Fire Hardening & WUI Prep
in Berkeley, CA

NorTech uses pricing set by local pros, so you see the full price before you book, with no hourly surprises. A general handyman visit in Berkeley starts at a price, and every quote is upfront whether you're in Elmwood, the Hills, or near Fourth Street.

Every job is handled by a background-checked and insured independent provider. NorTech keeps work within California's $1,000 handyman exemption, and for larger projects that require a licensed contractor, it goes to bids from NorTech-verified licensed contractors so the job is done right.

Yes. Because the Berkeley Hills fall in a WUI fire zone, ember-prep is a major fall priority, and vetted local providers can install ember-resistant vent screening, clear defensible space, and seal gaps to help harden your home before fire season.

Every independent provider on the platform is vetted and background-checked before they're allowed to take a job. Permit rules vary by project, and NorTech confirms scope before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Your pro does. Every job in Berkeley carries the pro's workmanship warranty, never shorter than the published minimum (at least 30 days, and at least 90 on tile, flooring, doors, and windows), and anything covered that isn't right gets corrected by your pro at no charge.
