What Evanston Homeowners Count on Us to Fix
Evanston's older housing stock, much of it built between 1890 and 1960, brings specific repair patterns we see over and over. Wood rot shows up around window frames and exterior trim after a few hard Illinois winters. Doors in older Craftsman homes sag or bind as the framing settles. Drywall in homes with plaster beneath it cracks differently from standard gypsum board, and patching it the right way takes experience. Our service professionals know these buildings well enough to conduct quality drywall repair. They've worked in the Lakefront historic district, on the blocks around Northwestern, and throughout central Evanston neighborhoods where the housing mix runs from Victorian two-flats to mid-century ranches.
We also offer services for your electrical needs. Ceiling fan installation, light fixture replacement, and TV mounting are among the most-requested electrical jobs we handle in Evanston. We also get a lot of calls for furniture assembly, especially IKEA and RH pieces, and for hanging art, mirrors, and shelving where the walls need proper anchoring. If your home has older plaster walls, getting anchors into the right spot without cracking the surrounding surface is not as simple as it looks. Our team does it daily.
