Outdoor & Exterior Repairs
Fence pickets, gate sag, deck boards, mailbox replacement, and exterior touch-ups — the projects that make a house look loved.
Signs You May Need This
- A sagging gate that scrapes the ground when it swings
- Broken or missing fence pickets after a Texas storm
- Soft or splintered deck boards
- A mailbox post knocked off-true by a delivery truck
- Exterior paint peeling on trim, fascia, or shutters
- A loose handrail on the front-porch steps
Curb Appeal Without a Whole Crew
Most exterior repairs aren’t big enough to justify a fence company or a deck contractor — but they make the biggest difference in how your house feels coming home to. Presto Change-O’s Handywork takes on the ten-board fix, the one-gate rebuild, the loose handrail, the leaning mailbox.
What Preston Repairs Outside
Cedar or pine fence picket replacement and full-section repair. Gate rebuild and post-anchoring with concrete. Deck board replacement and re-fastening (square-drive screws, not nails that pop). Handrail and baluster repair on stairs and porches. Exterior trim, fascia, and corner-board rot replacement (paint and caulk-tied-in). Mailbox post replacement, including HOA-spec posts where required. Gutter and downspout re-securing, splash-block repositioning, and small leak repairs.
Pressure Wash Plus Touch-Up
For pre-listing or just post-pollen-season cleanup, Preston can pressure-wash siding, soffits, and trim and follow with paint touch-ups in the same visit so the result actually looks done — not just clean-but-faded.
Weather Window
Most exterior paint and caulk work is best done above 50°F and with two clear days for cure. In Round Rock that’s most of the year, but Preston schedules around weather and won’t paint into a forecast.
