Local housing

Repairs that fit local houses

Half of the homes in White Marsh were built before 1986, which tells us a lot about what breaks first. About 39% of homes were built between 1980 and 1999, so many are due for new flooring, updated fixtures and deck work. White Marsh grew around the White Marsh Mall area from the 1970s on, with many townhomes and single-family neighborhoods.

Detached homes make up about 52% of the housing here, with 24% townhomes, so we see everything from drywall patches to deck and fence work. About 71% of homes are owner-occupied, and the median home value is $369,200, so most owners want repairs done once and done right.

Jobs we see most in White Marsh

  1. 01

    Deck boards, railings and stairs

    Loose balusters and soft deck stairs are safety issues, not just cosmetic ones. We check framing and ledger connections, replace rotted pieces, and bring railings back to a solid, even height. Decks around White Marsh built in the 1980s are hitting the age where boards and railings fail.

  2. 02

    Storm-damaged fencing

    After a storm, we often get calls for fence sections knocked down by wind or limbs. We rebuild the damaged run to match the rest of the fence and square up gates so they latch again. Fence repairs in White Marsh often follow spring and fall storms.

  3. 03

    Fixture and light swaps

    Dripping faucets, running toilets and dated light fixtures are quick wins. We replace faucets, toilets and vanity lights, swap outlets and switches like-for-like, and install ceiling fans on existing boxes. In local homes built around 1986, original faucets and lights are often worn out.
