Write the job the way a dispatcher reads it

A good request answers four things: what, where, when, and what makes it harder. “Fridge not cooling” is a start. “French-door fridge, model number from the door plate, freezer fine, fridge section warm since Sunday, Barrhaven K2J” lets the company bring the right part and quote on the first call.

Add the details that change the price. For a move, that is the number of floors, an elevator to book and the bulky pieces. For a handyman job, it is the full list, so one visit covers the minimum charge. For a renovation, say whether walls come out, a window gets bigger or plumbing moves: the City lists those as building permit work.

Photos help. Mention in the request that you have them, and the company will tell you where to send them.

Ask these on the call

Five questions cover most jobs in this city:

  1. What exactly does the quote include, and what costs extra?
  2. Is there a minimum charge or a travel fee?
  3. Can I have the estimate in writing?
  4. When can you start, and how long will it take?
  5. What happens if something breaks or the job runs over?

For moves and home renovation work, Ontario law backs questions 3 and 5. A contract over $50 has to be in writing, and the company may charge at most 10% above the estimate in that contract unless you agree to extra work. A contract signed at your home has a 10-day cooling-off period.

Where the numbers come from

Every range on 613 Pros comes from a public source: a company’s own price list, a directory guide for Ottawa, or a City of Ottawa fee schedule. The source sits under each table with its date. Repair shops in Ottawa publish their visit fee and quote the repair after diagnosis, so our appliance pages show the visit fee only.

Who does the work

613 Pros is a request desk for Ottawa. Your request goes to one independent local company. That company calls you, quotes, does the job and answers for it.

02What should I write in the request?
