From a running toilet in Ygnacio Valley to a fence gate that won't latch in Clayton Valley, we take the jobs too small for a general contractor. Small jobs welcome — that's the whole business.

A batch of small fixes in one visit — for homeowners, and for landlords flipping a unit between tenants.
The City Home Repair serves Concord across its neighborhoods: downtown and Todos Santos, Clayton Valley, Ygnacio Valley, Dana Estates, Sun Terrace, and the surrounding tracts, plus nearby Clayton, Pleasant Hill, and Martinez. Much of Concord is postwar and mid-century tract housing — solid homes that, decades on, keep generating the small repairs a handyman is built for: doors that no longer latch, hairline drywall cracks, tired fixtures, and fences that have taken one winter too many.
We do these small jobs as single-visit work, quote them upfront from a photo, and tell you straight when something needs a specialty contractor instead of a handyman. Batching a few tasks into one trip is the best value — and keeps you from chasing down a different vendor for every little thing.
We also serve Walnut Creek next door, plus Oakland, Berkeley, and San Francisco. See the full list of 20 services for everything in scope.
One job or ten — photos help. We'll tell you what's in scope right away.
A fixed quote within 24 hours. Batched jobs cost less than separate visits.
On time, tidy, done right — and guaranteed. If it's not right, we come back.
Small jobs are quoted upfront before any work starts, so you know the price in advance. Costs depend on the task, materials, and time on site. Send a few details or a photo and we'll give you a free estimate with no obligation.
All of them — downtown and Todos Santos, Clayton Valley, Ygnacio Valley, Dana Estates, Sun Terrace, and the Concord tract neighborhoods — plus nearby Clayton, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, and Walnut Creek across central Contra Costa.
We schedule most jobs the same week, and we'll do our best to fit in urgent quick fixes sooner. Call (415) 936-4709 with what's going on and we'll tell you honestly when we can be there.
No. Hanging a mirror, swapping a light fixture, fixing one sticking door — small jobs are the business, not a favor. Batching a few together into one visit is the best value.
Yes — turnover punch lists, small repairs between tenants, and recurring maintenance for rental units around Concord and Contra Costa. One reliable contact for the small stuff saves a lot of vendor-chasing.
Same small-jobs service one town over, including Rossmoor aging-in-place fixes.
