What Andrew Does

One call handles the repairs and projects on your list.

Hughes Residential Services covers the broad middle of home work: the repairs a specialist is too expensive for and a big contractor will not bother with. Real, hands-on craftsmanship from someone who treats your home like his own.

Home Repairs

Drywall, doors, trim, flooring, leaks, and the bathroom floor that has been a nightmare since spring. The broken stuff, handled the first time.

See repair details

Property Maintenance

Recurring upkeep for homeowners and landlords. The fixes and seasonal work that keep a house, or a rental, in good shape between bigger jobs.

See maintenance details

Handyman Projects

Fixture installs, carpentry, and the small improvements that never reach the top of your own weekend list. Done cleanly, on schedule.

See project details

Interior Painting

Clean lines, prepped walls, and an accent wall that actually looks intentional. Rooms that feel finished, not patched.

See painting details

Carpentry & Trim

Doors, trim, framing, decks, and fences. Solid carpentry that lines up square and holds up to a Metro East winter.

See carpentry details

Fixture Installation

Faucets, lights, vanities, ceiling fans, and hardware. New fixtures set straight, sealed, and working before Andrew leaves.

Featured Project · CrossFit Edwardsville

From a gutted shell to an open gym in about a month.

Before / After Before and after of a gym buildout: the top shows a gutted space with exposed ceiling and hanging wiring, the bottom shows the finished gym with rig stations, wood feature walls, and rubber flooring
1 MonthGutted shell to open doors

CrossFit Edwardsville had been in business more than a decade and was ready to upgrade to a premium space in Glen Carbon. It started as bare concrete and an open ceiling with the wiring still hanging. Andrew handled the demolition, then took the buildout the rest of the way: framing, drywall, the wood feature walls, flooring, and setting the rig stations.

About a month later they opened the doors. This is the kind of job most handymen turn down. It is the kind Andrew takes on.

  • Full demolition and haul-out
  • Framing, drywall, and finish
  • Wood feature walls and flooring

Meet Andrew

Hi, I’m Andrew. I have fixed homes here since 2010.

This is my work and my name on it. When you call Hughes Residential Services, you get me, not a crew you have never met. I show up when I say I will, I explain what I am doing, and I treat your home the way I would want someone to treat mine.

Fifteen years in, the job is still the same: do good work, charge fair, and make a homeowner glad they called.
