Maryland Heights is home base for Schaefer Home Solutions, and it's where much of our recent concrete and landscape work has taken place. We know the neighborhoods, the soil, and the kind of exterior wear and tear the local weather causes — which means fewer surprises once a project gets underway.
What Maryland Heights homes tend to need
Most homes in Maryland Heights were built between the 1960s and 1980s, which puts a lot of original driveways, patios, and sidewalks right at the age where cracking and settling become noticeable, especially on the clay-heavy soil common throughout this part of St. Louis County. It's also typical for electrical panels, plumbing fixtures, fencing, and doors from that era to start needing attention as they pass the 40- to 60-year mark.
Concrete & exterior care in Maryland Heights
Decades of freeze-thaw cycles and clay soil movement are the main reasons driveways and walkways in this area develop cracks, settling, and drainage issues. We handle replacement, resurfacing, and sealing for exactly this kind of wear, along with power washing to keep older concrete looking newer for longer.
Landscape in Maryland Heights
The mature tree canopy planted throughout Maryland Heights in the 1960s and 70s means more storm damage calls, dead limbs, and stump removal than you'd see in a newer subdivision. It's also part of why lawn aeration tends to make a bigger difference here, since older, more compacted soil benefits the most.
Junk removal in Maryland Heights
As original owners downsize or pass a home on to family, estate cleanouts are one of the most common requests we get in Maryland Heights. We also handle routine furniture, appliance, and yard debris removal for homeowners who are just updating what's in the house.
Handyman services in Maryland Heights
Original fixtures, doors, drywall, and outlets in a home that hasn't been updated since it was built are exactly what our handyman service is built for, small, individual repairs rather than a full remodel.
