Hi, I'm Alex, the owner of GALAXSAW Handyman Services. After working as a commercial carpenter on large-scale construction projects—including a new Nike facility in Beaverton—I discovered that I enjoy the personal side of construction: helping homeowners, landlords, and local businesses with smaller projects that need attention and quality workmanship.
Today, I provide reliable handyman services throughout the Portland metro area. I specialize in small residential and commercial projects that many larger contractors don't take on, including repairs and installations that can typically be completed in four hours or less. My experience includes electrical and plumbing fixture replacements, PEX-A and PEX-B plumbing work, door lock and hardware installation, door jamb repairs, and many other home maintenance and repair services.
I am proud to be part of the Home Depot Pro Services contractor network and have completed projects for local organizations, including Reynolds School District. I am licensed, bonded, and insured through the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB #233510).
Whether you are a homeowner, landlord, or property manager, my goal is simple: provide dependable service, clear communication, and quality repairs you can trust.
Thank you for visiting GALAXSAW Handyman Services. I look forward to helping with your next project.
Child & Pet Safety Installation in Portland Metro Oregon
Making your home safer for a child doesn't have to mean changing the entire house.
GALAXSAW provides child safety and pet safety installation services for homeowners throughout the Portland metro area. We can install practical safety products that help keep children and pets away from areas, objects, and spaces that may not be safe for them.
Childproofing and Pet-Proofing Your Home
Many of the same safety improvements that help protect young children can also be useful for dogs and cats.
GALAXSAW can help install items such as:
- Child safety gates
- Pet gates and barriers
- Cabinet and drawer safety locks
- Door safety locks
- Furniture and shelving anchors
- Window safety devices
- Corner and edge protectors
- Outlet covers and other child-safety products
- Pet-proofing barriers
- Other small home safety installations
If you already purchased the safety products, have them available when scheduling the installation.
Baby and Toddler Safety Installation
As children become more mobile, areas of the home that once seemed harmless can become potential hazards.
Installing cabinet locks, safety gates, furniture anchors, and other childproofing products can help make kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, stairways, and other parts of the home more suitable for young children.
GALAXSAW can install compatible safety products according to the manufacturer's installation instructions.
Pet Safety Installation
Child safety isn't only for children.
Dogs and cats can also get into cabinets, climb onto furniture, push through doors, or reach areas where they shouldn't be.
Pet gates, barriers, cabinet locks, door restrictions, and furniture anchors can help create a safer environment for your pets while protecting your home from unwanted damage.
If you're bringing home a new puppy or kitten, or your pet has learned how to get into places they shouldn't, a few small installations can make a big difference.
Safety Gates and Barriers
Safety gates can be useful for both children and pets.
They can help restrict access to:
- Stairways
- Kitchens
- Offices
- Laundry rooms
- Bedrooms
- Other areas of the home
The correct type of gate and mounting method depends on the location and the product. GALAXSAW can install appropriate gates and barriers according to the manufacturer's requirements.
Cabinet, Drawer and Door Locks
Children and pets can both be surprisingly good at opening things.
Cabinet and drawer locks can help keep cleaning products, household supplies, tools, food, and other items out of reach.
Door locks and safety latches can also help limit access to rooms or areas that need to remain closed.
Furniture Anchoring and Tip-Over Prevention
Tall furniture, shelving, and other freestanding items may benefit from being securely anchored to the wall.
GALAXSAW can install appropriate furniture and shelving anchors where the product and wall construction allow for a secure installation.
If you have recently moved into a new home and have furniture that needs to be secured for children or pets, this can be combined with other small home projects.
A Safer Home Without a Major Project
Childproofing or pet-proofing a home doesn't necessarily require a large project.
Sometimes the solution is simply installing a few gates, locks, anchors, or barriers in the places where they're needed most.
If you have a list of child safety or pet safety products you'd like installed, send GALAXSAW the list and we can help determine which installations are within our scope of work.
