Independent Quote, Contract & Scope of Work Review
Hiring a contractor for a home project can be a big decision — and the details in the quote, contract, and scope of work matter. A single overlooked clause, vague description, or unbalanced payment schedule can lead to costly surprises down the road.
At TRS Total Residential Services, we offer unbiased, independent reviews of contractor quotes, contracts, and scopes of work. As an experienced residential professional with no affiliation to other contractors, I provide a clear, straightforward second opinion to help you move forward with confidence.
What’s Included in Your Review:
Line-by-line analysis of the proposed scope of work for completeness and clarit
Evaluation of pricing fairness and potential red flags
Review of payment schedules, timelines, warranties, and liabilities
Identification of missing protections or ambiguous language
Summary of risks and recommendations
Perfect for:
Homeowners receiving bids for renovations, additions, roofing, siding, or major repairs
Buyers using repair concessions after a home inspection
Anyone wanting peace of mind before signing a contract

Property Inspection
Property Inspections
Get a helpful overview of your home’s condition.
Not every situation calls for a comprehensive home inspection. Sometimes you just need a trained, experienced eye to walk through your property, spot visible issues, and give you a straightforward summary of what looks good and what might need attention.
At TRS Total Residential Services, our Basic Property Walkthrough is a practical, affordable service that gives Maine homeowners a clear snapshot of their property’s current visual condition.
What’s Included:
1–2 hour on-site walkthrough (interior & exterior)
Visual check of readily accessible areas:
Roof (from ground level), siding, windows, doors, foundation
Interior rooms, floors, walls, ceilings
Plumbing fixtures (visible leaks, drainage)
Electrical outlets & switches (basic function testing)
Heating system (visible condition & basic operation)
Attic, basement, or crawlspace (if safely accessible)
Safety items (smoke/CO detectors, stairs, railings)
Maine-specific seasonal concerns (winter damage signs, moisture issues, pest entry points)
Informal checklist with photos of notable observations
Recommendations for next steps (repairs, maintenance, or when a certified inspection is advised)
Important Note: This is a visual, non-technical walkthrough performed by an experienced residential professional — not a certified home inspection. It does not include invasive testing, specialized equipment, or a formal report meeting certified standards. For buying/selling transactions or detailed assessments, we recommend a licensed certified home inspector.
Perfect for:
Seasonal or vacation homeowners checking their property after winter or before arrival
Landlords doing move-out/move-in walkthroughs
Sellers wanting to identify obvious issues before listing

MAINTENANCE scheduling
Property Maintenance Scheduling
Keep your home safe, efficient, and worry-free — year after year.
Regular maintenance is the smartest way to protect your biggest investment. Small tasks done on schedule prevent major repairs, lower energy bills, extend the life of your systems, and keep your home running smoothly through Maine’s changing seasons.
For seasonal owners most insurance policies require that your home is regularly looked after in order to award coverage for a loss.
With TRS Property Maintenance Scheduling, we create a personalized plan tailored to your home’s needs, your schedule, and your budget. We handle the reminders and the work, so you don’t have to remember when it’s time for the next task.
What’s Included:
Custom seasonal maintenance checklist (spring startup, fall shutdown, winter prep, etc.)
Scheduled visits for routine tasks like:
Gutter cleaning & downspout checks
Furnace/HVAC filter changes & system tune-ups
Smoke/CO detector testing & battery replacement
Window/door weatherstripping & caulking checks
Sump pump testing & backup battery checks
Exterior inspections (roof, siding, foundation, deck)
Plumbing leak checks & water heater flushing
Conditions checks to verify all systems are operating as intended
And any recurring handyman tasks you choose
Visit reports with photos and conditions along with any recommendations.

Insurance Loss Assistance & Claim Support
Insurance Loss Assistance & Claim Support
Get expert guidance through your insurance claim — from damage assessment to completed repairs.
Property damage from storms, water leaks, fire, or other covered events can turn your world upside down. On top of the loss itself, navigating the insurance claims process often feels like a second battle.
