Mount Vernon and the surrounding areas

Nine kinds of repair, sorted by where they sit on the house

Start at the ridge and work down. Shingles and gutters first, then the siding and paint, then the deck and the fence out back, then the rooms inside. Pick the wall or the room that is giving you trouble and open its page.

One thing to know before you call: the Mount Vernon Handyman is a referral line. Your request is passed to the local handyman company we work with in the Mount Vernon area, and they do the work. You get an estimate before anything starts.

Roofline

Where the Skagit rain lands first

A shingle roof with a patch of new shingles and a new gutter, wet from rain

Roof Repair

Lifted or missing shingles, leaks around flashing and vents, and gutter lines that spill.

Open the Roof Repair page

A lifted shingle rarely announces itself. The first sign is usually a brown ring on a ceiling or a gutter that drops water down the siding.

Describe what you can see from the ground and send a photo if you can. The estimate is built from a visit, not from guesswork.

Outside walls

The skin of the house takes the weather

Decks and fences sit in wet air all winter

New builds in wood, composite, vinyl or chain link, and repairs to what is already standing: soft boards, loose railings, leaning posts, broken pickets.

Inside

Four jobs live indoors, and they often share a visit

A dripping faucet, a patched wall and a dead light fixture are three separate repairs and one phone call. Put every item on the same request and say which room each one is in.

Water heater work and electrical work need the right licensed trades behind them, so ask the partner company about that when they give you the estimate.

Plumbing

Leaky faucets, clogged drains and toilets, new sinks and fixtures, water heater installs and repairs, low water pressure.
