Home Repair and General Maintenance

Owning a home is a source of great pride, but it also comes with a never-ending to-do list. Just when you fix one thing, it seems like two more demand your attention. At David L Rogers Construction, we understand that life is busy and that you might not have the time, the tools, or the desire to spend your weekends tackling repairs. We are here to bridge the gap between the small handyman tasks and the larger structural fixes. Dave Lawrence Rogers believes that no job is too small to be done right. Whether you are dealing with a hole in the drywall, a rotting deck board, or a door that just won’t close properly, we bring the same level of professionalism and care to these repairs as we do to building a custom home.

One of the most important aspects of home repair is addressing small issues before they spiral into major disasters. A small water stain on the ceiling might seem like a cosmetic annoyance, but it often signals a leak that could be rotting your framing or causing mold growth behind the scenes. We specialize in diagnosing the root cause of the problem. We don’t just patch the symptom; we investigate why it happened to ensure it doesn’t happen again. From fixing leaky faucets that drive up your water bill to repairing damaged siding that lets pests in, our proactive approach saves you money and stress in the long run.

Wood rot is a common enemy for homeowners, especially around exterior trim, window sills, and door frames. We have extensive experience in identifying and repairing dry rot and termite damage. Instead of just painting over the problem, we surgically remove the damaged wood and replace it with new, treated lumber or durable composite materials that resist future decay. We then seal, prime, and paint the area so seamless that you will never know there was a repair. This attention to detail preserves the structural integrity of your home and keeps it looking fresh and well-maintained.

Drywall and plaster repairs are another frequent request. Maybe a doorknob punched a hole in the wall, or perhaps you had a plumbing leak that required cutting into the ceiling. Patching drywall is an art form; if done poorly, it stands out like a sore thumb. Our team is skilled in texture matching, ensuring that the repaired area blends perfectly with the surrounding wall. We handle everything from small patches to replacing entire sheets, and we take great care to minimize dust in your home during the sanding process.

Doors and windows often settle over time, leading to drafts, sticking, or latching issues. We can adjust hinges, plane down sticking edges, replace weatherstripping, and repair broken hardware. These small adjustments can make a huge difference in your home’s energy efficiency and your daily comfort. If a window or door is beyond repair, we can handle the full replacement, ensuring the new unit is plumb, level, and properly sealed against the elements.

We also assist with “aging in place” modifications. As families change, the home needs to adapt. We can install grab bars in bathrooms, widen doorways for wheelchair access, build wheelchair ramps, or install easier-to-grip door handles. These repairs and modifications allow you or your loved ones to stay in the home safely and comfortably for as long as possible. We approach these projects with sensitivity and a focus on safety standards.

Flooring repairs are also within our wheelhouse. Whether it is a cracked tile in the kitchen, a scratched hardwood plank, or loose laminate, we can often repair the specific area without needing to replace the entire floor. We carefully source matching materials and use precise techniques to restore the look of your flooring.

Many of our clients accumulate a list of minor annoyances—loose cabinet hinges, a wobbly banister, a broken fence slat—that they just learn to live with. We encourage you to hand that list over to us. We can schedule a service visit to knock out multiple repairs in one go. It is incredibly satisfying to come home to a house where everything works exactly as it should.

At David L Rogers Construction, we pride ourselves on reliability. We show up when we say we will, we provide clear and honest estimates, and we clean up after ourselves. We treat your home with respect, wearing boot covers and protecting your furniture. Home repair is not just about fixing broken things; it is about maintaining the value and safety of your biggest investment. Let Dave Lawrence Rogers and our team take the burden of home maintenance off your shoulders so you can get back to enjoying your weekends.
