PROPERTY MAINTENANCE
& HANDYMAN SERVICES

DMV landlords and property managers trust 5 Star Pros for reliable turnover crews, comprehensive punch lists, and recurring maintenance that keeps units rent-ready year-round. One call. Everything handled.

PROFESSIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE
IN THE DMV AREA

The DC, Maryland, and Virginia rental market is one of the most competitive in the country. Vacancy days are expensive, and tenants have choices. That means when a unit turns over, you need it back on the market fast — painted, patched, clean, and showing well. You also need a contractor who shows up when they say they will, works without constant supervision, and documents their work properly. That's a short list in most markets, and it's exactly what 5 Star Pros is built to deliver.

We've worked with individual landlords who own a single rental property and with management companies overseeing portfolios of 50+ units across Montgomery County, Arlington, and the District. Whether it's a tenant walkout in Adams Morgan that needs a full repaint and drywall repair, a seasonal maintenance schedule for a Silver Spring fourplex, or a punch list from a contractor handoff, we handle it efficiently and communicate clearly at every step. We provide photo documentation of before and after conditions for every project, which helps with security deposit disputes and gives owners peace of mind.

Beyond rentals, 5 Star Pros serves homeowners who want a reliable handyman relationship — the kind of arrangement where you can call with a list of six things and have them all done in a single visit. Light fixture replacements, door adjustment, bathroom caulking, gutter re-fastening, fence panel repair, outlet replacement — the kind of tasks that pile up and never get done when you're managing them through a general contractor. We bill by the hour or by project, and we're transparent about both.

How It Works

OUR PROCESS

01
Property Assessment

We walk the property with you (or your property manager) and document every item that needs attention. We photograph existing conditions and build a prioritized task list with estimated costs for each item.

02
Priority List

We present the prioritized scope and timeline. You decide what to address now, what to defer, and what to put on a recurring schedule. We work within your budget and your tenant's move-in date.

03
Scheduled Work

Our crew arrives on time, works efficiently, and minimizes disruption to tenants when the property is occupied. All materials are sourced and brought to the job so there are no delays for supply runs.

04
Final Walkthrough

We only wrap up when you're 100% satisfied with every detail. Final photos are taken and shared with you. For portfolio clients, we provide a written work report for your property records.

Common Questions

PROPERTY MAINTENANCE FAQ

Do you work with property managers?+
Yes — property managers are some of our most valued clients. We understand the pace of rental turnovers, the importance of reliable scheduling, and the need for clear before-and-after documentation for security deposit records. We can be added to your approved vendor list for on-call work, or set up on a recurring maintenance schedule across your entire portfolio. We'll assign you a dedicated point of contact.
Can you handle recurring maintenance for my property?+
Absolutely. We offer recurring maintenance agreements for landlords and homeowners who want a reliable crew on call. We can schedule quarterly walk-throughs, seasonal exterior maintenance, post-tenant turnover service, and ongoing punch-list work — all coordinated through a single point of contact so you're not chasing down separate contractors for each task.
Do you do emergency repairs?+
We prioritize urgent situations for existing clients and respond as quickly as our schedule allows — typically same day or next day for emergencies reported before noon. For non-urgent repairs, we schedule within 2–5 business days. Contact us at 227-254-2422 for urgent situations and let us know it's time-sensitive. We always try to help.
What's included in a property turnover?+
A standard turnover package includes patching drywall holes, repainting scuffed or damaged walls, cleaning and touching up trim, replacing broken hardware and fixtures, pressure washing the exterior if needed, and a final walkthrough inspection. We document everything with photos before and after, so you have a complete record for security deposit purposes and your own peace of mind. Custom scopes are available based on your unit's condition.
