Headlight
Restoration

Cloudy, yellowed headlights make a car look older than it is and cut the light that reaches the road. Restoring the lenses brings back the clarity for a fraction of the cost of new headlight assemblies.

You only pay if you’re satisfied with my results.

  • Removes yellowing, haze and oxidation from plastic lenses
  • Brighter, safer night driving
  • Done in your driveway, no trip to a shop

Don’t waste your time with cleaners or WD-40, which doesn’t last. I have a professional process that is guaranteed to permanently improve your headlights.

How it works

  1. 01

    Prep

    I clean the lens and tape off the surrounding paint and trim to protect it.

  2. 02

    Wet-sand

    The damaged, oxidized surface layer is sanded away in stages, from coarse to fine grit.

  3. 03

    Secret Sauce

    I use a heated liquid polymer polisher to bring the lens back to a clear, glossy finish.

Dryer Vent
Cleaning

Your lint trap only catches part of the lint. The rest builds up inside the vent line, restricting airflow so loads take longer and the dryer runs hot. A clogged vent is also a fire risk.

You only pay if you’re satisfied with my results.

  • Dryer fire caused by lint buildup
    Fire riskLint buildup in a clogged vent is a leading cause of dryer fires. Cleaning the full vent run lowers that risk.
  • Full vent run cleaned, from the dryer to the outside or rooftop cap
  • Faster drying and less wear on your dryer
  • Clears blockages like nests and crushed duct

How it works

  1. 01

    Inspect

    I pull the dryer out, disconnect it and check the duct and the exterior vent cap.

  2. 02

    Brush & vacuum

    A rotary brush runs the full length of the vent while a vacuum captures the lint.

  3. 03

    Clear the cap

    The outside or rooftop cap is cleaned so the flap opens freely.

  4. 04

    Reconnect & test

    I reconnect the dryer, check the duct for kinks and confirm strong airflow.

Window
Washing

Clean windows change how a whole room feels. I wash glass inside and out and take care of the screens, sills and tracks that usually get skipped. For larger projects, sometimes I have a team of friends who help me out.

You only pay if you’re satisfied with my results.

  • Interior and exterior glass
  • Screens washed and reinstalled
  • Sills and tracks wiped clean
  • Streak-free finish

How it works

  1. 01

    Prep

    Screens come off and sills are dusted so dirt doesn’t smear across the glass.

  2. 02

    Scrub

    Each pane is washed with a cleaning solution to lift grime, pollen and water spots.

  3. 03

    Squeegee

    A professional squeegee leaves the glass clear, then the edges are detailed by hand.

  4. 04

    Finish

    Tracks and sills are wiped, and clean screens go back in.

Car
Detailing

A thorough detail makes an everyday car feel new again, inside and out, without you having to leave home. For faster service, sometimes I have a team of friends who help me out.

  • Hand wash and dry
  • Wheels and tires cleaned and dressed
  • Interior vacuumed, including seats, mats and trunk
  • Dash, console and door panels wiped down
  • Windows cleaned inside and out
  • Clay towel treatment to remove embedded dirt and contaminants
  • Ceramic wax for shine and protection

How it works

  1. 01

    Exterior wash

    Wheels first, then a hand wash from the top down and a careful dry.

  2. 02

    Clay towel treatment

    A clay towel glides over the paint to lift embedded dirt and contaminants, leaving it smooth.

  3. 03

    Protect

    Ceramic wax goes on for shine and protection, and tires get dressed.

  4. 04

    Interior

    A full vacuum, then every surface is wiped and the glass is cleaned.

  5. 05

    Walk-through

    We look the car over together before I pack up.

Landscaping
& Drainage

From yard cleanups to fixing the spot where water pools every winter, I take on the outdoor projects that make your yard look better and work better. I’ve done landscaping and drainage work for homeowners across Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda. For larger projects, sometimes I have a team of friends who help me out.

You only pay if you’re satisfied with my results.

  • Planting, mulching and garden bed refreshes
  • Weeding, pruning and seasonal yard cleanups
  • Drainage fixes to move water away from your house

How it works

  1. 01

    Walk the yard

    We walk the property together so I understand what you want and where water goes when it rains.

  2. 02

    Plan & price

    I put together a simple plan and a clear price before any work starts.

  3. 03

    Do the work

    Planting, cleanup or drainage work done carefully, with your existing plants and hardscape protected.

  4. 04

    Clean up

    I rake and sweep so the yard is ready to enjoy.

Pressure
Washing

Driveways, patios and walkways collect dirt, moss, oil stains and grime that a hose won’t touch. Pressure washing brings hard surfaces back to looking like new. For larger projects, sometimes I have a team of friends who help me out.

You name it, I’ll pressure wash it.

  • Driveways, walkways and patios
  • Decks, fences and outdoor furniture
  • Garbage-can areas and side yards
  • Pressure matched to the surface so nothing gets damaged

Meet Chase

I’m Chase Belhumeur, a senior at Acalanes High School and an Eagle Scout who grew up right here in Lamorinda. I started this business to do the jobs people put off, and to do them the way I was taught in Scouting: plan it, do it right, and leave the place better than I found it. For larger projects, sometimes I have a team of friends who help me out.

My Eagle Project

For my Eagle Scout project I designed and led the build of an outdoor kitchen for the Contra Costa Youth Service Bureau in Richmond: a block-and-stucco grill island with a high power gas grill and stainless cabinet doors, set in a refreshed gathering space for the kids and families the Bureau serves.

I planned the project, raised the money, organized the volunteers and ran the work days, from pouring the base and laying block to stucco, tile and installing the grill.

The Golden Gate Area Council named it Eagle Project of the Year (2023), and I received a Richmond Leadership Appreciation Certificate.
