    The van Fairbanks can’t stop talking about.

    You have seen us on Airport Way. One photo of our wrapped van became one of the most shared local posts the Interior has ever seen. The name makes people grin. The work is what makes them call.

    “Get the work done. Get your day back.”

    Meet the crew

    Hire with confidence

    No mystery bills. No strangers. No stress.

    The two scariest parts of hiring a handyman, what it will cost and who walks into your home, are the two things we lock down before we start.

    The price is the price

    Quoted from our published price book and approved by you before any work begins. The number never moves.

    Licensed & insured

    Real, vetted, insured professionals. We carry the coverage that protects your home and our crew.

    Professional staff

    Friendly technicians who show up on time, respect your home, and clean up before they leave.

    Done right, period

    We are not finished until you are happy with the work. Quality you can count on, every visit.

    What we fix

    The whole honey-do list, in one visit.

    Leaky faucets to full punch lists. Hundreds of common repairs and installs, each with a set price in our book.

    Plumbing & Drains

    Running toilets, leaky and worn faucets, clogged drains, P-traps and shutoff valves.

    Electrical & Fixtures

    Light fixtures, ceiling fans, switches and dimmers, smoke and CO alarms.

    Drywall & Paint

    Holes, cracks, nail-pops and touch-up patching done clean and flush.

    Doors & Windows

    Sticking doors, hardware, deadbolts, weatherstripping and draft sealing.

    Hanging & Assembly

    TVs, mirrors, shelves, blinds, curtain rods and flat-pack furniture.

    Carpentry & Trim

    Baseboard, casing, fence pickets, cabinet doors and finish repairs.

    Arctic & Winter Prep

    Heat tape, pipe insulation, hose-bib shutdowns and ice-dam mitigation.

    Safety & Access

    Grab bars, handrails, hardwired detectors and aging-in-place installs.

    The serious part

    A fun name. A price you can trust.

    Most handymen run an hourly meter and surprise you at the end. We quote a flat rate from our published price book first, so you decide with the real number in hand.

    • Know the price first. The number you approve is the number you pay.
    • No surprise invoices. No stopwatch, no padded materials, no “it ran long.”
    • Economy or Premium. Pick the material tier that fits your budget.

    Questions

    Good to know before you call.

    Why “Husband for an Hour”?

    Because somebody has to fix the honey-do list, and it does not have to be you. The name is a wink. The work is the real deal: licensed, insured technicians who show up and get it done.

    What does fixed pricing actually mean?

    Every common job has a set flat rate in our price book. We quote that number before we start, so you are never surprised by an hourly meter or an open-ended time-and-materials invoice.

    Is there a fee for the estimate?

    A standard onsite diagnosis is $200, and it is discounted when you have more than one price-book service done on the same visit. Many quotes can also be given remotely from a few photos at no charge.

    What is the difference between Economy and Premium?

    Same skilled labor either way. Economy uses solid standard-grade materials; Premium uses higher-end parts and finishes. You choose the tier that fits your budget.

    Where do you work?

    Across the Fairbanks North Star Borough: Fairbanks, North Pole, Fox, Ester, Two Rivers, Salcha, Eielson AFB, Fort Wainwright and the surrounding communities.

    Are you licensed and insured?

    Yes. We are licensed, bonded and insured, and we provide a W-9, EIN and Certificate of Insurance on request.

    Do you speak my language?

    Our site translates into more than 80 languages. Use the globe menu at the top of the page to read everything in the language you are most comfortable with.
