In Olympus Cove

Updated FEMA work maps designate the floodplain along Neff's Creek in Olympus Cove as an active alluvial fan, a fan-shaped area where streams deposit silt, sand, gravel, boulders and woody debris and that is prone to sudden, unpredictable flood events. (Neff's Creek Floodplain Info | Millcreek, UT) Homes along the Wasatch Front foothills in Olympus Cove sit within a classic wildland urban interface zone, where higher wildfire exposure calls for extra precautions such as defensible space, ignition-resistant construction and vegetation management. (House Bill 48: What It Means for Millcreek Residents (Millcreek WUI FAQ)) Millcreek planners describe Mount Olympus as having significant and well-known sensitive lands, including debris flow areas, slopes greater than 30 percent, a significant avalanche path, several alluvial fans and significant floodplains.

What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Installs grab bars at the tub or shower entry, inside the shower and beside the toilet, fastened into studs, blocking or anchors rated for that wall.
  • Drills tile and fiberglass surrounds with the right bits and seals each fastener so water stays out of the wall.
  • Adds non-slip tub strips, a clamp-on tub rail and plug-in night lights along the path from the bedroom to the bathroom.

How it works

  1. Photos of the bathroom walls and a note on what the visitor needs come in first.
  2. The job is priced in writing before work starts.
  3. Studs are located, bar heights are set with the family, bars are mounted and each one is pull-tested by hand.
  4. Referred out: moving plumbing fixtures or valves, adding a hand-held shower on the plumbing, and tub-to-shower conversions (licensed plumber or remodeler).

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; the visit is then booked around the deadline, and photos of the finished work follow.
  • Photograph the damage before anything is moved and keep every receipt; 24/7 Express Handyman Service provides an itemised invoice your insurer may ask for. The dispatch fee and job cost are paid by you on the day.
