Rental work we handle

We cover northern Cayuga County only, from the Lake Ontario shore down through the canal villages. We do not work the southern half of the county.

01

Short-term rentals in Fair Haven

The Village of Fair Haven requires short-term rental permits, with an inspection by the code officer and another at renewal. We fix what fails.

02

Village two-family turnovers

Census data counts thousands of two-unit buildings in the county. Upstairs-downstairs units in the canal villages turn over often and need fast, durable work.

03

Manufactured homes as rentals

Floors, doors, baths and skirting take a beating. We repair them with materials made for that kind of home.

04

Estate houses and fixer-uppers

Old farmhouses bought to rent or resell. We give you a scope and price before you sink money in.

Little Sodus Bay bookings

Fair Haven sits on Little Sodus Bay next to Fair Haven Beach State Park, with its bluffs and sand beach. Cottages, cabins and lake houses around the bay and along the Sterling shore are rented by the week all summer.

Those places see more use in a season than many homes see in years. The Village of Fair Haven now permits short-term rentals and inspects them. We do the off-season repairs, update baths and floors, and get owners ready for inspection day.

For owners

Code and safety items

Smoke and CO detectors, stair rails, egress, GFCI outlets near water and working heat show up on most inspection lists. We fix them and send proof.

Built to rent

Waterproof plank floors, washable paint, full-surround showers and solid doors. Things that look good and still hold up after the third tenant.

Insurance repairs

Frozen pipes in a vacant house, snow load damage, a leak a tenant did not report. We document it for your adjuster and rebuild.
