Handyman in
Waller, Texas
Out 1488 and down 362, twenty two road miles. Past the line, so the $45 travel charge applies. This is the far edge of what I cover. One small job out here probably isn't worth the money to you. Save it into a list and the trip earns its keep. County seat feel, and a lot of houses that have been in the same family a long while.
Past the 20 mile line, so +$45. About 35 minutes.
The housing out here
Older homes in and around the town center, some of them pre war with real wood windows and doors, alongside acreage properties and newer builds pushing out from the 290 side. The older stock needs patient work rather than fast work.
Worth knowing
Older Waller homes often have solid wood doors worth saving rather than replacing. Planing, rehanging and new hardware costs an hour and keeps a door that's better than anything sold today.
Waller is 21.7 road miles from Magnolia, past the 20 mile line, so a $45 travel charge is added to the job.
