Handyman Service Across Springfield, IL

Springfield sits in the middle of the Illinois prairie, a capital city of a little over a hundred thousand people with the Sangamon River curving past its north side and Lake Springfield stretched across its southeast edge. The housing runs through nearly two centuries. Close to the Capitol and the Lincoln Home, in Aristocracy Hill, Enos Park and Vinegar Hill, there are brick and frame houses from the 1800s with plaster walls and tall windows. Harvard Park, the blocks around Washington Park and the streets near Lincoln Park filled in with bungalows and foursquares in the early 1900s. The south and west sides carry a lot of 1950s and 1960s ranch houses, and the far west side, out along Wabash Avenue, Koke Mill Road and Archer Elevator Road, is mostly subdivisions from the past forty years. One morning we might be re-securing plaster in a Victorian on North Fifth Street; that afternoon we're mounting a TV over the fireplace in a ten-year-old two-story off Veterans Parkway.

Daily life here runs along a few familiar routes: I-55 and I-72 skirting the east and south edges, Veterans Parkway looping the west side, and MacArthur Boulevard, Wabash Avenue, Dirksen Parkway and Sangamon Avenue carrying most of the cross-town traffic. Landmarks are never far off, from the Old State Capitol and the Lincoln Presidential Library downtown to the Dana-Thomas House, the Lincoln Tomb at Oak Ridge Cemetery and the Illinois State Fairgrounds on the north end. Washington Park, with its carillon and duck pond, and the shores of Lake Springfield are where a lot of the city goes to get outside.

Jobs we handle a lot in Springfield

A typical week in Springfield covers a lot of ground: plaster and drywall cracks in older houses, doors that stick through humid summers and gap in January, gutters packed with maple seeds and oak leaves, fence posts loosened by frost heave in clay soil, ceiling fans and light fixtures swapped and wired, leaky faucets and running toilets, storm-damaged fence sections after a spring squall line, and make-ready lists for landlords turning over rentals near downtown and the medical district.
