Repairs and punch lists

Send us the list. Each repair is priced as its own line, so you can do all of it, some of it, or start with the items that matter most.

A brass knob, latch and strike plate on a door standing ajar.

Every house has a list: the ceiling fan that wobbles, the spout that drips, the mirror that came off the wall, the door that will not latch. On their own they are small; together they are a day or two of work.

We price the list item by item. You decide what to do now and what can wait, and the invoice matches the list.

In Chicago-area homes

Older homes in Chicago often have plaster walls, which need different anchors and patching than drywall. We bring the right materials for the wall you have.

How it is priced

Small jobs are priced by the item on the list, plus the time to reach and prepare the wall. Plaster takes different anchors and patching than drywall, so that is noted per item. You choose which items to approve before work begins. Changes need your written approval first. How scopes, changes and invoices work

Questions

Is my list too small?

Send it anyway. Small lists are often combined into one visit, and each item is priced separately so you can choose.

Can you finish a punch list left by another contractor?

Yes. We will walk the list with you, note what is involved for each item and price them individually.
