Licensed, bonded & insured general contractor proudly serving Kensington homeowners. MHIC #168342.
Your Trusted Home Improvement Partner in Kensington
Kensington is a small, walkable town along Connecticut Avenue known for its charming Antique Row, tree-lined streets, and tight-knit residential neighborhoods. The housing stock here is predominantly mid-century — Cape Cods, bungalows, and colonials built from the 1930s through the 1960s — with character-rich details like plaster walls, original hardwood trim, and built-in cabinetry that homeowners rightly want to preserve. Leo General Contracting understands how to maintain and update these older homes without losing what makes them special, whether that means carefully patching original plaster, matching existing trim profiles, or selecting paint finishes that complement decades-old woodwork rather than fight against it.
Home Improvement Services in Kensington
Kensington's older, character-rich homes thrive on consistent, skilled maintenance rather than wholesale renovation. Our interior and exterior painting crews handle the careful prep work these homes demand — scraping loose layers, priming bare spots, and cutting clean lines around original trim and crown molding. For cracked or damaged walls, our drywall repair service patches holes, skim coats uneven surfaces, and restores smooth finishes that blend seamlessly with the surrounding area. And our general home repairs and handyman services cover the full range of everyday fixes these homes need, from sticking doors and drafty windows to aging hardware and worn caulking.
We also work closely with local real estate agents on realtor and listing prep projects throughout Kensington, where the housing market stays active and move-in-ready presentation makes a measurable difference. Whether a home needs fresh paint, patched drywall, updated fixtures, or a full cosmetic refresh before listing day, we deliver turnkey results on the tight timelines agents and sellers depend on.
