What We Install & Repair
Small commercial spaces collect small problems faster than anyone fixes them: a door that drags, a scuffed wall by the register, a shelf that never got mounted. This service puts one handyman relationship behind an office, retail suite, cafe, or a property manager's portfolio — on-call when something breaks, or recurring visits that clear the whole list in one block.
- Door, closer, hinge, and commercial hardware adjustment or replacement
- Drywall patching with touch-up paint in customer-facing areas
- TVs, menu displays, signage, artwork, and whiteboards mounted
- Shelving, storage, and flat-pack furniture assembled and anchored
- Punch-list runs between tenants in offices and retail suites
- Safety walk-throughs: loose railings, wobbly fixtures, trip hazards flagged and fixed
Common Problems We Solve
The front door slams, drags, or won't latch — and customers use it all day.
Closers drift out of adjustment long before they fail. We adjust or replace the closer, re-seat hinges, and align the strike — usually in one visit.
A list of ten-minute jobs nobody wants to hire a contractor for individually.
Keep a running list — wobbly chair, crooked frame, stripped cabinet hinge — and we work it in one scheduled block, invoiced once instead of ten call-outs.
A tenant left, and the suite needs to show well in two weeks.
We run the punch list against your showing date: patch and touch up walls, tighten or swap hardware, remove abandoned brackets, and flag licensed-trade items early so they book in the same window.
Something in the space is a liability waiting for a name.
A railing that moves, a threshold that catches shoes, a shelf loaded past its anchors — minor until an incident report makes them expensive. We walk the space methodically, fixing what we can on the spot and documenting the rest.
Work can't happen while the restaurant or sales floor is full of customers.
We schedule around your open hours: before-open mornings and after-close evenings are normal working windows, built into the arrangement.
How It Works
Walk the space once
Recurring clients start with a walk-through of the space or a representative unit, so later requests can be scoped from a text and a photo.
One contact, one running list
Staff or tenants report items to your manager, the manager forwards the batch — nothing depends on who answered the phone last time.
Scheduled visits, batched work
On-call clients book as needed; recurring clients get a standing cadence — monthly or quarterly is typical — worked off-hours if the space can't host a ladder mid-service.
Close-out you can file
Completed items come back with photos and notes, including anything found for a licensed trade, with per-property invoicing for managers.
What's Not Included
- Line-voltage electrical — circuits, outlets, and panel work go to a licensed electrician; low-voltage work like TVs and network drops is ours.
- Plumbing supply and drain work — leaks, water heaters, and restaurant plumbing are a licensed plumber's territory.
- HVAC service — rooftop units, refrigeration, and thermostats go to an HVAC contractor.
- Roofing and structural repairs — anything load-bearing gets documented and referred, not improvised.
- Janitorial and grounds contracts — daily cleaning and landscaping are different vendors.
- Large commercial buildings — our lane is offices, retail suites, cafes, and small restaurants, not facilities-scale maintenance.
What Affects the Price
- On-call versus recurring
- A standing cadence prices by the visit block and absorbs small items efficiently; one-off calls carry single-trip overhead.
- List length per visit
- Ten small items in one block cost far less than ten separate appointments.
- Access windows
- Work restricted to before-open or after-close hours narrows scheduling and prices accordingly.
- Materials and matching
- Commercial-grade closers, rated anchors, and matched paint land on the invoice at cost; hardware you supply speeds the visit.
- Portfolio size
- Several buildings on one relationship get route efficiency a single storefront can't — trips combine across properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our landlord or franchise requires vendor documentation like a COI. How does that work?
Bring the requirement to the first conversation. Vendor documentation requirements vary by landlord and franchise, so we review exactly what your paperwork asks for and confirm how it can be met before any work is scheduled.
Can you invoice on net terms instead of payment at the visit?
For recurring commercial clients and property managers, yes — terms are set when the arrangement starts, with per-property or per-suite line items. First-time one-off jobs are typically payment on completion.
How do after-hours visits work if nobody's on site?
However your building handles access: a lockbox, a signed-for key, an alarm code, or a staff member who opens up. Access and lock-up expectations are confirmed in writing before the first off-hours visit, and every visit closes with photos.
Is there a minimum job size, or can we send single small items?
Single items are welcome, but the math favors the list: a lone ten-minute fix still carries a trip. Most clients send the list when it reaches a visit's worth — urgent items jump the queue.
Who supplies materials — you or us?
Either. Common hardware, anchors, and patching supplies ride on the truck; specialty items are billed at cost. If you standardize hardware across locations, supplying it yourself keeps every suite matching.
What happens when a punch-list item turns out to be a licensed trade's job?
It gets flagged, not attempted. If the dead light is a wiring problem rather than a bulb, that item comes back documented with a referral — and the rest of the list still gets finished the same visit.
