What Arvada homes actually need

About 35 minutes northwest of the shop.

Olde Town Arvada and the blocks around it hold the city's oldest housing, some of it well over a century old, while the neighborhoods spreading north and west are largely 1960s through 1980s, and Candelas and West Woods are newer still. Old Arvada properties bring period detail and period problems; the 1970s belt is at the age where decks, fences, and original finishes are all due.

Older housing stock brings its own vocabulary of problems: plaster and lath that cracks differently than drywall, settled door and window openings that are no longer square, painted-shut sashes, and trim profiles that no longer exist at the big-box store.

Big daily temperature swings, sometimes forty degrees between afternoon and dawn, work caulk and sealant loose fast. Exterior joints, hose bibs, and thresholds need attention on a schedule most homeowners do not expect.

Where we spend our time

Work we take on most in Arvada

Historic-property carpentry

Repairing and matching original trim, doors, and detail in older Arvada homes, where replacement parts are not something you pick up off a shelf.

Deck and railing rebuilds

Decks built in the 1970s and 1980s are well past their designed life. Board and joist replacement, railing brought to current spacing, and stair rebuilds that feel solid underfoot.

Interior repair and refresh

Drywall repair, full-room painting, flooring transitions, and the finish work that makes a well-kept older house read as current.

Reviewing project plans and finish samples

Good to know

Questions we get from Arvada homeowners

Do you charge to come out to Arvada?

We quote before we start, and the quote covers the trip. About 35 minutes northwest of the shop. If the job is small, tell us what else is on your list and we will usually price the whole thing together so one visit covers it.

How big does a job have to be?

It does not. We built this business on the jobs other contractors will not return calls about, and we will happily take an afternoon of small repairs. If a running list of little things is what you have, that is an ideal visit for us.

Do you handle commercial work in Arvada?

Yes. Roughly half our work is commercial: retail, offices, restaurants and similar spaces. We schedule around your hours so the work does not cost you business.
