TV mounts, furniture assembly, caulking the shower, hanging the shelf you bought three months ago, swapping the knobs on the kitchen cabinets. Small jobs, done properly, by someone who shows up on time — for a flat first-hour rate.
If you can point at it and describe the problem in one sentence, it’s probably on this list. If it needs a permit or a licensed trade, we’ll tell you straight and hand you a name.
Full-motion, tilt, or fixed mounts on drywall, plaster, brick, or concrete. Cables routed or concealed behind the wall. Anchors rated for the load — not the hardware that came in the box.
IKEA, Wayfair, Article, Amazon flat-pack. Beds, dressers, desks, bookshelves, and the crib that’s been in the box since the shower. We bring the tools and read the manual so you don’t have to.
Six to twenty frames, laid out straight on the first try. We plan the arrangement with you, mark it, and hang it — with the right anchor for your wall type.
Shower, tub surround, kitchen backsplash, exterior trim. Old caulk cut out, surfaces cleaned, new bead laid and tooled for a clean, watertight finish.
Cabinet knobs, drawer pulls, door hinges, towel bars, curtain rods, and toilet paper holders. Old hardware off, new hardware on, no scratched finishes.
Nail pops, doorknob dents, and small holes patched and sanded. Baseboard, shoe molding, and quarter round reattached or replaced to match.
Door sweeps, thresholds, and window seals replaced before the cold gets in. The cheapest energy bill fix in a Minnesota house.
Doors that don’t close with one push, deadbolts that miss the strike, keypads that stick. Adjusted, lubricated, or replaced with hardware you approve.
Wire or wood shelving in closets, pantries, garages, and storage rooms. Level, anchored to studs, and rated for what you’re actually going to put on it.
Our pricing is designed so a “small list” doesn’t turn into a full day of billing. Here’s the shape of it.
Flat, no trip fee inside our service area. Includes arrival, walk-through, and the first hour of work.
Once we’re on site, every additional hour runs at the reduced rate. The list gets cheaper the longer it is.
For defined jobs — gallery wall, closet system, multiple door rehangs — we quote a flat price based on photos or an in-person look.

“I honestly didn’t think all six of those things would get done in one visit. Everything works, everything looks right, and the price was exactly what he quoted on the phone.”

We stick to what a skilled handyman can do legally and well. If a job crosses into a licensed trade or permit work, we tell you before you book.
Small prep on your end means more jobs done in the same hour. None of this is required — it just helps.
Move furniture, rugs, and breakables away from the wall you want us to work on. We’ll put drop cloths down, but open space saves time.
If you’ve bought the TV mount, the faucet, or the shelf, unbox it and keep the instructions and hardware bag together. Missing parts turn a 30-minute job into a return trip.
For plumbing jobs, know where the main water shut-off is. For anything electrical, know which breaker controls the circuit you want worked on.
If you’re booking over text, a quick photo of the wall, door, or fixture helps us bring the right anchors, fasteners, and tools on the first trip.
Yes. We use masonry anchors rated for the load, and we bring the right bits for brick, block, and poured concrete. If your wall is veneer over a wood frame — common in older Minneapolis homes — we’ll find the studs behind it and anchor there instead.
We bring anchors, screws, and drywall toggles, and they’re included in the flat rate. If your mount needs specialty hardware (a very heavy TV, a specific stud pattern), we’ll tell you before the visit so you can grab it or we can.
Depends on the item. A standard dresser is 30–45 minutes; a full bedroom set is closer to two hours. Send us the product link with your booking and we’ll give you a real estimate.
Yes. We anchor into studs whenever possible. For heavy pieces on drywall-only walls, we use toggle bolts rated well above the weight of the item. We won’t hang something we don’t trust to stay up.
Absolutely. That’s actually the best way to use us. Add anything you can describe in a sentence, and we’ll work through it at the reduced hourly rate as long as time allows.
Yes, and we can invoice the property directly. We’re set up for recurring punch-list work, turnover repairs, and pre-inspection fixes. Ask about our landlord account rate.
Most visits mix categories. Here’s where to look if your list goes beyond general fixes.
Send it over. We’ll quote a flat number and clear as much of it as fits in one visit. Booking for the week of January 19, 2026.
Fill this in and we’ll text you a confirmed arrival window within one business hour.
