Pressure Washing and Cleaning Your Home
Pressure Washing and Cleaning For Your Home
It's winter, and while we have not had much rain we do have a lot of dust.
And the dirt and debris builds up on our homes, driveways, patios, and outdoor areas.
Which can be unpleasant to look at, but also unsafe.
A clean home is a safe home, and the more attention you pay to your home the better it will be for you and the longer it will last.
Many times when we are pressure washing a home we find exterior leaks, dryrot, or missing shingles.
The best way to protect your home is to clean and inspect it regularly.
We currently have a 10% discount on all pressure washing services.
Do-It-Yourself Paint Tip
As a long, long-time resident in El Segundo and working there as well, I'm frequently asked by local homeowners "what's the best exterior wood paint to use on my deck or fence?"
To be sure, I've tested most all the brands. Bar none...the very best is Sherwin Williams, Emerald Rain Refresh.
It's actually fairly new on the market. Nonetheless, in my opinion, it's the best, with deep saturation and smooth coverage. You might have guessed, yep, it's fairly expensive at around $80 a gallon.
By comparison, if you acquire a cheaper brand, you may be redoing the job inside of 5 years. With Rain Refresh, you may get 20+ years without touching it.
You can apply Rain Refresh to bare Douglas Fir, Redwood, Cedar and the like. I would NOT recommend Rain Refresh for any Tropical hardwood.
If your wood has an existing paint color applied, I recommend sanding most or all the paint off to assure a good bond. If you want to preview an application, where I've applied it, email me.

Screens Are A Huge Plus To Keep Unwanted Pesky Bugs Out Of Your Home
But screens only work if they don't have holes in them. And you have a screen on every door and window of your home.
The reality is there is usually a hard to reach non standard sized window that is missing a screen.
So critters can crawl into your home at the most in opportune times.
No one things of functional screens until it is the middle of a sweltering night and it's too hot to have all the windows shut.
Worse, most big box hardware stores don't have the screens you need, and can't help make custom beautiful screens that fit the look of your home.
Building custom screens is not something that most companies can do, but we have the specialized tools and equipment to fabricate them. And we can make them on site at your home, so you don't have to wait and we get the fit just right.
Imagine having same day brand new screens on all your windows and doors, and never having to worry about unwanted pests in your home again.
Not much feels better than a home with no nagging problems and you are happy to invite your friends over for a social gathering.

Essential Steps Homeowners Should Take to Prepare for an Earthquake
It's not fun to think about, but we do live in earthquake country.
That's not to scare you, but to impress upon you the importance of keeping your home secured.
This can put you ahead of the next one John Doe.
10 Essential Steps Homeowners Should Take to Prepare for an Earthquake
Earthquakes can strike without warning, but there are steps you can take to minimize damage and protect your loved ones:
1. Secure Heavy Furniture to Walls
Bookshelves, cabinets, and large dressers can topple during an earthquake. Use L-brackets or earthquake straps to anchor heavy furniture to wall studs, preventing them from tipping over.
2. Install Safety Latches on Cabinets
Keep fragile items and chemicals secure by installing safety latches on kitchen and bathroom cabinets. These latches will help keep doors closed and prevent items from falling out during shaking.
3. Reinforce Your Foundation and Structure
Hire a professional to inspect your home’s foundation and framing. Reinforcing weak spots, such as adding anchor bolts to secure the structure to the foundation, can significantly reduce the risk of severe damage during a strong earthquake.
4. Secure Water Heater and Appliances
Water heaters can tip over in an earthquake, leading to flooding and fires. Use metal straps to anchor your water heater to the wall and install flexible gas lines to reduce the risk of gas leaks.
5. Brace Cripple Walls
If your home has cripple walls (short walls that create crawl spaces), brace them with plywood. Properly bracing these walls strengthens your home’s foundation, making it more resistant to shaking.
6. Install Automatic Gas Shut-Off Valves
Earthquakes can rupture gas lines and cause fires. Install automatic shut-off valves on your gas line, which will stop the flow of gas when seismic activity is detected, reducing the risk of explosions.
7. Secure Hanging Light Fixtures and Ceiling Fans
Make sure that ceiling fans, chandeliers, and heavy light fixtures are properly installed with bracing or safety cables to prevent them from falling.
8. Install Shatterproof Film on Windows
Windows are vulnerable during earthquakes and can shatter, causing injuries. Apply shatterproof film to your windows to prevent glass from breaking and flying into your home during shaking.
9. Store Emergency Supplie
Keep a well-stocked emergency kit that includes water, non-perishable food, flashlights, a first-aid kit, and extra batteries. Place this kit in an easily accessible location, so you can grab it quickly after an earthquake.
10. Create a Family Emergency Plan
Develop an earthquake safety plan for your household. Identify safe spots in each room, such as under sturdy tables, and practice drop, cover, and hold drills. Make sure everyone knows how to turn off utilities, where to meet after an earthquake, and who to contact if separated.
By taking these preventative steps, you can help reduce earthquake damage to your Southern California home and ensure the safety of your family.
Securing your home against seismic activity doesn’t just give peace of mind—it can be lifesaving when an earthquake strikes.

Prepare Your Home for Rainy Days: Essential Tips to Prevent Water Damage
John Doe There is nothing like relaxing in your home on a cold and rainy night in our California winter...
Unless raindrops are falling on your head - in your living room!
We don't get much rain, but that can leave us complacent.
Because when the rains come it can expose your home with cracks, leaks and seams that you never knew existed.
There is nothing worse than coming into your home after a long wet work commute and finding a puddle on your carpet.
Preparing your home against rain is essential to prevent water damage and maintain the structural integrity of your property.
Here are some tips to help you get ready:
Clean gutters and downspouts: Clear leaves, debris, and any blockages from gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage. This prevents water from overflowing and damaging your roof, walls, and foundation.
Inspect and repair roof: Check your roof for missing, damaged, or loose shingles. Replace or repair them to prevent water leaks during heavy rain.
Seal windows and doors: Inspect the seals around windows and doors. Replace worn weather-stripping and caulking to prevent water from seeping into your home.
Check exterior walls: Look for cracks or gaps in the exterior walls of your home. Seal any openings with caulk or replace damaged siding to prevent water intrusion.
Inspect foundation: Examine your foundation for cracks or areas where water could seep in. Seal any cracks with epoxy or waterproofing sealant.
Install or maintain drainage systems: Ensure that your yard has proper grading away from the foundation of your home. Install or maintain a French drain or other drainage systems if necessary to redirect water flow.
Trim trees and landscaping: Trim overhanging branches and remove dead or unstable trees that could potentially fall and damage your home during heavy rain or windstorms.
Check sump pump: If you have a sump pump, ensure it is in good working condition by testing it regularly. Consider installing a battery backup system to ensure it functions during power outages.
Inspect basement and crawl spaces: Check for signs of moisture or water damage in basements and crawl spaces. Seal any cracks in the walls or floors and ensure adequate ventilation to prevent mold growth.
Protect valuable items: Store valuable items and important documents in waterproof containers or move them to higher ground in case of flooding.
Consider flood insurance: Depending on your location and flood risk, consider purchasing flood insurance to protect your home and belongings against water damage caused by heavy rain or storms.
I have dealt with rain for decades. The best thing you can do is PREPARE EARLY for this seasons rain.
It sneaks up on us faster then we realize, and once it hits we are booked solid doing emergency repairs.
Take these steps today to prepare your home against rain can help minimize potential damage and ensure your property remains safe and dry during inclement weather.

No Installing Window AC Units In Homes
It is getting hot in Los Angeles.
This summer is forecast to have potentially record breaking heat.
So this means your house could get hot... unbearable in the daytime and difficult to sleep at nighttime.
Because when the heat is trapped in our dense city, it stays for days.
Which is something no one wants to experience.
But thankfully there is a solution... and a very simple and cost effective one at that.
Normally air conditioning is expensive, bulky and complex.
However we have portable AC units that are installed in your window, which is cheap, easy and simple.
No messy holes in your walls, no long install times, and no downtime.
You can have ice cold air conditioning in as little as one day!
The catch is you need to act now, because these install slots will fill up fast, and your neighbors will be getting this done.
We offer a free consultation to install a window AC unit in your house.

- Develop and practice a fire escape plan with your family, including a designated meeting point outside the home.
- Ensure all electrical outlets, cords, and appliances are in good condition and used properly to prevent electrical fires.
- Never leave cooking food unattended, and keep flammable objects away from stovetops and other heat sources.
- Secure all windows and doors with proper locks to prevent unauthorized entry.
- Keep pathways and staircases clear of clutter to prevent tripping hazards.
- Install handrails on staircases, both indoors and outdoors, to assist with balance and prevent falls.
- Use non-slip mats in the bathroom and install grab bars near the shower and toilet to prevent slips and falls.
- Regularly inspect and maintain your heating and cooling systems to prevent malfunctions and potential hazards.

Bringing Walls to Life: The Handyman's Guide to Fixing and Painting Drywall
I want to bring your attention to your walls.They're not just the things that keep the roof up; they're the canvas of our homes. I will teach you about repairing and painting drywall, and why it's super important for keeping our homes happy and our rooms full of life.
Why Do Walls Matter So Much?
Imagine your room without walls. Pretty breezy, huh? Walls give us privacy, comfort, and, most importantly, a place to hang our favorite posters. But they also get scuffed, dinged, and sometimes damaged. Keeping them in top shape is like making sure your favorite outfit is clean and mended—it makes you feel good!
Quickly and Easily Repairing Drywall
Repairing drywall is like being a doctor for your house. When walls get holes or cracks, it's not just about looks; it's about keeping your home strong and healthy. Here's how we do it:
1. Diagnosis: I take a look at the wall to see what's wrong. Small holes? Big cracks? Each one needs a different kind of care.
2. Preparation: Just like cleaning a scrape before putting on a bandage, I clean the area around the damage. This helps the repair stick better.
3. Treatment: For small holes, a bit of spackle (a special wall paste) does the trick. For bigger issues, I might use a patch kit. It's like a band-aid for your wall!
4. Recovery: After the patch or spackle dries, I sand it down until it's smooth. Your wall is now back in tip-top shape!
The Makeover - Painting Drywall
Once the walls are healed, it's time for a makeover with some paint! Painting is like giving your room a new personality.
Here's the wall painting process:
1. Choosing the Color: This is where you get to be creative. The color of your walls can change the whole vibe of your room. Bright colors make it lively and fun, while soft colors can make it calm and cozy.
2. Prepping the Room: I cover the floors and furniture and tape off the edges to keep the paint where it belongs—on the walls!
3. Priming: This is like a base coat for your nails. It makes sure the paint sticks well and looks great.
4. Painting: With a steady hand and a keen eye, I apply the paint in smooth, even strokes. It might take a couple of coats, but patience is key!
Why Painstaking Patching and Painting Matters
Fixing and painting drywall does more than just make your walls look pretty. It keeps your home feeling fresh and vibrant. Just like we take care of our clothes, toys, and ourselves, taking care of our walls is a way of showing love for our home. It makes every room feel like a new adventure, full of life and possibility.
And there you have it, the journey from fixing to painting drywall, wrapped up in a bow of care and creativity. Remember, every stroke of paint and every patch applied is a stroke of love for your home. So next time you see a scuff or a ding, know that it's just another opportunity to bring a little more life and color into your world.
Keep dreaming big and coloring outside the lines, both in life and on your walls!
I hope this guide inspires you to look at your walls as more than just barriers between rooms—they're the frame to the most important moments in your home.
Keep your walls strong, keep them painted bright, and they'll keep your home feeling just right.
A Handyman's Guide to Making Your Home Shine: A Step-by-Step Journey
My name is Scott, and I'm a handyman with a love for turning houses into homes.
This is the heartwarming journey of how I bring joy and comfort to families by fixing and improving their homes. You can discover the magic behind the scenes of getting home repairs done (the secret is having irrational passion for your work)
Meeting the Family and Understanding Their Dreams
Every job starts with a dream. When a family calls me, they're not just looking for repairs; they're hoping to create a space that feels like a warm hug every time they walk in. Our first meeting is filled with hope and excitement.
I listen to their wishes, whether it's fixing a creaky door, painting their walls with sunshine, or transforming their backyard into a playground for endless adventures. It's all about understanding what makes their hearts sing.
Planning with Passion
Once I know what the family dreams of, it's time to put those dreams on paper. Planning is like drawing a treasure map; it guides me through the journey ahead.
I carefully select the tools and materials, making sure everything I use will make their home stronger and brighter. This step is filled with anticipation, as I imagine the smiles and laughter that will fill the rooms once I'm done.
The Adventure of Fixing and Building
Now, the real fun begins! With my toolbox in hand and a song in my heart, I start the work. Every nail I hammer and every brush stroke I make is done with love and care. It's not just about fixing things; it's about weaving happiness into the walls of the home.
The sound of my tools is the melody of progress, bringing us closer to the dream with every moment.
Overcoming Challenges with Courage
No adventure is without its dragons. Sometimes, unexpected challenges pop up, like a hidden leak or an old floor that creaks with secrets. But fear not! These challenges are just opportunities for me to show my bravery and creativity. With a bit of ingenuity and a lot of determination, I find solutions that not only fix the problem but also add extra charm to the home.
The Grand Reveal: A Home Reborn
The most magical moment of all is when the work is done, and I get to show the family their transformed home. The look of joy and wonder in their eyes is my greatest reward. Together, we walk through each room, discovering the new stories waiting to be written within these walls.
Their home, now infused with love and care, is ready to be the backdrop of their lives' most precious moments.
The Heart of a Handyman
Being a handyman is about much more than repairs and renovations; it's about touching lives and building dreams. Every job is a journey filled with emotions, challenges, and triumphs. And at the end of the day, knowing I've made a home a little warmer, a little brighter, and a lot happier is what keeps me going.
Always remember this: whether you're fixing a leaky faucet or painting a masterpiece on your bedroom wall, you're not just working with tools; you're crafting emotions and building dreams. And that's the true heart of a handyman.
I hope this story inspires you to look at your home with new eyes and see the endless possibilities for making it a reflection of your heart's deepest desires.
Remember, every home has a story, and every repair is a chapter in that story.
Let's make those chapters magical, one fix at a time!

ACE Handyman Services Sponsoring the Los Angeles Super Bowl 10K Race
I am proud to sponsor the super bowl run in Los Angeles. It was an amazing event with our team and Ace Handyman was there to sponsor our local runners.
These were our group of hearty runners.
This Super Bowl Run was a highlight of our month and we love sponsoring events in our Los Angeles community.
The Super Bowl run is a tradition that we love to sponsor, and each year the running team gets bigger.
The event is about showing up, pushing through, and crossing that finish line, no matter what. It's like when we're working on a home repair – it doesn't matter if you're the new guy or the seasoned vet, what counts is getting the work done, together.
You've got the first-timers, probably a bit nervous, not sure what to expect, but they're out there giving it their all. Then there are the regulars, the ones who've been around the block a few times, running like clockwork, steady and sure.
This race, this gathering of folks from all over, it's about more than just running. It's about building something, like we do. Every step, every bit of effort, it ties us all together, creating a community that's tough, supportive, and full of heart.
To all the runners of the Los Angeles 10K congratulstions! You've shown what it means to keep moving, to face challenges head-on, and to finish what you started. It's that kind of grit and determination that gets the job done, on and off the track.
So here's to you, for lacing up, showing up, and doing the hard work. You've earned every bit of pride and every moment of celebration from this 10K race. Keep on building those roads, one step at a time.
