Why I start with a quick form
I'm not a big company. I'm one guy, and most of the day I'm up on a ladder in someone's home. The short form and your photos are how I make sure your message never gets lost while I'm working, and how I can give you a real, flat price without a week of phone tag.
If you call while I'm on a job, my virtual assistant answers so your call never goes to voicemail. I personally review every request and write every quote. I usually get back to you in under 2 hours (Mon–Sat, 8–6).
The system isn't there to keep you at a distance. It's there so I can spend my time doing the work.

In 2012, my younger brother John Sladish and I were both working in pizza. I was a lead delivery driver, and the tips were decent, but we were both unhappy and knew we wanted more. John had loved fixing things since we were kids, following the maintenance guys around the apartment complexes where we grew up. I was hooked on business and on giving people a great experience.
So we quit and went all in. We drove around in my four-door Honda Civic, stopping at local businesses and offering to fix whatever they'd been putting off, for free. We heard no after no after no. Then a local daycare said yes. That was our first proof that we could help people and get paid for it.
We kept at it, earned our first reviews, and over the years built Unstoppable Handyman into one of the most highly reviewed handyman services in San Diego, with 500+ Google reviews.
John
John was the lead handyman and the face of the business. A lot of those early reviews are about his work, his big smile, and the way he made people feel comfortable in their own homes. I ran everything else: the phones, the quotes, the scheduling. We had each other's backs from day one.
John was diagnosed with stomach cancer. He fought hard, and for a while it looked like he was recovering. Then it came back. He passed away the night before Mother's Day, 2025.
We miss you, John.
Carrying on
Since then, it's been me. I stepped into the work John used to do in people's homes while still running everything behind the scenes. It hasn't been easy, but I've proved to myself that even at the hardest times, I can hunker down and get it done.
That's what Unstoppable means.
It was always about the mindset: showing up every day committed to good work, no matter what gets thrown at you. And being grateful every time someone lets me into their home. That's personal space, and I don't take it lightly.
My family
I'm a husband and a dad. My wife is a first-generation immigrant, and we have four amazing Mexican-American children. If Spanish is easier for you, call or text and we can work it out in Spanish.
I love Chula Vista. It's huge, it's diverse, it has everything you need, and it's close to Baja, where our family is. I serve South Bay and Chula Vista first, plus homes across San Diego.
“Preston texted me quickly and asked me to send pictures so he could make a quote. The quote was detailed and listed each step he would need to take and the price was reasonable.”
“Preston was communicative, prompt, straight forward, professional, fair, and he did a great job! … He actually showed up early, but was polite enough to knock on the door at the exact time of the appointment.”
“Preston was a great communicator, showed up on time, got all the windows caulked and left no mess behind. … Good guy!”
Thank you
Every time someone chooses me to come into their home, I'm genuinely grateful. If you've got a list of small things that keep getting pushed off, send me some photos.
