Phoenix houses age from the outside in. The sun and the monsoon take the paint, the patio cover and the doors; inside, the kitchen and baths simply get old. Kaminskiy Care and Repair handles the inside list as one job: a kitchen or bathroom refresh with new fixtures installed, floors over the slab, paint through the house, a rental turned over between tenants, the rooms behind a storm-damaged patio put back, a house readied for a parent. Our Valley office is on Central Avenue and open every day. When a plan moves a wall or a drain it is a remodel, which we tell you on the first call rather than at the house. Call 480-637-5830.
Refreshes and multi-day projects, priced in writing from Central Avenue.
Look at an Ahwatukee kitchen from 1992: oak doors, tile counters, a box light, and a layout nobody would change. New counters, a backsplash, hardware, a sink and lights make it a different room without touching a wall, and that is a refresh. Stack several of those into one schedule and you have a project: the Maryvale rental repainted and refloored before the next lease, the patio cover and the two rooms behind it rebuilt after a storm, the Sunnyslope house made ready for a parent. Move the sink, the range or the panel and it becomes a remodel, which is a licensed general contractor's job, and we say which one yours is on the first call.
AFTERBEFOREIf one of those is your house, Kaminskiy Care and Repair writes it up as one scope. Call 480-637-5830. One room usually takes days. A longer list comes with a schedule you see in writing before the first truck arrives.
We answer in under three rings and get you priced and scheduled in minutes.
A clear, written quote with upfront pricing. You approve before work begins.
Kaminskiy-certified pros finish the job with a workmanship warranty.
Every job is backed in writing by our workmanship warranty and done by a Kaminskiy-certified, background checked technician.
Keep the layout, change the surfaces, fixtures and finishes: that is a refresh. String several rooms together, or take on one repair that runs more than a few days, and it is a project. Move walls, drains or the panel and it is a remodel. In Phoenix the first two are ours and the third goes to a licensed general contractor, named on the call.
A kitchen that keeps its sink, range and fridge where they are needs no trade work and no permit, so the price is the cabinets, the counters, the floor and the labor to install them. That is why an Arcadia ranch kitchen can be refreshed for a fraction of a remodel of the same room. The number is on paper before anything is scheduled.
Repairs first, then paint, then floors, then fixtures and hardware, then trim. In a 1950s block house the slab is the first job: the old adhesive comes up and the high spots are ground before any floor goes down flat. Skip a step and the next trade undoes the last one.
Dust walled off, floors covered, the air conditioning running, the house usable every night. Exterior and patio work goes in the morning hours from June to September, interior work in the afternoon. On a turnover the unit is empty and the trades follow each other day after day.
1920s to 1940s bungalows and Tudors with plaster walls, wood windows and original doors. A project here is a kitchen or bath brought up to date behind the historic street face, floors refinished rather than replaced, plaster skimmed instead of torn out. The outside stays as the district expects, and we check with the Historic Preservation Office before anything visible from the street changes.
Block and stucco ranch homes from the 1950s through the 1970s on slabs, with open-beam patio covers and the original sliders. The projects are the kitchen and the baths refreshed in place, popcorn ceilings taken down and retextured, new floors over the slab, and the patio cover and the rooms behind it rebuilt after a storm.
Stucco homes from the 1980s on, nearly all in associations, many with the first-owner kitchen and baths. The layouts are sound, so the work is counters, backsplash, vanities, floors, paint and hardware changed across the house on one schedule. Where the association has a say, the materials and colors go in writing for the form before anything is ordered.
A kitchen moved to the other side of the house, a wall opened, an addition, a casita in the back: that is a remodel, and in Arizona it belongs to a licensed general contractor with the right ROC classification, not a handyman crew. Describe the plan on the first call and we tell you which company you need before the call ends, so you are not paying for two bids to learn it.
A Maryvale, Sunnyslope or Deer Valley unit empties with nail holes, a worn kitchen and carpet past saving. We walk it the day the keys come back, price every item in writing, and run paint, floors, fixtures and hardware on consecutive days so it can be listed within the week. One vendor, one invoice, photos of every room.
Between mid-June and the end of September the storms lift patio cover panels, push water under the doors and stain ceilings. The roof is the roofer's. Once it is sound, the rest is one project: the patio cover, the wet drywall and insulation in the rooms behind it, the paint, the floor that soaked, scheduled as a single scope instead of four visits.
Grab bars screwed into blocking, a curbless shower with new fixtures, lever handles throughout, thresholds flattened, brighter light, a bedroom and bath on the first floor. Planned with the family as one scope and finished before the move-in week, with the summer heat built into the plan rather than discovered on the day.
Tell us what you want to change. Small refreshes are priced on the call. A multi-room project gets a walk-through from our Central Avenue office within days.
Every room, every item, every finish on paper. You pick the fixtures, tile and colors, or we bring options. Nothing is ordered until you sign off.
Repairs first, then paint, floors, fixtures, trim. The same technicians through the whole Phoenix job, and a licensed trade brought in for the wiring or plumbing when the scope needs one.
We walk every room with you, leave the house clean, and every item carries our one-year workmanship warranty, on paper.
Arizona lets a person without a contractor license take a job only when it is casual or minor, the whole price including materials stays under a set small amount, and no building permit is needed; anyone advertising without a license has to say so. A renovation project is past that line by its second item. Kaminskiy Care and Repair is bonded and insured, every technician is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked, and when a project needs a permit or a specialty trade it goes to the right license, which we arrange or name on the call, with the whole scope in writing first.
Phoenix publishes its own exempt-work list, and most of a refresh is on it: painting and similar finish work, patching walls and ceilings, cabinets, counters and floor finishes, and replacement in kind of doors and hardware. The city draws a line a project can cross: patching a hole in drywall is exempt, but replacing whole sheets is not, and moving a fixture, an outlet or an opening is a permit. We tell you which side of the line each room sits on before the scope is priced.
Ahwatukee, Desert Ridge, Laveen and most of the newer communities are association neighborhoods: an interior refresh is nobody's business but yours, while a new front door style or an exterior color usually needs the form, and we put the materials in writing for it. In Willo, Coronado, Encanto-Palmcroft, F.Q. Story and the other historic districts, the Historic Preservation Office reviews changes visible from the street; work inside the house is not reviewed, and we check before anything bigger.
Downtown, open every day. The Phoenix crew works out of 2 North Central Avenue and runs projects across the whole Valley: the historic districts, Arcadia, Ahwatukee, Scottsdale and out to the East and West Valley. Call 480-637-5830 with the room, the list or the photos. The whole county is on our Phoenix handyman page.
Can't find your answer? Call 480-637-5830 and ask us anything.
Call 480-637-5830Ask whether anything moves. New counters, a vanity, floors, paint, trim and hardware in the same layout is a renovation. Walls, drains or wiring moving is a remodel. A Phoenix kitchen that works but looks like 1992 wants the first, at a fraction of the second. A kitchen you want on the other side of the house wants the second, and we name a licensed general contractor on the call.
The finishes you pick and the labor the room needs decide it, not the square footage, so we never price by the foot. One room is usually priced from photos and a call. Several rooms get a walk-through and a written scope with every item on it, and nothing is ordered until you approve the number. Call 480-637-5830 to start.
Paint, floors, fixtures, trim, doors, cabinets and the repairs underneath are all trades we carry, so the same technicians run the list in order on one schedule. Where a scope needs a licensed electrician or plumber, we bring them in on the right day and coordinate it, so you still make one call.
Phoenix's exempt list covers painting and finish work, wall patching, cabinets, counters, floor finishes and a fixture replaced in the same spot, so usually no. The permit starts when whole sheets of drywall come out, a fixture or an outlet moves, or an opening changes. We say which on the walk-through and pull it when it is needed.
With the fixtures on site, a hall bath with a new vanity, faucet, toilet, shower door, fan and paint is a few working days. Tile and a shower rebuild add days. The schedule is written into the scope, and we do not name a date before we have seen the room.
That is how many Phoenix projects run. We hold a key or a lockbox code, send photos as each room is finished, and walk the house with you on video or the day you fly in. The written scope is the agreement, so nothing is added or changed without your yes.
