About Me

Hello!  I’m Miguel Payan and I own and operate Handyman 831.

I’ve been doing Salinas, CA handyman and property maintenance/home repair work professionally since 2000.  Handyman 831 has been up and running since 2013.  I’ve completed full house remodels to small maintenance tasks…and almost everything in between.

A Salinas resident my entire life, I currently live in South Salinas with my wife, daughter, and border collie.

I’m not a state licensed contractor, but rather a skilled maintenance and repair specialist.  I cover a wide variety of fields while giving you great pricing.  I’m licensed locally and have full general liability insurance coverage.  All forms of payment are accepted: cash, check, credit card, PayPal, Zelle, Apple Pay and Venmo.  And I’m open to bartering!

I cover all Monterey County areas: Salinas, Monterey, Seaside, Prunedale, South County, Monterey Peninsula, Carmel, Carmel Valley, and all areas in between.  

I can’t do everything (no one can).  But I can do a lot.  And for each job I’ll give you quality work, strong attention to detail, and friendly service.  Give me a call or text to see how I can help with your project.  831.320.3120
