Serving Kensington
Kensington is home. Our workbench is here, and it's where every route starts. The village — a historic part of Berlin centered around the Route 15 corridor — mixes older capes and colonials with newer neighborhoods, plus the small shops and churches that give it a real village feel.
Because we're based here, Kensington visits are easy to schedule around your day, and we're rarely more than a few minutes away when a follow-up adjustment is needed.

Local housing
What we find in Kensington houses.
Kensington is a village inside the town of Berlin, and most of the housing here went up between the 1920s and the 1960s — capes, four-squares and small colonials on compact lots.
Older capes with one bathroom
A single bath on the ground floor, often added after the house was built. Tile over plaster, no blocking behind it — grab bars need proper work here, not anchors.
Route 372 traffic on the old doors
Doors on the street side of the house take more of a beating and settle faster. Hinge resets and strike adjustment are the two most common fixes we make in the village.
Basements that stay damp
Block foundations and old floor drains mean trim, sills and bottom plates swell. Sealing and repair last longer when it is done in late summer, before the wet season.

Kensington questions
Before you call in Kensington.
Do you cover the whole of Kensington?
Yes — the village and the Berlin addresses around it. It is our home base, so scheduling here is usually the easiest part of the week.
Can you come out the same day?
Sometimes, if the job is small and the schedule allows. Call in the morning and we will tell you honestly whether it is a today job or a this-week job.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Kensington is where the workbench is, so there is nothing to charge for.
