San Antonio doors fight two things: a summer that runs in the mid nineties for months, and a clay soil that lifts and drops the slab under the frame. Entry doors warp and the finish peels on the west face, interior doors rub the jamb after a dry spell, patio sliders drag in dusty tracks, and the latch stops meeting the strike. We plane, rehang and seal, reset the strike, replace the rollers, rebuild a rotted jamb and install the new door you bought. Replacing an existing door needs no city permit.

Every job is backed in writing by our workmanship warranty and done by a Kaminskiy-certified, background checked technician.
Wood and brick homes from the 1880s to the 1930s, many in historic districts, with original doors, wood windows and plaster walls. Trim rots at the sill, doors bind in frames that settled a century ago, and repairs have to match what is there and pass the preservation office on a street that needs it. We splice new wood into old and keep the character.
Stone Oak was master planned from 1985, and the north side filled in through the 1990s and 2000s with stucco and brick homes in associations. The work is sliders and entry doors at twenty-five years, settling cracks in the drywall, hail-pocked siding and fascia, and a cedar fence the clay has leaned. We match the scheme and put the materials in writing for the form.
Schertz and Cibolo grew with Randolph, Cibolo tenfold since 2000; New Braunfels and Boerne are German towns from the 1840s with new tracts filling in around them. The list is new-build punch work, warped doors, grout, caulk, a deck off the back and the water damage after a creek rises. Each of these cities has its own building department, and we ask it, not San Antonio's, before we quote.
Two things do the damage: a summer that averages ninety-five in July and August, and a clay soil that swells with the May rain and shrinks in the drought. Paint and caulk fail first, then the wood behind them; the slab lifts and drops and the doors and the drywall show it. Most of what we fix in San Antonio waited a season too long.
Doors, drywall, trim, fences, decks, rot, caulk, siding and the bathroom list are ours. Electrical, plumbing and air conditioning are licensed trades in Texas and never our work; a roof, foundation repair and anything structural go to the licensed specialist too, and we tell you so on the call. Termite treatment is the pest company's job; rebuilding what the termites ate is ours.
Describe the job or text a photo to the national line and most San Antonio repairs are priced on the call, in writing, before anything goes on the calendar. A rotted frame, a slider swap or a bathroom item gets a look from the local crew first and a written scope. You approve, then we start.
A door that rubs is a plane and a rehang, not a new door, and replacing an existing door needs no city permit either way. A fence is a repair while it is a quarter or less of the run; past that it is a new fence and the city wants a permit. We tell you which side of the line a job is on before we quote, and when it is the permit side, which city we have to ask.
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.
Texas has no state license for a handyman or a general contractor; the state licenses by trade. Electrical, plumbing and air conditioning work is licensed and is never ours: it goes to the licensed electrician, plumber or air conditioning contractor, and we say so on the call. Inside the city, a contractor who pulls a permit for non-structural repair or remodeling must be registered with Development Services as a Home Improvement Contractor, with a background check and insurance on file; structural work, additions and foundation repair take the Residential Building Contractor registration. Kaminskiy Care and Repair is bonded and insured as a company, and when a job needs a permit we tell you on the call who will pull it and under which registration.
San Antonio's Development Services publishes a no-permit list for houses: painting, plastering, sheet rock repair, wallpaper and tile; cabinets and countertops; carpet and wood flooring; replacing an existing door; window repair limited to the glass; new siding over existing siding; a retaining wall under four feet; and a shed of three hundred square feet or less. A fence repair of a quarter or less of the run needs no permit; a new fence does. A deck needs no permit when it is two hundred square feet or less, under thirty inches off the ground, not attached to the house and not at the exit door. A roof always needs one. Anything past that list, we call the city first and tell you what it said.
Stone Oak, Rogers Ranch and most of the north side are association communities: a repair painted to match rarely needs a form, a new color, door style or fence line usually does, and we put the materials in writing for it. King William and Monte Vista are historic districts, and the city says a historic, neighborhood conservation or corridor district can restrict design and materials even for work on the no-permit list, so an exterior door or window there goes past the preservation office first. Alamo Heights, Schertz, Cibolo, New Braunfels and Boerne are their own cities with their own rules, and we ask the right one.
A local crew, scheduled by phone. Kaminskiy has no office in San Antonio. The work is done by a local San Antonio crew that we dispatch through our national line: you call 210-940-3841, text a photo or send the form, the job is priced on the call in writing, and the crew is usually at the house within days.

Call 210-940-3841No. Kaminskiy has no office or address in San Antonio. The work is done by a local San Antonio crew that we dispatch through our national line. You call 210-940-3841, the job is priced on the call in writing, and the crew is usually at the house within days.
Tell us the list, or text a photo of the worst item, and you get the price on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled. There is no mystery service fee waiting at the house. A bigger job, a rotted frame or a bathroom refresh, gets a look from the local crew first and a written scope.
That is how San Antonio homeowners use us. The slider, the drywall crack, the fence gate and the caulk go on one list, and one crew works through it with a stocked truck. Anything that needs a part we do not carry gets scheduled before we leave.
Not for handyman work: Texas has no state handyman or general contractor license. The state does license electricians, plumbers and air conditioning contractors, and that work is never ours; it goes to the licensed trade and we tell you so. Inside San Antonio a job that needs a permit must be pulled by a contractor registered with the city's Development Services, and we tell you on the call how your job will be handled.
Usually not. The city's own no-permit list covers painting, plaster and sheet rock repair, tile, cabinets, flooring, replacing an existing door, glass-only window repair, siding over siding, a retaining wall under four feet and a shed of three hundred square feet or less. A fence repair of a quarter or less of the run and a small freestanding deck are exempt too. A new fence, a roof, a changed opening or anything structural is where we call Development Services first and tell you what it said.
Yes, and we treat it the way those houses deserve: new wood spliced into old, plaster patched rather than torn out, hardware kept. Both are historic districts, and the city can restrict design and materials there even for work that needs no permit, so an exterior door, window or fence change goes past the preservation office before we start.
