Maintenance Partner for Smaller Properties

Maintenance Support Sized for
Your Building — Not a Portfolio

Not every organization runs a large portfolio with its own maintenance department. Cornerstone Construction handles repairs, upkeep, and unit turnover for shelters, non-profits, and smaller property operators across Durham Region and the GTA — a licensed, insured contractor you can actually reach, sized right for one building or a handful of them.

Sized for You, Not a Portfolio

Large maintenance companies are built around hundreds of units and a call centre. Cornerstone works directly with a small number of properties — no account number, no call queue.

No In-House Maintenance Team? No Problem

Cornerstone takes the call, dispatches the right work, and manages it start to finish — the coverage of an in-house team, without the overhead of hiring one.

Licensed & Insured

A fully licensed and insured Ontario general contracting corporation, built on 35+ years of construction management experience — applied to everyday repair and upkeep work.

Why Smaller Organizations Choose Cornerstone

One contact for repairs, upkeep, and unit turnover — not five different trades to track down. Built to the same standard as our full renovation work, so a shelter or small rental property gets the same discipline as a commercial job. You get a known contractor, not an account number.

What This Isn't

This is business-hours repair and maintenance support — drywall, doors, flooring, painting, and carpentry — not a 24/7 emergency call centre. True after-hours emergencies still route to your existing on-call vendor. Cornerstone handles the routine work that keeps a building in good shape day to day.

What We Handle

Repairs & Upkeep, Under One Contact

01

Repairs & Make-Ready

Drywall repair and patching, interior and entrance door replacement, hardware repair, and general carpentry finish work — the everyday calls that keep a building presentable.

02

Flooring & Finishes

Flooring repair and replacement, painting for common areas and unit touch-ups, and finish repairs that come up between larger projects.

03

Unit Turnover

Make-ready work between residents or tenants — repairs, paint, and finish work handled on a predictable timeline so a unit doesn't sit empty.

04

Small-Scope Upgrades

Smaller renovation and upgrade work that doesn't need a full proposal package — scoped, priced, and completed without slowing down the rest of the building.

Common Questions

What Smaller Operators Ask First

How is this different from a handyman?
A handyman is set up for one homeowner at a time. Cornerstone is a licensed, insured general contracting corporation — the work is invoiced, documented, and backed by the same standards as our full renovation projects, so it holds up for an organization, a board, or an owner reviewing the file.
Do you cover after-hours emergencies?
No. This is business-hours repair and maintenance support. If you already have a 24-hour vendor for true emergencies — entrance doors, security, life-safety issues — keep them on call for that. Cornerstone handles the day-to-day repair and upkeep work in between.
What's the service area?
Durham Region and the greater GTA.
Do you work with just one building, or a small group of properties?
Either. Cornerstone is set up for organizations with one building or a handful — not a large portfolio. If your needs are bigger than that, a full-scale maintenance provider may be a better fit; we're happy to say so.
Can you also handle larger renovation work if it comes up?
Yes. Cornerstone is a full general contracting company — kitchens, bathrooms, additions, and full capital projects — so a bigger renovation can move to the same contact you already know, without bringing in a new vendor.
