The holiday season brings family gatherings, friends, and festive décor — and a few minor issues can quickly become annoyances. Now is the perfect time to tackle interior repairs and upgrades to make your Southwest Dallas County home guest-ready.

1. Repair Doors and Cabinetry

Squeaky doors, sticking drawers, or loose cabinet handles can frustrate you and your guests.

Quick Tip: Lubricate hinges, tighten hardware, and adjust alignment for smooth operation.

Dim or flickering lights can be unsafe and uninviting.

Cabinet doors that don’t close properly or leaky faucets are common holiday frustrations.

Tip: Tighten hardware, fix minor leaks, and ensure everything works smoothly before guests arrive.
