Handyman, plumbing, tile, flooring, roofing and painting in Loma Linda, CA. Free written estimates from Ken Independent Home Solutions — (909) 419-3158.

Ken Independent Home Solutions works in Loma Linda on the everyday repairs that pile up in a house — a shower valve that drips behind the wall, a bathroom floor that needs the old sheet vinyl pulled up and tile set in its place, a hallway of hardwood that has gone dull and loose at the seams. Kendrick Drysdale runs the business and does the work, so the person who looks at the job is the person who finishes it.

Nine trades, one crew

Most homeowners in Loma Linda call about one thing and end up talking about three. A leak under a vanity turns into new tile and a repaint of the wall behind it. Because the same crew handles plumbing, tiling, flooring, roofing and painting, you are not waiting on three separate trades to line up their calendars. Here is the full list of what Ken Independent Home Solutions takes on:

  • Plumbing — leaks, fixture swaps, drain and supply line repairs
  • Bathroom remodeling — tubs, showers, vanities, tile surrounds
  • Tiling — floors, backsplashes, shower walls and pans
  • Hardwood flooring — installation, repair and board replacement
  • Flooring — laminate, vinyl plank, tile and carpet transitions
  • Roofing — repairs and replacement work
  • Painting — interior and exterior
  • Home renovation — kitchens, baths and whole-room projects
  • Handyman services — doors, drywall, trim, fixtures and the small list you never get to

Stucco ranch homes and the repairs they ask for

A lot of Loma Linda is single-story stucco ranch houses built for young families and hospital staff, and they tend to bring the same set of problems. Original cast iron or galvanized drain lines that have narrowed and slowed. Bathrooms still carrying 1960s wall tile with grout that has given up and let water into the substrate — which is why a shower tile job often turns into replacing the backer board underneath before anything new goes on the wall. Low-slope patio roofs over the back of the house that pond water and need flashing sorted out rather than another coat of patch compound.

That kind of work gets quoted honestly. If a bathroom needs the wall opened up, we say so before the tile is ordered, not halfway through the week.

How a Loma Linda project actually runs

You describe the job, we come look at it, and you get a written quote with the price broken out — materials, labor, and anything we think might turn up once a wall or a floor comes open. Estimates are free and carry no obligation; if the number does not work for you, that is the end of it and nothing is owed.

On the job itself, floors get covered before tools come in, cut work happens outside where it can, and the site is swept and cleared at the end of each stretch of work. Tile gets time to set before grout goes down. Paint gets a proper cut line, not a taped-and-hoped edge. If something takes longer than the estimate said, you hear about it while it is happening rather than in the final invoice.

What customers have said

Kendrick replaced the leaking shower valve in our hall bathroom, then retiled the surround where the water had gotten behind the old tile. Clean work and the price was the price. — Loma Linda homeowner

We had him refinish and repair the hardwood in the living room where a few boards had lifted. He matched them so well I have to look for the spot. — Loma Linda customer

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge for an estimate in Loma Linda?

No. Estimates are free and there is no obligation to book the work. You get the price in writing, broken into materials and labor, and you decide from there.

Can you handle a bathroom remodel from start to finish?

Yes. The plumbing, the tile, the flooring and the painting are all done by the same crew, so you are not coordinating separate trades or waiting for one to finish before the next is scheduled.

What happens if you find damage once the wall or floor is open?

You hear about it straight away, with a revised price before any extra work goes ahead. Rotted backer board behind old shower tile is the most common surprise in older Loma Linda bathrooms.

Do you do small jobs, or only full projects?

Both. A single sticking door, a run of trim or a fixture swap is fine — plenty of customers start with a short handyman list and call back later for the bigger work.

Do you work outside Loma Linda?

Yes. The service area also covers Rialto, San Bernardino, Bloomington, Fontana, Grand Terrace, Colton, Riverside and Jurupa Valley.

Can you repair a roof rather than replace it?

Often, yes. Flashing and localized leak repairs are common on the low-slope patio roofs found on many local ranch houses. If the deck underneath has gone, we will tell you that instead of patching over it.
