How it Works
Repair
From minor handyman tasks to larger maintenance and repair issues, ET’s will treat your project with care.
We follow the same process of inspection, planning, communication and execution for every job. We stay in touch through completion.
We’re here to serve! How can we help?
Inspect
We inspect acute problems before we start working so we can fix it right the first time. This means listening to your explanation of what’s wrong and why it bothers you. We’ll look at pictures you have and head out to your house to inspect in person if needed. It’s important to have a correct diagnosis so that our repair plan addresses the real problem with the right tools.
Plan
Before we show up with our tools, we create a plan. Founded by a project manager, ET’s creates a detailed strategy that accounts for materials, workflow, team assignments, budget and schedule for bigger projects like roofing, painting, countertops and anything else you don’t want to take on yourself. Leave the headaches to the pros
Repair
We complete every repair in accordance with our standards and processes: We respect you, your home, ourselves and our industry. We are trustworthy and honor the agreements we make with you. We are reliable and use durable materials, high-pigment paints and professional techniques so that you can count on our repairs for years to come.

I already started the job myself but I think I need help!
Will ET’s work on partially completed projects? Yes!
Whether you got too busy or you’re in over your head, sometimes it’s better to bring in the experts. Use the Make an Appointment link to tell us about the status of your job and what you need finished. We will discuss your situation with you, inspect the current repair progress in a virtual or in-person inspection, and create a plan for how to get it done quickly and safely.
