A light switch that does nothing. An outlet that stopped working years ago. A faucet that drips all night, a toilet that runs until you jiggle the handle, a slow leak under the kitchen sink you’ve been catching in a bowl. These are the jobs too small for an electrician or plumber to return your call about — and exactly the jobs we built our business on. Call or text (706) 662-2672 and we’ll set a time.
JAPARCO Maintenance & Services is veteran-owned, family-run, and licensed in Georgia (#21331). We’ve been handling handyman electrical and plumbing repairs in Columbus since 2010. Let’s be clear about what that means: we do repairs, replacements, and installs — not full rewires, panel upgrades, or whole-house repiping. If your job needs a specialty contractor, we’ll tell you straight instead of getting in over our heads. Honesty and quality above all.
Handyman Electrical Work
Most electrical calls we get come down to fixtures and connections, and we handle them all:
- Light fixtures — swapping dated fixtures for new ones, replacing dead ballasts and sockets, hanging chandeliers and pendants
- Ceiling fans — new installs on fan-rated boxes, replacing old fans, fixing the wobble and the pull chain that snapped off
- Outlets and switches — replacing dead or loose outlets, upgrading to GFCI in kitchens and baths, swapping worn switches and dimmers
- Small repairs — doorbells, smoke detector replacement, fixtures that flicker or buzz
Columbus has plenty of older homes where the outlets are two-prong, the switches are original, and every fixture is a surprise. We work in those houses all the time and know when a repair is simple and when it’s a sign of something an electrician needs to see.
Handyman Plumbing Repairs
Same story on the water side — the small jobs that make a big difference:
- Faucets — repairing drips, replacing cartridges, installing new kitchen and bathroom faucets
- Toilets — fixing constant running, replacing flappers and fill valves, resetting or replacing the whole toilet
- Garbage disposals — new installs, replacements, and un-jamming the one that just hums
- Leaks and minor repairs — supply lines, P-traps under sinks, shutoff valves, caulking around tubs and sinks
A dripping faucet wastes water every hour it’s ignored, and a slow leak under a sink turns into a cabinet-floor replacement if it sits long enough. Catching it early is the cheap version of this repair.
One Call for the Whole Punch List
Here’s where a handyman beats a specialty contractor: the fan install, the two dead outlets, the running toilet, and the leaky faucet all get done in one visit by one crew. Landlords with rentals near Fort Benning/Fort Moore use us exactly this way — one walk-through, one written estimate, one trip, unit ready.
Call or text (706) 662-2672. A real person answers, we set a time that works — often the same week — and you get a clear written estimate before any work begins. Estimates are free.
