Real before & after results from Edwardsville homeowners. Every job is done right the first time.
BEFORE
AFTERDeck Repair — Edwardsville, IL
A homeowner near Holiday Shores had a rear deck with significant rot in the outer joist and several soft deck boards that had become a safety concern. We removed the damaged boards and the compromised joist section, sistered in new pressure-treated lumber, replaced seven deck boards, and rebuilt the railing post bases that had rotted at the footing. The deck was sanded and stained to match the original finish. Completed in one full day. See our deck repair service page for more.
BEFORE
AFTERDrywall Repair — Edwardsville, IL
A plumber had cut a 14" x 18" access hole in a hallway wall near the Leclaire neighborhood to repair a supply line. After the plumbing was fixed, the homeowner needed the wall restored before painting. We installed a backing board, cut and fit a new drywall patch, applied two coats of joint compound, matched the existing skip-trowel texture, primed, and painted the entire wall section. The repair is invisible. Learn more about our drywall repair service.
BEFORE
AFTERDoor Installation — Edwardsville, IL
A homeowner in a 1970s ranch home near SIUE had an original wood entry door that had warped over the years, making it difficult to latch and allowing drafts in winter. We removed the old door and damaged frame, squared up the rough opening, installed a new fiberglass pre-hung unit with a modern deadbolt and lever handle, insulated around the frame, and repainted the exterior trim. The door now seals perfectly and the homeowner noticed an immediate improvement in comfort. See our door installation and repair page.

Homeowner Tips for Edwardsville Homes
Check older homes for plaster wall issues
Many homes near downtown Edwardsville and the Leclaire neighborhood have original plaster walls. Plaster cracks differently than drywall and requires a different repair approach. Our team has experience with both — we'll match the texture correctly. See our drywall and plaster repair service.
Dunlap Lake and Holiday Shores decks age faster
Homes near water see accelerated wood decay from humidity and moisture. If your deck is more than 10 years old and hasn't been inspected, it's worth a look. Early deck repair is far less expensive than full replacement.
Pre-sale punch lists near SIUE move fast
Edwardsville's real estate market near SIUE is active. If you're preparing to list, a home repair punch list handled in one visit can significantly improve your home's presentation and inspection results.
Bundle repairs to save on trip fees
Our service packages and membership plan let you bundle multiple small repairs into one visit, saving on scheduling fees and getting everything done at once.
