Home & Yard Maintenance Program

The Seniors' Home and Yard Maintenance Program is referral service provided by the Yukon Council on Aging. Its goal is to allow seniors, elders and disabled persons to remain in their own homes by making available a pool of workers to assist in doing those jobs that every homeowner faces.  The price for each job is negotiated directly between the Client and the Worker. 

Some examples are: 
  • lawn and yard maintenance including lawn mowing, raking,
  • cleaning flowerbeds, or gardens,
  • assisting with planting,
  • splitting and stacking wood,
  • minor carpentry or painting,
  • snow shovelling, and
  • window washing.

Examples inside the home include:
  • vacuuming,
  • painting,
  • minor electrical jobs,
  • minor carpentry jobs, and
  • dusting and washing walls.

The price for each job is negotiated directly between the Client and the Worker. In an effort to supply a secure workforce to our Clients, all worker applicants must have a background check completed by the RCMP.

If you have any questions, or for further information please contact us at our phone number:  667 - HELP (4357). Email: ycoahy@yknet.ca



Our office hours are:
9:00 AM to 1:00 PM,
