Move-In / Move-Out Repairs

Security deposits in the Bay Area run thousands of dollars — and landlords enforce every scuff, hole, and broken fixture on the punch list. NorTech connects you with vetted local providers who work through move-in and move-out repair packages so units are documented, restored, and ready for inspection. Pricing set by local pros is confirmed before the first item is checked off.

Move-in and move-out repair services across the Bay Area

Whether you are turning over a rental unit in Oakland, prepping a San Jose condo for new tenants, or trying to get your deposit back from a Palo Alto landlord, move-in and move-out repairs come down to speed and accuracy. NorTech connects you with background-checked, vetted local providers who handle the full punch list — scuffed walls, damaged trim, broken hardware, stuck doors, and more — at a price you approve before any work begins. No hourly meter, no surprise invoice, just a unit that passes inspection. From the Peninsula to the East Bay and South Bay, your provider brings the right tools to close out the job in as few visits as possible.

Every punch-list item, one trusted platform

Move-in and move-out damage runs the full spectrum: wall scuffs and small holes from picture hooks, gouged baseboards, broken door handles and cabinet hardware, sticking or misaligned interior doors, damaged window screens, loose towel bars, and minor tile or grout damage. vetted pros on NorTech work with tenants protecting their security deposit, landlords turning over single-family homes and multi-unit properties, property managers coordinating back-to-back vacancies, and short-term-rental hosts resetting a unit between guests. Whatever the punch list looks like, a local provider works through it efficiently so you can hand over the keys — or get them back — on schedule.

Punch-list repairs sized by the unit

Between tenants, a unit needs a quick sweep of the small stuff: nail holes and dings patched, scuffed paint touched up, loose hardware replaced, a sticking door or window adjusted. Your provider works through the list in one visit and photographs each area for the condition record. Unit size, from studio to three bedrooms or more, sets the price, and touch-up painting is an option, so landlords and tenants both know the cost up front.

When to book move-in / move-out repairs

Your landlord sent a move-out inspection report itemizing wall scuffs, a broken door handle, and gouged baseboards — and you want to fix them before the security deposit decision is made.

You are a landlord or property manager with a tenant vacating at the end of the month and need a unit turned over quickly so the next tenant can move in on time.

You just received keys to a new rental and the unit has pre-existing damage — sticky doors, loose cabinet hardware, a cracked towel bar — that the landlord agreed to repair before occupancy.

You are a short-term rental host in the East Bay or Peninsula who needs recurring between-guest punch-list repairs handled reliably without scheduling friction.

Your property has been vacant and small deferred maintenance items have piled up — misaligned interior doors, a broken window screen latch, scuffed trim — that need to be cleared before showings or a new lease.

You are a tenant doing a final walkthrough and want to proactively address minor damage rather than wait to see how much gets deducted from your deposit.

30-Day Warranty

Backed by your provider’s warranty. If covered work fails, your provider makes it right — free.

Frequently asked

Move-In / Move-Out Repairs — common questions

The size of the unit decides the price (studio, one, two, or three or more bedrooms), and touch-up painting is an optional line. Drywall patching, hardware replacement, door and window adjustment and photo documentation are included. The total appears before you book.

Yes. Every job booked through NorTech comes with a workmanship warranty of at least 30 days. If anything covered in the scope is not right within 30 days of completion, your provider returns and makes it right at no additional charge. Before-and-after photos are taken on every job so the completed work is documented.

Common items include patching small wall holes and scuffs, repairing or replacing interior door hardware, adjusting or re-hanging sticking interior doors, fixing loose towel bars and cabinet hardware, repairing damaged baseboards or trim, and patching minor damage to window screens. When you enter your address and describe the punch list, you will see a price covering the scope before you book.

Absolutely. NorTech is regularly used by property managers, independent landlords, and short-term-rental hosts turning over single-family homes and multi-unit properties across the Bay Area. You book online, a vetted local provider you choose takes on your property, and before-and-after photos give you documentation for your records.

Availability varies by area and schedule, but NorTech's booking flow shows you real availability at your ZIP code so you can select a time that fits your move-out or lease-start timeline. Getting ahead of the inspection date by even a few days gives you the best chance of clearing the punch list in one visit.

That depends on the pro you choose. Each pro sets their own price for a move-in or move-out punch list, either as one scope or item by item, and you see it when you describe your items and enter your ZIP, before you confirm. If your list includes something outside what the pro priced, they send a change for your approval before doing it, so no line item is added after the fact.
