San Marcos runs from 1960s lakeside homes to the newest hillside villages, and the doors tell you which is which: original wood doors in settled frames by the lake, thirty-year-old sliders in the middle, and hardware and adjustment on the new streets. We rehang, rebuild, re-roller and install, matched to the association where there is one.

THE LISTALL DONEEach one is a short visit for a Kaminskiy-certified technician from our San Diego office. One list, one call.
Priced and on the calendar during the first call.
A written quote you approve before anyone drives out.
One crew, truck stocked, warranty in writing.
A one-year workmanship warranty, in writing, on every San Marcos job.
Planned villages from the 1990s on, nearly all in associations. Doors and sliders at the age where rollers and hinges go, drywall cracks from slab movement on the cut lots, and fascia where the sprinklers reach. We match the scheme and put the materials in writing for the form.
1960s and 1970s homes with original wood doors, patio covers and fences, some on a lake that keeps the near side damp. Doors bind in settled frames, beam ends rot, decks facing the water go soft. We keep the original where it can be saved and rebuild the rest.
Newer homes and a lot of rentals. The work is turnovers, nail holes by the room, doors that took a beating, texture-matched patches and the fixtures list, priced up front and finished on schedule.
An inland valley ten degrees hotter than the coast most afternoons, with winter rain that finds the cracks the summer opened. Caulk and paint fail first, then the wood behind them; sprinklers keep the bottoms of posts and jambs wet all year. Small jobs, cheap when they are caught early.
Doors, drywall, trim, fences, decks, patio covers, rot, caulk and fixtures are handyman work. A roof, an electrical panel, a re-pipe or a load-bearing member goes to the licensed specialty trade, and we say so on the call rather than at the house. Treatment is the pest company's; the rebuild is ours.
Most San Marcos jobs are priced on the call, in writing, from a description or a photo, before anything is scheduled. A rebuilt patio cover beam, a hillside deck or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. What you approve is what you pay.
Many San Marcos homes sit on cut-and-fill hillside lots, and a little slab movement shows up as a crack over the door, a door that rubs at the top or a stucco hairline that comes back. We patch and match, and if a crack is wide, stepped or growing we say so and tell you who should look at the foundation first.
We answer in under three rings and most repairs are priced on the call, in writing, before anything is booked.
The technician arrives with the hardware, patching and fastening stock the usual list needs, so the first visit is the working visit.
Rot, a frame rebuild, a slider swap or a bathroom item gets a look and a written scope. You approve before work begins.
Every job is backed by our one-year workmanship warranty, and the area is clean when we leave.
California lets a small repair under a set amount be done without a license when no permit is needed and nobody is employed; the rest wants a licensed contractor. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds License #1106209, is bonded and insured, and its technicians are Kaminskiy-certified and background checked, so a door swap, a deck railing or a beam end is inside the law with us. Jobs over the state's written-contract threshold are on paper before they start.
San Marcos builds to the California Residential Code, which asks for no application or notice for ordinary repairs to a structure and exempts painting and similar finish work: a rehung door, a patched wall, a rebuilt sill, a run of trim. The code draws the line at cutting a structural beam or a load-bearing support, and work that deep gets a permit and an engineer, which we tell you on the call.
San Elijo Hills, Discovery Hills and most of the newer villages are association communities; a repair painted to match rarely needs a form, a new color or door style sometimes does, and we put the materials in writing. For the rentals near the university, the turnover list is priced up front so the numbers stay predictable between tenants.
Up the 15 and across the 78. Your San Marcos crew dispatches from our San Diego office on World Trade Drive in Rancho Bernardo, so most calls are scheduled within days. Call 858-330-5590, text a photo, or send the form. The whole county is on our San Diego handyman page.

Call 858-330-5590We answer in under three rings, price most repairs on the call and usually have a technician from our World Trade Drive office at the house within days, hillside or lakeside.
Describe the job or text a photo and the price comes on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled. A patio cover beam, a hillside deck or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. No surprises at the house.
That is a normal San Marcos morning for us. Nail holes by the room, the door that will not latch, the fan, the fixtures and the caulk go on one list, and one Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works through it between tenants.
Yes. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds California contractor License #1106209, is bonded and insured, and the technician who comes is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked, so a landlord's turnover list and a homeowner's deck railing are both inside the law. Every job carries the one-year workmanship warranty in writing.
Not ordinary repairs or finish work: the California Residential Code that San Marcos builds to asks for no application for an ordinary repair and exempts painting and similar work. Cutting a structural beam or a load-bearing support is where a permit and an engineer come in, and we tell you on the call.
Usually, yes: a little slab movement on a hillside lot opens a hairline at the corner of the door, and we patch, tape and texture it so it stays closed. If the crack is wide, stepped or growing, we say so and tell you who should look at the foundation before we patch anything.
