Home Repairs in Fenelon Falls, ON

Fixed at the cause.

Since we're in the Fenelon Falls area regularly, a short repair list doesn't have to wait for a big job to justify the trip. That makes home repairs in Fenelon Falls easy to fit in, for year-round households and seasonal waterfront owners alike. It might be a patch where a pipe leaked, an exterior door that no longer latches, a sagging cabinet or trim that's rotted along the bottom. Pedro tracks down the cause before he fixes the symptom.

Repairs for Everyday Houses and Summer Places

Away from the falls and the shops on Colborne Street, Fenelon Falls is a mix of homes people live in every day and waterfront properties used mainly in season, and repairs look different in each. A year-round house wears down through use. Hinges loosen and drywall dents where a chair keeps hitting it. A seasonal place wears down through weather and empty months, and the damage tends to show up all at once when it opens.

Winter damage repairs are a regular part of our spring work around the lakes. Ice and freeze-thaw can lift a threshold, crack drywall where the building moved, or let water in around a window that was fine in the fall. We open up anything that looks water-stained to see how far it goes, replace what's wet or soft, and fix the entry point so it doesn't happen again next year.

It's practical to save up small items and have them done together. If you want a repair handyman who'll take a short list seriously, that's the kind of visit we like. For budgeting, $75 to $200 covers most small fixes, things like a door adjustment or a drywall patch. Water-damaged drywall, subfloor work and window replacements are a step up, usually $200 to $600. Bigger projects get their own quote, written and free.

Pedro handles drywall, door, fixture and water damage repairs. For how he approaches home repairs in general, see our home repairs page.

  2. Assessment and estimate

    Simple repairs can often be quoted over the phone. If it's more involved, Pedro comes out to look at it and gives you a written estimate.

  3. The repair

    We book a time that suits you. Pedro shows up with the tools and materials to finish the job.

  4. Final check

    Every repair gets checked before we leave. If something isn't right, we fix it before we head out the door.

There's a soft spot in the floor by our cottage's back door. Is that a big repair?

It depends on what's underneath. A soft spot near an exterior door usually means water has been getting in at the threshold and the subfloor has started to rot. Caught early, it's a matter of cutting out the damaged section, replacing the subfloor, fixing the threshold and relaying the flooring. If the joists below are affected, the job grows, and we'll show you before quoting.

A pipe leaked under our sink while the cottage was closed. What needs fixing after the plumber's been?

The cabinet floor usually takes the worst of it, and once it has swollen it won't flatten again. We cut out and replace the damaged panel, check the floor underneath, and replace anything that's gone soft. If the water reached a wall, we open it up far enough to make sure nothing behind it stays wet before we close it back in.
