Los Angeles specifics
Earthquake response: After a significant quake, we prioritize gas-leak assessment, chimney inspection (visual), water heater restrapping, and broken glass cleanup. We do not do structural engineering — but we can assess obvious damage and refer engineers.
Storm season: LA's rare but intense rainstorms cause gutter overflow, fence collapse, hillside drainage issues, and fallen tree/branch damage. We handle cleanup and temporary repairs same-day.
Response radius: For true emergencies we cover the core LA basin (Hollywood to Downtown to the Westside to the Valley). Outlying areas (Malibu, Palos Verdes, far east SGV) may have longer response times.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can you respond?
Same-day for established clients and active emergencies. For true emergencies (water actively flowing, security breach), we aim for 2-4 hours within the core LA basin. Non-urgent after-hours issues are scheduled for next business day.
Is there an after-hours surcharge?
Emergency dispatch during business hours: standard rates + dispatch fee. After-hours (evenings, weekends, holidays): dispatch fee may be higher depending on timing and location. We quote before dispatching so there are no surprises.
What if I need a licensed plumber or electrician?
Our emergency handyman handles the immediate mitigation (shutoff, board-up, temp fix). If the permanent repair requires a licensed trade, we coordinate that as a follow-up — usually next business day. You are never left with an unresolved emergency.
Do you handle fire damage?
Minor fire damage (small kitchen fire, smoke damage, melted outlet) — yes. Major fire damage requiring structural work, insurance coordination, and remediation — no, that is restoration contractor territory. We can refer trusted restoration companies.
Can I pre-register for faster emergency response?
Yes. Existing clients with an active service agreement get priority emergency scheduling. We maintain your address, access instructions, and property notes for rapid dispatch.
