Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. Mark and Jim met in 2007 while working for a large corporate entity in downtown Kansas City. Along the way , they both discovered mutual interests in Family, Faith and the show Survivor. Both Mark and Jim left that corporate entity separately to seek better ways to make a difference in peoples lives. After spending time working for other employers, they and their families decided to come together to establish Repair-My-Home. The goal at Repair-My-Home is bring the service skills and professionalism of the corporate world to the Home Repair industry.


Mark was born into the construction business following in his father’s and uncle’s footsteps. His love of fine woodworking and eye for detail led him to start his first finish carpentry business while working his way through the University of Oklahoma. After college he spent years augmenting his construction experience by working for several Fortune 500 companies in the realms of Operations, Strategic Growth, Business Development and Customer Satisfaction. Mark’s decision to return to the construction industry allows him marry his experience and passion for the benefit of our Clients.


Jim started pushing a broom for his uncle's construction company when he was in high school. Over the next 15 years Jim gained hands on experience in carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, remodeling, concrete flat-work, sales and estimating. In 2000 Jim realized the one thing he lacked was a business education and went back to school. By December 2005 Jim had earned a diploma in computer programming, a BS from Friends University and an MBA from Baker University. From 2001 to 2010 Jim worked outside the area of construction, honing his business skills. Today he brings all of these skills to the Home Repair Industry.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. What is Wood Rot?

Wood Rot is the term most commonly used in reference to the decay of building timbers, trim, and siding caused by a variety of fungi. Eventually the decay may cause instability and collapse.

Q. Write your own question and answer it.

A. What are few tips for preserving the value of your home's exterior?

The first and best deterioration preventative is a solid coat of paint. Gaps an cracks in the paint allow moisture into your siding and trim allowing degradation to begin soon afterward. The second most important aspect is very similar to monitoring our own health, regular checkups in the spring can catch issues early and save money. There are a few key areas to look for and I suggest probing these areas with the point of a ball-point pen to check for areas that are soft, indicating wood rot:
The bottom edge of your siding, look for material expansion and paint blistering. Many times our own sprinkler systems can cause issues.
Probe the areas around your windows. This seems to be an area of particular vulnerability and often suffers sooner than later (particularly around the brick mold, sill junction)
Be sure to examine the wood trim on your house, especially behind your downspouts and areas where Vertical and Horizontal pieces of trim meet.
When we perform our free consultation, we spend about an hour going over these areas and provide an itemized electronic estimate delivered to your inbox before we leave the property. We also post pictures of any troubled areas to the members only portion of our website so you are able to see the areas we recommend addressing. As always, there is never an obligation, but our firm welcomes the opportunity to earn your business!
