Preferred Vendors
We are frequently asked who we trust for home improvements, handyman services, and trade work, so we put together this page. Please note that we may not have personally worked with any of these vendors and cannot vouch for their work. However, this list has been compiled from suggestions from our clients and/or agents we work with; it’s a good place to start looking. We receive zero incentives for these recommendations. We hope it helps!
Please note that if you are working with a real estate agent, they may be the best resource for home improvement vendors.
If you have a home improvement expert that you have had a particularly great experience with please submit it below so we can add it to our list!
Thank you for choosing Top Notch Home Inspections, let us know if there is anything we can do to help.
