Repairs by Category
A Practical Way to Think About Repairs.
Repair issues feel chaotic when you see them one by one. We make them predictable by organizing repairs the same way a home is actually built and used. Five categories. Clear vocabulary. A repeatable way to spot what matters, explain it in plain language, and get the right work done without chasing multiple contractors. Our in-house repair teams handle the work, and we stay your single point of contact.-
Interior
The lived-in spaces buyers react to first. Interior work often looks cosmetic, but it can also reveal moisture, movement, or wear that matters for the deal. Common work includes:
- drywall and paint
- doors/windows/trim fixes
- floors and stairs
- kitchen and bath refresh work
- caulking/grout and wet-area repairs
-
Exterior Repairs
How the home meets the outside world. This is where weather and water show up first, and where small misses turn into bigger problems over time.
Common work includes:- roof and flashing repairs
- gutters/downspouts
- siding and trim
- exterior doors/windows
- grading anddrainage tweaks
- decks/porches, walksand drives
-
Structural
The bones of the home. These repairs change the conversation because they affect stability and long-term risk.
Common work includes:- foundation and slab items,
- crawlspace and subfloor issues,
- framing and support repairs,
- masonry and chimney repairs
-
Mechanical
The systems that move air, water, power, and waste. When these break down, buyers feel it immediately in comfort, safety, and cost.
Common work includes:- Electrical fixes
- Plumbing supply/drain repairs
- Water heater work
- HVAC and ductwork issues
-
Appliances
The day-one experience layer. Most appliances are swappable, but failures create instant frustration (and sometimes water or safety issues).
Common work includes:- Kitchen appliances and disposals
- Laundry appliances
- Dryer venting repairs or reroutes
- Leak-related fixes around appliance hookups
