A handyman for Menlo Park's postwar houses
More Menlo Park housing went up in the 1950s than in any other decade, 23.2% of units, and 70.3% of the city's 13,388 units were built before 1980. Population rose from 7,180 in 1946 to 13,587 in 1950, after the city annexed Belle Haven and Suburban Park in 1949. Houses of that age share a to-do list: loose latches, tired caulk, dripping faucets and worn door sweeps.
A picture of each fix, sent by text, is the simplest way to price the whole list. Noisy work stays on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., when the city exempts construction noise from its residential limit. If an item turns out to need a permit, it is contracted through our licensed partner Bay Builder Inc, and the application goes in through Menlo Park's online portal.

Thumbtack reviews five stars on every review shown
J&J and Junior and crew provides great Handyman services and support especially for seniors that need a little excellent home maintenance for a reasonable price. Junior and crew repaired and caulked my upstairs shower pan to its shower wall and helped mme clean up my roof deck by cleaning up leafe debris. They were prompt and knowledgeable and honest about their estimates to complete the maintenance. Highly recommended for repair and fixing those tough maintenance jobs you don’t have the time or expertise to finish.

Handyman in Menlo Park: questions
Do you work in Menlo Park?
Yes. Menlo Park is about 20 road miles from our base in San Bruno, roughly 30 minutes without traffic. We work all over town, from Allied Arts/Stanford Park to The Willows.
Who issues permits in Menlo Park?
The City of Menlo Park Community Development Department, Building Division. Repairs and like-for-like replacements often don't need a permit; layout changes, new plumbing or new electrical usually do. When one is needed, the job is contracted through our licensed partner Bay Builder Inc.
When can noisy work happen in Menlo Park?
Construction noise is exempt from the residential noise limit 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday; on weekends and holidays, only residents and owners doing their own work get that exemption, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We schedule noisy work inside those hours.
Do you take small jobs?
Yes. A lot of our work is exactly that: a door, a stain on the ceiling, a TV, a few lines of caulk. If the list is short, we try to fit it into a single visit.
