Close up the soft trim, split siding and open joints on your Elmhurst house before winter, with every repair priced in writing first.
Our home repair service takes the whole list, from soffit and fascia on the outside to a hole in the hallway wall and a toilet that will not stop running inside. Each repair gets its own line and its own price. Two or three items can often be priced from texted photos, and a longer list gets a visit and an itemized estimate in writing. When a repair opens up a problem you did not list, we price it and get your approval before we touch it.
We work in Elmhurst every week, coming in on I-290 and I-294 and getting around on York Road, North Avenue and St. Charles Road. The city sits in DuPage County next to Villa Park and Oak Brook, with downtown Elmhurst, the Metra station and Elmhurst University near the middle of town. Outside, the repairs that matter most before winter are the ones that let water in: soft fascia behind an overflowing gutter, a soffit panel that has come loose, siding split at a corner, open caulk joints around windows. We replace the failed wood, refasten the panels, caulk the gaps and prime anything new so the house goes into the cold sealed.
Soft or rotted fascia behind the gutter is replaced and primed, and the gutter goes back on solid wood.
Loose, sagging or damaged soffit is refastened or replaced to close the eaves.
Split, cracked or soft siding boards are replaced and the joints sealed.
Failed exterior caulk is removed and redone around windows, doors and trim.
Wall holes, cracked seams and doors that will not latch get fixed on the same trip.
Running toilets, drips and stuck shutoff valves are repaired or replaced.
We price the list from your photos or a visit and write it up item by item. You approve it, and we book a day, with exterior work set for dry weather and interior work able to go any time. If pulling a fascia board shows rot in the rafter tail behind it, we show you, price it in writing and wait for your approval. At the end we walk the outside of the house and the inside list with you.
Send photos of the trim, soffit or siding you are worried about, and add the inside items to the same message.
