What We Do in St. Louis

Home repairs and projects in St. Louis.

Hughes Residential Services is a handyman and home repair business serving St. Louis, MO. We handle the repairs, upkeep, and projects on a St. Louis homeowner’s list, and we answer our own phone when you call.

St. Louis is the big city across the Mississippi River from the Metro East, and a lot of its housing stock shows its age in the best way: brick homes, plaster walls, original trim, and the kind of older construction that needs someone who has seen it before. That is the work we have done since 2010. We are based in East Alton, a short drive over the river, so getting to a St. Louis job is the same kind of trip we make all week.

Older homes come with older-home problems: a bathroom floor that has gone soft, drywall and plaster that needs patching, doors and trim that have shifted over the years, and fixtures that are due for replacement. We handle the broad middle of that work, the repairs a specialist is too expensive for and a big contractor will not bother to schedule. We also work for St. Louis landlords, turning units between tenants so they show well and rent faster.

When you call, you talk to us, not a call center. We listen to what is going on, explain how we would fix it, and give you a free estimate with no surprise add-ons. Fifteen years in, the job is still the same: do good work, charge fair, and leave a St. Louis homeowner glad they called.

St. Louis runs from older city neighborhoods full of brick and character out to the newer homes in the surrounding suburbs, so no two jobs look alike, and that suits how we work. We would rather quote the job in front of us than push a one-size package, so an estimate reflects what your home actually needs. Whether it is a single repair on an older city home or a punch list before you list a property, you get the same straight answer and the same person on site start to finish.

“He came out to our rental property and had to replace our bathroom floor that was a nightmare BUT he did it like it was absolutely nothing. He was very easy to talk to and he explained everything thoroughly and listened to what we had to say.”

Good Questions

What homeowners ask before they call.

Do you cross the river into St. Louis and Missouri?
Yes. We are based in East Alton and work throughout the St. Louis metro on both sides of the river, within about a 30-mile radius.
Do you give free estimates?
Yes. Estimates are free. Tell us what is going on with your home and we will give you a straight answer on how we would fix it and what it costs.
Do you take small jobs?
Yes. Small jobs are a big part of what we do: the single repair, the one install, the punch-list item a larger contractor will not bother to schedule. No job is too small to call about.
Do you answer your own phone?
Yes. When you call (618) 531-5564 you reach us directly, not a call center or an answering service. You are talking to the person who will actually do the work.
Do you work with landlords and rentals?
Yes. We work for both homeowners and landlords across the Metro East and St. Louis, including repairs and turnover work on rental properties in St. Louis.
