Ken Independent Home Solutions is a handyman and home improvement business run by Kendrick Drysdale out of Rialto, and Fontana is a short hop up Riverside Avenue. If your kitchen faucet has been dripping into the cabinet, a bedroom floor needs new hardwood, or a bathroom is due for a full remodel, that's the kind of work we take on in Fontana homes.
Nothing gets started until you know the number. We give free quotes with transparent pricing and no obligationso you can compare, think it over, and call back next week if that's what you need.
Nine trades, one crew in Fontana
Most Fontana jobs we get called out for touch more than one trade. Pulling a tub out of a 1970s hall bathroom means plumbing, then tile, then paint. Instead of lining up three separate contractors and hoping their schedules match, you get one crew that handles all of it:
- Plumbing — faucets, traps, shut-off valves, tub and shower fixtures, leaks under sinks
- Bathroom remodeling — tub-to-shower conversions, vanities, new tile surrounds, fixtures
- Tiling — floors, showers, backsplashes, grout and thresholds
- Hardwood flooring — installation, boards replaced, transitions and baseboards
- Flooring — laminate, vinyl plank and tile through kitchens, halls and bedrooms
- Roofing — repairs and replacement work
- Painting — interior walls and ceilings, exterior trim, stucco patching before paint
- Home renovation — larger projects that pull several trades together
- Handyman services — doors that won't latch, drywall holes, fixtures, shelves, small fixes
Stucco tract homes, slab floors and hard water
A lot of Fontana is single-story stucco tract housing on a concrete slab, and that shapes the work. Slab floors mean tile and plank installs need the concrete checked and prepped rather than a plywood subfloor stapled down. Hall bathrooms in these houses tend to share one wet wall, so a leak behind the tub often shows up as a soft spot in the hallway carpet before you ever see water in the bathroom. Inland Empire water is hard, too — mineral buildup wrecks shower valves and faucet cartridges years before the rest of the fixture is worn out, and that's a repair rather than a remodel.
When a Fontana homeowner calls about a stain on the ceiling, we look at the roof and the plumbing above it before quoting anything, because guessing wrong on that one costs you twice.
What Fontana customers have said
"Kendrick replaced the tile in our hall bathroom and reset the toilet the same visit. He walked me through the price before he started and the final invoice matched the quote." — Fontana homeowner, bathroom tile and plumbing
"We had hardwood put in through the living room and hallway. Clean cuts around the fireplace and the baseboards went back on like they'd never moved." — Fontana homeowner, hardwood flooring install
"Interior repaint of three bedrooms plus patching where a shelf had pulled out of the drywall. You can't find the patch now." — Fontana homeowner, painting and drywall repair
Fontana and the rest of the service area
Fontana is one stop on a fairly tight service map. We also work in Rialto, San Bernardino, Bloomington, Grand Terrace, Colton, Loma Linda, Riverside and Jurupa Valley, which keeps travel short and makes it easier to come back and check a repair if something needs a second look.
If you've got a project in mind — a bathroom you've been putting off, a roof leak, flooring through the whole house, or a list of small repairs that's been growing on the fridge — tell us what's going on and we'll price it out for you in writing.
