New City homeowners trust Odds & Ends for reliable handyman work. From deck repairs to basement finishing, Dan has been serving New City since 2001.

Why Local Homeowners Choose Odds & Ends

We treat every New City home like it's our own. That means showing up when we say we will, keeping the work area clean, and delivering the kind of quality finish that makes you glad you didn't try to DIY it. We've been doing this in Rockland County for over 20 years, and a big part of our business comes from repeat clients and referrals right here in New City. When your neighbor recommends us, we take that seriously — and we work hard to earn that trust every single time.

The Local Advantage

New City's housing boom in the 1960s and 1970s means most homes here are hitting the 50- to 60-year mark — the age when original decks fail, basement waterproofing breaks down, and dated split-level layouts start begging for modernization. The heavy clay soil common throughout central Clarkstown creates persistent foundation moisture pressure, making basement waterproofing a recurring need.

Local Knowledge

Local Housing & Neighborhoods

The housing stock in New City is predominantly split-level and raised ranch homes built in the 1960s–70s, with some newer colonial developments in the western sections. Many feature original wood decks, aging aluminum siding, and lower-level family rooms prone to moisture issues.

Local Tips & Permit Info

New City falls under the Town of Clarkstown building department. Permits are required for decks, fences over 6 feet, and any electrical or plumbing work. If you're finishing a basement, Clarkstown requires egress windows for any bedroom space. Many neighborhoods have deed restrictions beyond standard zoning, so check with the building department before adding structures.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from homeowners in New City

What areas of New City do you serve?

We serve all of New City and the surrounding Clarkstown area, from the neighborhoods around the county complex to the homes off Little Tor Road, Congers Road, and everywhere in between.

Can you handle both small repairs and larger projects?

Absolutely. We're just as comfortable replacing a faucet or patching drywall as we are rebuilding a deck or finishing a basement. Many of our New City clients start with a small job and end up calling us back for bigger projects once they see our work.

Do you work on split-level and raised ranch homes?

Yes, and we know them well. These mid-century home styles are common in New City, and they have their own set of typical maintenance needs — from updating dated layouts to addressing issues with lower-level moisture and aging mechanicals.

How do you handle estimates and pricing?

We provide free on-site estimates with clear, written quotes. No hidden fees, no surprise charges. We'll walk through the scope of work with you so you know exactly what to expect before we start.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We carry full liability insurance and are properly licensed to perform handyman and home improvement work throughout Rockland County, including New City.
