Home Repairs in Arlington Heights

We repair Arlington Heights homes to suit what they are built from, plaster or drywall, wood doors or steel, with each price in writing first.

Arlington Heights repairs matched to the house

Home repairs here cover the full list: walls and ceilings, doors, exterior trim and siding, sump and ejector pumps, caulk and grout, and the fixtures that start to leak. We work it as one job, so you are not lining up separate trades for each item. If you have only a few things, photos texted to us are often enough to price them. For a longer list we visit and give you an estimate in writing with every repair listed and priced.

We work in Arlington Heights every week, coming in on Route 53 and using Arlington Heights Road and Northwest Highway to reach the neighborhoods around downtown and the Metra station. It is a Cook County village bordering Palatine and Rolling Meadows, with a mix of house types, and not every wall in it is drywall. Plaster needs a different repair. A crack in plaster over lath usually means the plaster is letting go of the lath, so we reattach it before patching and use materials that bond to plaster instead of a drywall patch that will crack along its edge.

Home Repairs by ONIT Solutions

Arlington Heights repairs we cover

Plaster cracks and holes

We reattach loose plaster to the lath, then patch with materials made to bond to it so the repair does not crack at the edge.

Drywall repairs

Holes, dents and seam cracks in drywall are patched, taped and finished ready for paint.

Doors

Wood and steel doors that drag, bind or will not latch get adjusted, trimmed or rehung.

Trim and siding

Rotted trim, sills and siding pieces are replaced and sealed so water runs off instead of soaking in.

Pumps and battery backups

We replace failing sump and ejector pumps and install a backup that runs when the power is out.

Fixtures and shutoffs

Leaking faucets, running toilets and stuck shutoffs are repaired or replaced.

How Arlington Heights repair work runs

The estimate comes first, on paper, with a price next to each repair. We build it from your photos when the list is short or from a visit when it is long. If opening a wall or pulling trim shows a problem that was not on the list, you get a written price for it and decide before we go further. We arrive on the agreed day, keep the work area contained, and finish with a walkthrough of every item.

  • Plaster walls get plaster repairs.
  • The estimate lists a price for each item.
  • New problems are priced and approved first.
  • Dust stays inside the work area.
  • We share our insurance certificate before work starts.
  • We go over each repair with you at the end.
FAQ

Home Repairs in Arlington Heights: questions

My walls are plaster. Can you patch them?
Yes. We reattach loose plaster to the lath and patch with materials that bond to plaster, which holds better than a drywall patch set into it.
Do you work near Arlington Heights?
We do. Our crew also handles repairs in Palatine, Rolling Meadows and Schaumburg.
Does Arlington Heights need a permit for home repairs?
For the typical repair list, no. If a repair grows into work the village permits, we pull the permit and schedule the inspection before that part starts.
When can you fit me in?
Get in touch at (815) 585-1750, by phone or text. One repair can be same-day when the schedule allows, and longer lists get dates in writing that we book around.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop and show you, then write up a price for it. Nothing outside the approved list gets done without your okay.
