One visit for the whole repair list

Handyman repairs in Bozeman usually come as a list, not a single job: a door that fits differently now that the heat is on, a railing on the entry steps that has worked loose, a ceiling fan still in its box, a caulk line that split over the winter, and a towel bar pulling out of the drywall. Send us the list and we plan one visit with a craftsman who can work through it, instead of booking a different person for every item. You get one estimate, one invoice, a background-checked craftsman and workmanship guaranteed in writing for a year. Call (800) 884-2639 to start.

Bozeman homes wear in a few predictable ways. The dry, low-humidity air shrinks wood through the winter, so trim joints open, caulk lines split and doors that closed fine in August rub or stop latching in January. Older houses near downtown, in the Bon Ton and South Willson districts and the Northeast neighborhood, add settled floors, original doors and worn porch steps. Newer homes on the west and north sides tend to arrive with a builder punch list that nobody ever finished.

Some items on a list may need a licensed trade and a permit under Montana rules. Your estimate spells out which parts of the job that applies to before anything is scheduled.

What goes on the list

Repairs that fit a typical visit

01

Doors and hardware

Sticking or sagging doors adjusted and rehung, new locksets and deadbolts, storm door closers and sweeps, and sliding closet doors put back on their track.

02

Fans and fixtures

Ceiling fans assembled and hung on fan-rated boxes, light fixtures swapped, and loud bath exhaust fans replaced with quieter units.

03

Walls and trim

Drywall dings and nail pops patched and painted, loose baseboard and casing reset, and split caulk lines cut out and redone cleanly.

04

Rails and stairs

Wobbly stair and entry railings tightened or rebuilt, loose treads secured, and handrails added where a staircase never had one.

05

Mounting and assembly

TVs, shelving, mirrors, curtain rods, grab bars and mudroom hooks put up level and anchored into framing rather than hollow drywall.

06

Small fixes around the house

Dripping faucets, running toilets, worn weatherstripping and torn screens, scoped on the same estimate so they ride along with everything else.

Why a list beats a single service call

Booking one person per problem means paying for a trip every time and taking more days off to let people in. When you hand us the full list, we estimate it as one project, send a craftsman whose skills fit the mix, and schedule enough time to finish it. Small items that are not worth a visit on their own ride along with the bigger ones, and you deal with one company, one schedule and one written guarantee.

Before you call

How to get the most out of one visit

01

Write everything down

Walk the house room by room, including the mudroom, garage and porch, and list every small thing that bothers you. Ten-minute items are easy to add once a craftsman is already there.

02

Take photos

A photo of each item, plus the model number on fixtures and fans, lets us plan parts and time before the visit instead of discovering them on the day.

03

Buy fixtures ahead

If you have picked a light fixture, faucet or fan, have it on site. We are happy to install customer-supplied items.

04

Flag the urgent ones

Tell us which items are safety issues, such as a loose railing on icy entry steps, so they get done first.

How it works

How a repair visit works

  1. 01

    Tell us what you need

    Call (800) 884-2639 or send the estimate form with a short description and a few photos, and our office will follow up to set a time.

  2. 02

    A clear estimate

    We review your list and photos, confirm what fits in one visit, and give you a written estimate before any work is scheduled.

  3. 03

    The right craftsman

    We match the list to a craftsman whose skills cover it, and the estimate notes any item that falls under Montana trade or permit rules.

  4. 04

    Guaranteed in writing

    A background-checked craftsman does the work and cleans up. Our workmanship is guaranteed for one year from the invoice date, and if a defect in our work shows up in that time we repair it free of charge.

Cost

What affects the cost of a repair visit

01

How many items, and how long each takes

Most repair visits are priced on the time the list needs, which is why grouping items together is the most cost-effective way to use a visit.

02

Parts and materials

Hardware, fixtures and materials are part of the estimate unless you are supplying them.

03

Trade and permit items

Anything that falls under Montana trade or permit rules is identified and scoped separately on the same estimate.

04

What turns up behind the wall

Occasionally a simple repair uncovers a bigger problem, such as rot behind a loose porch railing. We stop and talk to you before going past the estimate.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a minimum job size?
Small jobs are welcome. Grouping several repairs into one visit is the most cost-effective way to use a craftsman's time, so we recommend sending the whole list when you call.
How do I get an estimate?
Call (800) 884-2639 or send the estimate form with your list. Photos of each item help us plan the visit and send the right craftsman.
Are your craftsmen background checked?
Yes. Every craftsman who works in your home has passed a background check, and Handyman Connection of Bozeman is insured.
Do you supply the parts?
We can supply parts and materials, or install items you have already bought, such as a ceiling fan, light fixture or faucet.
Can plumbing and electrical items go on the same list?
Small fixture work often can. Some of this work needs a licensed trade and a permit under Montana rules. Your estimate spells out which parts of the job that applies to before anything is scheduled.
Can you mount a TV on drywall?
Yes. We mount TVs into the wall framing, or with anchors rated for the weight where framing is not where you need it.
Why do my doors fit differently in winter?
Bozeman's air gets very dry once the heat is running, so wood doors and frames shrink, and houses settle. Adjusting hinges and strike plates, and planing or shimming where needed, usually gets a door closing and latching properly again.
Why do my caulk lines keep splitting?
Dry air and big day-to-night temperature swings move trim, tubs and counters a little all the time. We cut out the failed caulk and use a flexible product suited to the joint so it moves with the house.
Do you work on older homes near downtown?
Yes. Older Bozeman houses often have original doors, trim and porches worth keeping. We repair and adjust them rather than replace them wherever that makes sense.
Is repair work covered by your guarantee?
Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed in writing for one year from the invoice date. If a defect in our work appears in that time, we repair it free of charge under the terms of your agreement.
