Sixty wet winters on a ranch house. Doors, drywall and the turnover list lead in Hazel Dell.
A 1960s Hazel Dell ranch has doors and windows at the age where everything goes. The entry door sags in a settled frame, the side door crumbles at the step, a hollow-core door in a rental is split at the latch, the slider drags on dead rollers, and the aluminum windows are rotting the wood bucks behind the metal. We rebuild the frame, rehang and seal the entry door, swap the split door, re-roller the slider and rebuild the bucks, then move down the list.
Routine work for a Kaminskiy-certified technician who is in Hazel Dell most weeks from east Vancouver. One call books the whole list.
Priced and on the calendar during the first call.
A written quote you approve before anyone drives out.
One crew, the whole list, warranty in writing.
A one-year workmanship warranty, in writing, on every Hazel Dell repair.
The Hazel Dell list is long and ordinary: a door, a window buck, a drywall crack, the carport post, caulk, a towel bar, a shelf, and between tenants the nail holes and the latches. One Kaminskiy-certified technician takes it all in one visit with a stocked truck, and the two-page turnover list is a normal morning. A matched door or a special-order part gets its second visit scheduled before we leave.
Read the list or text photos of the worst items, and most Hazel Dell visits are priced on that call, in writing, before a date is set. A carport post, a rotted window buck or a deck gets a look and a written scope first. A rental turnover is priced by the room up front, so the owner knows the number before the keys change hands. What you approve is what you pay.
Hazel Dell is unincorporated, so Clark County is the permit office. Painting, carpeting, cabinets, countertops and similar finish work need no permit, nor does a fence to seven feet or a low detached deck, and the state residential code asks no application for an ordinary repair such as a rehung door, a spliced siding course, a rebuilt window buck or a patched wall. The county puts a window or siding replacement on a permit and files bigger rot repair under its Alteration, Repair and Specialty permit, so a wall of new siding, a carport beam or a deck ledger goes to the Permit Center on Franklin Street before the job.
The panel, a new circuit or a re-pipe goes to the licensed electrician or the licensed plumber, because Washington licenses those trades separately. The roof is a roofer's, a gas line is the licensed plumber's or the utility's, and a carport beam or a settled footing is the engineer's question. Most Hazel Dell houses went up before 1978, so if a repair means cutting into old paint that may be lead paint, that part is the certified lead-safe renovator's, and we say so before we start. The carpentry, drywall and finish work around all of it is ours.
The oldest lots, with 1950s and 1960s ranches in cedar and hardboard, aluminum windows in wood bucks, original doors and original fascia. Wood rots behind the metal frames, the bottom courses go at the splash line, the fascia softens behind a tired gutter and the doors sag. We rebuild the bucks, splice the courses, replace the fascia, rehang the doors and reset the drip edge so it stops happening.
Busy streets with split-levels, patched houses, carports on posts and a lot of rentals. The carport post rots at the slab, the T1-11 on the addition puffs at the bottom edge, the side-door jamb crumbles at the step, and every turnover needs nail holes, strikes, latches and caulk. We rebuild the post base on a standoff, cut back and flash the sheet siding, splice the jamb and price the turnover by the room.
Family streets from the 1960s to the 1980s with builder doors, sliders and decks added later on ledgers nobody flashed. Deck boards soften at the ends, railing posts rot at the base, sliders drag, and the hollow-core doors inside have taken a beating. We replace boards and posts, re-roller the sliders, swap the doors and look at the ledger before any deck board comes off.
Call 360-347-2002 or text photos of the door, the post and the wall. Most Hazel Dell lists, turnovers included, are priced on that call.
You get the list back in writing with a price before anyone drives up I-5. A carport post or a deck that needs a look gets scheduled for one.
A Kaminskiy-certified technician arrives from NE Park Plaza Drive with a stocked truck and works the list, matching the trim, the texture and the paint on a sixty-year-old house.
Every line comes back checked, the house is left clean, and the one-year workmanship warranty is on the invoice.
Washington law has one category for the handyman and the contractor: anyone paid to build, alter or repair a house registers with the Department of Labor and Industries, posts a bond, carries liability insurance, and commits a gross misdemeanor by working or advertising without that registration. Kaminskiy Care and Repair is registered that way, bonded and insured, and the technician at your door is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked. Electrical and plumbing are licensed on their own and go to the licensed electrician or plumber; a beam or a foundation question goes to the engineer; the carpentry and finish work around them is ours.
Clark County is Hazel Dell's permit office. Its no-permit list is painting, carpeting, cabinets, countertops and similar finish work, a fence to seven feet, a low detached deck and a small shed; it requires a permit to replace windows or siding; and it files minor repairs such as rot repair under its Alteration, Repair and Specialty permit. The state residential code underneath asks no application for an ordinary repair, which covers a rehung door, a spliced course, a rebuilt buck or a patched wall. A wall of new siding, a carport beam or a deck ledger is the question we take to the Permit Center on Franklin Street first, and the permit goes in the written scope when one applies.
Most Hazel Dell houses were built before 1978, so the coats under the newer paint may be lead paint, and disturbing it is the certified lead-safe renovator's job, not a handyman's; if a repair means cutting into an old painted surface we tell you first and name who should do that part. A deck added without a flashed ledger is the other local rule: the ledger gets looked at before the boards are replaced. Few of the older streets have an association; some newer ones do, and a repair painted to match rarely needs a form.

Call 360-347-2002That is a normal Hazel Dell morning. The door that will not latch, the drywall crack, the carport post, the caulk, the shelf and the split hollow-core door go on one list, and one Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works through it. A turnover list between tenants is the same visit, priced by the room.
The panel, a new circuit and the plumbing, which Washington licenses separately and which go to the licensed electrician or the licensed plumber; the roof; a gas line, which is the licensed plumber's or the utility's; a carport beam or footing, which the engineer looks at first; and cutting into lead paint, which is the certified lead-safe renovator's job on a pre-1978 house. We name those lines on the call and do the carpentry around them.
We answer in under three rings, price most lists on the call and usually have a technician from our east Vancouver office at the house within days, west of Highway 99 or east of it.
Describe the list or text photos and the price comes on the call, in writing, before anything is booked. A carport post, a rotted window buck or a deck gets a look and a written scope first. A rental turnover is priced by the room up front, so the number is known before the keys change hands.
Yes. Every job carries our one-year workmanship warranty in writing, the technician is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked, and the company is registered, bonded and insured with the Department of Labor and Industries.
Not ordinary repairs or finish work. Clark County leaves painting and similar work alone, and the state residential code asks no application for a rehung door, a spliced course, a rebuilt window buck or a patched wall. The county puts window and siding replacement on a permit and files rot repair under its Alteration, Repair and Specialty permit, so a wall of siding or a carport beam is where we check with the Permit Center first.
Usually, yes. The wood buck the aluminum frame sits in has been wicking water for decades, and we pull the trim, cut the buck back to sound wood, splice in new, flash it and reset the frame and the trim to match. If the rot has run into the framing behind, we tell you before anything else is opened.
