Questions La Grange homeowners ask before they start
Straight answers on prices, what each visit covers and how booking works. Still unsure? Call HomeSteadyKY at 502-248-9333.
How much does home maintenance cost in La Grange, KY?+
The HomeSteady Care Membership is $299 a quarter, about $99.67 a month, and covers all four seasonal visits. Without a membership, seasonal visits start at $399 each. On-demand services are $120 a visit, and members save 10%.
What does a home maintenance plan include?+
Every HomeSteady Care visit includes that season’s tasks, the 11-item exterior walkthrough, HVAC filter replacement and a maintenance report with photos. Members also get repair coordination and 10% off eligible on-demand services. Each season comes with its own set of services.
Is a home maintenance membership worth it?+
A year of membership is $1,196 for four seasonal visits. The same four visits booked one at a time start at $1,596, so members save at least $400 a year and also get 10% off eligible on-demand services.
Is a home maintenance plan the same as a home warranty?+
No. A home warranty pays toward covered repairs after something breaks. A HomeSteadyKY plan is scheduled preventive maintenance: seasonal visits, inspections, filter changes and reports that help you catch problems early. It is not a warranty or insurance product.
Do you offer monthly pet waste removal?+
Yes, for HomeSteady Care members. We come out once a month on a set schedule to clear the yard. It is $89.10 a month for one dog, $99 for two and $108 for three, plus $25 a month for a large yard. Extra-large or complex yards and homes with more than three dogs get a custom quote. It is billed monthly, separate from the membership.
What is on a quarterly home maintenance checklist in Kentucky?+
Spring covers windows, dryer vent, range hood filter cleaning and ceiling fan dusting and cleaning. Summer covers the outdoor AC condenser coil, windows and ceiling fan dusting and cleaning. Fall covers gutters, downspouts and windows. Winter covers the exterior inspection, filter, outdoor faucet covers and freeze-preparation check. Every visit includes an HVAC filter change and a photo report.
How do I get outdoor faucets ready for freezing weather?+
Book a freeze-preparation check before the first hard frost. We look over the outdoor faucets and exposed areas around your home that we can reach and tell you what needs attention. It is $120 a visit, and HomeSteady Care members save 10%. The check is also part of every winter visit.
Can I book a single seasonal visit?+
Yes. Seasonal visits without a membership start at $399, and you can book one online. It includes that season’s task list, an HVAC filter change and a photo report. HomeSteady Care members get the same visits as part of their $299 quarterly membership.
What does my walkthrough report include?+
The report records 11 exterior items with notes, condition ratings, photos and recommended next steps. It is emailed as a branded PDF or shareable link. Areas that could not be accessed or inspected are recorded.
How do larger repairs and contractor payments work?+
HomeSteady Care members get help finding a contractor for work outside our scope, once you approve. You choose the contractor and pay them directly.
Which areas does HomeSteadyKY serve?+
HomeSteadyKY is based in La Grange, KY and serves Crestwood, Prospect, Goshen, Pewee Valley, Buckner, Middletown and East Louisville. Call 502-248-9333 to confirm your street.
How far ahead should I book, and do I need to be home?+
Please allow at least three days. A week’s notice is best whenever possible. Dates are subject to availability. Whether you need to be home depends on the work and access arrangements, which we confirm with you before booking.
Who supplies filters and repair materials?+
You can leave your own HVAC filters at the house, or HomeSteadyKY can buy them and charge for them separately. Filter sizes and any repair materials are agreed before the visit.
What are the member discounts and cancellation terms?+
Members save 10% on eligible on-demand services. The membership is billed automatically every 3 months to the credit card on file. To cancel, send a written request by email to [email protected]. Refunds are reviewed and approved by HomeSteadyKY, and unused quarterly services are generally non-refundable.
