Irvine's doors age village by village: original solid wood doors in the first villages, thirty-year-old sliders and sagging builder doors in Woodbridge and Northwood, settling and hardware in the newest streets, and a jamb bottom the drip line keeps wet everywhere. From our office on Michelson Drive we rehang, re-roller, rebuild the frame and install the door the association approved.

THE LISTALL DONEEvery one of these is a short visit for a Kaminskiy-certified technician who starts the day on Michelson Drive. One list, one call.

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.
Stucco and wood-trim homes from the late 1960s through the 1980s, with open-beam patio covers, original solid wood doors, wood fascia and attached homes with wood balconies. Forty years of irrigation have found the post bases and jamb bottoms, the sliders are on their first rollers, and the drywall has cracked where the slab settled. We rebuild, rehang and match the association's color.
Newer homes on slope lots with decks, railings and French doors facing the afternoon wind off the coast. Deck boards go soft at the ends, railing posts rot at the base, heavy entry doors sag on hinges too small for them, and several of these villages are now inside the 2025 fire map. We rebuild where the wood stands and check the fire rule before an exterior door changes.
The youngest homes in the city, where the builder parts are good but the hardware, the caulk and the settling are not: doors that rub after the first summer, locksets that loosen, foam trim that cracks at the joints, garage jambs on the slab. Design standards are strict, so we photograph the profile and the color and match both.
Water on a timer and sun on the west face. Every village was planted with sprinklers and drip lines that run before dawn and soak the same post, jamb and stucco corner every day of the year; the inland sun then checks the paint until the winter rain gets in. Add builder-grade doors and sliders reaching thirty or forty years, and the list writes itself, small if it is caught early.
Doors, sliders, drywall, trim, patio covers, fences, balconies, rot, caulk and fixtures are handyman work. A roof, an electrical panel, a re-pipe or anything structural goes to the licensed specialty trade, and a patio cover beam that carries a roof gets an engineer's look; we say so on the call. Termite treatment is the licensed pest company's; the rebuild is ours.
Most Irvine jobs are priced on the call, in writing, from a description or a photo, before anything goes on the calendar. A rebuilt patio cover beam, a balcony item or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. The price you approve is the price at the house, fifteen minutes from our office.
The cheapest repair in Irvine is the emitter we move. When the technician is at the house for the jamb or the post base, he looks at what wet it, turns or caps the head that hits the stucco, and tells you which run to shorten on the shady side. The wood we rebuild lasts as long as the timer lets it.
Tell us the list, or text a photo of the worst item. Most small repairs are priced on the call, in writing, in under ten minutes.
A Kaminskiy-certified technician comes with a stocked truck and works through the list in one visit wherever the parts allow.
A door swap, a rotted frame or a bathroom refresh gets a visit and a written scope before anything starts. No surprises at the house.
The work area is left clean and every repair carries our one-year workmanship warranty, on paper.
California lets a repair under a small set amount be done without a license when it needs no permit and nobody is employed to do it; the rest of an Irvine list, a door swap, a railing, a run of rot, wants a licensed contractor. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds License #1106209, is bonded and insured, with Kaminskiy-certified, background-checked technicians, and puts every job over the state's written-contract threshold on paper first.
Irvine publishes a short list of work that needs no permit: painting, papering and similar finish work, replacement windows and doors of the same dimension, fences to seven feet, platforms and walks to thirty inches. The city says a permit is required for most construction or repair regulated by code, and a patio cover needs one at any size. A patched wall, a rehung door, a rebuilt sill or a same-size door is on the exempt side; a patio cover beam or framing is not, and we ask the Permit Processing Center before a job like that.
Every Irvine village has an association that reviews the outside of the house: a repair painted to the approved color rarely needs a form, a new front door, color or trim profile usually does, and we give you the size, style and finish in writing for it. The condo and townhome associations carry California's balcony inspection law, and the carpentry it flags is our lane. Irvine adopted the 2025 fire hazard map, which reaches into Orchard Hills, Woodbury, Portola Springs, Quail Hill and Turtle Rock, so we check an exterior door there before you buy.
Our office is in Irvine. The Orange County office on Michelson Drive, near Jamboree and the 405, is where the crew starts the day, so an Irvine call is usually on the calendar within days. Call 714-844-1582, text a photo, or send the form. The whole county is on our Orange County handyman page.

Describe the job or text a photo and the price comes on the call, in writing, before anything is booked. A patio cover beam, a balcony item or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. What you approve is what you pay at the house.
Yes. The slider, the garage-to-house closer, the drywall crack and the gate latch go on one list, and one Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works through it. Anything needing a special-order part is scheduled before we leave.
Yes, on both counts. The company holds California contractor License #1106209 with the bond and the insurance behind it, and the technician at your door is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked. The one-year workmanship warranty is written into every job.
Not finish work, a rehung door, a patched wall or a replacement door of the same dimension, which are on the city's own exempt list. Irvine reads the rule tightly past that: a patio cover needs a permit at any size, and so does framing. We ask the Permit Processing Center before a job like that and tell you what it said.
A repair painted to the approved scheme needs nothing from the association. A new front door, a new color or a changed trim profile usually needs the form first, and we give you the size, style and finish in writing so it is a five-minute job.
