GET COMPLETE Maintenance and Repair views maintenance and repair from a unique perspective, not just through the eyes of a single trade like a plumber or electrician, but as a property owner. Combined, we have spent more than 80 years managing and maintaining property, dealing with thousands of service vendors. GET COMPLETE Maintenance and Repair evolved out of a desire to have a one-stop maintenance, repair and construction solution that delivers all the service "positives" from a life-time of experiences. These include a professional service that is reliable, arrives on-time, never "no shows", pays attention to detail, respects your property, communicates well and provides proof of service--all at a reasonable price. The sort of company that we would call for our own property repairs and eagerly refer to someone else. Our goal is simple--to make sure your issue gets fixed and you are happy with our service to call us again!

"Extremely fast service. Posted on Angie at 8:30, job was complete by 11. I appreciated they took pictures of the problem and repair as I was not on site. Very professional."

"Elliott did an amazing job! We were looking for a kitchen demo and new drywall so we could have cabinets installed. Elliott was very thorough with his assessment of the room and made sure the job was done right. He notified us of problems he found along the way and managed to keep us in our budget.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
