"We used McLennan Contracting to repair some water damage in our kitchen. They were very helpful through the process, easy to work with, and their workers were very skilled, clean, and knowledgable. Our kitchen looks fantastic and no evidence that any damage ever occurred, and they saved us money which was a suprise bonus. We will use them again for any home repair needs!"

How long do home repairs typically take?
Most home repair projects are completed within a day or two, depending on the scope of work.
Smaller tasks, like fixing a leaky faucet or adjusting a door, may take only a few hours.
Larger repairs, such as drywall patching that requires drying time, may take multiple visits.
Do I need to supply materials for my repair project?
For most home repairs, we source the necessary materials to ensure quality and compatibility. Before any repair project, we visit the home to ensure that we will have the proper materials in hand to begin your repairs.
However, if you have specific materials you'd like us to use—such as a particular brand of fixtures or trim—just let us know, and we’ll incorporate them into the project.
Do I need to be home during the repair work?
It is very helpful for homeowners to be present the first day as we are getting started. After that, a lock box can be placed and used by our team and trade partners. If you can’t be home for the entire duration, we can coordinate a plan that works for everyone.
What should I do before my scheduled repair work begins?
To ensure a smooth repair process, we recommend:
- Clearing the work area to give our team easy access.
- Securing pets in another room if noise or open doors could be an issue.
- Letting us know about any special considerations.
We’ll handle the rest!
What’s the difference between home repair and remodeling?
Home repair focuses on fixing, maintaining, or improving existing features in your home, such as repairing drywall, adjusting doors, or replacing fixtures. Remodeling, on the other hand, involves major updates or structural changes, such as redesigning a kitchen, finishing a basement, or reconfiguring a bathroom layout.
If your project requires more than basic repairs, our remodeling services may be a better fit. We can help determine the best solution based on your goals.
How much do home repairs cost?
The cost of home repair services varies based on the complexity of the work and materials needed.
We request a fee to come out to your home to assess the project. After collecting all the necessary information, we provide an estimate upfront so you know what to expect. Our team ensures transparency in pricing and helps prioritize repairs to fit your budget.
Do you offer emergency repair services?
We do not provide emergency repairs for urgent issues like burst pipes or electrical failures.
It is also important to note, we do not handle insurance claims.
However, for non-emergency repairs, we’re happy to schedule a service visit as soon as possible. If you have a time-sensitive issue, we recommend contacting a specialist for immediate assistance.
Can you handle multiple repair tasks in one visit?
Yes! If you have a list of small repairs, we can often tackle multiple tasks during a single visit. This is a great way to maximize efficiency and minimize disruption to your daily routine. Let us know what you need, and we’ll create a plan to address everything efficiently.
Why should I choose McLennan Contracting for home repair services?
At McLennan Contracting, we bring the same level of professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail to home repairs as we do to our full-scale remodeling projects.
Our team is experienced, reliable, and dedicated to providing high-quality work with clear communication and respect for your home. Whether you need a single repair or multiple fixes, we ensure the job is done right the first time.
