The list on the side of your fridge. The door that never latched right. The towel bar still in its box in the garage. We do the jobs that are too small to interest a big contractor and too annoying to keep putting off.
The hardest part of small repairs is getting anyone to show up for them. A lot of contractors will not take a two-hour job, so homeowners end up living with a dozen minor irritations for years. Skyscrape schedules handyman visits specifically to knock out a batch of them at once — which is also the cheapest way to buy our time, since you are not paying a trip charge per item.
Send us the whole list when you request a quote, even the parts you think are too trivial to mention. We would rather arrive with the right hardware for eleven items than make three trips for four. If something on the list turns out to need a licensed electrician or plumber, we will tell you plainly instead of improvising on your house.
Doors that stick, drag or won't latch, failed strike plates, sagging hinges, broken sash hardware, weatherstripping, and screen and storm door repair.
Nail pops, doorknob holes, water stains, cracked corner bead, and texture matched close enough that a coat of paint makes the repair disappear.
Ceiling fans, light fixtures, vanities, faucets, toilets, garbage disposals, towel bars, shelving, mirrors, blinds and curtain rods — anchored into something solid.
The accumulated backlog: squeaky stairs, loose railings, sticking cabinet drawers, caulk that has gone gray, trim that pulled away from the wall.
Flat-pack furniture, TV wall mounts into studs, garage storage systems, and anything that shipped with instructions you would rather not read.
Recurring upkeep for landlords and small property owners, plus turnover repairs between tenants and pre-sale fix lists before a house goes on the market.
Handyman visits cover all of Delco — Media, Springfield, Drexel Hill, Upper Darby, Havertown, Broomall, Ridley Park, Glenolden, Aston, Brookhaven and nearby townships.
We work in blocks of time rather than charging per item, so a single tiny repair is not an efficient use of either of our money. Batching several items into one visit is the best value. Tell us the full list and we will tell you what it should take.
We handle straightforward swaps — replacing a light fixture, a faucet, a disposal, a toilet. Anything involving new circuits, panel work or re-piping goes to a licensed specialist, and we will say so rather than take the job.
Small repair visits in Delaware County can usually be scheduled within a few days, depending on the week. Urgent items like a door that will not lock get priority.
