When a door sticks in Northgate or a shelf needs hanging in Rossmoor, we're the reliable call for 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 Walnut Creek across its neighborhoods: downtown and Walnut Heights, Northgate and Rudgear, Saranap, and the Rossmoor community, plus nearby Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, Alamo, Danville, Pleasant Hill, and Concord. Central Contra Costa is a mix of mid-century ranch homes, newer subdivisions, and condos — homes that generate a steady list of small repairs a general contractor won't bother with.
Rossmoor in particular keeps us busy with aging-in-place work: grab bars and handrails, higher toilets, lever handles, hard-to-reach light bulbs and smoke detectors, and shelving. We handle these as single-visit jobs, quote them upfront, and follow the community's contractor sign-in at the gate. Whatever the task, we tell you straight when something needs a specialty contractor instead of a handyman.
We also serve Concord 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.
Downtown Walnut Creek, Rossmoor, Northgate, Rudgear, Saranap, and Walnut Heights, plus nearby Lafayette, Alamo, Danville, Pleasant Hill, and Concord. We come over from the East Bay through the Caldecott, so most of central Contra Costa is a short drive.
Yes — grab bars, faucet swaps, light fixtures, hard-to-reach bulbs, shelving, and other single-visit fixes are exactly the kind of work we do, and Rossmoor residents ask for them often. We'll follow the community's contractor check-in procedures at the gate.
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.
Usually the same week, and often sooner for quick fixes. Call (415) 936-4709 or send the form and we'll confirm a time.
