Many homes in Compton are small older stucco houses with the garage detached at the end of the driveway. If the job is in the house, a picture of the room usually covers it, and if it is out in the garage, please add one from the driveway.
What you get when you send a photo
- A price within the hour. We text it back, or ask one question if the photo leaves one open.
- The reply costs nothing. That is true whatever you send.
- Open every day, 7am to 7pm. Most jobs go on a morning or an afternoon you pick, and they are done inside the week.
- No surprises at the door. If what we find isn't what the photo showed, you hear it right there, before any work.
- A year on our workmanship. If it comes loose, that visit is free.
The picture we need from your Compton home
A small older stucco home
Back up until the whole wall or door is in the picture, then go in close on the damage. For a door frame repair, we want the frame in one shot and the split or loose spot in another. We read the age of the house from the trim around it.
A horse property on a large lot
Tell us which building the job is in and send one picture that shows how far it is from the street. We need that walk for the price as much as the job itself.
A Compton apartment
Give us the floor and show the whole wall, with a light switch or door for scale.
Sending your Compton picture and hearing back
- Send the picture to (310) 857-2520 and add your nearest cross street.
- We come back within the hour with a price, or with one question first.
- The text covers our labor and the clean-up, and it lists the parts.
- If the price suits you, pick a morning or an afternoon.
Two things to keep in mind as you take the picture:
- Good light helps. Daylight or a lamp on the job shows us a drywall patch or a torn screen much better than a dark room does.
- Leave it as it is. Don't tidy up the door or the screen first, so we can see what it is doing.
A few Compton questions before you text
Will you come to my street?
Yes, all over Compton, from Long Beach Boulevard to Central Avenue, near Gateway Towne Center or close to the 91 and 710 freeways.
I rent my place. Can I still send a photo?
Yes, and the reply costs nothing, whatever you send, so you can show the price to your landlord before anyone decides anything.
Can a sliding door screen replacement and some drywall repair go in one text?
Yes, send a picture of each one, and the reply prices them together with the parts named. Our pages on window and door screens and drywall and plaster repair say more about each.
Text your photo to (310) 857-2520 between 7am and 7pm, any day you like.
