Coverage

Every Concord neighborhood, plus the neighbors.

The van stands at Todos Santos Plaza, so most of the city is about 23 minutes away. Clayton Valley, Martinez and Bay Point run longer, and each area page says by how much.

Concord neighborhoods

Inside Concord

Downtown & Todos Santos Plaza

~16 min

The square, the four streets around it, and the shops and restaurants on Salvio and Grant with apartments on the floors above. Market stalls on Tuesday and Thursday, the BART station two blocks off, tables outside until late. The van sits at the plaza, so sixteen minutes is the shortest run on the map.

Local page

Monument Corridor

~18 min

Monument Boulevard and Detroit Avenue, with the fourplexes and two-story garden blocks on the streets between them. Buzzer panels at the courtyard gate, unit numbers that ignore the street, carports at the rear, and the largest share of renters in the city. Eighteen minutes from the plaza, and a lot of this work lands after six.

Local page

Ygnacio Valley

~23 min

The long run of tract streets either side of Ygnacio Valley Road, laid out in the middle sixties and barely altered since. Single-story houses, wide driveways, garage side doors, aluminum sliders onto the back patio, and Mount Diablo at the end of most of them. Twenty-three minutes from the plaza.

Local page

Clayton Valley & Crystyl Ranch

~26 min

The newer streets climbing east and north toward the hills, from the seventies through the nineties and later. Two-story houses on cut lots, side gates onto the yard, detached garages, long driveways, and gates that open on an operator. Twenty-six minutes from the plaza, the longest run inside the city.

Local page

Sun Terrace & Meadow Homes

~19 min

The oldest of the postwar streets, flat and close-set, with small lots, garages facing the road, screen doors on the front and long-owned houses behind them. Nineteen minutes from the plaza, and most of this work happens between nine in the morning and the school run.

Local page

Dana Estates & Holbrook Heights

~24 min

The hillside streets north-west of downtown, built at the end of the fifties and into the sixties. Split-level houses stepping up from the curb, carports and tuck-under garages, steps to a front door a half level above the street, and views back over the valley. Twenty-four minutes from the plaza.

Local page

Bates Avenue & the yards

~23 min

The working east side of the city. Warehouses, machine shops, distributors and fenced yards along Bates Avenue, Solano Way and Port Chicago Highway, with steel doors in steel frames, chains on the roll-ups and a bar on every rear wall. Twenty-three minutes from the plaza, and a good share of these calls come in the dark.

Local page

North Concord & Willow Pass

~23 min

The streets running north along Willow Pass Road toward the old Naval Weapons Station, with the North Concord/Martinez BART station, its park-and-ride lots and the frontage roads either side of Highway 242. Twenty-three minutes from the plaza, and much of the work here happens in a parking lot.

24/7 — nights, weekends & holidays

Give the street, hear the figure, and the door gets opened the way it was built to be opened

Concord, Pleasant Hill, Pacheco, Clayton, Martinez and Walnut Creek, 24/7, holidays included. Say what the door is doing and one figure comes back with the $89 visit already inside it and the hour already counted. The lock is opened without damage wherever it can be, and the receipt shows what the call showed, whether the deed is in your name or the lease is.
