Drywall patch and finish
Holes, dings, and scuffs blended so walls look finished again, at home or before photos.
Weaverville and north Asheville home base. We travel and quote by job from Hendersonville to Mars Hill.
One list. One crew. Photo-ready.
Ridge & Root Handyman is everyday property care for homeowners, landlords, and anyone with a punch list. Drywall, doors, cleanup, TV mounts, furniture, and the small jobs that pile up. Listings and rentals are welcome too. They are not the only work we take.
Lucien Fritz, local operator. Jobs are quoted, not billed hourly. You do not have to be on site.
Service area
Home base: Weaverville / north Asheville. Quote by job: Hendersonville, Asheville metro, Mars Hill, Woodfin, and nearby.
Handyman and property care
The work we take on, in plain terms
Built for homeowners first, and for anyone else with a list. Small repairs, cleanup, and punch-list items. Not licensed electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, or structural work.
Doors, locks, weatherstripping
Doors that stick, latches that miss, weatherstrip that leaks air. Hardware swaps, not smart-lock sales.
Caulking and trim touch-ups
Gaps, cracked beads, and trim that looks tired. Tight, clean lines. Paint is not a primary service.
TV mounting
Sets hung level, cables managed, and the wall left tidy.
Furniture assembly
Beds, shelves, tables, and the flat-pack pile sitting in the garage.
Property and yard cleanup
Debris, weed eating, mulch, and small gravel paths. Not maid service. Not a pressure-wash contractor.
Home punch lists
The running list on the fridge. We quote the job and work through it so you are not chasing five different people.
Listing shine and sale-prep
Realtor make-ready when a house needs to show. Available, not required. Homeowners use the same crew.
Minor maintenance and appliance troubleshooting
Look, test, and handle the non-trade stuff. If it needs a licensed tech, we say so and stop there.
How we work
From the first photo to a finished list
Short steps. No franchise script. You get a neighbor who answers the phone.
Send the list
Photos, address or area, access notes, and the items that have to be done.
Get a job quote
One number for the list, not an hourly rate table. If something is out of scope, we say it up front.
We work the house
Owner present, lockbox, or vacant. You are not required on site.
Wrap and photos
We leave the work done and a short note of what got finished.
Also for listings and rentals
Realtors and hosts can use the same list
Sale-prep and turnover work is part of the shop. It sits beside everyday homeowner jobs, not above them.
Listing shine
Make-ready before photography. Scuffs, doors, caulk, clutter outside, and the little things buyers notice first.
Sale-prep punch lists
Inspection notes and showing notes, worked as a quoted package. You do not need to meet us on site.
Rental turnover punch lists
Between-guest fixes so the next stay starts clean. Fast, bounded work. No trade scope stuffed in.

Questions
Straight answers
Do you only work listings and rentals?
No. General handyman work for homeowners is first-class. Punch lists, repairs, and property care for anyone with a list. Listings are extra, not the whole shop.
Do you bill hourly?
No. Work is quoted per job after we see the list and photos.
Do I have to be there?
No. You can be home, or we can use a lockbox or vacant access. Tell us how to get in.
Can you do electrical, plumbing, or HVAC?
Those are not advertised services. We stop at non-trade troubleshooting and will tell you when a licensed tech is the right call.
Where do you work?
Home base is Weaverville and north Asheville. We travel and quote by job from Hendersonville through the Asheville metro to Mars Hill, including Woodfin and nearby. Travel quotes depend on the job and the drive. One crew, not local offices everywhere.
Is there online checkout?
No. Call, text, use the quote chat, or send the form. We will come back with a number for the job.
