Des Moines is a Puget Sound waterfront city with a marina, hillside homes and a mix of mid-century and newer housing.
Mid-century homes around Des Moines commonly need a mix of small fixes, and we price the whole list for you before we start.
Des Moines homes on the bluff and near the water can be on slopes with long sewer runs, and salt air is hard on exposed fittings.
