Handyman Services in Liberty Hill, TX
New homes. Real problems. A local craftsman who's already here.
Liberty Hill is the fastest-growing corner of Williamson County. Five years ago, most of what’s now subdivisions was ranch land and cedar scrub along Highway 29. Today, thousands of families live in communities like Santa Rita Ranch, Rancho Sienna, and Northgate Ranch — and every one of those homes is reaching the age where “new” stops being an excuse and real maintenance begins.
Here’s what nobody mentioned at closing: the builder warranty covers defects, not wear. When that warranty expires — usually year two — you’re on your own with builder-grade materials that weren’t designed for a decade of Central Texas heat, UV, and clay soil movement. Cabinet hinges loosen. Caulk cracks. Deck boards cup after two summers. Doors start sticking as the foundation settles.
This is all normal. And it’s exactly what we handle.
Our workshop is in Georgetown, a straight 15-20 minute drive west on 29 from most Liberty Hill neighborhoods. We’re out here regularly — Liberty Hill is one of our fastest-growing service areas because the demand is real. Metro Service Pros is family-owned, licensed and insured, with a full woodshop. When your home needs something the builder didn’t get right, or something that can’t be fixed with what’s on the shelf at the hardware store, we build the right part and install it in your home.
Liberty Hill doesn’t need a franchise dispatched from 45 minutes away in Round Rock or Austin. You need someone local who knows new construction, knows this soil, and knows what these homes need right now. That’s us.
Handyman Services in Liberty Hill
We bring the full range of workshop-grade services to Liberty Hill:
- Carpentry & Custom Woodwork — Turning builder-grade into something personal. Custom shelving, trim upgrades, and woodwork that makes a production home feel like yours.
- Custom Shelving & Built-Ins — New homes come with wire shelving and blank walls. We build pantry systems, home office built-ins, and floating shelves in our shop.
- Interior & Exterior Painting — Builder paint fades fast in Liberty Hill’s open terrain and direct sun. We repaint with coatings rated for Central Texas UV, and we prep the surface right so it holds.
- Drywall Repair — Settlement cracks in new construction are common in the first 3-5 years on Williamson County clay. We fix them properly so they stay fixed.
- Door Repair & Installation — Sticking doors from foundation settling. Hollow-core doors that dent if you look at them wrong. We adjust, repair, and upgrade.
- Deck Repair & Construction — Liberty Hill decks face intense UV and wind exposure on these open lots. Board cupping, surface graying, and fastener pops are common by year three.
- Fence Repair — Acreage properties mean a lot of fence line. Board replacement, post repair, gate adjustment, staining. Cedar fences age fast in direct Hill Country sun.
- Ceiling Fan Installation — Many Liberty Hill homes came with light kits where ceiling fans should be. We wire and install fans that make a real difference on your energy bill.
- Cabinet Repair & Custom — Builder-grade cabinet hardware is the first thing to fail. We replace hinges, pulls, drawer slides, and soft-close mechanisms with hardware that lasts.
- Gutter Cleaning — Even without mature tree canopy, Liberty Hill gutters collect cedar scrub, construction dust, and Hill Country pollen. And the load increases every year as new landscaping fills in.
- Pressure Washing — Driveways, patios, siding. Limestone dust and pollen coat everything — especially on these exposed lots.
- Electrical — Minor — Outlet additions, fixture swaps, dimmer installs. The stuff the builder didn’t include.
- Pre-Listing / Home-Ready Package — Liberty Hill homes are entering the resale market. Get them photo-ready and inspection-clean.
- Home Maintenance Plan — Quarterly visits, seasonal checklists, priority scheduling. The smartest thing a new-home owner in Liberty Hill can do.

Local Home Maintenance Tips
Your Warranty Just Expired. Now What?
Most Liberty Hill builders offer a one- or two-year warranty on workmanship. Once that window closes, every sticking door, hairline crack, and loose cabinet hinge is on you. The smart move is a thorough walkthrough right around the warranty expiration — document everything, get what you can fixed under warranty, then get on a maintenance plan for the rest. Our Maintenance Plan is $197 per quarter and catches these items every 90 days before they compound.
Clay Soil and New Foundations
Liberty Hill sits on Williamson County clay — the same soil that shifts foundations across the county. New homes settle more in their first 3-5 years than they will in the next 20. That settling shows up as drywall cracks, door frames going out of square, and gaps around windows. Most of it is cosmetic and fixable. But ignoring it lets moisture in through those gaps, and moisture turns cosmetic problems into structural ones.
Builder-Grade Won't Last
The materials in most production homes are chosen for cost, not longevity. Cabinet hardware, faucet cartridges, interior door hinges, weatherstripping — they’re designed to survive a warranty period, not a lifetime. Upgrading room by room is the most practical way to turn a new house into a lasting home. It’s the most common call we get from Santa Rita Ranch and Rancho Sienna.
Protect Your Exterior Early
Liberty Hill’s elevation and open terrain mean your home gets more direct sun and wind exposure than neighborhoods tucked under mature tree canopies in Cedar Park or Round Rock. South- and west-facing surfaces start showing UV damage within 3-5 years. Exterior caulk cracks. Paint fades and chalks. Fence boards bleach and split. Catching these early with maintenance staining and caulk replacement extends the life of your exterior by years.
New Doesn't Mean No Gutter Maintenance
Even without mature trees, Liberty Hill gutters collect cedar scrub, construction dust from nearby building sites, and pollen. And as the new landscaping matures, the debris load increases every year. Gutter cleaning now prevents the fascia rot and foundation erosion that catches homeowners off guard in year five or six.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our workshop is in Georgetown — about 15-20 minutes east on Highway 29 from Santa Rita Ranch and Rancho Sienna. We’re in Liberty Hill regularly and schedule multiple jobs in the area on the same day when we can.
New homes need a different kind of attention than older ones, but they still need it. Builder-grade materials wear out faster than most people expect. Foundation settling causes cracks and sticking doors in the first 3-5 years. Warranty periods expire and the builder stops returning calls. A good craftsman catches what the builder left behind and fixes what’s started to wear.
It’s the best time. Problems caught at year two or three cost a fraction of what they cost at year seven or eight. A $50 caulk repair now prevents a $2,000 water damage bill later. Our Maintenance Plan is built for exactly this — systematic, quarterly attention that keeps small issues small.
Drywall settlement cracks, sticking doors, builder-grade hardware failure, deck board cupping, and exterior caulk cracking. All normal for homes in the 1-7 year range on clay soil in this climate. All straightforward when addressed early.
We do. Liberty Hill has a mix — production homes in the major subdivisions and custom builds on larger lots in areas like Stagecoach Hills and Rio Ancho. Acreage properties have their own set of needs: more fence line, outbuilding maintenance, larger-scale exterior work, and custom projects. Our workshop handles it all.
