Services

At Fix it Friend LLC, I offer flexible flat-rate services for home repair and small carpentry — from quick single-item fixes to full-day project lists — as well as custom multi-day projects. Basic materials are included in every flat-rate package, so you know exactly what you're paying before I arrive. For custom projects, time and materials are estimated and shared before work begins.

Currently booking 2–3 weeks out.

Single Visit — From $150

Just one thing that needs doing? That's enough. You don't need a full list to book — if you have one item you want taken care of, this is the right fit.

Pricing is confirmed at booking based on the scope of your job. Most single-visit services fall between $150 and $225. Basic hardware and materials are included, so there's no extra invoice at the end.

Examples:

  • Doorknob or lock installation

  • Small drywall patch (under 1 sq ft)

  • Minor caulking touch-up

  • Light fixture replacement

  • Picture hanging or small hardware installation

  • Outdoor railing (1–3 step) installation

Flat rate includes basic materials. Price confirmed at booking based on scope. Does not include tax. Basic materials means the small stuff: screws, nails, anchors, caulk, spackle, sandpaper, wood glue, and common hardware. For anything beyond that — lumber, drywall sheets, fixtures, paint, specialty supplies — I buy at cost and add the actual receipt amount to your invoice. No markup.


Half-Day Service — $415

Best for tackling a solid fix-it list with multiple small to medium tasks. I work through your list methodically — no rushing, no cutting corners.

Basic hardware and materials are included. One flat rate, no separate receipts.

Examples:

  • Multiple small drywall patches, doorknob install, cabinet removal, wire-shelf install

  • Window caulking, shelf assembly and installation, drawer pulls

  • Minor fence or deck repair, small paint touch-up (weather permitting if outside)

  • Combination of 4–6 smaller projects from your list

Flat rate includes up to 4 hours + basic materials. Does not include tax.


Extended Service — $600

For longer project lists or more involved repairs. A full day of focused work — no rushing off to another job, just steady progress on what your home needs.

Examples:

  • Everything in the half-day list, plus:

  • Backsplash installation

  • Deck or fence section repair

  • Garage storage solutions

  • Combination of 8–12 smaller projects

Flat rate includes up to 6 hours + basic materials. Does not include tax.


Additional information:

  • Travel within 10 miles of downtown Olympia is included

  • Additional mileage fees may apply for distances beyond 10 miles

  • Materials beyond some basic hardware are purchased at cost and added to the invoice. Basic materials means the small stuff: screws, nails, anchors, caulk, spackle, sandpaper, wood glue, and common hardware. For anything beyond that — lumber, drywall sheets, fixtures, paint, specialty supplies — I buy at cost and add the actual receipt amount to your invoice. No markup.

  • Sales tax applies to labor and materials per WA state requirements

  • If a project runs significantly over the estimated time, I will discuss options with you before continuing

What I Don’t Do

To keep my focus on quality carpentry and repairs, I don’t handle:

  • In-wall plumbing, electrical or gas appliances

  • Full rooms of drywall installation

  • Full house painting

  • Roofing or insulations

  • Gutter repairs

  • Work over 2 stories high

  • Landscaping

I am more than happy to provide referrals for trusted contractors who specialize in these areas!

Custom Projects

Some projects require planning, custom measurements, or specialized builds. These are quoted individually based on scope, materials, and time required.

For select custom projects, I can provide CAD drawings and design plans to help you visualize the finished result before any work begins — including decks and outdoor structures, built-in furniture and shelving, bathroom and kitchen layouts, fence and gate designs, and catios. Just ask when you reach out.

Custom project examples include:

  • Plaster repair — takes multiple visits

  • Larger drywall repair — which can take multiple visits

  • Custom fence gates

  • Catios (outdoor cat enclosures)

  • Bathroom refreshes (vanity replacement, fixture updates, tile work)

  • Small ground-level decks or landings

  • Small shed builds

  • Built-in furniture or benches

  • Outdoor furniture

  • Accent walls with custom elements

How it works: Contact me with details about your project. I'll schedule a site visit to assess the space, discuss your vision, and provide a detailed written estimate.

Estimates include: Estimated labor hours and total labor cost, materials estimate, project timeline, and any special requirements or considerations.

Custom projects typically take 1–3+ days depending on complexity. A deposit may be required.


Monthly Maintenance Packages

Recurring monthly visits to stay ahead of the small things before they become bigger ones. A good fit for busy families, elderly homeowners, or rental property owners.

The first visit includes a walkthrough so we can put together a maintenance plan based on what your home actually needs. After that I already know the space, so visits are efficient and nothing gets missed.

What's included:

  • Smoke detector checks and battery changes

  • HVAC filter check and replacement

  • Seasonal caulking and weatherproofing

  • Light bulb changes

  • Small spackle touch-ups

  • Door hardware adjustments

  • Walkway power washing

  • Contractor referrals for larger issues

Need a longer monthly block? Just ask.

Pricing:

  • 6-month package: $210/month

  • 12-month package: $200/month (save $130/year)

Includes labor and basic materials such as spackle and common hardware. Additional materials and tax not included.
