What We Do

All the small things
that aren't really small.

The jobs too small for a contractor and too annoying to do yourself. We knock through them in a single visit — most lists are done in half a day.

— 01

Furniture Assembly

IKEA, Wayfair, Pottery Barn, West Elm, Amazon Basics. Beds, bookshelves, dressers, dining tables, office chairs. We assemble it correctly the first time — every cam lock tightened, every screw seated.

Drywall Patching & Repair

Nail holes, dings, fist-sized dents, doorknob impact craters. We patch, mud, sand, prime, and paint so the repair disappears. No "spot you can spot" once we're done.

— 03

Picture & Shelf Hanging

Single frames, gallery walls, heavy mirrors, floating shelves. We use the right anchor for the weight, level it perfectly, and space gallery walls so they actually look like a designer placed them.

— 04

Curtain Rods & Window Treatments

Curtain rods, blinds, roller shades, café rod sets. Anchored properly so heavy curtains don't pull them out of the wall. Centered to the window, level, and adjusted to slide smoothly.

— 05

Door Hardware Swap

Doorknobs, handle sets, deadbolts, hinges. Tired of brass? Going to matte black? We swap every piece in the house in an afternoon — keyed alike if you'd like.

Book This
— 06

Caulking & Weather Stripping

Bathroom re-caulks, kitchen tile sealing, exterior door weather strips, garage door seals. Clean removal of old material, fresh bead applied with a tip — none of that lumpy finger-smear job.

Book This
— 07

Smoke & CO Detectors

Battery swaps, full unit replacements, hard-wired retrofits. Code requires one in every bedroom, hallway, and per floor. We make sure your house has working coverage everywhere it should.

How We Work

Five steps from
list to all done.

1

You Send the List

Text or email everything you'd like done. Photos help. The longer the list, the more efficient our visit.

2

We Quote

Flat-rate per item or bundled price for the whole list. You see the total before we start.

3

We Show Up

Truck stocked with anchors, screws, drywall mud, brackets, common parts. We rarely need a hardware run.

4

We Knock It Out

One item at a time, top to bottom. Vacuum and dust as we go. Most lists done in half a day.

5

All Done

Walk-through together. Show you what was done. Floors clean. Pay on completion. Six months of peace.

What We Bring

A truck full of
"already-have-it."

We arrive with anchors, screws, brackets, drywall mud, caulk, stripping, batteries, and the right drills. No hourly meter ticking while we run to Home Depot for one widget.

The Magic Word

Honey-do lists,
welcome here.

Most handymen hate small-job lists. Each item is "below their minimum," which is why they say no — or charge so much per item it doesn't make sense. We do the opposite. Bundle 10 small things into one visit, and we save you money over calling 10 separate people. Most full honey-do lists wrap up in 3 to 6 hours, with one flat-rate quote and one invoice.

Got a partner who's been "going to do it this weekend" for the past nine months? Send us the list. Make this weekend the one where it's all just done.

I can't say enough good things about Jesse and El. From start to finish, they were professional and competent and pleasant to complete our list of projects. I'll be hiring them again from other!

Rinelli services were awesome! I am an out of state landlord, so having a handyman that is trustworthy is key to my success. I would recommend Rinelli Services to anyone looking for great customer service, quick responsiveness, and professional care.

Maintenance Questions

Things people ask
about odd jobs.

Is there a minimum charge?
Yes — we have a one-hour service call minimum. That covers travel, setup, and the first item. After that, we price per task or by total time, whichever works out better for you. For lists of 5+ items, we usually quote a flat all-in price up front.
How long does IKEA furniture assembly take?
Depends on the piece. A small bookshelf: 30 minutes. A queen platform bed (HEMNES, MALM): 1–1.5 hours. A PAX wardrobe: 2–4 hours per unit, more for stacked configurations. SEKTION kitchen cabinets are a bigger project — see our carpentry page. We give realistic time estimates up front.
Will the drywall patch be invisible?
For nail holes and small dings — yes, completely invisible after primer and paint. For larger patches (2"+ holes, fist dents) — invisible to a casual observer, but may catch raking light in extreme conditions. Texture matching (orange peel, knockdown) takes practice; we get close. If absolute perfection is required, sometimes we recommend painting the whole wall.
Can I send a list before scheduling?
Please do! Text or email us your list with photos when helpful. We'll come back with a flat-rate quote, an estimated time block, and the next available appointment. The more detail upfront, the more accurate the quote.
What about jobs you don't list?
Just ask. Most household tasks fall under maintenance & assembly, even the weird ones. Mounted shelves on a slanted wall? Need to install a baby gate? Pet door in a sliding glass door? Yes, yes, and yes. If we can't do something safely or correctly, we'll tell you and refer someone who can.
Do you stock the parts and hardware?
Most consumable hardware (screws, anchors, batteries, caulk, drywall mud, mesh tape) — yes, we bring it. For brand-specific items (your replacement curtain rod, your specific cabinet pulls), you'll want to have those on hand or buy them in advance. We can also pick them up with your approval at our cost plus a small handling fee.
Will you move heavy furniture?
Within reason — we'll move couches, beds, dressers within a room or to an adjacent room while we work. We don't do moves between floors or houses (different service). For very heavy items, we use furniture sliders to protect floors and our backs.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes. If something we installed loosens, falls, or fails because of how we did the work, we come back and fix it free. If a piece of furniture has a defect from the manufacturer (broken part, missing hardware), that's between you and the brand — we'll let you know what to order, but the warranty isn't ours.
