Small repairs in Saratoga.
Half an hour from me. As with Los Gatos, a Saratoga visit works best with a list rather than a single task.
The houses here
Larger houses on larger lots
More doors, more bathrooms, more of everything that needs occasional attention. The visits here are longer and they cover more ground, which is the right way to use the hourly rate.
Long runs of cabinetry
Kitchens with twenty-odd doors drift out of line gradually, and all of them can be brought back in one go. It is the single most satisfying job on the list and the cheapest per door.
Outdoor woodwork
Shade structures, gates and outdoor units take weather here. I will repair and refit, though anything structural needs a licensed contractor.
What Saratoga calls about
Cabinet and door alignment across a whole house, shelving, exhaust fans and outdoor timber that needs refitting rather than replacing.
Faucet replacement
Kitchen or bathroom faucet swapped at the same sink.
$245–3251–2 hoursToilet replacement
New toilet set in the same spot, same drain.
$325–4502–3 hoursTV mounting
Up to 65 inches, on a stud wall, cables tidied.
$225–2951–1.5 hoursDoors and cabinets
Doors that stick, sag or won't latch. Cabinet doors and drawers.
$195–3251–2 hours
