For agents and landlords in Frederick County, MD

Get a House Ready to List, Show or Re-Rent

Send us the address and a few photos Call 240-315-7030 Contact form

You have a listing date, a showing on the calendar or a tenant moving in, and the house is not ready. We clear it out, tear out what has to go, work through the punch list and haul everything away. You get a free written quote first, usually the same day. $100 minimum for any job.

What we do before a listing or a new lease

  • Pre-listing cleanouts and junk removal: furniture, leftover belongings, garages, basements and sheds. See junk removal and move-out cleanouts.
  • Light demolition: old decks, sheds, fences and interior tear-outs like cabinets or carpet. See light demolition and deck removal.
  • Handyman punch lists: drywall patches, doors, trim, caulk and the small fixes a walk-through turns up. See handyman repairs.
  • Rental turnovers between tenants: clear-out, repairs and haul-away so the unit can be shown. See rental turnover services.
  • Exterior prep: pressure washing decks, siding and walkways before the listing photos.

Debris is loaded, hauled and disposed of in the same job, and dump fees are in the quoted price. Mattresses are $28 each; items with refrigerant, tires, and jobs with bed bugs or mold carry an added fee shown on the quote. TVs, electronics and other non-hazardous items cost nothing extra.

How working with us goes

  1. Text the address and a few photos

    Send them to 240-315-7030 with your deadline: the listing date, the first showing or the move-in day. For bigger jobs we can come look in person.

  2. Get a free written quote

    One price for the work described, in writing, usually back the same day. Forward it to your seller or owner for approval. Quotes are good for 30 days, and the price you agree to is the price you pay.

  3. You don't have to meet us there

    We can work from a lockbox, a code lock or a key handoff, so nobody has to leave a showing to let us in. When the job is done we text before and after photos so you can see the result without driving back out.

The owner, James (Jay) King, is on every job. Calls and texts are answered Mon–Fri 9 AM–5 PM, weekend jobs are available, and the minimum for any job is $100. Pay by cash, check, card or any payment app.
