Many of the postwar tract houses in Westchester have been remodeled, so the outside of the house can tell us very little about the kitchen or the bathroom inside.
That is why we go by your photo. It shows us what is in the room today, and that is the part we are pricing.
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.
Remodeled houses and rentals near the university
Single-story homes in Kentwood
Take the picture of the room as it is now, and tell us if you know roughly when it was redone. A remodeled room and the one next to it may not be alike, so please send a separate picture for each job.
Houses in Loyola Village
If your garage sits at the end of the driveway and the job is out there, add a picture from the street. It tells us how far we carry, and it can save the one question.
Apartments near Sepulveda Boulevard and Loyola Marymount University
Give us the floor and tell us whether you share the wall in the picture. If the place is a student rental, send one picture for each job.
What can make a Westchester job cost more or less
- What the room is finished in. A tile wall or a new countertop takes more care than plain drywall, so we want to see the surface around the job as well as the job.
- How we get to it. A garage at the end of the driveway or an upstairs apartment off Manchester Avenue means a longer carry, and the text says so.
- The fixture or bracket. The faucet, the caulk or the bracket is named in the same message as your price, so you know what is going in.
You can read more on how the price is set when you have a moment.
A few Westchester jobs and the pictures they need
Shower caulk or bathroom caulk
Stand in the bathroom door for the first picture. For the second, go in close where the caulk meets the tile in a corner, since that is where it usually lets go first. If it looks like a leak, the reply will say it needs a plumber.
A new kitchen faucet
For a kitchen faucet replacement, we need the faucet from the front with the sink in the shot. Then take one under the sink, with the shutoff valves and the supply lines showing.
A TV in a remodeled room
For a TV wall mount installation or any other TV mounting, show the wall and the outlet from the far side of the room, and tell us if there is stone or tile behind where the TV will go.
A tub faucet that won't stop dripping
Take the faucet and the handles together from a step or two back, then one close-up of the spot where it drips. If replacing the tub faucet won't solve it, the reply says so.
The four steps after you take the picture
- Text it to (310) 857-2520 with your cross streets, for example Sepulveda Boulevard and the street you are on.
- Wait up to an hour between 7am and 7pm, on any day, for the price or for one question.
- Say yes if the price suits you, and give us a morning or an afternoon.
- Meet us at the door, where we check the job against your picture, and we clean up before we go.
