Near Uptown we look closely at the older woodwork in the Spanish and Craftsman homes, and on the hillside in Friendly Hills we also want to see the way to your door. Those two ask for different pictures.
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.
Older walls, loose knobs and leaks
Can you do a TV installation on an older wall?
Yes, stand back so we can see the wall, the outlet and the room around it, then text us the size of the TV, and we can price the TV mounting from that.
I have holes in the drywall and a door knob that spins. Is that one job?
Send a picture of each, and the reply prices them together with the parts named. Our pages on drywall and plaster repair and door repair have more about patching holes in drywall and fixing a door knob.
What if the picture shows a leak behind a faucet?
Then the reply says it is work for a plumber. We are glad to price a like-for-like tub faucet replacement, so send it either way and we will tell you which it is.
Uptown, Friendly Hills and what your picture should show
Spanish and Craftsman homes in Uptown Whittier
Near Greenleaf Avenue, please keep the door hardware, the window casing or the baseboard in the shot. They help us read the age of the house, and that tells us what the repair is likely to take.
If the job is in a detached garage, take one more picture from the driveway so we can see how far we are carrying.
Custom hillside homes in Friendly Hills
Up against the Puente Hills, send one picture from the street that shows your driveway and any steps. It tells us how steep the way up is.
A custom home can have taller walls and bigger doors, so stand far enough back to show the height. For a patio door repair, also include a close-up of the track.
Apartments near Uptown
Tell us the floor, and show the job from a few steps back as you would in a house. If you are renting, check with your landlord about holes before you book.
If your wall backs onto the next apartment, mention that as well.
What the visit looks like when we get there
- We look over the job with your picture in hand. If what we find isn't what it showed, you hear it before any work.
- The parts are already named. They were in the message with your price, so you know what is going in.
- The clean-up comes last. That was in the price too.
From a picture to a time that works for you
- Send your picture to (310) 857-2520 with your cross streets. Whittier Boulevard or Turnbull Canyon Road and the side street you are on will do.
- Within the hour, between 7am and 7pm on any day, you have a price or one question.
- You answer with a morning or an afternoon, and most jobs are done inside the week.
You can read more on how it works and how the price is set.
