If your Downey house has a patio door that drags, a loose door knob and a couple of holes in the wall, send a picture of each in one text. The reply prices them together, with the parts named.
We read the house from the photo too, whether it is a ranch home off Paramount Boulevard or a larger home in Northwest Downey.
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.
What to expect on your Downey visit
Two quick things help before we arrive:
- Tell us where the job is. If your garage is detached and the work is out there, we go there first.
- Let us know who will be home. Then we know who to ask for at the door.
When we get there, it goes like this:
- We check your photo against the job. If what we find is different, you hear it before anything starts.
- We clean up afterward. The clean-up is part of the price in your text.
Patio doors, drywall holes and door knobs in Downey
A patio door repair
We want the door shut with the whole track showing, and a close-up of the track at the bottom corner. Please take it before you clean anything, because the dirt tells us something too.
Patching holes in drywall
We price these by how many there are and how big, so put something like a coin next to the largest one. Then step back and show the whole wall. Our page on drywall and plaster repair has more.
A door knob to fix
Photograph both sides of the door with the knob in the shot, and tell us if the latch still catches. Our page on door repair covers the bigger door problems as well.
Weather stripping and window caulking
Show us the door or window from inside on a bright day with the room dark, so any gaps show up as light. For caulk, add one close-up from outside where the frame meets the wall.
Ranch homes, larger homes and apartments around Downey
A postwar ranch home
Say whether the garage is attached or detached, since that tells us where we start and how far we carry things. A wide shot, with the floor and a door or switch in it, gives us the size.
A larger home in Northwest Downey
With more rooms, it helps to name the room and the floor in your text. Add a picture from the driveway if the job is a long walk from it.
An apartment in Downey
Tell us the floor, and show the whole wall.
