Floors, paint, drywall, bathrooms, doors and the small stuff for Whittier homes.
Yes, I serve Whittier. I'm Raul Ibarra, a family-owned handyman based in Buena Park since 2011, and Whittier is about 20 minutes from my house. Text me a photo of the job and I'll tell you what it needs and what it costs.
A Whittier customer had me build cabinet shelving and wrote that 'it was a small job and he did a very thorough and complete job.' That's how I handle Whittier: small jobs with full care, and bigger ones, floors, paint, doors, bathrooms, with the same written quote.
Whittier is about 20 minutes from me. Uptown homes are older and need matching and repair; the tracts and hillside homes are more about floors, paint and finish.
Most common jobs here: cabinet and closet shelving, interior paint, vinyl plank flooring, door repair, drywall and texture.
Most Whittier homes I see still have carpet over the original floor. I pull it, prep the subfloor, lay vinyl plank or laminate, and finish with new baseboard so the room is done in one job.
More about vinyl plank and laminate flooring in Whittier →Whittier's older homes usually need prep before paint: patching, sanding, caulking, sometimes wallpaper or popcorn removal. I do all of it, then two coats with lines cut by hand. Exteriors get washed, patched and primed before color.
More about house painting in Whittier →Holes, cracks and water damage in Whittier homes get patched, textured to match what's there, and painted so you can't find the repair. Popcorn ceilings scraped and retextured. Stucco patched outside.
More about drywall repair in Whittier →Original Whittier bathrooms from that era are small and tired. New tile floor, vanity, mirror, light, wainscot or paint, and fresh baseboard, usually in a few days, without gutting it to the studs.
More about bathroom remodel in Whittier →Openings in older Whittier homes are rarely square. I shim and fit new interior doors, bifolds and French doors so they close right, replace casing and baseboard, and fix the doors that stick.
More about door installation in Whittier →Keyless locks, mailboxes, TV mounts, shelving, smoke detectors, holiday lights, furniture assembly. Send me the list for your Whittier home and I'll quote the whole thing for one visit.

Raul did an excellent job on cabinet shelving. It was a small job and he did a very thorough and complete job.

It depends on the job, so I don't quote blind. I come look (free), give you one written number that covers labor, materials and cleanup, and that's the price you pay unless the scope changes. Several reviews mention I came in best of three bids.
