Canada's Worst Handyman - Season 3
Season 3
This time, instead of remodelling (demolishing?) units in an apartment block or constructing environmentally-friendly sheds, these hopeless handymen will tackle the unique DIY challenges associated with renovating a 100-year-old house, including plastering, plumbing, custom furniture and even electrical.

Demolition Derby
As the handymen begin smashing their way toward rehabilitation, it’s clear that they’ve got a long road ahead. First, they design their rooms. Then their skills – or lack thereof – are assessed as they build stud walls and install wall safes in each room. Or attempt to! By the end of the episode, one candidate breaks through the rubble to claim the title of “Most Improved.” In the end, however, incompetence ensures that someone else is nailed with the title of “Worst” after the first round of projects.

Totally Plastered
When the production team visited the handymen at their respective homes, they noticed that none of the handymen had functional workbenches. Well actually, Desmond did – until he used it and cut right through it with a circular saw. Now, each handyman is charged with designing and building their own workbench – but the results are dubious at best! Next, see how Reno Rehab is driving these handymen up the walls – quite literally. The century-old mansion that they are renovating has walls that are full of holes in need of patching and it’s up to the hapless handymen to begin plastering their way to a smooth finish. Then, as they shrink-wrap the windows and work together to build a kitchen shelving unit, tempers flare and one person is ejected from the group project.

Shower Stalling
In this episode, each candidate must install a shower in their guest rooms. This project turns into a marathon challenge as we find some handymen working for over seven hours to complete it. Next, the group is trained to use a router. The pros regard this tool as the handyman’s secret weapon, but in the hands of Canada’s Worst Handymen, its many uses are utterly wasted. Finally, in the group challenge, one candidate acts as the reluctant foreman to conquer drywall and hardwood. By the time they finish, one handyman is named most improved, and a new candidate hangs their head in shame as this episode’s worst.

Shut Your Hole
As these five hapless home renovators continue their stint in Rehab, they find themselves building a radiator cover that is meant to be both attractive and functional. By the end of the challenge, however, many of them find that their projects fail to measure up to either standard. As they soldier on, the handymen must also dig deep in order to correctly fix the holes in their floors, but many find themselves on shaky ground. Even hanging mirrored panels on the wall proves to be too much for this band of bad builders. Finally, for the group project, the team attempts to install flooring and cabinets. At the end of this episode, one person is named the most improved, and yet another is named this episode’s worst.

Light-Weights
In this episode, the candidates switch gears and tackle the gentler arts as they begin sewing curtains for their rooms in Canada’s Worst Bed & Breakfast. Things unravel quickly, however, and many rooms are lucky to get any form of curtain hung at all. Next, the crew attempts to tackle basic closet construction and hanging wall sconces. What should be fairly simple for an average handyman proves nearly impossible for most of these hopeless renovators. In the kitchen, work continues – as well as the arguments, struggles and blunders.

Without a Grout
The Handyman Rehabilitation centre offers a new set of challenges this week that include learning to make a tufted headboard and fixing a banister. Things really get switched around, however, for the group’s kitchen challenge as this episode’s foreman takes on grouting and then tackles the backsplash… with more than a little backlash! The kitchen challenge continues with plumbing and faucet installation, but it doesn’t look like this Bed & Breakfast will be serving breakfast from a functioning kitchen anytime soon.

Floored
In this episode, our bad builders hit the deck and complete a linoleum and carpet challenge in their personalized Bed & Breakfast rooms. The handymen must install peep holes on the doors and add door knobs, which only serve to prove just how bad these handymen still are. As they put the finishing touches on their rooms, they soon move on to finishing the kitchen walls.

The Guests Arrive
Our handymen are given a chance to let their creativity shine as they are given free rein to accessorize their rooms. Some handymen take this opportunity to show their creative flair – and others use it to hide their mistakes. Next, everyone must take a chair and build it according to flat-pack instructions in order to finish the kitchen furniture for the B & B. Once the projects are completed and the doors to the Bed & Breakfast are finally opened, see who is named the worst-of-the-worst and must bear the dubious title of Canada’s Worst Handyman.
