How much do home services cost in Palo Alto?

NorTech uses pricing set by local pros, so you see the full price before you book in ZIP 94301 and across Palo Alto. Each local pro sets their own price, and because the rate is fixed up front there are no surprise hourly charges.

Are the providers licensed, insured, and background-checked?

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 exceed that threshold it goes to bids from NorTech-verified licensed general contractors.

Can NorTech help maintain my Eichler home?

Yes. Palo Alto has more Eichlers than anywhere on earth, and providers understand their post-and-beam construction, radiant slab floors, and floor-to-ceiling glass, so work like painting, flooring, and repairs is done with that mid-century design in mind.

Are utility trenching (water, sewer, gas & electric) providers in Palo Alto background-checked?

Every independent provider on the platform is vetted and background-checked before they're allowed to take a job. Providers on the platform choose Palo Alto jobs that fit their experience, because precision in these homes isn't optional.

Who backs utility trenching (water, sewer, gas & electric) work in Palo Alto?

Your pro does. Every job in Palo Alto 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.
