Why homeowners call
The complaint is almost never the hammer. It is the silence.
After 20+ years of construction and carpentry, the pattern is obvious: homeowners get tired of not knowing what is happening in their own house. That confusion is an extra problem on top of an already frustrating week.
We go the extra mile so you understand the job — what we are doing, why we are doing it that way, and what happens next. Family owned. Small on purpose.
“If you're looking for jobs around your house or need ideas, do not hesitate to give Welcome Home Improvement a call. Frank's craftsmanship is top notch and he is very dependable. I've hired him time and again and will continue to do so with other projects.”
Fencing
Leaning panels, new gates, and wood fence repairs that actually sit plumb — without a three-week callback wait.
Fencing in Lafayette →Camera Inspections
See the clog, the break, or the roots before anyone opens a floor. Sewer and drain cameras for Lafayette homes.
Camera inspections in Lafayette →Crawlspace Inspection
Crawlspace inspection robot — a remote-control camera that drives under the house to check moisture, insulation, pests, leaks, and structure. From $199.
Crawlspace inspection in Lafayette →Mold Remediation
Water got in. Dry-rot, staining, or musty drywall around a leak — we open it up, clean it, and put the room back.
Mold remediation in Lafayette →Drain Cleanout
Slow showers, kitchen backups, and main-line clogs. Clean it out, explain what we found, and tell you if it will return.
Drain cleanout in Lafayette →Drywall
Patches, water damage, new walls, and texture that does not announce itself from across the room.
Drywall in Lafayette →Painting
Rooms, trim, and the walls we just repaired. Clean edges, honest prep, and a house that looks finished — not ‘good enough.’
Painting in Lafayette →Roofing
Leak tracing, shingle repairs, and the small roofing jobs that should not require a national roofing sales pitch.
Roofing in Lafayette →Decks
Repairs, rails, boards, and new small decks. Built like carpentry, not like a weekend kit that moves in a year.
Decks in Lafayette →Flooring
LVP, tile, and the ‘this carpet has to go’ jobs. Level with you about subfloor before anyone orders boxes of plank.
Flooring in Lafayette →Bathroom Remodel
Small-to-medium bath remodels: the toilet that wrecked the floor, the tub surround, the vanity that has been ‘next year’ since 2019.
Bathrooms in Lafayette →Tile
Floors, showers, backsplashes, and the basement that should never see carpet again. Layout explained before the first cut.
Tile in Lafayette →Kitchen Remodel
Vent hoods, backsplashes, floors, and the small kitchen remodels that make the room usable again — not a showroom you never asked for.

“So glad to have found Frank! He has done so many odd jobs around our home — from installing a new vent hood in the kitchen and the bathroom, to re-doing the cedar siding of our garage, to fixing our leaning wooden fence, to installing a wooden gate, to fixing a broken shelf in our closet. He can do whatever job is needed and does it professionally and is always available to answer questions and follow up if any issues arise. As a homeowner, little things just pop up and you just don't have the time to address it. Frank is your guy and will give you an honest quote and always stick to his estimate. Highly recommend him!”

“Frank came in and helped repair water damage in my basement after some flooding resulting from heavy rains. We had 3 inches of standing water across the entire floor and he came in with a sump pump to clear the excess water and fans to dry the space afterwards. He was extremely efficient helping during the emergency. After the water was gone, we needed to replace the carpet that was ruined, and he steered us in the direction of tile just in case we flooded again. He even tiled it for us. He is a great handyman. Very communicative and worth the money.”

Owner
Frank Foust
Frank started Welcome Home Improvement LLC in 2019. He has been a carpenter for 14+ years and has worked across the trades — retaining walls to kitchen and bath remodels. He prefers small-to-medium jobs and variety: knowing something about everything, and how the trades fit together.
He is a homeowner too. He knows how overwhelming the repair list feels, and he likes clearing it — big or small.
