Property managers live and die by turn time and vendor reliability. A unit that sits costs rent every day, and a maintenance vendor who no-shows costs a lot more than the ticket. As a property maintenance company serving Houston property managers, we're built for that reality: apartment turns and make-readies scheduled to a date, tenant repairs handled in occupied units without drama, and one point of contact across drywall, paint, flooring, doors, and fencing so you're not coordinating five trades for one make-ready.

What we cover for property managers

Make-readies and turns: paint, flooring, drywall, doors and hardware, blinds, fixtures, and the punch list that gets a unit rent-ready.

Tenant repair tickets: the day-to-day repairs in occupied units β€” drywall, doors that won't latch, flooring, trim, fixture swaps, fence and gate repair.

Common areas and exterior: hallways, laundry and amenity rooms, stairwells, fencing and gates, soffit and fascia, pressure washing, and bollard repair.

Punch and deferred maintenance: working down a backlog list across a property in one mobilization instead of a trip per item.

We self-perform these trades, so a mixed ticket doesn't become a scheduling puzzle.

Multi-family maintenance and apartment turns

Apartment turns are a deadline business, and consistency is what keeps them predictable. As an apartment turn contractor we run turns on a common spec β€” the same LVP color, the same paint, the same hardware across units β€” so a damaged room later gets swapped without matching problems and without re-flooring a whole unit.

We work each turn to its ready-by date, because a unit that's a week late is a week of lost rent.

One vendor for property managers

The reason this work comes back to us is simple: one call covering drywall, paint, flooring, doors, and fencing beats coordinating five separate vendors for the same unit. Being the vendor for property managers who'd rather manage properties than chase subs is most of the job.

When a repair turns out to be bigger than the ticket said, we tell you rather than surprising you with it.

Tenant repairs in occupied units

Occupied-unit work is a different job than a vacant turn. There's a tenant with a schedule, belongings to protect, and an expectation that the repair gets done right the first time so you're not sending someone back. As a tenant repair contractor we schedule around access, protect the space, and handle the common tickets β€” drywall and ceilings, doors and locks, flooring, trim, fixtures, and fence and gate repair.

When a ticket points at something larger β€” a soft spot that means subfloor, a stain that means an active leak β€” we tell you what's actually going on instead of patching over it and getting a repeat call in a month.

What we don't do

We self-perform carpentry, drywall, flooring, paint, doors and hardware, and fencing. We don't do heavy electrical β€” new circuits, panel work, rewiring β€” or HVAC systems, and we don't do mold remediation, which requires a state license in Texas.

Swapping a light fixture or ceiling fan for an existing one is within scope; running new power isn't. Being straight about that up front is part of being a reliable vendor β€” you always know what we'll handle and what needs a specialist.

How we price property maintenance

Tenant tickets and defined repairs price flat when the scope is known and hourly when it isn't. Make-readies are quoted per unit on a scope you can standardize, so a one-bed turn is a known number.

What moves the number: the condition units come back in, how much flooring and paint each turn needs, occupied versus vacant, and how many tickets bundle into one visit. Standardizing finishes lowers both turn cost and future touch-up cost. Estimates are free and we break out the line items.

Frequently asked questions

Can you do apartment turns on a deadline?

Yes β€” turns on a ready-by date are core to what we do. We run them on a consistent spec and work to the ready-by date so units don't sit and lose rent.

Can you be our single maintenance vendor?

That's most of our property-management work. We self-perform drywall, paint, flooring, doors, and fencing, so one call covers a mixed list instead of coordinating several vendors for the same unit.

Do you handle tenant repair tickets in occupied units?

Yes. We schedule around tenant access, protect the space, and handle the common tickets β€” drywall, doors and locks, flooring, trim, fixtures, and fence repair β€” and flag when a ticket points at something bigger.

What's included in a make-ready?

Typically paint, flooring, drywall repair, doors and hardware, blinds, fixtures, and a punch list to get the unit rent-ready. We quote per unit on a scope you can standardize.

Do you do electrical or HVAC?

No. New circuits, panel work, and HVAC systems are outside our scope, and we don't do mold remediation. We self-perform carpentry, drywall, flooring, paint, doors, and fencing, and swap fixtures for existing ones.
