Small Size Jobs

Handyman Services in Edmond, OK

Finally, A Contractor Who Wants Your “Small” Projects.

Serving Edmond, Oklahoma: From Coffee Creek to Oak Tree and everywhere in between

The Problem: Why is it so hard to get things fixed in Edmond?

You know the scenario. You have a list of repairs that have been bugging you for months. A loose cabinet hinge, a hole in the drywall from a doorknob, a fence picket that blew down in the last storm, and a ceiling fan still sitting in the box.

You try to call a contractor, and you get one of three results:

  1. The Ghost: You leave a voicemail, and they never call back.

  2. The “No”: They tell you the job is “too small” for their crew.

  3. The “Go Away” Price: They quote you $500 to change a lightbulb just to make it worth their drive.

In the Edmond construction market, most companies are chasing the “big fish”—kitchen remodels, room additions, and new builds. They have high overhead and big crews. Mobilizing a team to fix a leaky faucet or hang a TV simply doesn’t make financial sense for them.

But it makes sense for us.

The Solution: Your Dedicated Small-Job Specialist

We are Edmond’s dedicated Small Jobs Handyman Service. We don’t build houses; we maintain them. Our business was built specifically to fill the gap that general contractors ignore.

We believe that you shouldn’t have to wait six months or pay a fortune to get your home back in working order. Whether you live in a historic bungalow near UCO or a modern estate in Rose Creek, we treat your small repairs with the same professionalism and urgency as a major renovation.

 

Our Service Philosophy: “No Job Too Small” (Really)

Many companies say “no job too small” as a slogan. We mean it as a business model. We are set up for agility. Our trucks are “rolling warehouses” stocked with the fasteners, caulk, tools, and hardware needed to knock out 5 to 10 different tasks in a single visit.

Instead of calling a plumber for a drip, an electrician for a switch, and a carpenter for a stuck drawer—and paying three separate service call fees—you call us. We handle it all in one afternoon.

Detailed Service Menu

Not sure if we can do it? Here is a breakdown of the common tasks we handle for Edmond homeowners every week.

1. Interior Repairs & “Fit and Finish”

Edmond homes, especially those with our famous red clay soil, are subject to shifting and settling. This creates cosmetic issues that make a beautiful home feel worn out.

  • Drywall Patching & Texture Matching: This is an art form. We don’t just slap spackle on a hole. We specialize in matching Edmond’s common wall textures—orange peel, knockdown, and smooth finishes. Once we paint it, you’ll forget the hole was ever there.

  • Door Adjustments: Does your bathroom door scrape the floor? Does the deadbolt not line up with the strike plate anymore? We plane doors, adjust hinges, and realign locks so your doors close with a satisfying “click.”

  • Trim and Molding: We install baseboards, quarter-round (shoe molding), crown molding, and wainscoting. We also repair trim that has been chewed by pets or damaged by water.

  • Cabinet Hardware: Re-aligning sagging cabinet doors and installing new pulls/knobs to give your kitchen a mini-facelift.

  • Caulking and Grouting: Refreshing the seal around bathtubs, showers, and kitchen sinks to prevent water damage and mold.

2. The “Honey-Do” List & Assembly

We live in the age of Amazon, Wayfair, and IKEA. The furniture looks great online, but it arrives in a heavy box with 400 pieces and instructions that look like hieroglyphics. Save your marriage and your weekend—let us assemble it.

  • Furniture Assembly: Beds, dressers, desks, bookshelves, and patio furniture. We bring power tools to ensure cam-locks are tight and the furniture is sturdy.

  • TV Mounting: We safely mount flat-screen TVs (up to 85 inches) on drywall, brick, or stone fireplaces. We hide the wires for a clean, cinema-like look.

  • Picture & Mirror Hanging: Heavy mirrors and gallery walls require proper anchors. We ensure everything is dead-level and securely hitting studs.

  • Window Treatments: Installing blinds, curtain rods, and drapes. Getting these level and securely anchored into drywall is harder than it looks.

3. Minor Electrical & Plumbing Fixtures

Note: We handle “remove and replace” maintenance tasks. For major rewiring or main line plumbing, we refer to licensed tradesmen.

  • Fixture Swaps: Replacing outdated “boob lights” with modern fixtures, or swapping out dining room chandeliers.

  • Ceiling Fans: Essential for Oklahoma summers. We assemble and install fans to keep your air circulation efficient.

  • Outlet & Switch Updates: Changing old beige/almond outlets to crisp white ones, or installing USB-equipped outlets in bedrooms and kitchens.

  • The “Drip” Patrol: Replacing cartridges in dripping faucets, installing new showerheads, and fixing running toilets (flappers and fill valves).

  • Garbage Disposals: Un-jamming disposals or replacing burnt-out units.

4. Exterior Maintenance (The Edmond Elements)

Our weather takes a toll. Between the wind gusts and the red dirt, the exterior of your home needs constant love.

  • Fence Repair: We see a lot of wind damage in Edmond. We replace broken pickets, re-secure loose panels, and fix sagging gates. (We don’t build new fences, but we extend the life of your current one).

  • Gutter Maintenance: Cleaning out oak leaves and debris, and re-attaching downspouts that have blown loose.

  • Red Dirt Cleanup: We use specialized pressure washing techniques to remove red clay stains from driveways, sidewalks, and brick without damaging the mortar.

  • Weather Stripping: Replacing the rubber seals on exterior doors to keep the conditioned air inside and the Oklahoma heat outside.

  • Deck & Siding Repair: Replacing popped deck boards or securing loose siding.

5. Senior Safety & Accessibility (Aging in Place)

We are proud to help Edmond’s senior residents stay safely in their homes longer.

  • Grab Bar Installation: Installing ADA-compliant bars in showers and near toilets (drilled into studs for true weight-bearing safety).

  • Handrails: Tightening loose stair banisters or installing new handrails in garages/entryways.

  • Smoke/CO Detectors: We climb the ladders to check dates and change batteries so you don’t have to risk a fall.

  • Better Lighting: Adding under-cabinet lighting or brighter LED fixtures to improve visibility.

Why Edmond Homeowners Hire Us

There are plenty of guys with trucks in Oklahoma. Why choose us?

1. We Are “Edmond Local”

We know this town. We know that in Coffee Creek, the HOA has strict standards on exterior appearance. We know that homes in The Trails often have specific vintage plumbing quirks. We know how to clean red clay without stripping your concrete. When you hire us, you are hiring a neighbor who respects your community standards.

2. Trust & Safety First

Inviting someone into your home requires trust.

  • Background Checked: Every technician is vetted.

  • Insured: We carry full General Liability Insurance. If we accidentally drill into a pipe or trip on your carpet, you are protected. Never hire a handyman who can’t show you proof of insurance.

  • Professionalism: We show up in a marked vehicle. We wear uniforms. We put on shoe covers (booties) to protect your floors. We don’t smoke on your property.

3. The “One Call” Convenience

Your time is your most valuable asset. Do you want to spend your Saturday driving back and forth to the hardware store on Broadway? Or do you want to spend it at Mitch Park, Arcadia Lake, or watching the game? We save you the hassle of buying tools you’ll only use once. We bring the tools, the ladders, and the know-how.

4. Transparent Pricing

No “sticker shock.”

  • Assessment: We look at your list and give you a clear estimate.

  • Hourly or Fixed: For small lists, we offer a transparent hourly rate. For defined projects (like a fan installation), we can often give a flat price.

  • Materials: We explain exactly what materials cost. No hidden markups.


How It Works: The “Batch & Save” Method

Because we are a service-call based business, you get the best value when you batch your repairs. We recommend the “Walk-Through Method” before you call us.

  1. Grab a Notepad: Walk through every room in your house.

  2. Look Up and Down: Check light bulbs, smoke detectors, baseboards, and doorstops.

  3. Check Function: Wiggle handles, open windows, run faucets.

  4. Write It Down: Even if it seems tiny, add it to the list.

Example of a Perfect Service Call: “Hi, I have a list: I need a ceiling fan hung in the guest room, the back door weatherstripping replaced, a hole patched in the hallway, and two pictures hung.”

We can look at that list and say, “Great, that looks like a half-day block.” You get four things fixed for one visit fee. Efficient for us, cost-effective for you.

The Benefits of Hiring a Handyman for Small Jobs

Many homeowners try to DIY these small tasks. While we admire the spirit, there are significant benefits to outsourcing this work to a professional.

Save Your Weekend

Do you really want to spend your Saturday standing in the aisle of a hardware store trying to guess which screw anchor you need? By hiring us, you reclaim your free time. Go enjoy the Guthrie Art Walk, visit the Pollard Theatre, or just relax with your family while we handle the work.

The Right Tools for the Job

Installing a TV mount might seem easy until you hit a metal stud or realize you don’t have a level. We arrive with a fully stocked van. We have the drills, saws, levels, voltage testers, and specialized fasteners to handle unexpected surprises immediately.

Prevent Minor Issues from Becoming Major Disasters

A small water spot on the ceiling is a cheap fix today (a little stain blocking primer and paint). If ignored, it becomes a rotted beam and a mold remediation project. Fixing a loose fence picket now costs a few dollars; ignoring it until the wind catches the panel and rips down the whole section costs hundreds. We help you stay ahead of the curve.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Do you have a minimum charge? A: Yes, we typically have a minimum hourly charge or a “service call” fee to cover travel and setup time. However, we encourage clients to “stack” their jobs. If we finish the main task quickly, have us fix that loose doorknob or change those high lightbulbs to fill the time!

Q: Do I need to provide the materials? A: It depends. For specific aesthetic items (like a specific light fixture, ceiling fan, or towel rack), we prefer you purchase the item so you get exactly the style you want. For general materials (screws, drywall mud, caulk, lumber), we provide those and include the cost in the invoice. We can also pick up materials for you for a small fee.

Q: Are you insured? A: Absolutely. We carry general liability insurance. This protects you and your home in the unlikely event of an accident. Never hire an uninsured worker to work on your property.

Q: Can you do electrical or plumbing work? A: We perform minor maintenance and replacement tasks. In Oklahoma, major electrical (moving circuits, new panels) and major plumbing (gas lines, new rough-ins) require specific state licenses. We stay strictly within the “handyman” scope—replacing existing fixtures and performing repairs. If a job requires a licensed trade, we will tell you immediately.

Q: How quickly can you get to my job? A: Because we focus on small jobs, our schedule is more flexible than a general contractor’s. We can often schedule work within the same week, and occasionally offer same-day service for emergencies like a broken door lock.
