Handyman Services
The punch list that never punches back.

Where we work
Handyman services for Salt Lake County homes
Salty Home Services is a licensed Utah general contractor providing half-day and full-day handyman work for homes and businesses across Salt Lake, Wasatch and Summit counties — doors, drywall, mounting, fixtures and punch lists, finished in one booked visit.
Salt Lake County is home base. Sandy, South Jordan, West Jordan, Riverton, Murray, Holladay, Millcreek, Draper, Salt Lake City — most weeks we are already working a few miles from your street, which is exactly what makes a booked half day of handyman time worth doing instead of another Saturday with a YouTube tab open.
Wasatch and Summit County run on the same schedule with the same crew — Heber, Midway and Park City are a normal week for us, not a special trip. If your address is in any of the three counties, you are in.
Same crew in all three counties
Salt Lake, Wasatch and Summit are all part of the normal week. Three counties, one crew, one standard of finish. The only thing your address changes is which day we are already out your way.

What we take on
If it is nagging you, it is on the list.
There is no such thing as too small — there is only "not worth its own trip." Which is exactly what a booked day of handyman time solves. Here is the sort of thing that fills one.
Realtors, PMs and other GCs: we sell punch-list hours as a bucket. Send the walkthrough report and we work it top to bottom — the repairs, the touch-up and the small stuff that holds up a closing — before the closing date, not after it.
Painting & patch
- Interior paint touch-up, a small room, an accent wall — list work rather than a whole-house repaint
- Drywall patch, nail pops, texture blended in where the wall allows it
- Caulk, grout touch-up, weather stripping
Mounting & assembly
- TVs, shelves, mirrors, curtain rods, hardware
- Furniture and flat-pack assembly
- A doorbell, camera or thermostat swapped onto wiring that is already there
Doors, trim & fixtures
- Doors that stick, drawers that drop, hinges, handles
- Trim, baseboard and the small carpentry fixes nobody wants to book on their own
- Fixture swaps — lights and fans where the box and the circuit already exist. Where they do not, we bring in a vetted licensed electrician and run it as part of the job.
Exterior & seasonal repair
- Fence and gate repair
- Deck board and rail repair
- Seasonal and winterization punch lists, done before the first hard freeze rather than after it
Lists for other people’s deadlines
- Realtor, property-manager and landlord punch lists, booked as a bucket of hours
- Pre-listing and post-close tidy lists
- Light commercial and office punch that fits inside a handyman day
When a specialty trade is involved
Full electrical, plumbing, HVAC and roofing still get done. We manage the project as general contractor and bring in vetted specialty subcontractors rather than improvise without the right license — one point of contact, and we stay on the job until it is finished.
Some of it is simply bigger than a handyman day. Bigger layout, cabinet and tile work is a remodel. Sauna kits and heaters live on the sauna page. Grab bars and bath safety belong with aging in place. Tenant improvement deeper than a punch day runs through commercial.
Packages
Booked by the block, not by the excuse.
You are buying a chunk of a licensed contractor's day. What goes in it is up to you.
Short visit
2-hour minimum, two hours on site
The one or two things that will not wait. The smallest booking we take, and often all a list needs.
Half day
About four hours on site
The list that fits in a morning. Mounting, patching, swaps, the three things you keep meaning to do.
Full day
A full working day on site
The list that has grown a second page. We work top to bottom and leave you a photo log of what got done.
Recurring
Scheduled, standing block
Book a standing block and whatever is on the list that week is what we work. Ask us about a recurring slot.
There is a 2-hour minimum on every visit. Rates are quoted when we scope your list — ask and you get a straight number.

Questions
The ones people actually ask.
What does a day of handyman time cost?
Half-day and full-day rates are quoted when we scope your list, because a day of mounting shelves and a day of drywall repair are not the same day. Ask and we will give you a straight number — no surprise line items later.
Is there a minimum?
There is a 2-hour minimum on handyman visits. Past that we book by the half day or the full day, whichever your list actually needs. If your list is genuinely one small item, tell us anyway — sometimes we can fold it into a visit already scheduled nearby.
What counts as handyman work, and what counts as a remodel?
Rough line: if it fits inside a booked day or two and nobody is moving walls, plumbing or electrical, it is handyman work. Once the layout, the cabinets or the tile change, it is a remodel — scoped, scheduled and billed like one. If you are not sure which side yours falls on, describe it. We quote both, so we have no reason to push you either way.
Do you come out to Heber or Park City for a small job?
Yes. Salt Lake County is where we are most days, but Wasatch and Summit County are a standing part of the schedule with the same crew — a short visit in Heber, Midway or Park City is an ordinary booking, not a favour.
Do you handle the parts run?
Usually yes, and we will say so up front when a run is part of the day. If you have already bought the fixture, even better — have it on site and we will install it.
Do you paint, assemble furniture and mount TVs?
Yes — those are normal items on a handyman day. Send the list and we size it as a short visit, a half day or a full day.
What happens when the work needs a licensed specialty trade?
It still gets done. We manage the project as general contractor and bring in vetted specialty subcontractors for the electrical, plumbing, HVAC or roofing scope. You get one point of contact and we stay on the job — not a phone number and a shrug.

The rest of what we do.
