Landlord Maintenance in Frederick, MD

Rental property maintenance for small landlords in Frederick County: the sticking door, the broken blind, the gutter, the seasonal check. One reliable hand for the repairs between turnovers, without hiring one. Every job gets a written price before work starts.

★★★★★

I highly recommend Jay's Property Management to anyone looking for a reliable, honest and knowledgeable home improvement specialist.

What rental property maintenance covers

Book it job by job, or set a seasonal visit for each property. Either way, the price for each job is in writing first.

  • Repair requests from tenants, handled during business hours
  • Drywall, doors, trim, blinds, caulk and fixture repairs
  • Gutters cleared
  • Seasonal checks: walk the property, note what is wearing out, fix the small items
  • Pressure washing siding, decks and walkways
  • Mulch, bed prep and plantings so the outside stays rentable (installs only, no mowing routes)
  • Hauling whatever ends up at the curb when a tenant moves

When a tenant moves out, the same work rolls into a rental turnover with one price and one ready date.

How it works

  1. Send the request

    Text the address and the problem to 240-315-7030, with a photo if the tenant sent one.

  2. Written price

    You get a written price before we start, good for 30 days. If we find something bigger, you hear about it and approve it first.

  3. Fixed and reported

    We do the repair, clean up, and send you a short note on what was done. You pay by cash, check, card or any payment app.

What we won't take on

We don't take full roof replacement, HVAC install or repair, electrical panel work, or tree removal, and we don't collect rent, screen tenants or manage leases. Hazardous material like asbestos goes to a specialist. Calls and texts are answered Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM, and work is by appointment, with weekend jobs available; requests that come in after hours wait for the next business day.

Questions

Can I set up maintenance on a schedule?

Yes. Some landlords want a seasonal check on each property; others call when something breaks. Both work, and every job is quoted in writing first.

Can my tenants contact you directly?

If you want them to. Some owners prefer to pass requests through themselves. Either way, no work beyond the agreed price happens without your OK.

What happens if something breaks at night?

Requests that come in after hours wait for the next business day. For anything that can't wait, like a burst pipe, call a plumber directly, and we can follow up with the drywall and the cleanup.

Do you need to be the only person working on my rentals?

No. Use us for what we do well and keep your other trades. If an item needs one of them, we'll tell you rather than guess.
