Home repair in Anne Arundel County, MD
Anne Arundel is water on three sides, and the houses show it. Trim rots at the bottom of door casings, deck boards cup, and exterior caulk gives up a few years sooner than it does inland. A lot of our calls from Severna Park, Arnold and Edgewater start with a soft spot someone found with a thumb.
Or call or text (240) 858-0149. Hours 8 to 6, Monday through Saturday.
Rot, salt air and the historic district
Inland, Crofton and Odenton are 90s and 2000s subdivisions coming due for their first real round of repairs, and Glen Burnie has solid post war homes that just need the usual doors, drywall and paint. Annapolis adds the historic district, where an exterior change needs approval before anyone picks up a tool.
Wood rot near the water almost never stops at the piece you can see. When we open a rotted door jamb in Annapolis, we check the sill, the subfloor edge and the sheathing behind it before we write the price, so the estimate covers the real repair instead of the visible inch.

Anne Arundel questions
- My exterior trim is soft. Is that a replace or a fill job?
- If a screwdriver sinks in more than a quarter inch, the piece gets replaced, usually in PVC or primed cedar so it does not happen again. Small surface rot on an otherwise sound board can be treated and filled. We tell you which on site.
- Do you handle Annapolis historic district approvals?
- For exterior work inside the district we tell you what needs a review, and we do like for like repairs that stay within what the commission allows. Anything that changes the look of the house goes to the homeowner for approval before we schedule.
- Do you work on waterfront decks and docks?
- Decks yes, repairs and board replacement. Docks and piers are a marine contractor job and we will say so rather than take it.
