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 Lake Oswego and the surrounding Oregon communities.
The office is on Centerpointe Drive. Swollen doors, full gutters and the lake-house list lead.
A Lake Oswego door is the first thing on the list from the first rain to June. The fir doors on the Old Town and First Addition cottages swell under the firs and need a shoulder, the French doors on the lake and hill houses will not latch, and a slider on the west side drags on worn rollers. We plane and seal the door to the wet season, reset the hinges, replace rollers and weatherstrip, unstick a painted-shut window and go on to the gutters.
All of it is routine for a Kaminskiy-certified technician who starts the day on Centerpointe Drive, minutes from any street in the city. One call, one list.
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 Lake Oswego repair.
A Lake Oswego list is seasonal: the gutters before the rain, the moss and the door before the guests, the deck rail before summer. One Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck takes the whole list in one visit, from your photos and a lockbox if you are away, with a picture of each finished item, and anything needing a special-order part is scheduled before we leave.
Text the list or a photo and most Lake Oswego repairs are priced in writing before anything goes on the calendar; with the office across town a look at a bigger item is easy to fit in. A deck over the water, a run of shingles or a bath refresh gets that look and then a written scope. The number you approve is the number you pay, and if a board hides more rot than the photo showed you hear it before we go on.
Not the seasonal list. The city's Building Department administers Oregon's statewide residential code, which asks no permit to repair or replace siding or shingles that are not fire-rated, to replace a window or a door in the same opening, to paint, for gutters, or for a deck under 30 inches, and no application for an ordinary repair with like materials. A tall deck, a rotted beam or a post that carries a roof is where the city's alteration-and-repair permit starts, and we say so on the call.
Electrical and plumbing are separate state licenses in Oregon and go to the licensed trade, as do the roof, gas work and anything that holds the house or the deck up; we name who to call and do the carpentry around them. Carpenter ants and dampwood termites are the licensed pest company's to treat; we fix the water and rebuild the wood. Doors, gutters, moss, drywall, plaster, caulk, hardware, shingles and the rest of the list are ours.
Cottages and houses from the 1920s to the 1950s in cedar shingle and lap siding with fir trim, fir doors and porches, some on the water and about seventy of them on the city's Landmark List. The list is a door that swells, a shingle butt gone soft, a porch post base, plaster to patch, a window painted shut. We use identical materials on a landmark house, which is exactly what the city asks for, and keep the repair to what was there.
Streets from the 1970s to the 1990s with association standards, cedar or hardboard siding, sliders that open all summer and decks between neighbors. Rollers wear flat, weatherstrip flattens, a window corner stains where water got behind siding set before the moisture rules, drywall cracks at the corners. We fix the hardware, rebuild the section, match the association's color and write the materials down for the form.
Steep lots under tall firs with long fascia runs, gutters that fill with needles, decks on tall posts and front doors in deep shade. The list is gutters cleared and resealed, moss off the shaded shingles, a deck board rotted at the end, a rail post soft at the base and a door that sticks all winter. We work where it stands, and when a ledger looks wrong we say so before anyone opens a wall.
Call 503-912-7872 or text the list with a photo. Most Lake Oswego repairs are priced on that call and scheduled within days from Centerpointe Drive, off Kruse Way.
The price reaches you in writing before anyone drives out, item by item, so the lake-house list is approved line by line from wherever you are.
A Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works it in order: gutters cleared and resealed, moss off the shingles, the door planed and sealed, the plaster patched, the caulk renewed.
The one-year workmanship warranty is printed on the invoice under CCB #252813, the special-order items are on the calendar, and the dust goes with us.
Oregon has no unlicensed-handyman category: anyone paid to repair, improve or build a home needs a Construction Contractors Board license, and the only exception is a casual one-off by someone outside the trade who never advertises. Kaminskiy Care and Repair holds CCB #252813, is bonded and insured, and sends Kaminskiy-certified, background checked technicians. Electrical and plumbing are licensed separately by the state and anything structural needs the right license, so those are named as hand-offs on the call.
Lake Oswego's Building Department administers the statewide residential code: no permit for siding or shingle repair that is not fire-rated, for a same-size window or door, for paint, for gutters or for a deck under 30 inches, and no application for an ordinary repair in like materials. A deck over 30 inches, which most hillside decks are, a rotted beam or a load-bearing post is where the city's alteration-and-repair permit begins, and we say so before we quote.
About seventy Lake Oswego properties sit on the city's Landmark Designation List, many of them in Old Town and First Addition. The city's own guide says ordinary maintenance and minor repairs in identical materials and appearance need no application, and repainting a painted surface needs no approval; a new window design or a changed material does, and we tell you when a repair is near that line. Mountain Park, Westlake and the hillside associations rarely want a form for a repair painted to match.
Our office is in Lake Oswego. The crew starts the day on Centerpointe Drive, off Kruse Way, so a Lake Oswego call is usually on the calendar within days and a second look is easy. Call 503-912-7872, text a photo, or send the form.

Call 503-912-7872Usually. The swollen door, the gutters full of needles, the moss, the plaster crack, the tub caulk and the towel bar go on one list, and a Kaminskiy-certified technician with a stocked truck works through it, from your photos and a lockbox if you are away, with a picture of each item when it is done.
Electrical and plumbing, which are separate state licenses in Oregon, the roof, gas work and anything structural, which go to the right licensed contractor, and pest treatment, which is the licensed pest company's. We tell you who to call and do the carpentry, drywall and paint around their work.
Faster than any other city we serve, because the office is on Centerpointe Drive off Kruse Way, minutes from every Lake Oswego street. We pick up in under three rings, price most of the list on the call and are usually at the house within days.
The list sets it. Send it with a photo and the number comes in writing before anything is booked; a deck over the water, a course of shingles or a bathroom item gets a look first, which is easy from an office across town. If a board turns out to hide more rot than the photo showed, you hear about it before we go further.
Yes. The one-year workmanship warranty is printed on the invoice under CCB #252813, the technicians are Kaminskiy-certified and background checked, and the company is bonded and insured.
No. Shingle or siding repair, a same-size window or door, paint, gutters and a low deck are exempt under the state code the city administers, and an ordinary repair in like materials needs no application. A deck above 30 inches, a rotted beam or a post that carries load is where the city's alteration-and-repair permit begins, and we tell you on the call.
Yes, and the city asks for exactly what we do: ordinary maintenance and minor repairs in identical materials and appearance need no application, and repainting a painted surface needs no approval. A different window design or a change of material goes to the city first, and we tell you before anything is ordered.
