Apartment Make-Ready Services Across DC, MD and Northern VA
Move-in date on the calendar and the unit is not ready? We handle the make-ready repairs in one visit instead of sending you three contractors and a list of follow-ups.
Make-Ready Work We Handle
Make-ready is the list between move-out and move-in. We work from your make-ready checklist, or build one with you at the walkthrough, and close every line on it.
- Wall patching and drywall repair
- Paint touch-ups and full repaints
- Flooring repairs
- Door and trim repairs
- Fixture replacement
- Final punch list
Your Checklist, Closed Out
Send us your standard make-ready checklist and we work to it, line by line.
Wall Patching
Holes, dents and scuffs repaired and blended so the paint coat covers cleanly.
Paint
Touch-ups where the walls allow it, full repaint where they do not.
Flooring
Damaged sections of plank, vinyl or carpet repaired or replaced.
Hardware and Fixtures
Missing or broken towel bars, cabinet pulls, blinds, light fixtures and cover plates replaced.
Ready Report
We tell you when every line is done, so the unit can be released for move-in.
Why Property Managers Send Us Apartment Make-Ready
What you get when apartment make-ready is on our scope.
Your Checklist Is the Scope
Send us the make-ready checklist your property already uses and we close it line by line.
Built for Short Lists
Make-ready is lighter work between residents. We keep it that way instead of upselling a full turn.
Your Colors, Your Spec
Your standard paint colors, sheen and hardware, matched in every unit.
Bonded & Insured
Covered on every job, so a vacant unit in an occupied building is not your liability.
Make-Ready Questions
The make-ready list is short. These are the questions that decide whether it stays short.
What is the difference between make-ready and a turnover?
Make-ready is usually the lighter list between residents. A turnover can include heavier repairs. Either way the walkthrough decides the scope, and you see it in writing first.
Do you use our paint colors and materials?
Yes. Give us your property's standard paint colors and flooring spec and we match them.
Do you do cleaning?
No. Cleaning is not part of our scope. We finish the repairs so your cleaning team can go in after us.
