About Squad Life

Squad Life is a home maintenance membership for homeowners in Calgary, Okotoks and the Foothills. We visit your home on a set schedule to inspect, service and document your home’s systems, handle small fixes on the spot, and coordinate trusted trade partners for anything bigger.

An inspector finds problems and a handyman fixes what you point out. We do both on an ongoing basis: we track every system in your home, catch issues early, and take care of the small things before they turn into big repairs.

Homeowners who would rather prevent problems than react to them. It is a good fit if you are busy, new to owning a home, or simply want one trusted team keeping track of everything your home needs.

We serve Calgary, Okotoks, High River, Diamond Valley, Chestermere, De Winton and surrounding Foothills communities.

We service detached homes, townhomes, acreages and rental properties. We do not currently service condos or apartments.

Visits are completed by Squad Life technicians and trusted subcontractors. Everyone who works in your home has WCB clearance and is bondable.

Yes. Squad Life is insured and carries WCB coverage.

Getting Started

It is a visit of about 90 minutes where we walk through your home, document your equipment and its condition, log any known issues, and scan your floor plan. It sets up your Home Profile so your member portal starts with real data. There is no cost and no commitment.

Use any “Free Home Health Check” button on our website to pick a time that works for you, or call us at 587-317-7823.

No. We will recommend the membership that fits your home, and the decision is yours.

Memberships and Pricing

Bronze ($9.99/month) gives you full portal access and proactive alerts, with no scheduled visits. Silver ($39.99/month) adds a fall Health Check. Gold ($89.99/month) includes fall and spring visits. Platinum ($149.99/month) is year-round coverage with four seasonal visits. See our Pricing page for full details.

Bronze suits homeowners who want their home documented and tracked with reminders, but prefer to do the work themselves. Silver adds a yearly fall visit to prepare your home for winter. Gold covers both fall and spring, and Platinum provides full, year-round care. After your Home Health Check, we will recommend the level that fits your home.

Yes. Paying annually gets you two months free.

There are no callout fees and no long-term contracts. You can cancel anytime.

You can cancel your membership at any time. Your membership stays active until the end of the term you have already paid for, and no further visits are scheduled after that. Payments already made are non-refundable.

Your membership stays with you, not the house. It continues until you cancel, and you can bring it to your new home by letting us know. The new owners of your previous home are welcome to start their own membership.

Visits

It depends on your membership. Visits cover systems like your furnace, humidifier, sump pump, exhaust fans, exterior doors and radon screening, and higher tiers add A/C, water heater, attic, gas fireplace, garage door, and roof and gutter checks. See our Seasonal Services page for more.

Silver members receive a fall visit. Gold members receive visits in the fall and spring. Platinum members receive a visit every season.

Yes, radon screening is included with Silver, Gold and Platinum memberships.

Most seasonal visits take about two hours.

No, as long as we have a way to access your home, such as a lockbox, door code or someone else at home. We will confirm access details with you before your visit.

Visits are scheduled for you automatically. If the time does not work, you can change your appointment. Please let us know as early as possible.

Yes, for certain systems. Your membership includes emergency service for issues such as HVAC and electrical problems. If you ever smell gas or see signs of fire, leave your home and call 911 first.

Yes, gutter cleaning is included with memberships that cover roof and gutter service. See our Pricing page for which levels include it. Snow removal and window washing are not included.

Repairs, Parts and Trade Partners

Sealing and caulking, filter changes, door adjustments and other minor repairs we can complete during a visit.

Common maintenance supplies, such as furnace filters, silicone and caulking, are included in your membership. Some items, such as replacement smoke or CO detectors, are not. In those cases we will let you know ahead of time which product to purchase, and we will install it during your visit at no extra labour cost where we are permitted to do so. Any other parts are discussed with you before they are billed.

We log it in your portal with photos and connect you with a vetted trade partner from our network. Members receive a discount with our partners, and Silver members and above receive an enhanced discount and issue-matched referrals.

Yes. We stand behind our work. If something we serviced or repaired during a visit is not right, let us know within 30 days and we will come back and make it right at no charge. This covers our own workmanship only. It does not cover the age, wear or failure of existing equipment, or work completed by trade partners, who provide their own warranties.

The Member Portal

Your Home Health Score, every tracked system and its expected lifespan, an issues log, a long-term home cost forecast, and your maintenance reminders, all in one place.

A simple score that summarizes the condition of your home’s systems based on our inspections, so you can see at a glance how your home is doing and track it over time.

It estimates when your major systems are likely to need replacement and what that may cost, so you can plan and budget ahead instead of being surprised.

Yes. All members receive seasonal maintenance reminders, filter change reminders, smoke and CO detector alerts, and product recall alerts.
