Hail to the Crown!

No, this is not a tribute to England or anything such as that.  During this busy construction and remodeling season in the DFW area we wanted to spotlight one of the dozens of jobs that we do as well as anyone in the area.  It is the subject of decorating baseboard trim and the intricacies of crown molding. 

It terms of room design it is the cherry on top of the cake.  Crown molding and baseboard trim when done by true professionals give a finished look to a room and can add a decorative element to the overall design of a space.  That pro (or team of pros) will carefully assess the project and apply the right tools and skills so that you will be busting your buttons at the finished product!

The right choice for crown molding and baseboard trim is right here in the Dallas area.  It takes just one call, that’s all to the remodeling professionals at Home Pro Services.  Chris Dandridge heads up a team of handy folks and remodelers that take pride in every job both large and small.  Call them for an estimate on your project at (214) 886-2236.

Handyman, Handyman, What Makes You Handy?

When it comes to the heavy-duty handyman stuff — serious electrical work, deep plumbing, anything to do with major construction work— we understand why you might want to hire a proven professional company.  Unless you like that Dan Aykroyd character from SNL with his backside hanging out when he bends over!

Seriously, the work of a great company specializing in repair, construction, plumbing, etc. is worth its weight in gold.  Hiring the wrong handyman not only jeopardizes the job, but compromises the worth of your home or business.  There is NO margin for error in trying to save a few bucks.

Home Pro Services to the rescue!  They handle jobs both large and small anywhere around the Dallas Metro and have been doing so for many years to the ultimate satisfaction of home owners and businesses both large and small.  Whatever the task, contact Home Pro Services first and get a quote at (214) 886-2236.

It May be a Mistake to just Call the National Termite Guys.

You know their names and they have built a nationwide reputation for ridding your home of termites, BUT there is one thing missing.  Clean up on aisle one!  That’s right, there is repair and replacement to be considered when eradicating these wood-eating pests.  You may need much more than an exterminator.

What about the structural damage those varmints have done?  Framework, fixtures, wallboard, and trim may well need to be repaired or replaced entirely.  Before you make the call for JUST a termite control company think about the larger ramifications of the project.  Terminate that call and call us first!

We are Home Pro Services.  We work with the pest control people to make sure that the job is done completely.  That means cleaning up and fixing damage done by termites or any other pests that invade homes and businesses in the Dallas area.  Give us a call and see for yourself what a difference it will make.  That number is (214) 886-2236.

Handyman and Construction Crew Insurance Costs.

You probably just take it for granted.  When a crew or individual shows up at your home or business they are fully insured, right?  Not so fast!  Insurance is an expensive, but necessary part of the construction, repair, and remodeling business.  Everybody needs to feel secure no matter how the job…large or small.  Ahhh, peace of mind.

So, how much is enough?  Licensed contractors are generally required by law to carry a contractor license bond.  However, handymen may not have any legal requirements (depending on the state where they operate.)  Something like this could keep you up at night when knowing the right person or crew for the job.

Well, rest easy, my friends.  At Home Pro Services we are insured up to two million dollars.  That’s right, two large!  There is no project that we cannot tackle successfully, safely, and fully bonded.  That should give everyone in the Dallas Metro great comfort.  For your next job, be it home or office call Home Pro Services at (214) 886-2236.

What is a Project Manager?

If it sounds like an all-encompassing title well, it probably is.  By definition, project management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to specific activities to meet the project requirements.  Essentially, they are responsible for the success or failure of your building project, be it large or small.

Their typical responsibilities are –

1.  Planning, executing, and closing the deal.
2.  Managing a team of committed professionals.
3.  Staying on point with the client to make sure the goals are met.

It is a big and very important job.  There is no one better at it than Chris Dandridge and his team at Home Pro Services.  This is where you find the Dallas area’s best group of construction managers.  Their phone is always answered 24 hours a day/7 days a week.  Begin your next project (big or small) by calling Chris at (214) 886-2236.

The Metroplex.

It is what we call the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.  It is the largest metropolitan area in the Lone Star State with over 6 million residents.  For nearly each and every one of those citizens there is a home or office with which they are associated.  Where do those people turn when they need construction or handyman projects?

Dallas/Ft. Worth continues to grow.  Projected growth over the next decade or so is huge.  Big D “ain’t goin’ away!  There will be major construction of roadways, waterways, infrastructure, etc.  Based on projections, our ten-county area will grow to a population base of over nine million people living in households by 2030.

Mike Eastland, CEO of the North Central Texas Council of Governments said, “It’s going to take a lot of creative thought and almost a futurist mind to make sure we are able to accommodate (the growth)”.  Home Pro Services and CEO Chris Dandridge are ready for the expansion.  Whenever you need construction or handy work done in the Metroplex contact them at (214) 886-2236.  We are big enough, yet personal enough to handle most any job.

Repairing Water Damage.

Just in case you think that you are immune to it, ask one of your friends in Houston what recovering from water damage is like.  It is not only devastating from an aesthetic standpoint, but it will create chaos in your home or office and, don’t forget the mold and mildew that will probably occur in the aftermath.

The first thing that must be done is assess the damage.  After that, damaged materials must be removed from the area.  There are, framework, fixtures, paint, etc. that need attention ASAP before the mold takes over.  The only good news, if there is any, is that a real professional team can restore your environment to look better than it ever has!

One team…one job…one result…that is the answer!  We are the water damage repair specialists in the Dallas area known as Home Pro Services.  I am Chris Dandridge and I am proud to manage this team.  Let us get your home or office back to new.  If water damage is your dilemma, please give us a call at (214) 886-2236.
