The small things that make a house work properly again. Most repair visits cover several items at once, which keeps the cost per job down.

A small crew that treats your home like our own
Harbor started with one carpenter and a van. We’ve stayed small on purpose, so the person who quotes your job is the person who shows up to do it.
We show up when we say
Two-hour arrival windows, a text when we’re on the way, and a call if anything changes.
The price is in writing
Itemized quotes, and nothing extra without your OK first. If we find a surprise behind the wall, we stop and talk.
Your home stays protected
Drop cloths, shoe covers, and dust barriers as standard. Furniture goes back where it was.
We clean up every day
Tools packed, debris gone, and a vacuum run before we leave, even on multi-day jobs.

Handles seasonal checkups and keeps every site spotless.
1YEAR
Our workmanship guarantee
If something we fixed or built fails within a year because of how we did it, we come back and make it right at no charge. Fully insured, with certificates available on request.
