Questions and Answers
I need an IKEA PAX closet installed, but my walls are plaster. Can you handle that in my La Mesa home?
Absolutely. We specialize in retrofitting IKEA PAX systems into existing homes, including those with plaster walls. Our process allows us to install the system without you needing to remove your baseboards, and we can add crown molding to create a custom, built-in look. My background as an IKEA manager means I'm very familiar with their products and can often help navigate any order or delivery issues as part of the service.
My lights are flickering, and I'm worried about old wiring or rodents in my attic. Can you inspect and fix this?
Yes, electrical safety is a priority. For La Mesa residents concerned about common issues like short circuits or rodent-damaged wiring in attics, we offer thorough electrical inspections. We can diagnose the problem, whether it's at an outlet, fixture, or within your home's wiring, and provide a clear repair plan. We handle installation, replacement, and repair work to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and functional.
Do you offer pricing for a full day of handyman tasks, or is it only by the hour?
We provide both options to fit your needs. You can choose our hourly rate for smaller projects or a flat-rate price for defined jobs like specific furniture assembly or cabinet installation. We offer free estimates over the phone to discuss your project's scope. For complex jobs requiring an on-site visit in La Mesa, our diagnostic estimates start at $149, which is applied toward the work if you choose to proceed.
