Proactive Home Maintenance Services in Olympia
Preserve Your Investment

Our home maintenance contracts include comprehensive care tailored to Olympia's climate. Regular quarterly inspections cover roofing, siding, drainage systems, and structural wood components. Minor repair labor is included for items like loose trim, small drywall repairs, caulking, and weatherstripping—we fix small issues before they become expensive emergencies. Seasonal tasks include gutter cleaning (critical in our rainy climate), HVAC filter checks, deck and fence inspections, and moisture control assessments. You receive detailed property reports after each visit documenting conditions and work performed. Contract members get priority scheduling for larger repairs and discounted rates on additional services. Contracts are customized based on your home's age, size, and specific needs.

Yes, maintenance plans are valuable even for newer homes in Olympia. Early detection of settling issues, foundation movement, or construction defects is critical while builder warranties are still active. New homes often have landscaping settling that affects drainage—we catch these issues before water intrusion occurs. Regular inspections help you maintain manufacturer warranties on roofing, siding, and mechanical systems by documenting proper care. Newer homes also benefit from seasonal adjustments as materials acclimate to our wet climate. Most importantly, consistent maintenance from day one maximizes resale value—buyers pay premium prices for homes with documented professional care. Starting a maintenance plan early establishes good habits and prevents the deferred maintenance that plagues many Pacific Northwest homes.

Monthly home maintenance service costs in Olympia range from $150 to $450 per month depending on home size and service level. Our tiered pricing includes: Basic Plan ($150-200/month) for homes under 2,000 sq ft with quarterly inspections and minor repairs; Standard Plan ($250-350/month) for 2,000-3,500 sq ft homes with monthly check-ins and seasonal services; Premium Plan ($400-450/month) for larger estates or homes with complex features like multiple decks, extensive landscaping, or historic components. We also offer flat-rate per-visit options ($125-175 per quarterly visit) for those who prefer pay-as-you-go. Most clients save 20-30% over time compared to emergency repair costs. All plans include detailed property reports and priority scheduling for urgent repairs.

Our seasonal maintenance checklist is specifically designed for Washington's wet climate. Fall (September-November): Gutter and downspout cleaning, roof inspection for loose shingles, trim and caulk inspection around windows/doors, deck and fence treatment before winter rains. Winter (December-February): Pipe insulation checks, indoor moisture control, emergency storm damage response, heating system maintenance. Spring (March-May): Deck and siding power washing, exterior paint touch-ups, drainage system verification, spring gutter cleaning. Summer (June-August): Deck staining/sealing, window maintenance, exterior wood repair, irrigation system checks. Each visit includes documentation with photos and recommendations for upcoming repairs. This proactive approach prevents the moisture damage, rot, and mold issues that plague homes in our 50+ inches of annual rainfall.

Absolutely. Homes with documented professional maintenance sell faster and command higher prices in Olympia's competitive market. Buyers value proof of professional care—our detailed maintenance records show the home has been properly maintained, reducing buyer concerns about hidden problems. Many of our clients transfer their maintenance history to buyers, providing peace of mind and justifying premium pricing. Well-maintained homes photograph better for listings, show cleaner during open houses, and pass inspections with fewer issues. Home inspectors specifically note professionally maintained features in their reports. Real estate agents frequently tell us that homes with active maintenance contracts receive higher appraisals and face fewer last-minute repair negotiations. The investment in preventive maintenance returns 2-3x when you sell.

Yes, contract members receive priority response for emergency repairs. While we don't offer 24/7 emergency service for all situations, we provide same-day or next-day response for urgent issues like water intrusion, structural damage from storms, failed heating systems in winter, and significant wood rot discovered during inspections. Contract members have a direct phone line and text contact for urgent situations—you're not waiting in a general service queue. For true emergencies outside business hours (major leaks, structural failures), we provide temporary mitigation guidance and schedule immediate follow-up. Many emergencies are prevented entirely through our regular inspections—we identify and fix vulnerable areas before storms or cold snaps cause damage. This proactive approach means our contract clients rarely experience true emergency situations.

All maintenance work is performed by our in-house master craftsmen—licensed, insured, and background-checked professionals. You work with the same team consistently, so they become familiar with your home's unique characteristics and history. Unlike property management companies that use random subcontractors, we maintain direct control over quality and consistency. Our team includes specialists in finish carpentry, structural wood repair, and general contracting. Every technician is a W-2 employee of D's Custom Woodworks, not an independent contractor. This means reliable scheduling, consistent quality, and accountability. You have direct communication with the craftsmen working on your home and can request specific team members if you prefer. Our woodworking background means we handle repairs with craftsman-level precision, not handyman shortcuts.

For busy Olympia families, a home concierge service delivers significant time savings and stress reduction. Instead of juggling multiple contractors for different issues, you have a single point of contact for all home maintenance and repairs. We coordinate everything: scheduling, permits, material purchases, and follow-up. Busy professionals often lack time for seasonal tasks like gutter cleaning, deck maintenance, and filter changes—our service handles all of it automatically. The peace of mind is invaluable: you know your home is being cared for by professionals who catch problems early. Many clients tell us the service pays for itself in avoided emergency repairs and the time saved managing home upkeep. For dual-income families, elderly homeowners, or frequent travelers, the convenience and reliability make concierge maintenance essential rather than optional.
