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.
Richmond Hill is long and narrow. It runs north up Yonge Street from Highway 7 to the Oak Ridges Moraine and it climbs the whole way. The south end is 1970s and 1980s subdivision, the middle is heritage around the Mill Pond, and the north end is large lots on a protected landform.
The north end of Richmond Hill sits on the Oak Ridges Moraine, the ridge that divides water running south to Lake Ontario from water running north to Lake Simcoe. It is protected under its own provincial conservation plan, the lots up there are large and treed, and outdoor work — drainage, tree work, grading — runs into rules that do not apply in the south half of the same city.
Around the Mill Pond and along Yonge north of Major Mackenzie is Richmond Hill’s nineteenth-century core: frame houses on small lots, mature trees closing over the road, and no rear access to speak of. It is a few streets wide and it behaves nothing like the Jefferson and Bayview Hill subdivisions around it, where the driveway takes three vehicles.
From Highway 7 at the south boundary to the moraine at the north, Richmond Hill gains roughly a hundred metres of elevation — a real climb, not a figure of speech. It is the reason the north end can still be frozen when the south end is wet, and the reason winter work here is usually scheduled north first. Flat towns like Ajax and Pickering have no equivalent.
Tasks come from Mill Pond, Bayview Hill, Oak Ridges, Crosby, Jefferson and Langstaff. 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.
