Fix Brothers is a licensed and insured general contractor serving Van Nuys, about 15 minutes from our shop. Van Nuys is one of our core remodeling areas: apartment and condo renovations for landlords, kitchen and bathroom rebuilds in mid-century homes, garage conversions and ADUs.
Van Nuys is one of our core service areas. Our shop is a short drive away on Prairie St in Chatsworth, so this is a neighborhood we know street by street, from the older single-family blocks near Van Nuys Boulevard to the dense apartment corridors around the Orange Line and the civic center. Being close by means we can often be at a Van Nuys address within the hour with the parts and tools the job needs.
Need something smaller? Our in-house handyman crew handles repairs, installs and punch-list work in Van Nuys too, with the same fixed written pricing and the same two brothers running the job.
Van Nuys has one of the largest concentrations of multi-unit rental housing in the Valley, so we do a great deal of turnover work, code-compliance repairs, and ongoing maintenance for landlords and building managers here. The single-family homes are largely mid-century, which means aging plumbing, original panels, and wall heaters that owners want swapped for modern HVAC. Because it is a working, high-traffic area, we also handle a lot of security and access work such as door reinforcement, gate repair, and lighting.
Permits here go through LADBS (City of Los Angeles). We pull them under our own contractor license, schedule inspections and handle Title 24 energy paperwork so you never deal with the counter yourself.
LADBS handles remodel permits in Van Nuys, which is part of the City of Los Angeles, and the department's Valley office is in the Van Nuys civic center. Single-family remodels follow standard plan check. Owners of older wood-frame apartment buildings with tuck-under parking should check whether the building falls under the City's mandatory soft-story retrofit program, and major work in rent-stabilized units can bring extra tenant requirements.
Yes. Our in-house crew handles tenant repairs, electrical outlet and panel work, plumbing fixes, drywall, painting, door and gate repair and security lighting in Van Nuys, and it's the same crew that runs our remodels. Every job starts with a fixed written estimate, and landlords and building managers can set up ongoing maintenance.
Yes. Mid-century Van Nuys bathrooms are usually compact, with original tile, galvanized supply lines and limited ventilation. We replace the plumbing while the walls are open, add proper waterproofing and an exhaust fan, and reconfigure the layout for more storage or a walk-in shower where space allows. See bathroom remodeling, and our Van Nuys bathroom remodel shows a finished example.
Free, fixed and written. We visit, check the plumbing and electrical your project touches, and send a scope with materials and schedule. Fix Brothers is licensed and insured, we pull permits under our own license, and we handle LADBS inspections. For multi-unit owners we can price per unit so turnover work stays predictable.
