Handyman Plan

The Handyman Plan is an annual subscription service that includes quarterly scheduled visits from a qualified Cypress Home & Carpentry team member who will conduct a variety of inspections, cleanings, and repairs based on the schedules below and provide a summary of all findings to the home owner. This plan also includes free project estimates while we're on site. If you ever choose to cancel the subscription, you will still be able to continue the services for 12 months from the date of last payment. If you no longer wish to receive services after cancelation, a prorated refund can be provided.
