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

  • Rekeys or replaces entry locksets and deadbolts so old keys no longer work on the first night.
  • Mounts TVs, anchors dressers and bookcases to the wall, and assembles beds, cribs and flat-pack furniture.
  • Hangs curtain rods, blinds, mirrors and art, installs battery or plug-in smoke and CO alarms, and adds childproofing hardware.

How it works

  1. Share the move-in date, the list, and photos of the walls where things will hang.
  2. The list is scoped and confirmed in writing, with locks, beds and anchoring done first.
  3. Mounting, assembly and hanging follow room by room, and every lock and alarm is tested before leaving.
  4. Referred out: new outlets, hardwired fixtures, plumbing and gas appliance hookups, and paint touch-ups in pre-1978 homes larger than 6 square feet per room inside or 20 square feet outside.

What happens next

  • The written scope comes first, confirmed against the move-in date; locks and safety items go first so the home is secure the first night.
  • 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.
