Here is how to make a good list. Walk through the house and write down every job. Take a photo of each one. Note which room and which wall. Call us and read the list. We give a written quote for the whole list, then do it in one visit. The more detail you give, the closer the quote is to the final job. If a job grows, we stop and tell you the new cost before we go on.
These photos show routine homeowner upkeep. Plumbing repairs go to a licensed plumber; we point you to the right trade before work starts.

Put it in writing, even for small jobs
New York requires a written contract for home improvement work over $500, with a three business day cancellation notice, per the Attorney General. The NYS Department of State lists these red flags: door-to-door pitches, cash only offers, and a demand for the full price up front. We give a written quote for every list and show a street address.
Landlords and property managers can send one list for several units. Tenants should ask the owner first.
Small repair questions
What counts as a small repair?
Jobs that take minutes to a couple of hours each: a loose rail, a sticking door, a cracked trim board, a small patch or loose hardware.
How many jobs fit in one visit?
It depends on the jobs. We tell you when we quote how many we can finish in one visit.
Do you give a written quote for small jobs?
Yes. Every list gets a written quote before work starts, and the price only changes if you add work.
Can you do small electrical or plumbing tasks?
Some minor tasks may be allowed, depending on the work and local requirements. Gas lines, electrical panels, new circuits and major plumbing work should be handled by the appropriate licensed professional. We explain when a licensed trade is needed before work starts.
Do you work on rentals?
Yes, for landlords and property managers. Tenants should ask the owner first.
