Takoma Park houses are old enough to have character and old enough to have earned it. The city was laid out in the 1880s as a Victorian commuter suburb, and much of its housing stock still dates to that era: Queen Annes, bungalows, and Colonial Revivals on narrow, deep lots along hilly gridded streets.

Working on houses like these is different work. Walls are plaster, not drywall. Door frames have settled out of square over a century. Original trim deserves to be repaired, not ripped out. Our crew treats hundred-year-old material with the respect it took a hundred years to earn.
ZIP codes served in this area:
Yes, and it is some of our favorite work. Plaster repair, settled door frames, original trim, and wood windows are normal scope for our crew. We repair in kind rather than tearing out what makes the house what it is.
We patch real plaster with materials made to bond to it. A drywall-mud shortcut over plaster cracks back out within a season, which is usually why the previous patch failed.
Yes. Sticking doors, loose rails, worn weatherstripping, cracked caulk. Older homes produce a steady list, and we work through the whole list in one visit rather than one item at a time.
Interior repairs, no. For exterior changes the district has review standards, and the homeowner manages that approval. What we bring is workmanship that will not embarrass a hundred-year-old house.
ZIP 20912 and the surrounding neighborhoods, along with adjacent Silver Spring. If you are not sure whether an address is in our area, call and we will tell you straight.
Yes. Licensed, bonded, and insured in Maryland, MHIC #112963, with a 1-year workmanship guarantee on our work. The license number sits in the footer of every page on this site.
