The small stuff
Keyless locks, mailboxes, TV mounts, shelves, smoke detectors, holiday lights. Bring me the list.
Small jobs & handyman punch lists in Buena Park & North Orange County
The small jobs are how most people meet me. A keyless lock, a mailbox post, a TV on the wall, shelves in a closet, a few smoke detectors, the holiday lights. Make a list and I'll knock it out in one visit.
These get the same care as a full remodel. One review says it plainly: 'Even though it was a small one he completed it with great care.' Landlords, property managers and homeowners with a running list of things that need doing are a big part of my week.
I take small jobs in Buena Park, Fullerton, Cypress, La Palma, Anaheim, La Mirada, La Habra, Cerritos and across North Orange County. Text me the list and a photo of anything tricky.
What's included.
Mailboxes and posts
New mailbox on a new post, set in concrete, level and at the right height. Jackie D.'s review is from a mailbox-and-post job I took on short notice.
TV mounting and shelving
TVs mounted into studs with cables managed, floating shelves, closet shelving and rods, garage shelves. Level, anchored properly, and I clean up the drywall dust.
Smoke detectors, fixtures and hinges
Smoke and CO detectors, self-closing hinges for garage doors, light fixtures, ceiling fans, bath fans, towel bars, curtain rods. The list of things that take a professional twenty minutes and a homeowner a whole Saturday.
Holiday light installation
Lights hung clean along the roofline, clips not staples, and taken down after. There's a photo of me on the ladder doing it on my homepage.
Furniture assembly, fences and gates
Flat-pack furniture assembled, furniture taken apart and put back together for a move, sagging gates rehung, fence boards and posts replaced, wood stained. If it's on your list, it's probably something I've done.

Dust vacuumed, packaging gone, walkthrough so you can check everything.
My property had a water leak issue, and after the plumber fixed it, I needed someone to patch the drywall and repaint the area. I found Raul through Yelp. From the very beginning, Raul was extremely responsive. After I contacted him, he quickly arranged a time to come by, inspect the damage, and…

Raul repliedThank you very much Kelly. It was very nice helping you out in this project. And I really appreciate you taking your time to do this. I really appreciate it And hope to help you out again in the future.
Raul is an excellent communicator and incredibly efficient. He handled a major remodel for my home, including installing new baseboards, removing and texturing the popcorn ceiling, installing new floors, demolishing a wall, and setting up new light fixtures. He understood my timeline and ensured…
Harman A.Raul repliedYou are very welcome Harman. It was great working with you. And when ever you need something call me. I’ll be glad to help you again.
Raul did an excellent job to install our mailboxes/ post. We really appreciate that he accepted the job right away even for a short notice. We're glad we found him, efficient & friendly thanks a lot for a job well done Raul!
Jackie D.Raul repliedThank you as well Jackie. Let me know when you ready for next project. I will be more than happy to help you.
I hired Raul to help me install 2 doors (one was a bifold) and he was able to do it the same week. It truly helped me a lot as I had family coming that weekend. He was very clean and thorough with his work and he was even able to go buy me a different handle when we noticed it was missing from the…
Nene V.Raul repliedThank you very much for letting me work with you guys. I really appreciate this. Thank you a lot.
I've used Raul's services several times. He does good work, on time, trustworthy, and fair prices. I would recommend Raul's work. He's helped me with things ranging from electrical issues to paint/stucco to even installing a wall-mount large screen TV. Thanks Raul.
Kent C.Raul repliedThank you very much for the review. Kent I really appreciate it. It was great working with you. When ever you are ready for next project. Please let me know.
I am super thankful to have found Raul. He fixed my front door screen first. Then painted two bedrooms, closets and hall coat closet. The coat closet needed shelves, and he did exactly what I wanted. I was totally happy with that job so we moved on to painting the exterior of my house. It was in…
Nicky M.Raul repliedThank you very very. Much. I really appreciate this. You guys already know. When ever you guys need my help. I'll be happy to help you guys.. God bless you..
Questions I get.
Is there a minimum job size?
No. I've driven out for a single door handle. That said, bundling a few things into one visit gets you more for the money.
Can you do it the same week?
Often, yes. Small jobs are easier to fit in. Nene V.'s review mentions two doors done the same week before family came.
Do I need to buy the parts?
You can, or I can pick them up on the way. Either works, just tell me when you text.
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes. Rental turnovers and mobile-home park repairs are a regular part of my work. Amy C. manages a park and has used me for many projects.
Also on the list.
Doors & trim
New doors, bifolds, French doors, casing, crown, baseboard. If a door sticks, I fix it the same visit.
Drywall & stucco
Holes, water damage, popcorn ceilings. I match the texture so you can't find the patch.
Paint, inside and out
Rooms, whole houses, exteriors, mobile homes, storefronts. I prep it properly and cut it in clean.
Need the small stuff done?
Text me a photo of the job. I'll tell you what it needs and what it costs.
