Company History

The business began as a one-person drywall and patching effort after years working on renovation crews. Over time the owner added licensed electricians and plumbers to provide coordinated repairs on older homes where trades overlap. Small growth has focused on steady work, practical solutions, and repeat local customers.

They are used to Michigan weather challenges — freeze-thaw roof leaks in winter, and spring thaw causing basement moisture — so many repairs tie into seasonal maintenance.

Leadership

Leadership comes from a trades background. The founder is a local craftsman who trained through apprenticeships and licensing programs. They maintain active trade licenses and attend local contractor meetings and building department sessions to keep on code updates.

Staff often live in the same communities they serve, which helps with timely responses and local knowledge about common house styles and materials.

Specialties & Highlights

• Careful drywall texture matching for older plaster and lathe walls.
• Fast triage for combined issues — for example, diagnosing whether a stain is plumbing or roof related.
• Licensed electrical and plumbing team members for safer repairs under one contractor.
• Practical, photo-documented estimates that show work steps and costs.
