Home Repairs in La Grange, IL

La Grange home repairs, nothing done without a price

Home repairs cover the things that wear out or break in a house people live in every day. Our crew handles drywall and plaster holes, doors that drag or will not latch, rotted trim and siding, sump and ejector pumps, caulk and grout, deck boards and stair treads, and faucets, toilets and shutoffs. Send photos and we can often price a short list without a visit. For a longer list, we come out and leave an itemized estimate in writing.

We reach La Grange on I-294 and Ogden Avenue and work along La Grange Road and 47th Street, around downtown and the Metra station. Rot is the repair that most often hides more than it shows. A soft spot at the bottom of a door jamb or window sill can stop at the trim, or it can run into the sheathing and framing behind it. When we pull rotted trim on a La Grange house, we probe what is behind it, show you what we find, and price any added repair before we touch it.

Our process in La Grange

Every repair starts with a free written estimate, priced from your photos or from a visit. You see each item and its price before we schedule anything. If we open a wall or pull trim and find damage behind it, we stop, show you, and put that price in writing for your approval. We work on the days we booked, keep the dust contained, and walk through the list with you when it is done.

FAQ

Home Repairs in La Grange: questions

What happens if the rot goes deeper than the trim?

We stop and show you. If the sheathing or framing is soft, we price that repair in writing, and we only go ahead after you approve it.

Do you work in towns around La Grange?

Yes, including La Grange Park, Western Springs, Hinsdale and Burr Ridge.

Do I need a permit for repairs in La Grange?

Trim, patch and fixture repairs generally do not need one. If an item on your list does, we pull it with the village and schedule the inspection.

Can you replace rotted trim in winter?

We can cut out and replace the wood on a dry day, but primer, paint and caulk need warmer weather to cure, so the finish work may wait for spring. Interior repairs can be booked any time of year.
