aintaining a high-quality home involves a web of service providers, appointments, seasonal services, small and large repairs, and upgrades that can overwhelm even the most organized homeowners. Add the increasing technology needs of today’s homes, and it makes sense that more and more homeowners are choosing to hire professionals to manage their home maintenance needs. The trend we see is that homeowners are moving away from the “handyman” model and toward a business like ours that can mobilize not only our own team of skilled laborers, but also a network of carefully vetted service providers, artisans, and technicians to address any home maintenance need. Kistler and Knapp designed its Home Services
“Our mission is to give all of our Home Services clients peace of mind, knowing that their largest investment is being cared for by a team of professionals 365 days a year. We recently opened our Cape and Islands office to expand our services to seasonal homes as well.” —Karen Vaillancourt, Director of Home Services, Kistler & Knapp
Division around the concept of giving homeowners a customized approach to the care of their home. As part of every new client relationship, we provide a complimentary, comprehensive home evaluation. This valuable service is designed to find and solve small problems before they become costly and is revisited every year as part of our annual review process. We provide additional home services to fit each client’s needs, including offering a personal field technician for minor repairs and consultations; tracking recurring maintenance and scheduling seasonal and annual services; supervising projects large and small; and arranging our Home Watch service when clients are away.
