Economy Home Repair is an outstanding company. Kris and his crew of three painter/construction staff did a very profession job on my house. Every detail was attended to. Most of the window frames needed repair and they expertly did the repairs. They thoroughly spray/washed my house prior to the painting and sealed and caulked everywhere that it was needed. The painting was completed very professionally, which included the oil decking on the front and back steps. My house now looks beautiful and like new. My neighbor was raving about how great my house looks with its new coat of paint and the fine white paint on the trim. I was very much surprised when Kris first gave the me the quote for his amount to do the job. It was so much less than I expected it to be, but Kris insisted that it was an equitable amount. Kris was very quick to respond to my initial request on Thumbtack for the painting job. He contacted me right away. The whole painting job was completed in four days and all the ground around the house was cleaned up of work debris. Kris’ Economy Home Repair did a great job on my house and I am very happy with the result.

Kris, Tugo and team painted the exterior of our home, poured concrete around the home to fill the vegetation against the house, replaced fence posts screwed into the stucco and replaced them with metal posts cemented in the ground, made a fence, patched old stucco, prepped the house for elastomeric, painted the trim with immense detail, and painted the floors around the perimeter. I am so pleased with the outcome of the craftsmanship and attention to detail. Kris and his team put an amazing amount of effort into making my home beautiful. Thank you so much for the amazing work.

Great job to the entire team we drive up to our home which feels like a new house! We originally requested a quote to for exterior house painting with siding removal. At that time we were also looking to do a back deck install with sliding door, replace a large picture window, and fix our retaining wall. EHR quoted all projects with phases and got back to us right away. We checked out their references and found out that our neighbor down the street was one of EHR's clients. We saw what was done on our neighbors place, who highly recommended EHR! We hired EHR and they began the retaining wall first installing a French Drain in December. This took about 3 full days because of the rain. The project for the sliding door, window and deck was over a week. The house prep and painting about 5-6 days off and on. There was about 2 days for touching up and cleanup. The work was not completed with consecutive days because of weather conditions and product ordering time. One needs to keep this in mind if they are planning a project with multiple components! It took us some time to pick our door and window, house paint colors and decking material. We went with Timber Tech and LOVE it! The craftsmanship and details of our deck is stellar and I believe that we have the most professional looking deck on the block! Not to mention some really modern cool colors on our house! Thanks for trusting in the orange and letting us add just a little more! Couldn't be happier and will keep EHR in mind for future projects! Thank you EHR team!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Nope, very easy, a straight forward price that I garantee not to exceed, unless we add more work, and clients always add more work, when they start, just do this, then they see how good we are and say, can you do this and this also....
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes, any and all classes that vendors offer, they are always bringing the newest and if you don't learn, then your behind the times, and in this field, you will be out in no time.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Watching my dad build the most beautiful houses in Marin. Fell in love with doing hard work and seeing the results.
