Handyman for Small Projects in Garland, Rowlett and Rockwall

Most handyman calls are not one job. They are a list that has been growing for months: a towel bar that pulls out of the wall, a closet door that drags, a shelf that sags, caulk that cracked around the tub, a fence board that blew loose in the last storm. None of these is worth a separate appointment, so they wait.

We group the whole list into one visit. You tell us what matters most, we estimate the time from your photos and notes, and we work down the list in that order. Homeowners, landlords, and small businesses in Garland, Rowlett, Mesquite, Rockwall, and the rest of east DFW use this for move-ins, move-outs, listing prep, and plain catch-up days.

What we do

Common small projects and punch lists jobs we handle. Mix and match them, or add other small projects to the same visit.

Move-in and move-out lists

Patch anchor holes, hang hooks and rods, swap hardware, and leave the place ready for the next person.

Listing and inspection prep

Knock out the small items a buyer or inspector will point out: loose hardware, sticking doors, missing stops, worn caulk.

Caulk and sealing

Cut out cracked caulk at tubs, showers, and backsplashes and run a clean new bead.

Shelves, rods, and hooks

Closet rods, wall shelves, coat hooks, and curtain rods set level and anchored into solid material.

Doors and hardware

Door stops, sticking latches, loose hinges, cabinet hinges, and drawer slides adjusted or replaced.

Battery smoke and CO alarms

Battery-only alarms mounted or swapped, and batteries changed on high ceilings.

Small exterior items

House numbers, mailbox posts, loose fence boards, and gate latches.

Rental make-ready

Turnover lists for landlords and property managers, priced per visit so you can plan.

What affects the cost

How long the list is. Most small-project visits are priced by time. A clear list with photos lets us estimate closely.
Parts and materials. If you already bought the parts, the visit is labor only. If we pick them up, we add the cost of materials.
Access and heights. Work on tall ceilings, attics, or second-story exteriors takes longer and may need extra ladders.
Surprises behind the wall. Rotted wood, stripped holes, or failed anchors can add time. We tell you before we go past the quote.
Minimum visit. Every visit has a minimum, so it pays to bundle several items into one trip.

How to prepare

Write a numbered list and take a photo of each item.
Mark the items that matter most in case the visit runs long.
Have parts you already bought on site and unopened.
Clear a path to each spot and move fragile things out of the way.
Keep pets in a closed room while we work.
Tell us about gate codes, parking, or HOA work-hour rules ahead of time.

What is not included

Electrical or plumbing work of any kind that requires a licensed trade
Hardwired smoke and CO alarms
Roofing, foundation, or structural repairs
Remodels that need a general contractor and plans
HVAC work

Licensed trades. We do not do electrical or plumbing work that requires a licensed trade. If part of your job needs an electrician or plumber, we tell you up front.

Texas and DFW notes

Clay soil and sticking doors

Much of east DFW sits on expansive clay that shrinks in dry summers and swells when it rains. That movement is a common reason doors start to drag or stop latching. Small adjustments often fix it, and we will tell you when it looks like more than a door problem.

Summer exterior work

Exterior items on a list go best in the morning from June through September, when surfaces are cooler and caulk and sealants cure properly.

Common questions

Can I add items once you are there?

Often, yes. If time and materials allow, we price the extra item before we start it, so there are no surprises on the bill.

Do you work for landlords and property managers?

Yes. Rental turnovers and make-ready lists are a good fit. Send the unit address, the list, and how we get in, and we quote the whole visit.

How long will my list take?

It depends on the items. We estimate from your photos and notes and tell you up front, then confirm the plan when we arrive.

Do you charge by the hour or by the job?

Small-project lists are usually priced by time, with a minimum visit. Some single items have a set price. Either way you get the number before work starts.

Do you bring materials?

We bring common fasteners, anchors, and caulk. Larger parts like hardware sets or shelving are yours to pick, or we can pick them up and add the cost.

Can you replace a light switch or faucet on the list?

No. We do not do electrical or plumbing work that requires a licensed trade. We will tell you which items on your list need one.

Is the quote free?

Yes. Send the list and photos through the contact page or by email, or call, and we reply with a price before anything is scheduled.
