How We Improve Local Homes
Your Questions About Handyman Services in Lake Zurich
Clear answers to the most common questions homeowners ask about repairs and upgrades.
No. Many of our projects are in Lake Zurich, but we regularly help homeowners in surrounding areas like Kildeer, Deer Park, Long Grove, Barrington, Hawthorn Woods, and Vernon Hills.
The cost depends on the type and size of the project. Small jobs like fixture replacement are typically lower, while larger improvements take more time and budget. We always discuss pricing upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
Absolutely. We offer free, no-obligation estimates so you can make a decision with full clarity before any work begins.
In many cases we can come out the same day, and most appointments are available within a few days. Our goal is to handle repairs quickly so issues don’t get worse over time.
We gladly take on both. From minor fixes like a dripping faucet to full-room upgrades, our handyman team helps Lake Zurich homeowners with jobs of any size.
Yes — every project comes with our workmanship guarantee. That means repairs and installations are completed properly and built to last.
It’s completely up to you. We can pick up the right supplies for the job, or work with materials you already have on hand.
We provide a complete range of services, including floor leveling, old tile removal, waterproofing, and baseboard installation. Our goal is to ensure the surface is perfectly prepped before the new tile goes down. We take pride in handling every phase of the project, guaranteeing exceptional results.
Benefit: You won’t need to juggle multiple contractors – we handle everything!
We can install any brand of tile you prefer.
However, we are also happy to recommend high-quality, reliable brands that have proven to be durable in our experience

Pricing depends on project complexity and tile type.
On average, tile installation ranges from $15 to $25 per square foot. We offer free on-site estimates to give you an accurate final cost, with clear pricing and no hidden fees.
Typically, tile needs 24–48 hours to dry. We advise avoiding heavy traffic during this time and holding off on using the area until the grout has fully cured, which can take up to 72 hours. After that, your tile will be ready for normal use.
We start with a thorough assessment of the surface condition before beginning any work. If we come across unforeseen problems, such as hidden damage or structural defects, we discuss solutions with you right away and get your approval for any additional work needed. Our expertise allows us to handle these challenges efficiently and maintain a high standard of quality.
