Airbnb & Rental Maintenance in Chicago
In Chicago, Gold Hands keeps short-term rentals guest-ready: between-guest repair calls, turnover punch lists, lock and smart-lock fixes, TV, furniture and fixture repairs from wear, and pre-check-in walkthroughs. Visits are scheduled: send the issue with your checkout and check-in times and the dispatcher confirms a technician and time before you rely on it.
- Between-guest repair calls, prioritized around your check-in
- Turnover punch lists before the next booking
- Lock, deadbolt and smart-lock repair or replacement
- TV mounts, furniture and fixtures loosened by wear
- Garbage disposals, faucets, toilets and shower doors
- Drywall patches and touch-up paint after guests
- Pre-check-in walkthroughs to catch problems first
- Recurring visits for hosts and managers with several units
How it works
- Send the issue and your window. Text a photo of the problem with the checkout and next check-in times.
- Confirmed slot. The dispatcher confirms a technician inside the turnover window, or tells you straight away if it will not fit.
- Fix and photo report. The technician fixes it and sends photos of the finished work so you can see it before the guest does.
- Recurring plan. For several units, we set up standing visits and a running punch list priced directly with you.
Single calls $100/hr (2-hour minimum); turnover lists as a flat Half Day ($399) or Full Day ($749); recurring multi-unit plans priced with you.
