Lakeside Living Comes With Its Own Maintenance

The Colony started as a planned community by Fox and Jacobs in 1973 on roughly 3,000 acres along Lake Lewisville. Those original homes are now 50 years old. They've held up well, but half a century means aging plumbing fixtures, worn-out doors, outdated electrical, and plenty of drywall that's cracked from decades of foundation movement on North Texas clay.

Proximity to the lake adds another layer. Homes near the shoreline deal with higher humidity, which can affect wood trim, door frames, and exterior paint faster than homes farther inland. Deck and fence maintenance is also more frequent for lakeside properties where moisture exposure is constant.

Frequently Asked Questions

We serve all of The Colony, from the original neighborhoods near the lake to Austin Ranch, The Tribute, Creekside, Stewart Creek, and the areas around Grandscape. Our technicians also cover nearby Little Elm, Frisco, Lewisville, and Carrollton. We can usually get to your home within a few days.
The Colony's original Fox and Jacobs homes are well-built, but after 50 years they commonly need door replacements, drywall repair from foundation settling, fixture updates in kitchens and bathrooms, and fence restoration. We also see a lot of requests for trim work and interior painting in these older homes. Our technicians are familiar with this era of construction and know how to work with it efficiently.
We get it. The handyman industry has a reputation problem. That's exactly why we do things differently. Every technician is a W-2 employee (not a random subcontractor). They're trained by us, trusted by us, and accountable to us. If something goes wrong, you're not chasing down some guy who won't return your calls. You call our office and we make it right.
You book a time online, and one of our experienced handymen calls you via video chat (usually the same day, often within 30 minutes). Show us the problem on camera, and we'll give you an honest assessment. We'll explain what needs to be done, walk you through options, and provide a quote. No charge for the virtual assessment.
If anything goes wrong with our work within 12 months of completion, call us. We'll come back out and fix it at no charge. No fine print. No arguing about what's covered. We stand behind our work because we trust our team to do it right the first time.
