Book a Visit, Not a Guess
Flat-Fee Home Audits
Not sure where to start? Book a flat-fee audit and put a trained craftsman's eyes on your home. Each audit is a focused, hands-on inspection that ends with a same-day punch-list — every recommended fix written down with its own line-item price, so you can approve exactly what you want on the spot. The audit fee is credited back toward any same-day repairs over $250.
Safety
Home Safety Audit

- • Smoke & CO detector placement and age
- • Trip hazards, thresholds & loose flooring
- • Door locks, lighting & entry security
Energy

- • Dryer-vent airflow & lint buildup
- • Includes minor on-the-spot draft sealing
Storm

Flat Audit Fee
$99
credited toward same-day work

- • Exterior caulk, seals & wall penetrations
- • Sump pump, leak sensors & washer hoses
- • Loose trim, storm doors & window seals

Parts & Materials
Materials & Supply Runs
Materials are never bundled into your Service Call or hourly rate. You always have two transparent options — supply them yourself, or let us handle the sourcing for you.

Have the parts ready on-site and there is no markup at all. We simply install what you provide. Please confirm the exact make, model, and specs before your appointment so nothing stalls the job.
$0 materials markup
We Supply the Materials
Skip the store run. With prior agreement we shop, select, and warranty the correct parts. A standard 10–15% supply markup covers our sourcing time, vehicle use, and the liability of standing behind every part we bring.
10–15% supply markup
Materials we purchase under the 10–15% markup carry our workmanship warranty; parts you supply are never covered.
