What we do

General repair and maintenance for homeowners and property managers. Don't see your job? Ask. If it's not ours, we'll say so.

Move-Out Inspections

Room-by-room checklist with photos of everything that needs repair, cleaning or prep before the next tenant, plus a written report and a priced estimate, so you can settle the deposit and approve the turn in one pass.

Rental Turnovers

Repairs plus pre-rental cleaning on one work order, so the unit is ready to list.

Doors & Locks

Slabs, prehung doors, hinges, weatherstrip and rekeyable locks, so the next tenant change is a rekey, not new hardware.

Drywall Repair

Doorknob holes to full patches, smooth or textured, finished and ready for paint.

Trim & Carpentry

Baseboard, casing, crown and the small carpentry that makes a room look finished.

Custom Millwork

Built-ins, shelving, mantels, wainscoting and custom cabinetry, built with the precision of yacht cabinetry.

Flooring

Hardwood, LVP and linoleum, installed or repaired.

Decks & Stairs

Rotted boards, loose railings and wobbly treads, repaired or rebuilt so they're solid, safe and look right.

Fence Repair

Storm damage, leaning posts, broken pickets and gates that won't latch.

Meet Bob

I'm Bob Bowker. I bring Marine Corps discipline and real craftsmanship to your property. After years of building custom cabinetry for multimillion-dollar yachts, where every fraction of an inch mattered, I now bring that same precision to home repairs and property turnovers.

Homeowners call me for the repairs they don't have time for. Property managers count on me for fast, fully documented turnovers with photos on every job. Either way, you get a straight answer and a fair price, and when the job's done, I leave your place as clean or cleaner than I found it.
