Customer Reviews

What Homeowners Say

Feedback from clients across Chilliwack and the Fraser Valley.

"Howard and his team patched a section of drywall after we had a small water leak. They did a clean job and took the time to explain why the damage happened in the first place. Very professional."

Linda V.
Chilliwack, BC

"We've been using Howards for about three years now. Consistent, reliable, and they show up when they say they will. Used them for plumbing fixes and a bathroom outlet issue. No complaints."

Patrick M.
Abbotsford, BC

"Marcus did a great job fixing several holes in our rental unit walls before new tenants moved in. Finished on time, cleaned up after himself, and the patch work blended in well."

Greg T.
Sardis, BC

"Had a running toilet and a dripping kitchen faucet at the same time. Called on a Tuesday morning, Derek was here Wednesday afternoon. Both done in under two hours. Fair price."

Carla H.
Chilliwack, BC

"Good communicators, which matters a lot. They texted me when they were on their way and explained the quote line by line before starting. That kind of straightforwardness is what keeps us coming back."

James & Deb W.
Mission, BC

"We manage six rental properties and Howards handles all our maintenance calls. Turnaround times are reasonable and their work is consistent. It's hard to find that combination."

Helpful Tips

Quick Home Maintenance Reminders

Small habits that can save you time and money over the long run.

Check Under Sinks Seasonally

It takes two minutes to look under your kitchen and bathroom sinks. Catching a slow drip early prevents cabinet damage and mould buildup.

Test Smoke Detectors Twice a Year

Change batteries when clocks change. Most detectors have a test button — use it. A detector with a dead battery is no detector at all.

Insulate Pipes Before Winter

In BC's colder months, pipes in unheated spaces like garages or crawlspaces can freeze. Foam pipe insulation is inexpensive and easy to install.

Clean Your Dryer Vent Annually

A blocked dryer vent is one of the leading causes of home fires. Clear the vent hose once a year and check the exterior vent cap for obstructions.

Caulk Before It Cracks

Tub and shower caulk dries out and shrinks over time. Replacing it every 2–3 years prevents water from getting behind tiles and causing hidden damage.

Don't Ignore Flickering Lights

Occasional flickering can mean a loose connection or an overloaded circuit. It's worth having an electrician take a look rather than assuming it will sort itself out.
