No Job Too Small: Home Repairs Big Contractors Won't Touch
The door that won't latch. The cabinet hinge that finally gave out. The soft spot in the deck you've been stepping around all summer. Most contractors won't return a call for jobs like these. We will — and we'll do them right.
The Small Jobs Nobody Else Wants
If you've ever tried to hire someone to fix one sticking door or replace a few rotted deck boards, you know how it goes. You leave messages. Nobody calls back. Or someone finally shows up, looks around, and quotes you for a whole remodel you never asked for.
That's because most large contractors are built for big projects. A two-hour repair doesn't fit their schedule or their margins, so it sits at the bottom of the pile — or gets turned down outright.
At D. Quinn Construction, we see it differently. Small jobs are how homeowners get to know a contractor they can trust. We bring the same skill, the same care, and the same clean-up to a single hinge replacement that we bring to a full renovation. And if you've got a list of little things that have been piling up, we'll knock them out in one visit.
Got a Small Job? We've Got You.
Small Jobs We Handle
Doors (Interior & Exterior)
A door that sticks, sags, or won't latch is more than an annoyance — it lets in drafts and wears out hardware. We fix what's there when we can, and replace it cleanly when we can't.
Door repair and adjustment (sticking, sagging, or not latching)
Interior door replacement (pre-hung and slab)
Exterior and entry door replacement
Storm door and screen door installation
Sliding and patio door repair (rollers, tracks, alignment)
Door frame and jamb repair (rot, splits, kick-in damage)
Weatherstripping and threshold replacement
Lockset, deadbolt, and hardware installation
Bifold and pocket door repair

No need to replace a whole kitchen because one drawer won't close. We repair and refresh the cabinets you already have.
Cabinet door and drawer repair
Hinge replacement and alignment
Drawer slide replacement
Cabinet hardware updates (knobs and pulls)

Note for review: confirm the exact electrical scope D. Quinn is licensed and insured for, and adjust this paragraph to match.
