Home repair in Herndon, VA
Herndon has an old town around Elden Street with frame houses from the early 1900s, and around it the townhouse communities that came with the Dulles corridor, Fox Mill, McNair Farms and the rest, built from the 1970s through the 1990s. The old town work is plaster, wood siding and porches. The townhouse work is doors, drywall and installs.
Or call or text (240) 858-0149. Hours 8 to 6, Monday through Saturday.
Elden Street frame houses and corridor townhouses
Herndon townhouses often have a finished basement with a walkout, and the slider on that walkout is the number one call. It drags, the lock will not catch, the screen is gone. We clean and re roll the track, replace the rollers, and adjust the latch so it locks without a shove.
The frame houses off Elden Street have wood lap siding, and the bottom two courses near the ground rot first. We replace those courses with primed fiber cement cut to the same reveal, which is cheaper than a full side and looks the same once painted.

Herndon owners ask
- Can you fix a sliding door instead of replacing it?
- Nearly always. New rollers, a cleaned track and a latch adjustment bring most sliders back. A cracked frame or fogged glass is a replacement, and we say so first.
- Do you replace a few courses of rotted siding?
- Yes. We swap the rotted courses for primed fiber cement cut to match the reveal and paint them. The rest of the wall stays.
- How do you price a townhouse visit in McNair Farms?
- As one visit with the jobs listed. Townhouses in the same community are grouped on the same day, which keeps the visit price down.
