What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site
- Wall dings, nail holes and scuffed trim patched and touched up in the rooms the camera will see
- Crooked blinds, sagging cabinet doors, loose knobs and burned-out bulbs fixed or swapped before the shoot
- Sticking or squeaky doors adjusted, missing door stops and towel bars replaced, and gaps in caulk and trim closed
How it works
- Walk the house room by room from the photographer's angles and list what shows
- Patch first, then hardware and adjustments, then paint touch-ups so everything is dry by shoot time
- Final pass to clean up dust and debris and leave each room camera-ready
- Referred out: paint work in a pre-1978 home beyond 6 square feet per room inside or 20 square feet outside goes to an EPA lead-safe certified firm, and flickering lights or outlets that do not work go to a licensed electrician
What happens next
- The written scope and price come first; the list is built around the photographer's time slot so the paint is dry before the shoot.
- 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.
