Company History

Smith J A began as a one-person business focused on repair calls in Howard County. Over the years it grew to a small local company by keeping work simple and practical. Growth came from repeat customers in older Elkridge houses and newer subdivisions nearby.

The company learned to work on a wide range of homes — from century-old houses near the Patapsco River to townhouse communities closer to major roads. That range helped shape a practical approach: diagnose clearly, repair carefully, and explain options plainly.
