Frequently Asked Questions

Call us at (386) 506-8000 or use our contact form. You'll speak with a real person — we don't use chatbots or answering services. Describe your repair needs and we'll get you a quote.

We ask about the issue, where it's located, and any constraints (e.g., tenant move-out date). For straightforward jobs, we often give a phone estimate. For more complex work, we schedule a brief visit to assess scope and materials, then provide a written or verbal quote before starting.

Yes, for many jobs. Smaller repairs — a hole in drywall, a sticking door, basic hardware — can often be quoted over the phone or from photos. Larger or multi-item jobs may need a quick in-person look to be accurate. We'll tell you when a visit is needed.

Photos help us see the damage, dimensions, and finishes so we can estimate materials and time more accurately. Text or email photos to (386) 506-8000 or attach them through our contact form. Include a few angles and something for scale (like a ruler or common object) when possible.

Clear the work area if you can. For repairs behind furniture or in closets, moving items beforehand speeds things up. If you have material samples or style preferences (e.g., paint colors, door styles), share them ahead of time. Pets secured and access paths clear help too.

Someone who can show us the work area and answer questions should be present. For rental properties, property managers often coordinate access. If you can't be there, we can sometimes work from photos and a lockbox code — ask when you request a quote.

No. Estimates are free. We give you a clear price before any work starts. You're under no obligation to hire us — we want you to feel confident about the cost and scope before we begin.

We'll stop and discuss it. If we find something unexpected (e.g., rotted wood behind drywall), we'll explain what we see and give you an updated quote before continuing. No surprise charges — you'll always approve any changes before we proceed.

Cost depends on the type of work, time required, materials, and travel. Simple fixes (loose hinges, small patches) cost less than multi-room drywall or deck rebuilds. We factor in complexity, access, and any specialty materials. Every quote is tailored to the actual job.

We have a minimum service call that covers our time and travel. It keeps small jobs economical for you while being fair to us. Many customers combine several small repairs into one visit to make the most of it — and save on multiple trips.

We accept cash, check, and major credit cards. Payment is typically due upon completion of the work. For larger projects or property managers, we can discuss invoicing and payment terms when you contact us.

For most standard repairs, we supply materials and include them in the quote. That keeps things simple — you get one price and we handle sourcing. If you prefer specific brands or already have materials, we can work with that too. We'll clarify in the estimate.

No. The price we quote is what you pay. Materials, labor, and travel are included unless we explicitly note otherwise. If we discover additional work is needed, we'll explain and get your approval before adding any charges.

Bundling several repairs into one visit often saves you money compared to multiple service calls. For landlords, property managers, and repeat customers, we can discuss pricing that reflects volume and ongoing work. (386) 506-8000 — tell us about your needs.

Payment is typically due when the work is finished and you're satisfied. For multi-day projects, we may agree on milestones. We won't surprise you — we'll confirm payment terms before starting any job.

Most repairs are scheduled within a few days. Simple jobs sometimes go in the same week. Urgent repairs get priority — call (386) 506-8000 and we'll work to fit you in as soon as our schedule allows.

We try when possible. Same-day availability depends on our current schedule and location. Call early — if we have an opening and your job fits, we'll get you on the calendar that day.

We operate during normal business hours, typically Monday through Friday. We can sometimes accommodate weekend or early appointments for urgent situations — ask when you call. For after-hours emergencies (e.g., major plumbing), we may refer you to 24/7 specialists.

We give you a time window when we schedule. For multi-job days, we do our best to hit the window but may adjust if earlier jobs run long. We'll communicate if we're delayed. If you have a tight schedule, tell us and we'll work around it.

Life happens. Give us as much notice as you can so we can fill the slot. We appreciate a call or text as soon as you know. Last-minute cancellations may affect future scheduling flexibility, but we're understanding when circumstances change.

Yes, for handyman-level emergencies — broken locks, minor leaks, doors that won't close, safety hazards. We prioritize urgent calls. For major plumbing or electrical emergencies that need 24/7 specialists, we may refer you to the right contractor while helping with follow-up repairs.

A few days is usually enough. For busy seasons or larger projects, booking a week or two ahead helps. If your need is urgent, call (386) 506-8000 — we'll do our best to accommodate you.

We serve Daytona Beach, Port Orange, South Daytona, Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach Shores, Holly Hill, and surrounding communities throughout Volusia County. If you're nearby, there's a good chance we can help — call (386) 506-8000 to confirm.

Our primary service area is Volusia County. For jobs in Flagler, Seminole, or other nearby counties, we may travel depending on job size and our schedule. Contact us with your location and we'll let you know.

Travel is factored into our pricing. Within our main service area, it's included in the quote. For longer drives, we may add a modest travel fee — we'll tell you upfront so there are no surprises.

Yes. We work on both sides of the Intracoastal — Daytona Beach Shores, Ormond Beach, and mainland Volusia. No difference in service; we come to you wherever you are in our coverage area.

We work in gated communities and condos regularly. You'll need to provide access — a guest pass, gate code, or meeting us at the gate. Some HOAs require prior approval for exterior work; check your rules and we'll work within them.

Yes. We coordinate with owners and property managers for vacation rentals and second homes. Access arrangements (lockbox, key pickup, property manager) work the same way. Contact us to set up repair or maintenance visits.

We handle drywall repair, door repair and installation, fence and deck repair, trim and carpentry, shelving, caulking, hardware replacement, small plumbing and electrical fixes, and general home maintenance. See our full service list. If it's a standard handyman task, we likely do it.

We do both. Small jobs — loose hinges, small holes, stuck drawers, dripping faucets — are routine. We're happy to knock out a quick fix. You can also bundle several small repairs into one visit for efficiency.

We handle minor plumbing: dripping faucets, leaky toilet flappers, loose supply lines, drain clogs (snaking), and replacing fixtures. For major repipes, sewer work, or code-required permits, we refer you to a licensed plumber. We'll tell you when a specialist is needed.

We handle basic electrical: replacing outlets and switches, installing ceiling fans, fixing doorbells, upgrading light fixtures. For panel work, new circuits, or permitted electrical, we refer to licensed electricians. Safety first — we stay within our scope.

Yes. Fence repair, deck repair, exterior trim, caulking around windows and doors, and minor siding fixes are all in our wheelhouse. We work outside in normal weather. For major roofing or structural exterior work, we may recommend a specialist.

Handymen handle smaller, focused repairs and improvements — things that don't require permits or large crews. General contractors run full renovations, additions, and permitted work. We're your go-to for the everyday fixes and maintenance that keep a home running.

Yes. Trim installation, baseboards, crown molding, shelving, closet systems, and finish carpentry are all part of our work. We can match existing profiles and finishes when possible, or help you choose new ones.

We don't service appliances (refrigerators, washers, dryers, etc.) — that's a different trade. We can install or mount appliances, replace dryer vents, and handle surrounding cabinetry or drywall. For appliance repair, we'll point you to an appliance tech.

Yes. Small nail holes, dents, and larger damage — we patch, tape, mud, and finish to blend with your existing wall. We match texture when we can. Drywall repair is one of our most common jobs. Get a quote.

Yes. We repair sticking doors, replace damaged ones, install pre-hung units, and adjust hinges and thresholds. We handle both interior and exterior doors, including standard sizes and many custom situations. Call (386) 506-8000 for door work.

Yes. We replace broken boards, repair leaning posts, fix gates, and address rot and damage. We work with wood, vinyl, and aluminum fencing within typical handyman scope. For full fence replacement or very large jobs, we can still help — contact us to discuss.

Yes. We repair loose boards, replace rotted decking, fix railings, and address structural issues within handyman scope. For major rebuilds or permitted deck work, we may coordinate with or refer to a deck specialist. We'll assess and quote accordingly.

We do our best. Orange peel, knockdown, and light spray textures are often matchable. Heavy or unusual textures can be trickier. We'll let you know what's realistic and may suggest a small test patch in an inconspicuous spot if matching is critical.

Both. We install pre-hung doors, slab replacements, and bifold/closet doors. We can handle standard sizes and many custom openings. For very large or specialty doors, we'll assess and quote — or refer if it's outside our scope.

We can replace rotten posts, reset leaning ones, and reinforce weak sections. Post repair often involves digging, concrete, and bracing. We'll quote the work and let you know if the whole fence or just a section makes more sense.

Yes. We handle painting, drywall patches, fixture repair, lock changes, and general prep to get units rent-ready. We work quickly — vacant time costs you money. Contact us to schedule turnover work.

Absolutely. We work with property managers on work orders, access, status updates, and invoicing. We're used to portfolio workflows and timelines. Tell us how you operate and we'll fit in. Call (386) 506-8000.

Yes. We take before-and-after photos and provide clear invoices. That documentation supports security deposit deductions and disputes. We keep records professional so you have what you need for accounting and tenant communication.

We coordinate through you or your property manager. Lockbox codes, key pickup, or tenant-supervised access — we adapt to your process. We're respectful of occupied units and work around tenant schedules when needed.

For landlords and property managers with multiple units or ongoing work, we can discuss volume pricing. Turnovers, repairs, and maintenance bundled together often make sense. Reach out with your portfolio and we'll work out a fair arrangement.

Yes. We work in occupied rentals for tenant-requested repairs and maintenance. We coordinate access, minimize disruption, and respect privacy. For turnovers and heavier work, we prefer vacant access when possible, but we're flexible.

Yes. We work through inspection punch lists, pre-listing repairs, and post-inspection fixes. Sellers, buyers, and agents all use us to get homes sale-ready. We often complete punch lists in one or two visits. Learn more.

Yes. We can coordinate with your agent or inspector, use their lists, and provide documentation for the transaction. We're familiar with the timelines and expectations of real estate deals.

We prioritize punch-list work when closings are approaching. Most lists are done within a few days to a week, depending on scope. Call (386) 506-8000 early so we can schedule around your closing date.

We'll assess it and quote the repair. Sometimes a quick fix resolves it; other times we may recommend a specialist (e.g., HVAC, foundation). We'll be straight with you about what we can handle and what needs someone else.

Yes. We handle cosmetic fixes, drywall patches, door repairs, touch-up paint, and general tidy-up before listing. A clean, well-maintained home sells better. Contact us to discuss your pre-listing needs.

Always. We remove debris, dust, and leftover materials. We leave your home as we found it — minus the broken stuff. Cleanup is part of the job, not an extra.

Depends on the job. A loose hinge might be 15 minutes; a multi-room drywall patch could be a few hours or more. We'll give you a timeframe when we quote. If something takes longer than expected, we'll keep you informed.

Not always. For many jobs, access and a quick walkthrough are enough. For work that needs decisions (paint color, trim choice), you may want to be there. We can also coordinate with lockboxes or property managers if you can't be present.

We stop and tell you. We'll show you what we found, explain the options, and give you a quote for the extra work. Nothing gets done without your approval. No surprise charges.

We'll update you on progress, any changes, and when we'll return. You can reach us at (386) 506-8000 with questions. We keep communication clear so you're never left wondering.

We can move lightweight items when needed. For heavy furniture or fragile pieces, we may ask you to clear the area or we'll work around it. We'll discuss access when we quote the job.
