Mix4Services — construction and repair

Hard water ends here.

Whole-house water softener and pre-filter installation. Houston sits on hard water, and it is what quietly kills heaters, fixtures and appliances years early. Most installs are finished and tested the same day — and we still do the rest of the handyman work you need.

The specialism, and the rest

Water first. Everything else still stands.

Water treatment is what we do most and do best — softeners, pre-filters and whole-house systems. The rest of the list is real work we still take on, and whoever Azamat brings with him, you deal with one person and one schedule. Tap any line to price it.

  • Houston sits on hard water, and it is what kills heaters, fixtures and appliances early. A softener swap needs no plumbing license, so we do it same day.

    $450–$2,400typical range
  • Freeze events and hard water are rough on supply lines. We say plainly when replacing beats repairing.

    $150–$2,400typical range
  • TV brackets, ceiling fans, light fixtures, shelving, appliance hook-ups. Quick for us, miserable for a Saturday afternoon.

    $120–$900typical range
  • Racks, cable machines, treadmills and benches, built and leveled. We have outfitted a full gym floor, so a home setup is an afternoon.

    $150–$6,000typical range
  • Older West Houston stock runs out of panel capacity long before it runs out of life.

    $150–$4,000typical range
  • Demolition through final punch list. Bathrooms finish in two to three weeks; kitchens in four to eight.

    $8,000–$55,000typical range
  • Non-standard kitchens, built-ins and epoxy river tables, built with a cabinetmaker who has done it his whole life. Drawn to your room, not ordered from a catalog.

    $1,500–$25,000typical range

    How a job runs

    Five steps, no surprises in the middle

    1. Call or request a quote

      Tell us the job. Most questions get answered on the first call, including whether you actually need us.

    2. On-site assessment

      We look at real conditions — access, age, what is behind the wall. This is where guesses turn into numbers.

    3. Written estimate

      Fixed scope and fixed price, permits itemised separately. You approve before anything is ordered.

    4. The work

      Daily clean-up. If something behind the wall changes the price, you hear it that day — not at the end.

    5. Walkthrough & warranty

      We walk it with you, clear the punch list, and hand over the 1-year workmanship warranty.

    Before you call

    Questions we get every week

    Do you charge for estimates?
    On-site estimates are free for projects over $1,000. For smaller repairs there is an $89 service call, and it is credited toward the work if you hire us.
    How fast can you get here?
    Weekday calls placed before 2pm usually get a same-day visit inside our core service area. Emergencies — active leaks, no power, storm damage — are answered around the clock.
    Are the prices on this site final?
    No. They are typical ranges for the Houston market, published so you know roughly where you stand before picking up the phone. Your final price depends on access, the age and condition of what we find, the materials you choose and your exact location. You get a fixed written price after the on-site assessment.
    Do you pull permits?
    Yes, wherever the work requires one. Permit fees appear as their own line on your estimate rather than buried inside the labor rate.
    What areas do you cover?
    Greater Houston — the Energy Corridor, Memorial, Katy, Cypress, Sugar Land, Spring, The Woodlands, Pearland, Humble and Conroe among them, roughly 50 miles out. Call us for anything just past that.
    Is there a warranty?
    Every completed job carries a 1-year workmanship warranty. Manufacturer warranties on materials and appliances pass through to you.

    Where we work

    Greater Houston

    We cover the metro, from the Energy Corridor out to Conroe, Baytown and Pearland. If your suburb is not on the list it is still worth a call — the answer is usually yes.
