Wilmington Minor Home Repairs

Every home has a list: the tub that needs recaulking, the railing that wobbles, the trim that came loose, the cabinet door that hangs crooked and the towel bar that pulled out of the wall. None of these jobs is big on its own, but together they make a house feel worn. In Wilmington, where about 43 percent of homes were built in 1939 or earlier, that list tends to be long. Our team works through it across Wilmington, Newark, New Castle and Hockessin. Call (302) 600-1343 today for a quote. Our team is fully committed to reliable minor home repairs in Wilmington.

Caulk, Grout And Seals

Cracked caulk around a tub, shower or sink lets water into the wall behind it, and failed grout lets it under the tile. Our handymen cut out old, moldy or peeling caulk, clean and dry the joint, and lay a neat new bead of mildew-resistant sealant. Cracked or missing grout is raked out and replaced, then sealed where the material calls for it. Outside, gaps around window trim, door frames and siding are recaulked to keep out water and drafts before winter. We will ensure that your caulking and grout repair in Wilmington is handled by professionals.

Railings, Trim And Hardware

A loose stair railing is a safety problem, not just an annoyance. Our handymen re-secure handrails and newel posts into solid framing, replace missing balusters, and add a handrail where a staircase needs one. Loose or damaged baseboard, door casing, crown and window trim is re-fastened, patched or replaced and made ready for paint. Sagging cabinet doors get their hinges adjusted or replaced, and drawer slides, cabinet pulls and closet doors are fixed so they work smoothly again. Our team is focused on high-quality railing and trim repair across Wilmington.

Hardware Swaps (No Wiring Or Pipes)

Some of the most satisfying repairs are the simplest. Our handymen replace towel bars, toilet paper holders, shower curtain rods, grab bars set into framing, toilet seats, cabinet knobs and pulls, door stops, house numbers and mailboxes. None of this hardware touches wiring or water lines. Battery-powered smoke and carbon monoxide alarms can be mounted where you want them; the U.S. Fire Administration recommends an alarm on every level of the home and in and outside each sleeping area. When you need hardware swaps in Wilmington, our team is ready to help.

All Plumbing And Electrical Work

All plumbing and electrical work goes to licensed trades, however small the job. In Delaware, plumbers are licensed by the Board of Plumbing, Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Examiners and electricians by the Board of Electrical Examiners, both part of the Division of Professional Regulation. A handyman does not take that work on: pipes, water heaters, faucets and drains, and every electrical repair or replacement, from outlets, switches and their cover plates to light fixtures, circuits and panels, belong with a Delaware-licensed plumber or electrician. You can look up any plumber's or electrician's licence on the Division of Professional Regulation website, dpr.delaware.gov. Our team handles the carpentry, patching and finishing around that work, so the wall is repaired and painted once the licensed trade is done. We are committed to keeping minor home repairs in Wilmington clear, simple and reliable.
