What we actually fix

General repairs & maintenance — done properly, priced fairly

From the one-hour fixes that stay on the to-do list to multi-day maintenance — shelves hung level, doors that latch first time, flat-pack built without mystery screws, curtain rails fixed to studs, damaged trim replaced and painted in. The recent work below shows the standard: parcel mailbox installs, fence and utility tidy-ups, and the fiddly stripped-screw jobs that need patience.
