What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Battery smoke and carbon monoxide alarms installed or replaced where the report calls them missing or out of date
  • Loose handrails, doors that stick or will not latch, missing door stops and torn or bent screens repaired
  • Failed caulk, cracked grout, loose trim and small drywall damage on the report fixed and photographed

How it works

  1. Read the inspection report and sort the items into handyman work and licensed-trade work
  2. Write up a scope for the handyman items so buyer and seller can agree on them before the deadline
  3. Do the repairs and take before-and-after photos of each item for the agents
  4. Referred out: hardwired alarms, wiring, electrical panels, plumbing, water heaters, furnaces, gas and roof items go to licensed trades, and any repair the contract says must be done by a licensed contractor is left to one

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; photos of each finished item follow so the agents can close out the repair list.
  • 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.
