Local know-how

Home repairs in South San Francisco

South City has rows of 1940s and '50s homes in Buri Buri and Sunshine Gardens, plus newer homes and condos in Westborough. Fog and wind off the hills mean drafty doors, tired caulk and lots of weatherstripping, along with the usual TV mounting and furniture assembly.

Every visit comes with the same promise: background-checked and bonded, shoe covers on, floors protected, and your home left just as we found it. Can't be home? Leave a lockbox or door code and we'll text you when we arrive and leave.
