Common situations Faiz handles in Alexandria
If any of these sound familiar, one call gets it sorted.
The home inspection punch list is still sitting on the counter
You bought your Alexandria home six months ago and the inspection punch list had fourteen items. You knocked out three, a contractor handled two, and the remaining nine have been in a drawer ever since — loose handrail, leaky bathroom caulk, two outlets missing covers, a cabinet hinge pulling out of the wall. Faiz runs through multi-item lists in a single visit and clears the backlog.
Every room has one small thing that's been broken for months
The Del Ray homeowner's version of a honey-do list: the interior door that doesn't latch without a lift, the bathroom fan that rattles, the weatherstrip letting cold air in around the back door. None feel urgent alone, but combined they add up to a house that feels slightly off. Faiz books multi-item visits — arrive once, fix several, leave it done.
Post-winter damage that needs attention before it worsens
Old Town rowhouses take on water in ways the original builders didn't anticipate. After a hard winter, you've got bubbling paint on the exterior trim, a window sill that needs re-caulked before the next rain, and a back step with a crack that's getting wider. Catching and patching these in spring costs a fraction of what deferred maintenance adds up to in a house this age.
Getting the house ready before listing it
Your real estate agent walked through your Huntington home and handed you a list of items buyers will notice: a door that drags the carpet, two drywall dings in the upstairs hallway, and bathroom caulk that photographs dark. None of it is structural, but all of it affects the offer. Faiz handles pre-listing repair lists regularly and works on a timeline that fits your closing date.
First house after years of apartment living — the list keeps growing
You moved from a DC apartment to an Alexandria house, and every week reveals something new: the garage door sensor alignment, the dryer vent partially blocked, the outdoor faucet that drips. It's not that the house is in bad shape — it's that houses require maintenance in a way apartments don't. Faiz is the person to call before the list gets longer.
