Local housing

What local homes need now

The median year built in Annapolis is 1975. That puts most houses at the age where doors, floors, trim and decks start asking for attention. Roughly 23% of the houses date from the 1980s and 1990s. Original carpet, builder faucets and aging decks are common on our lists here. Annapolis is Maryland's capital, where historic downtown rowhouses sit a few miles from waterfront neighborhoods and newer suburban streets.

The housing mix matters too: 40% of homes are detached, 25% are townhomes and 34% are in apartment or condo buildings, so HOA rules and shared walls shape a lot of our work. Owner-occupancy runs about 62% and the median value is $548,900. That is a lot of equity to protect with steady maintenance.

What local homeowners call us for

  1. 01

    Plaster cracks and patchy walls

    Pre-war and early post-war homes in Annapolis tend to show hairline and stair-step cracks in original plaster. Rather than covering them with thick caulk, we open the crack, reinforce it, and float the patch flat so it does not come back after the next humid summer. Roughly 29% of local houses were built before 1960, so we see this weekly.

  2. 02

    Worn carpet and damaged flooring

    High-traffic rooms wear out first. We replace damaged planks, fix squeaks from below where possible, and install new luxury vinyl plank that stands up to kids, pets and spills. With 62% of local homes owner-occupied and many rooms still on original floors, this is steady work.

  3. 03

    Townhome and condo repairs

    Townhomes and condos come with rules about exterior colors, doors, decks and working hours. We confirm what your association requires before we order materials, and keep work inside your unit quiet and clean for the neighbors. With 25% townhomes in Annapolis, HOA paperwork is part of many jobs.
