As cold weather rolls into the city, small issues in your home can quickly turn into big problems. PHS General Contractor Philadelphia (Philly House Services) helps owners and landlords manage remodeling, repairs, and maintenance so properties across the city stay safe, comfortable, and ready for the season.
We regularly work in Manayunk, Roxborough, Fishtown, Northeast Philadelphia, South Philadelphia, and Center City, coordinating multiple trades under one roof as your general contractor in Philadelphia.
High-impact winter repairs and upgrades
Before the coldest days arrive, it’s smart to evaluate your property and tackle a few key projects:
- Roof and ceiling checks for old leaks, stains, or soft drywall
- Window and door updates to reduce drafts and energy loss
- Basement finishing and waterproofing to deal with damp, cold spaces
- Flooring replacements where old carpet or damaged LVP is causing issues
- Wall and trim repairs after previous water damage or settling
By bundling these repairs with smart design changes, PHS can turn “maintenance work” into long-term upgrades that actually make the home more usable and attractive.
Support for busy landlords and investors
Philadelphia landlords often juggle multiple properties, tenant move-ins, and inspection requirements. PHS acts as a reliable partner for:
- Turnover renovations between tenants
- Code-related corrections to stairs, railings, smoke alarms, and egress
- Kitchen and bath refreshes that increase rental appeal
- Punch-list repairs after inspections or appraisals
We provide clear scopes, timelines, and communication so you always know the status of each project.
