About general home repair in Gig Harbor

Gig Harbor is a waterfront city across the Narrows from Tacoma with a mix of older harbor-area homes and many newer neighborhoods.

Newer Gig Harbor homes tend to need punch-list items and fixture swaps, which suit hourly work well, and we can quote a flat price for a defined list.

A $79 diagnosis is credited toward any job when we do the work, so a look at a problem you are unsure about does not cost extra if you go ahead.

Homes near the water can see more corrosion on exposed fittings, and we point it out when we see it.
