Preferred Home Repair was founded from my wish to create a business that solves problems and provides excellent service.
With a background in corporate work as a computer systems engineer, I decided to channel my problem-solving abilities into home repair.
For years, I was the go-to person for friends and family when something needed fixing.
My only training came from my father during my childhood.
I enrolled in building trades courses to enhance my skills to a professional level prior to starting Preferred Home Repair.

I possess a foundation in computer technology.
I spent a year working on solar thermal installations and repairs at a top local solar power company.
My wife and I are involved in an East Oakland community garden and facilitate a local produce buying club.
I am passionate about life and enjoy motivating others to reach their full potential.

Recommended Customer Reviews

★★★★★

As an interior designer, I've had the opportunity to hire Carlton to assist me on a number of projects. He's performed admirably every task I've asked him to do, and with true skill, friendliness and professionalism. I'm cautious with who I hire, as they act as the face of my company. I'm so happy with Carlton's work that I schedule my installations around his availability. All of my clients have been thrilled with his work as well. I'm proud to have him as a member of my team, and I recommend him without hesitation.

★★★★★

Carlton is practical, courteous, honest, is easy to work with, and most importantly does great work. He's the kind of guy you have back to do the rest of your work, without any reservations.

★★★★★

This is a long over due review for Carlton.

I have used his service many times. He is always on time, always courteous, always delivers quality services at a reasonable rate. When a repair is more complicated than he'd like to get into, he will suggest the home owner to seek expert in the particular area, be it blumping or electrical system. He is honest and has good judgement. I can totally trust him. Awesome, Carlton!

★★★★★

Carlton was on time, incredibly friendly and did a fantastic job with several fixes (window locks, coat hangers, weather stripping & a rear porch light fixture). He is now my go-to repair guy. Highly recommended!

★★★★★

Carlton replaced a pane in an old window and installed weather stripping around the door at our place.

He was punctual, thorough, clean and performed the work with high quality. I will definitely be calling him again.

★★★★★

First of all Carleton was not only on time but early. So that already earned him a star in my book before he even got started on my project.

I hired him from what I thought was a simple electrical project in my bathroom, but given that my house was built in 1912 there are always surprises with an older home. Carleton handled things like a pro! Very knowledgable and efficient. To be a relatively young man he seems has the wisdom and experience of someone twice his age.

Added bonus - he is so neat and clean not only in his professional demeanor and how he leaves your house.

I now already have a list of future projects for Carleton at both my home and workplace. So many times as a woman, I have felt cheated and taken advantage of by handymen. I don't have to worry about that with Carleton.

A true Wolf in Sheep's Clothing. Acts like a gentleman. Well spoken. However, he'll rip you off given the chance. Provided me a quote to perform a job in 3 hours ~ two hundred dollars worth of labor. Instead I just called someone from home depot and they did it in 30 minutes flat. It doesn't take 3 hours to replace a garbage disposal!

★★★★★

Ok! So Carlton is awesome, peeps!
The online communication (e-mail) was punctual and prompt. We set up an appointment ahead of time as he was traveling. He came on time to the second - I am not kidding! He was here at 8:15AM. I love punctual people - so easy to work with them. Our project involved replacement of an old stainless steel security door, with a new one and two dead bolts on our gate and the new security door. Carlton did an outstanding job and had to grind like crazy the door (the cavity was filled with concrete!) :)
He has a very easy going personality and puts you at ease, so if anyone has ""home repair anxiety"", Carlton is your man. Very honest and simply great person to work with.
We strongly recommend him, even though we really don't want him to get too much popularity before we are done with our house projects! :)

★★★★★

Highly recommend Carlton! He was prompt, professional, super friendly and fast. Thanks Carlton, we'll be calling you again!

★★★★★

If you are looking for an efficient, capable, and trustworthy handyman look no further. We are so glad to have found Carlton to fix multiple repairs. He installed a kitchen faucet, patched several dry wall holes, and installed closet doors. Thanks to Carlton we have a great handyman to turn to when the punch list gets long.
