BBBAccredited Business
Kaminskiy Care and Repair is a licensed, insured handyman company whose background checked employees handle the whole home to do list, doors first. Calls are answered in under three rings, and most jobs are priced and scheduled in under 10 minutes. We serve Newport Beach and the surrounding California communities.
Ten minutes up Jamboree. Hardware, sliders and the second-home list lead in Newport Beach.
The Newport Beach to-do list starts at the hardware. Salt air seizes hinges, deadbolts and slider rollers within a season on the islands and the Peninsula, wood doors swell through the gray months, and sand packs the tracks. One technician clears the whole list in a visit: new stainless hardware, rollers and tracks, a planed and sealed door, a window latch that holds, caulk at the sashes, and a sill fixed before the harbor damp gets behind it.
One Kaminskiy-certified technician from our Irvine office works the whole list in a single visit, with stainless hardware on the truck and the walk from the truck planned for the islands.
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 Newport Beach repair.
A Newport Beach home repair visit is a list, not a single job. The deadbolt, the slider, the bath fan, the gate spring, the drywall patch and the sill corner go on one call, and one technician with a stocked truck works through them in order. On the islands we plan the walk from the truck; for a second home we work from photos and a lockbox and send pictures when the list is done.
Most of the list is priced on the call, in writing, from your description or a text of the worst item, before anything is scheduled. A rebuilt sill, a deck section or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. The access is in the price from the start, so a Balboa Island job with a block of walking costs what it cost on the call, not more at the door.
Newport Beach builds to the state residential code, which asks for no application for an ordinary repair and exempts painting, cabinets and similar finish work, so a rehung door, a patched wall, new hardware and a rebuilt sill need nothing. The city does permit replacement windows and sliding doors, and it has permitted deck dry rot repairs, so a new slider or a deck rebuild gets a call to the Building Division before the work.
The roof itself, the electrical panel, a re-pipe or a gas line, which go to the licensed specialty trade; termite treatment, which is the licensed pest company's; and anything that carries load over the water, which gets an engineer first. We say so on the call and come back for the carpentry around their work.
Wood-sided cottages and bay-front homes, many of them summer rentals and second homes, on streets where the truck parks a block away. The list is hardware first: pitted hinges, seized deadbolts, rollers full of sand, a gate spring rusted through, then the swollen door, the soft sill corner and the caulk at the sashes. We carry stainless replacements, seal the end grain and work from your photos and a lockbox when you are not in town.
Homes built from the 1950s into the 1970s, with plaster walls, original wood doors, open-beam patio covers and fascia that the sprinklers have hit for fifty years. The list here is a door that binds in a settled frame, a plaster crack over the window, a soft beam end, a garage jamb crumbling at the slab and the items a buyer's inspection turned up. We keep what can be saved, splice new wood into old and clear the report.
Stucco homes and condos on slope lots, with heavy entry doors, walls of sliders, decks facing the ocean wind and long fascia runs under tile. The list is adjustment and hardware: a heavy door that sags on hinges too small for it, a slider off its track, a railing post loose at the base, drywall cracks from a settling slab, all matched to the association's scheme. Parts of the Coast sit in the very high fire hazard zone, which changes what an exterior door can be.
Call 714-844-1582 or text photos of the worst three items. Most of a Newport Beach list is priced on the call and goes on the calendar in the same conversation.
You get the list back in writing with a price on each line before anyone drives out. A sill, a deck section or a bathroom item gets a look first and its own written scope.
A Kaminskiy-certified technician arrives with stainless hardware, rollers, caulk and patch material on the truck and works the list top to bottom. Special-order parts are scheduled before we leave.
The house is left clean, the one-year workmanship warranty is on the invoice, and a second-home owner gets photos of every finished item by text.
California lets an unlicensed handyman take only a small repair under a set amount, and only when it needs no permit and nobody is hired to help. A door swap, a deck railing or a run of harbor rot is past that line and wants a licensed contractor. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds License #1106209, is bonded and insured, sends Kaminskiy-certified, background-checked technicians, and writes up every job over the state's contract threshold before it starts.
The city adopts the California Residential Code and publishes no exempt-work handout of its own, so the state rule governs: no application for ordinary repairs, and painting, cabinets and similar finish work exempt outright. New hardware, a rehung door, a patched wall and a rebuilt sill are ordinary repairs. A replacement window or sliding door is permitted here, a deck rebuild has been, and cutting any wall or structural member always is, so those get a call to the Building Division first.
Most of the city is in the coastal zone, which concerns new development and views rather than a rehung door or a new sill. Parts of Newport Coast and Newport Ridge are in the very high fire hazard zone, where an exterior glazed door has a standard to meet, so we check the address before you buy one. The Coast, Crystal Cove, Harbor View Hills, Eastbluff and the island associations rarely ask about a repair painted to match; a new door or color usually needs the form, and the condo associations carry California's balcony inspection law.
Ten minutes up Jamboree. Your Newport Beach crew dispatches from our Orange County office on Michelson Drive in Irvine, ten minutes from the Back Bay, and carries stainless hardware for the islands. Call 714-844-1582, text a photo, or send the form.
Can't find your answer? Call 714-844-1582 and ask us anything.
Call 714-844-1582Yes, and in Newport Beach it should. The deadbolt, the slider, the bath fan, the gate spring, the drywall patch and the soft sill go on one call, and one Kaminskiy-certified technician works through them in a single visit with the hardware on the truck. Anything that needs a special-order part is booked before we leave.
The roof, the electrical panel, a re-pipe and a gas line go to the licensed specialty trade; termite treatment is the licensed pest company's; and a beam over the water that carries load gets an engineer first. We tell you which on the call and come back for the carpentry around their work.
The office is ten minutes up Jamboree. We answer in under three rings, price most of the list on the call and usually schedule within days; on the islands the technician plans the walk from the truck, and for a second home we work from photos and a lockbox.
It depends on the list. Describe it or text photos and the price comes on the call, line by line, in writing, before anything is booked. A sill, a deck section or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. The access is in the price from the start, so there is no surprise at the house.
Yes. Every item carries our one-year workmanship warranty in writing, done by a Kaminskiy-certified, background-checked technician, and the stainless hardware we fit is chosen to last within sight of the harbor.
That is most of what the Peninsula asks of us. Send the photos, leave a lockbox, and the technician works the list, sends a picture of each finished item and leaves the house ready for the weekend you arrive.
All of Newport Beach, including the Balboa Peninsula, Balboa Island, Lido Isle, Corona del Mar, West Newport, Newport Heights, Westcliff, Dover Shores, Eastbluff, Big Canyon, Newport Coast and Crystal Cove, plus Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach and Laguna Beach.
