"Carl is my goto handy person and painter. As a Realtor, I rely on a trustworthy person to get odd jobs done quickly. We don't have time in many deals to get multiple bids, which I am never concerned with as Carl always let's us know beforehand if a job is going to be more expensive and complicated than we may have thought. There are never surprises once the job is completed...and he always completes his job in a timely manner."

"Carl Hencke was friendly, responsive, and arrived on-time for both the estimate and the job (2 X door-jam repair/replace and 2 X door hang). He explained everything clearly, his rate was reasonable, he doesn't mark-up for materials, shows all receipts, finished when he said he would, and did a great job. You simply can't ask for better than that. I will definitely use his services again."

Home Repair on Kirkwoods Older Homes

Working on older homes requires a unique set of knowledge and skills. due to their distinct characteristics, construction methods, and the passage of time. These homes possess a historical charm that often appeals to homeowners and preservationists, but they also present challenges that demand a deeper understanding of their structure, materials, and maintenance needs.

One of the primary reasons why working on older homes requires more knowledge is their varied architectural styles and building techniques. Throughout history, different construction methods and materials were used, reflecting the architectural trends and available resources of their time. Restoring or renovating an older home requires familiarity with these techniques to ensure that any modifications are in line with the original design intent and structural integrity. Understanding the intricacies of older architectural styles, such as Victorian, Craftsman, or Colonial, is crucial when preserving or replicating specific features or details.

Another factor that adds complexity to working on older homes is the deterioration that occurs over time. Materials used in construction, such as wood, plaster, or masonry, can degrade due to exposure to weather, pests, or simple wear and tear. An experienced professional must possess knowledge of traditional materials and their properties to address issues such as rot, water damage, insect infestations, or settling foundations. They must also be skilled in assessing the structural stability of an older home and implementing appropriate measures to reinforce weakened elements.

Furthermore, working on older homes often involves navigating outdated infrastructure systems. Electrical and plumbing systems, for example, may not comply with current building codes and standards, requiring careful evaluation and upgrades to ensure safety and functionality. Professionals working on these homes must be well-versed in both contemporary and historical building codes to strike a balance between preserving the home’s character and meeting modern standards.
