Move-In Handyman & New Home Setup
Moving into a new home creates a fast-growing list of small tasks: mount the TV, assemble furniture, install curtain rods, swap locks, hang shelves, replace a dated light fixture, and patch the wall damage left by the previous owner or tenant. Bay Bilt helps homeowners turn a new place into a usable home without waiting weeks for separate trades.

Move-in work is best handled as a bundled visit
A new homeowner may search for TV mounting first, but the real list usually includes furniture assembly, lock changes, curtain rods, mirror hanging, shelves, and a few small fixes discovered during move-in. Bundling those tasks into one visit is more efficient than booking them separately.
Security and access tasks are high priority
Deadbolt replacement, smart lock installation, strike plate alignment, and door-sweep replacement are common early move-in requests. Bay Bilt can handle lock and hardware work on existing doors, while structural door-frame changes or major rot should be referred to a licensed contractor.
Setup should stay within existing wiring and structure
Fixture swaps, ceiling fan installs at existing rated boxes, and low-voltage cord management are practical handyman tasks. New circuits, outlet additions, panel work, and hidden wiring issues should be handled by a licensed electrician.
