There are a lot of perks of being a homeowner in Dexter, and a couple drawbacks as well—like that long to-do list of repair, maintenance, and improvement tasks that certainly isn't going to take care of itself. From patching drywall and cleaning out the dryer vent to replacing rotting deck boards and repairing rain gutters, it seems like there's always something that needs doing, and it can be very frustrating to work hard all week only to have your sliver of free time eaten up by chores around the house.

It's completely understandable that homeowners procrastinate on nagging repairs and desperately-needed improvements. Most people want to keep their property in top-notch condition, but not everyone is equipped with the right tools and expertise to deal with all those tasks. You need a way to maintain your house so it's looking and functioning at its best, and reserve some free time to actually enjoy the property as well.

Drywall Repair

Drywall is not the most noticeable or exciting building material, so it's not surprising that most people don't give it a second thought—but when it has suffered damage such as holes, cracks, and loose tape, your eyes go straight to the problem area every time you enter the room. Damaged drywall isn't just an unsightly cosmetic issue, though. It can make your home a lot less comfortable and cause your energy costs to increase by allowing warm or cool air to escape inside the walls.

My Handyman's drywall specialists will take care of every part of the repair process, including:

  • Removing old material
  • Drywall patching
  • Sanding
  • Mudding
  • Joint taping
  • Painting & refinishing so the repair is invisible

We can even rehang your framed photos and curtains for the finishing touches! But there's more to it than that, and this is a great reason to hire a drywall repairman. Sometimes you know exactly what caused the damage, but other times it's more of a mystery. If you're not sure what caused the problem, we'll trace the damage to its source and eliminate that as well, so you won’t have to worry about more drywall issues in a few weeks or months.

Dexter Gutter Cleaning & Repair

Do you love climbing a wobbly ladder to scoop handfuls of gross, rotting muck out of your gutters? Most people don't, but it may surprise you to learn that keeping your rain gutters clean and in good condition is critical for avoiding moisture damage to your home.

Normally, your gutters collect all the rainwater that falls on your roof (just one inch of rain on a 1,000-square-foot roof produces about 620 gallons) channeling it safely away from the house where it can't cause any harm. But when they're crammed full of dead leaves, dirt, animal nests, and other debris, all that water has nowhere to go and pours down the exterior of your home instead, causing serious water damage problems from leaky roofs to cracked foundations and everything in between.

My Handyman will get your gutters clean as a whistle, and we can also repair any breaks or weak points while we're up on the ladder. We can even install gutter guards that will help to prevent them from filling up so fast in the future.

Garage Services

When it's time to work on organization and maintenance, the garage is often neglected. Maybe it's because it's such a utilitarian space that is mostly used for storage—but your garage can be a hobby workshop, a home gym, and much more with the help of My Handyman's garage services. You could even find the space to park your car in there! Potential improvements and upgrades to your garage include:

  • Garage door weatherstripping
  • Stair & railing installation
  • Installing & repairing light fixtures
  • Exhaust & ventilation installation
