Palatine has a mix of older ranch homes near downtown and newer subdivisions to the north, requiring different approaches per job.
What's different about Palatine: A typical Palatine service call is a list, not a single job — and since subdivisions built from the 1960s through the 1980s sit alongside newer townhomes near the downtown Metra, the list follows that housing era's maintenance rhythm. Because rolling, wooded lots near Deer Grove hold shade and moisture well into the afternoon, half the value is knowing what's normal for these houses and what's a warning sign. Punch-list visits run every week from Plum Grove Estates to the townhomes around downtown Palatine.
