Door and latch repairs
Older frames, settling, and seasonal movement can cause doors to rub, drag, or miss the strike plate.
El Cerrito's hillside neighborhoods, BART access, and compact grid of 1940s to 1960s homes make it one of the most walkable cities in the East Bay. The homes are solid but aging: sticking doors, cracked window caulk, and bathroom re-caulking are common calls. I serve El Cerrito and the adjacent Kensington area with the same efficiency I bring to central county.
El Cerrito is a strong fit for older-home handyman work: door repairs, drywall patches, fixture swaps, bathroom caulk, weatherstripping, and small pre-listing repairs. I handle the practical fixes that make daily use easier.
Older frames, settling, and seasonal movement can cause doors to rub, drag, or miss the strike plate.
Small wall patches, anchor holes, cracks, and texture matching are common in older homes and apartments.
Tub caulk, vanity lights, fans, faucets, running toilets, and showerhead swaps are common small bathroom repairs.
Small repairs before listing can make older homes show cleaner and reduce avoidable inspection notes.

A simple symptom can point to a deeper issue. I handle the small fix and call out licensed-trade work when needed.
Door alignment, weatherstripping, bathroom caulking, and fixture-level repairs are common El Cerrito requests.
Small visible fixes can help a home show better without starting a large project late in the sale process.
