What We Take On

Handyman repairs through small-scale construction. If it is on your to-do list, chances are our crew can knock it out.

General Repairs

Drywall patches, doors, trim, hardware, and leaky fixtures — the punch-list jobs that pile up.

Painting & Drywall

Interior and exterior painting, texture repair, and full-room touch-ups.

Decks, Fencing & Outdoor Carpentry

New builds, board replacement, gates, and structural repairs.

Flooring Installation

Laminate, LVP, and tile installed or repaired room by room.

Light Remodels

Bathroom and kitchen refreshes, trim carpentry, and small framing work.

Property & Rental Turnovers

Move-out punch lists for landlords and property managers, done on a schedule.

How a Job Gets Done

Call the crew line and describe the job and your timeline. Mario or Jim will ask a few questions and give you a ballpark on the spot. A supervisor walks the job if needed, confirms materials and cost, and books your crew. Participants then complete the job under direct supervision, and you sign off when it is done right.
