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 San Diego and the surrounding California communities.
The whole to-do list, one technician, one visit, priced before the truck leaves Rancho Bernardo.
The door is the first line on most San Diego lists. Salt air pits the hinges and the strike plate near the water, sprinklers soak the jamb bottom inland, and drywood termites hollow the frame from the inside. A door that drags, a slider that stalls on grit, a window that will not lock or a screen the dog went through gets fixed on the same visit as everything else: rehung, re-rollered, rebuilt at the sill, new hardware fitted and the trim painted to match.
None of these is a project. Each is one line on a list a Kaminskiy-certified technician clears in a visit from Rancho Bernardo, priced before the truck leaves.
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 San Diego repair.
Write it all down, the small things with the small-but-annoying things: the door, the drywall dent, the caulk, the fan, the fixture, the loose rail, the gate. Text it with a photo of the worst item. One technician with a stocked truck works the list in order on one visit, and anything that needs a special-order part is scheduled before he leaves. A list is cheaper than five single calls, and it gets done.
Most San Diego lists are priced on the call from the description and the photos, in writing, before anything goes on the calendar. A long list, a rotted frame or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. The number you approve is the number on the invoice, and the one-year workmanship warranty is on the same page.
Almost nothing on a repair list. The City of San Diego exempts like-for-like maintenance repairs under a set cost, and calls paint, cabinets and flooring cosmetic, so a rehung door, a drywall patch, a new sill or a run of trim needs no paperwork. A bigger in-kind damage repair goes on the city's no-plan permit with an inspection, a window turned into a door takes a plan, and the other cities in the county keep their own lists. We say which on the call.
A list stops at the licensed trades. A re-pipe, a water heater or a gas line is a licensed plumber's; a panel, a new circuit or rewiring is a licensed electrician's; the roof itself is a licensed roofer's; termite treatment and the report are the licensed pest company's, and we rebuild what they ate afterward. Anything that holds the house up waits for an engineer, and a full remodel in San Diego goes to Kaminskiy Design and Remodeling. We tell you which on the call and name who to call.
Cottages, duplexes and condos that live in the marine layer half the year. The list runs to rusted closers and deadbolts, a front door swollen at the bottom rail, a screen door that no longer latches, caulk gone gray at the windows and a balcony rail that moves in the hand. We fit stainless and coated hardware, seal the end grain, recaulk and repaint the weather side, and replace the rail post before the deck needs more.
Association neighborhoods built from the 1970s on, where the same house repeats a hundred times and so does its list: sliders on dead rollers, a hairline over the garage door, fascia paint split by the sun, a jamb the sprinkler rotted, a bathroom fan that hums. One visit covers the inside and the outside list, painted to the scheme, with the materials written down in case the association asks.
Bungalows, Spanish cottages and 1950s ranch houses with plaster walls, wood sash and doors that have settled with the frame. Here the list is a door planed to close, a plaster crack keyed and patched, a window weight re-corded, a soft sill at the porch, a run of base molding matched to a profile nobody mills anymore. We keep the original parts where they can be saved and copy them where they cannot.
Call 858-330-5590 or text the list with a photo of the worst item. Most San Diego lists are priced on that call.
The price, the items and the date come back in writing. Nothing is scheduled until you approve it, and the price does not change at the house.
A Kaminskiy-certified, background checked technician works the list top to bottom with a stocked truck, and tells you before adding anything you did not ask for.
The dust leaves with us, the trim is painted, and the one-year workmanship warranty is printed on the invoice with the items it covers.
California allows an unlicensed person to take a repair below a set small amount, but only when no permit is involved and nobody is employed to help, and a real list runs past that line by the third item: a door swap, a run of rot, a railing. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds California contractor License #1106209, is bonded and insured, sends Kaminskiy-certified and background checked technicians, and puts every job over the state's written-contract threshold on paper before anyone drives out.
Inside the City of San Diego a maintenance repair under a set cost that replaces like for like is exempt, and painting, cabinet work and floor covering are cosmetic by the municipal code, so the ordinary list needs nothing filed. An in-kind damage repair larger than that goes on a no-plan permit with a pre-construction inspection, and a changed opening or anything structural takes drawings. Poway, Carlsbad, Encinitas and the county keep lists of their own, and we check the one for your address before we price work near the line.
Scripps Ranch, Carmel Valley, Rancho Bernardo and most of the inland tracts have associations. A repair finished in the approved color needs no form; a new door style, a different trim profile or a new color usually does, and we write the materials and finish down so the form takes five minutes. A designated historic house, or one inside a historic district, gets the city's review before anything on the outside changes, and a like-for-like repair is not a change.
Where Kaminskiy started. Our San Diego crew works out of the office on World Trade Drive in Rancho Bernardo and covers the whole county, from the coast to the inland valleys. Call 858-330-5590, text a photo, or send the form, and we answer in under three rings.
Can't find your answer? Call 858-330-5590 and ask us anything.
Call 858-330-5590That is what the page is for. The sticking door, the drywall dent, the dark caulk, the rattling fan and the gate latch go on one list, and one Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works through it on one visit. If an item needs a part we do not carry, it is ordered and scheduled before he leaves.
The licensed trades. A re-pipe, a water heater or a gas line is a licensed plumber's; a panel or a new circuit is a licensed electrician's; the roof itself is a licensed roofer's; termite treatment is the licensed pest company's, and we rebuild after them. Anything structural waits for an engineer, and a full remodel in San Diego goes to Kaminskiy Design and Remodeling. We say so on the call.
We answer in under three rings, price most lists on that call and usually schedule within days. The technician comes from our World Trade Drive office in Rancho Bernardo, and the beach towns, the inland tracts and the old neighborhoods all get the same answer.
It depends on the list, not on a flat visit fee. Describe the items or text photos and the price comes on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled. A long list or a rotted frame gets a look and a written scope first. The price you approve is the price on the invoice.
Yes. Every job carries a one-year workmanship warranty in writing, done by Kaminskiy-certified, background checked technicians, under California contractor License #1106209, bonded and insured. The licensed trades we hand work to carry their own.
Not the ordinary ones. The City of San Diego exempts like-for-like maintenance repairs under a set cost, and treats paint, cabinets and flooring as cosmetic, so a rehung door, a patch, a sill or a run of trim needs nothing. A larger in-kind damage repair or a changed opening is where we check with the city first, and the other cities in the county have their own lists.
Yes, that is a common San Diego list: the missing GFCI cover, the loose rail, the door that will not latch, the caulk, the drywall patch, the gate. Send the report and the items come back priced in writing, cleared and primed before the photos or the reinspection.
