When Something Fails and You Need a GC, Not Just “a Guy”
Burst pipes, sagging floors, soft decks, failing stairs, leaking overhangs and flickering electrical are not “wait until Monday” problems. They are liability, safety and property value issues stacked on top of each other.

Emergency Property Repair FAQ
What counts as an “emergency” versus a standard repair?
If there is active water, structural movement, safety risk, or a deadline tied to closing, we treat it as an emergency.
Do you handle everything in one visit?
We aim to solve pressing issues within the first hour. If follow-up is needed, we provide a lump-sum bid for permanent restoration.
Will my insurance pay for emergency repairs?
We provide detailed invoices and thermal diagnostic photos that make it easier for your carrier to evaluate your claim.
"Our North End home had a catastrophic leak on a Sunday. Realty Repair answered right away and protected our original trim. Their knowledge of older Tacoma homes made the difference."
