Residential repairs
TrueBuilt handles focused repairs, correction work, and combined punch lists with a clear plan for what is—and is not—included.
What we can discuss
The right plan depends on the existing condition, access, materials, priorities, and how connected work should be handled. We start by understanding those details.
What to expect
Most people call about one thing and mention four more once someone is standing there. Grouping them is genuinely cheaper: a large share of the cost of a small repair is getting a person, a truck, and the right materials to your address. Once that has happened, the marginal cost of the next item on the list is mostly labour.
So send the list you have been keeping. The sticking door, the rotted trim board, the loose step, the cabinet that will not stay shut, the towel bar nobody ever remounted. A single visit with eight items scheduled properly beats four visits with two.
Interior and exterior trim and finish carpentry, doors that stick or will not latch, rotted fascia and exterior trim boards, steps and handrails, flooring transitions, cabinet and hardware adjustment, drywall patching and repair, and the general category of things that got damaged, worn out, or were never finished correctly.
We also take correction work—jobs another contractor left incomplete or did in a way that did not hold. There is no awkwardness in that; tell us what happened and what you want the end result to be.
Some repairs are just repairs. Others are a house telling you something. Doors that suddenly bind across one side of the home, cracks that reopen after being patched, floors that have developed a slope, and trim that separates in the same place every year are usually movement, not carpentry.
Patching those hides the symptom and guarantees the call comes back. When we see that pattern we will say so and tell you which trade should look at it first, even when it means the job we were called for is not the job that should happen. Water is the same story: a stain is a leak until proven otherwise, and closing a wall over an active leak is expensive.
For urgent repairs, calling or texting is faster than the form—the number reaches a mobile phone directly. We will be straight with you about whether we can get there quickly, because a fast honest no is more useful than a slow maybe when water is involved.
We will also tell you when the first call should be to someone else. Active plumbing leaks, electrical faults, gas smells, and significant water intrusion need the right trade or a restoration company before repair work makes sense.
Small work still gets a written scope listing each item, what is included, and what is excluded. That is what makes it possible to add or drop items without a disagreement about price later. Photos sent up front help a lot—wide shots first, then close-ups, so we can see the setting and not just the damage.
Availability depends on location, access, and how the work groups with what is already scheduled nearby. Distance affects whether a very small job is practical on its own, which is another reason grouping helps.
A clearer project
We make room for questions, surface tradeoffs, and document the agreed responsibilities so you can make a confident decision.

We talk through priorities, material choices, constraints, timing, and connected work.
The agreed work and project-specific responsibilities are put in writing.
Plan with better context
Common questions
Yes. We consider small jobs and combined punch lists based on location, access, and the work involved.
For a lot of what people call handyman work, effectively yes—doors that stick, rotted trim, loose steps, a failing deck board, the list that has been building for a year. Grouping several small repairs into one visit is usually cheaper and easier to schedule than calling about them one at a time.
Call or text 940-255-6343 rather than using the form—it reaches a mobile phone directly. We will be straight with you about whether we can get there quickly or whether the situation needs a plumber, electrician, or restoration company first.
Yes. Optional photos in the estimate form help us understand the condition before we follow up.
We generally consider projects within about 100 driving miles of Justin. Location, scope, timing, and project fit all affect availability.
