What the season is exposing
Spring moisture, summer use, fall temperature swings, and winter weather reveal different weak points. The checklist should follow the actual condition of the property rather than a generic list of chores.

When seasonal property maintenance makes sense
Seasonal repair and maintenance visits focused on the small exterior and interior items Iowa weather exposes.
Seasonal maintenance is most useful when it catches small failures before Iowa weather turns them into larger repairs. We focus on visible, accessible items such as loose trim, failed sealant, weatherstripping, hardware, and other maintenance issues suited to a handyman visit.

Before we price it
Three things that change the repair decision
Repairable versus replacement territory
We will not pretend every damaged item should be patched. If replacement or a specialist trade is the better long-term answer, that should be clear before money is spent on the wrong repair.
Other small jobs on the same visit
If you have other nuisance repairs, list them with the main request. Bundling compatible work can make the minimum service charge and truck roll work harder for you.
No hourly meter

Frequently asked questions
These answers explain the current website scope and pricing approach. Your actual project still needs to be reviewed.
Do you price seasonal property maintenance by the hour?
No. Five Seasons Handyman prices the defined job. The exact approved project price is established before approved work begins.
Is there a minimum service charge?
Yes. A minimum service charge applies to scheduled work and is included in the project price you approve.
Can I add other small jobs to the same visit?
Usually, yes, when the additional items are within our service scope and can be scheduled efficiently. Include them in the request so we can review the combined list.
What if the problem is larger than expected?
If the condition materially changes the scope, we stop and discuss the additional work before proceeding. We do not simply let an hourly bill keep running.
