“As a Building Manager, I highly suggest Summit Handyman Services. Brody has been amazing at taking care of multiple unit repairs for my building and my tenants love him. He arrives on time, is prepared, professional, friendly and does quality work. His communication and invoicing have also been great. If I was smart, I would be telling everyone he is terrible so that he does not get so busy that he cannot take care of my projects. Thanks Brody, you rock!”

The six answers your file needs.
A strata or a management company in BC cannot hire a contractor on trust alone. WorkSafeBC clearance, coverage, and who carries which risk all have to land in the file before the first work order. Here are the six answers procurement asks for. Anything still marked pending gets confirmed with you in writing before I open a work order.
- WorkSafeBC account and clearance letterI hold an account and I have sent clearance letters to property managers several times. In BC the letter has to be addressed to the building or the management company, or you can be left liable for a contractor's unpaid premiums. Ask and it comes before the first work order.Letter on request
- Liability coverageInsured. You get the certificate and the coverage figure from me in writing, for your file.Certificate on request
- Naming you on the policyWhether the strata corporation or the management company can be named as additional insured for account work.[Brody to confirm]
- What I hand offGas work needs a Certificate of Qualification in BC and panel work needs a licensed electrician and a permit. Those go to the right trade and I say so before the work order opens.Named up front
- Invoicing turnaround and termsInvoiced on completion. Net 30 for management companies that need it; otherwise e-transfer the day the work is done. One itemized, GST-registered invoice per job, or grouped to suit your accounting (GST # 79853 7957 RT0001).On completion
- Response commitmentWritten reply within 24 hours. I'm on the tools most of the day, so text is fastest. The form gets you a written estimate.In writing
What managers say after I leave.
Real reviews from a building manager and a rental-property owner across the Lower Mainland.

Aspire Langley · Building repairs
“Brody completed a cabinet repair at my rental property. My tenants were impressed with his service, stating that he arrived right on time, did a great job, and was very courteous. I appreciated that he was very responsive, fit my repair into his schedule quickly and provided me with an update when the work was completed along with pictures. Thanks, Brody!”

Completion photos and one itemized, GST-registered invoice for your file. Refer back to it any time.
What managers ask before the first work order.
How does invoicing work for an account?
One itemized, GST-registered invoice per job, or grouped on a schedule that suits your accounting (Business # 79853 7957). Every work order ships with before-and-after photos, so you have a record for the file and the strata minutes.
Do you carry insurance?
Insured. What a building has to put in its file before it hires anyone, the clearance letter, the certificate, and whether the strata can be named on the policy, is listed in the procurement file above. Each of those answers comes from me in writing before the first work order.
Can you handle tenant turnovers on a deadline?
Yes. Make-ready between tenants is core account work: patch, paint, fixtures, hardware, done before the next move-in. Give me the move-out date and I schedule to it.
What about work that needs a licensed trade?
Licensed electrical panel work, gas, and major plumbing go to the right licensed trade. I tell you up front and can coordinate with your preferred sub. Everything else on a typical work order I do myself.
Is there a minimum for account work?
The $200 minimum per job still applies, but for accounts it usually disappears into a grouped work order: several small fixes in one visit instead of a call-out per item.
Which buildings do you cover?
Langley, Surrey, White Rock, Aldergrove, Abbotsford, and Cloverdale. If your portfolio spans a few of those, one contact covers them all.
Start me on one building. Judge the account on the first work order.
Tell me the buildings, the units, and the kind of work you send out. I come back in writing with how I would handle it, priced line by line. Written reply within 24 hours. I'm on the tools most of the day, so text is fastest. The form gets you a written estimate.
