Handyman checklist with Saul

Outside: fan area

Exact spot is unclear in recording; it's the area with the fans that Nick decided didn't need power washing.

• Install the 3 new fans with their 3 controllers SaulNick will print out a label for the controllers and leave it for you.
• Clean the fans, globes and lights, inside too, then hang them back up Saul
• Take down the old ones today if you can SaulNick is taking them with him. Which fixtures exactly is unclear in recording.
• Fix the fan switch SaulWait until the new fans arrive, since they come with a new controller. The plate is probably fine and just needs a screw. Get another faceplate and a new front for the box (maybe not a whole new box). Ignore the old label on it, since those don't work anyway.
• Replace 2 fans with the 2 Nick has, and lightly clean the other 2 SaulNick: “I've got two fans, so you can replace this fan and this fan.”
• Touch up chipped paint SaulChipping in a few spots, a spot on the back, and some on the front side. “Just take a look and make it look good.”
• No power washing needed under here InfoNick decided it isn't dirty enough, so no wiring work is needed.

Painting & schedule

• Start painting (maybe Monday) SaulSaul said “maybe Monday” when Nick asked about this weekend.
• Book Roxy to clean after the painting (Friday, or Saturday at the latest) NickA guest arrives Sunday to stay a week, so the place has to be ready. It needs to be dry and not smell like paint. Nick: “Let me see if she can do Saturday.”
• Touch up the baseboards and walls Saul
• Do the switch plates for all the lights Saul

Inside: living areas

• Check the dripping/stain in the ceiling area SaulNick asked whether it means water is coming in. Exact spot is unclear in recording.
• Clean up and paint around the switch SaulNick decided not to add a remote/in-wall switch here.
• Label the switch and let everyone know Nick
• Patch the ceiling in this room Saul
• Patch the ceiling crack in the entryway Saul
• Check the baseboards everywhere Saul

TV / media area

• Zip-tie the loose wires behind the TV SaulTie them to the rack or wherever works so nothing shows. Nick has zip ties.
• Put a cover on the hanging box and push the cables back in SaulTry to match the wall color. Only one cable line is used. Drilling in from the inside is fine. “Don't waste too much time on it.”
• Replace a broken piece (what it is is unclear in recording) Owner unclear“Someone broke it, so I need to get a new one.” Either of you can put it on.

Lights & bulbs

• Replace the 2 burnt-out bulbs and check all the lights SaulNick left extra bulbs for you.
• Replace all 3 bulbs above the bar SaulNick has 4 new bulbs arriving today.

All bathrooms

• Check and tighten all hooks and toilet paper holders SaulIn this bathroom the hooks and the toilet paper holder are both loose. (“Toilet roll” holder is partly unclear in recording.) Check all the bathrooms.
• Check every toilet and tighten loose handles SaulOne toilet is new. Saul fixed one and another guy fixed another. One handle needed tightening again.
• Re-caulk where needed (unclear in recording) SaulSomething “needs a lot of” caulk (likely). Near the end there's talk of water and making a hole; details are unclear in recording.

Master bedroom

• Patch the ceiling Saul
• Sync the high remote (needs a tall ladder) SaulIf it needs a new remote, tell Nick, since Nick would buy it. The battery looks good. Spare batteries are in the kitchen drawer. Find out what battery it takes.
• Glue the tile back onto the lid SaulWhich lid is unclear in recording.
• Clean the greasy, sticky spill on the wall by the bed SaulLocation is partly unclear in recording.

Master bath

• Check all master bath baseboards, including the chair niche and the toilet room SaulNick added this afterward; it wasn't in the recording.
