are warehouses, hotels and offices rather than houses. Work there means a loading bay, a freight lift and a security desk, on a site that runs shifts. It is a different day from a residential call in Erin Mills, and no other municipality here has that inside its boundary.
Port Credit and Streetsville were villages long before Mississauga was incorporated as a city in 1974, and they kept the housing that goes with it: narrow lots, detached garages down a shared drive, and main streets where a vehicle has to stop on the road. Across the rest of the city the driveway is wide, the garage is attached and the access question never comes up.
Mississauga is a lower-tier city inside the Region of Peel, so waste collection and the water service belong to the Region while the building permit and the noise by-law belong to the City. A clearance, a renovation or anything that runs past the quiet hours here involves two levels of local government. In Toronto or Hamilton it would involve one.
Tasks come from City Centre, Port Credit, Streetsville, Erin Mills, Meadowvale and Cooksville. You set the area you travel to, so you only see the ones you would actually take.
Questions
The ones people in this trade actually ask before they sign up.
Taskly is new in the GTA. Fewer Taskers means your offer actually gets read instead of sitting behind two hundred others — and the people here first will hold the first reviews.
Every word of that is true, and it is the argument no big platform can copy.
