About us

REPAIRING THINGS is the main focus of my business. I have been repairing things since early on, when in my father's business we often had to find quick solutions to broken and non-functioning things, especially when no repair help was close by. That's where I learned the basics of the many practical skills that allow me today to "quick-fix" a multitude of things. The "quick" stands for the fact that I work fast, yet never inaccurately or sloppy. I often come up with solutions where others don't, and I take special pride in doing nice, clean jobs. I also ALWAYS clean up after my job is finished (which is not necessarily very common...). I'm a friendly and respectful person and get very well along with people. Obviously, I have lots of excellent references to prove it. Home owners frequently leave me with a key to their house, so I can do work in their absence. Typically, I come by and take a look at the job(s) you have and then discuss the details with you and will then give you a general price idea. But normally I work strictly BY THE HOUR, and ONLY if a job picture is clear and definite enough, I may give you a firm price. (Please understand that in the home repair business there can be all kinds of unforeseen issues that often make it difficult to determine an exact price). I usually work all by myself, but in certain situations I may bring one or two other persons which are compatible with me - and your environment - in every respect. To cover my trip time, I charge $30 extra for my first work hour within a 12 mile radius from my home base. If my commute exceeds 12 miles, the trip charge will increase on a pro-rated scale. Please TEXT ME, or give me a call under 214-734-6293 or email me at quickfixjay@yahoo.com to discuss your home repair needs. I'm looking forward to meeting with you!

It went brilliantly! Jay is very busy and was still able to fit us into his schedule as we were in a time crunch (totally my fault!) to list and sell our home. Jay handled every single detail of the projects - which I appreciated. Being busy myself, it was wonderful to not have to micromanage these projects. Jay communicates well and I never had any questions since he was so thorough. The work was completed quickly and very cleanly. I should have called Jay sooner! From here on out, Jay will be my one-stop call for a handy man. There really is no need to call anyone else. Thanks, Jay!
Description of Work: Jay installed a glass bathroom shelf and removed the old fixtures/repaired the wainscoting where the old fixture had been located. Jay also removed, repaired, and repainted a section of wood siding that had rotted.

Jay has worked for me before, and once again was prompt, knowledgeable, and efficient. I call on him twice a year to switch my attic windows from glass to screen (or the reverse), and accumulate a handful of diverse other projects for each visit. Because of the quality of his work I'm likely to hire him when larger projects come along.
Description of Work: Textured and painted a section of ceiling in two rooms; interior and exterior carpentry (adjusted cabinet door handles, replaced breaker box door, repaired crawl space access door); made accessible windows that had been painted shut; switched screens for glass on two attic windows.

He had to remove rotten wooden supporting posts. He also cleaned up a board that was partially decayed. He then replaced the supporting posts with new wood supports and then replaced the old siding with new cedar siding. He was here about six hours and worked constantly. We were very pleased.

This was a great experience! Jay is one of the few Handymen we found with licensing, and he was very responsive in addressing our very small job. My parents have needed grab bars in the bathroom for some time, but it is difficult to find people willing to put them up. Jay worked the job into his schedule quickly and got this safety issue resolved for us. He worked really quickly and with the spare time he resolved a problem with the light in the kitchen that has also been plaguing them for quite a while. Awesome guy!

This is my second experience with this provider. On the first visit he extended some wall shelving and mounted a ceiling medallion. I did not find him on Angie's list, but he was recommended highly by the neighborhood locksmiths who had worked with him on projects previously. We are doing an extensive renovation on an old house, and are quite particular. We have been extremely pleased with Jay's work so far. These have included work on electrical, carpentry, and masonry installation. He is very thoughtful about how he approaches a project--open to suggestions and has great ideas of his own about how to better do the job. He is creative with the projects--he is not stumped by a difficult project or situation, but studies it and executes it with thought. He is detail oriented--looking at things on his own and making sure they are lined up correctly and are in the right place. He is a pleasant person to work with and we look forward to doing more projects with him. We would not hesitate to recommend him.
Description of Work: Built decorative shelf add-on to wooden mantle; removed 2 ceiling lights/fan and reconnected after adding ceiling medallions; mounted four panel screen on brick wall; repaired electrical connection in cabinet and made wiring neat.

Jay was very friendly and helpful. He came up with a brilliant solution to our warped front door. welded and fabricated the contraption himself! also has checked back in on the progress several times. He was expedient and clean and even replaced our dead bolt screws so our door is a little more secure now. We will definitely call him next time my amateur diy fix-its can't rise to the occasion.

We called a few repairmen for quotes. Two other contractors gave us quotes about 2x as expensive as Jay's with less promised. Jay was very polite; he came out a bit further than his listed service area; he was prompt; he finished the work quickly; and his work was excellent. Great experience, would recommend.

Jay returned my call promptly and visited my home to compile a list of services and supplies needed for the repair projects in my home. He scheduled to return the following week and explained that as weather and list of clients permits, he would come by to complete certain projects. He fills every day with work and may work with multiple clients in a day. The work he completed for us is very good quality. He replaced six year old slate tiles with brand new, and the new tiles blend perfectly. He put a latch on a custom pocket door for which we could not find the exact replacement. He was able to fit a new, inexact latch on the door. The latch is secure and works well. He regrouted the edges of our bathrooms and matched the unusual color. He repaired our fence to working condition again. He provided great advice and told me how to complete projects in a more effective, but less expensive way. I would highly recommend Jay. He is a great handy man and will help with all the small projects that do not require a contractor. He's on my speed dial!
Description of Work: A little bit of everything. Replaced broken slate tiles on a back yard breezeway, fixed pieces of broken fence, replaced broken outdoor ceiling fans, fixed broken pocket door latch, placed decorative molding to mask under stair lighting, replaced broken lights, regrouted bathrooms, etc.

Jay responding quickly and did excellent work from the initial contact to the completion of work. We had an interior wall slab leak and as a result wall studs and drywall was removed. Jay completed the repairs with a high degree of quality and timeliness. On a personal note, he was very friendly and we found it a pleasure to work with him (my 4 year old really enjoyed watching the repair and he answered her questions like a champ!). We were super pleased and I highly recommend Jay!

Jay must have found a unexpected time slot available, because he called me several days before he had led me to expect and asked if he could come look at and possibly do the job. I had thought probably one or two boards had pulled away and needed replacing. Once Jay had climbed up near the windows, he determined that the boards did not need replacing, but that there were a large number of spaces that needed calking. I had the matching paint, so he was able to paint over the calking. I am very pleased to have this thoroughly repaired and also delighted to have someone willing to do such a small job. Jay is great to deal with.
Description of Work: Calked wooden outside siding boards around and above second story windows to stop water entry, then painted the calked areas.

It went great, as it usually does with Jay! I thought my bathroom sink faucet needed replacing because it was old and leaking water, so Jay came out to replace it. He told me I just needed to use a little more muscle to completely turn it off. That was so refreshingly honest of someone to say "nothing's wrong!" Since he was already there and I had been making a to-do list for him, I told him the clothes dryer was having to go through several cycles to dry my clothes. He took the unit apart (and cleaned out all the dog hair...I had no idea!), took the 1980 heating element to a parts store where he and the store owner made a quick repair to the element (buying a new one wasn't necessary!), then tested the electrical outlet to see if that was a problem. I haven't used the dryer yet, but I know if I still have a problem it's now up to Whirlpool as Jay was very thorough and checked everything he could. Then he hung an antique cabinet on the wall above a chest. It looks great! Lastly, for years I have had a step ladder that was very difficult to fold up. I just thought it was meant to stay that way, but Jay showed me how to, once again, use a little muscle, and close it up! I can't recommend Jay enough. He is so pleasant to work with and has a nice sense of humor. I originally contacted him a couple of weeks ago but he was very busy at the time, so I just kept in touch with him until he had some time. He'll always be my first choice!
