Chris S Repair
Company Overview
I run a small business with just myself handling the tasks and responding to calls. I like using EMAIL for communication and would love to see pictures of the jobs. Feel free to email me at [email protected].
I focus on smaller handyman repairs that I can handle alone. I’m not available for tile or flooring projects. Heavy work and fencing are also out of my scope due to back issues.
The hourly rate is $100, with materials billed separately. I can give you a general estimate, but I don’t do official quotes. Initially, I worked on larger remodels, but I’ve shifted my focus to smaller projects. I was a licensed class B General Contractor for 24 years, skilled in light electrical work, plumbing, and carpentry.
I honed my skills over 15 years before launching my own business in 1998. I maintained 50 rental units throughout the Bay Area for a couple. From time to time, we remodeled empty units, and that’s how I gained my experience.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Excellent communication! Seriously, hire this guy! I was looking for someone to install an exterior power outlet so I can hang Christmas lights. Chris was responsive and the information on what was needed and the cost was efficiently communicated. We were able to schedule a date and time easily.
Day of: he was prompt and time management was efficient. He is also neat and tidy. Everything looks superb and works!
I will be hiring him again for other future projects.

I hired Chris to put up a security light for the garage. He planned out how he was going to do it so that there would be less problems during the work itself. I am happy with the work. The garage light works great!
I was so happy with his work that I hired him again to add a ceiling can light to my living room. Again - he planned it out in advance, realized there would be a couple ceiling joists that he would have to go through. He put the light in, taking care of the existing ceiling so there would be minimal effects afterwards.

Chris returned my message very quickly. The work was not an emergency, but he set up an appointment that same week. I had a bathroom fixture that went out. It had been put in by someone else. Chris determined the work had been substandard and was in fact a fire hazard. He had all the materials and tools to repair the connections and bring them up to code. He then installed the new fixture and even recommended a higher location to provide better lighting in the room. He was very friendly and it was clear he was an expert in his craft. We have a few more projects lined up and will be calling him back.

Chris did some small electrical and plumbing repairs for me, expertly and efficiently. He helped me understand what was going on with my breaker box. He suggested a way that my limping old vacuum cleaner might be rigged up to work, if I want to keep it out of the landfill for a little longer. He was extremely friendly and easy to work with. He communicated clearly with me using email, arrived on time and charged me fairly. I highly recommend him.

I called Chris for the removal of a broken over-the-range microwave, and the installation of a kitchen hood. Chris was very responsive, and when he arrived, he saw the scope of the job was much more complex than originally planned.... Upon removing the microwave, he discovered that our kitchen contractor had negligently set up our kitchen venting into our attic, a major fire hazard.
Chris took things step by step. He got into our attic, and hooked everything up safely, as it should be, to our roof vent. He also properly secured the new hood, with a clean stainless steel backsplash.
Now, our kitchen works as it should, and looks like a dream. No smoke alarms going off when we use the range! And all is safe for the family!
Check out the photo. Chris is a true perfectionist. Thank you, Chris!

We were having trouble finding someone to mount an 85"" TV on the wall for us and thankfully Chris came to our rescue. He was very responsive over email, showed up on time, and did a great job problem solving with the hardware we had to get the job done. Highly recommend him!

Chris fixed the wheels on a patio lounge chair, including some reengineering of the hardware, and set up a patio umbrella for me. Also fixed the closure on an outdoor gate. Punctual and knowledgeable. Hope to hire him again for a few other things (ceiling fan, lighting, wood shelving repair).

Love Chris never disappointed know for 5 years he does excellent work on any project I ask him to do thank you Chris !

Called Chris to help install a tricky over the range microwave setup. He communicated well showed up on the day and time he said he would. He has a great attention to detail, he was very professional and entertained my three year old and his love of power tools. I will definitely call him for help on future home improvement projects.

Chris is awesome. He's been working with us regularly for five years. We have high standards and are picky about quality and aesthetics. He will take on large projects as well as small repairs, both with the same attention and care, and we know that they'll get done right. He communicates well, is responsive, a problem solver, does excellent work and is trustworthy. We have referred him to family and friends in the area and all have similar glowing reviews.
