Local proof
White County seat, Lafayette crew
Frank Foust started Welcome Home Improvement LLC in 2019. Monticello is the White County seat north of Brookston — lake cottages, in-town houses, and the to-do lists that pile up after a busy summer. We quote from the Lafayette number and treat the drive as normal range, not a franchise “service area” map you never see a truck on.
Homeowners here hire the same kind of work Tippecanoe homeowners do: a leaning fence, a soft toilet floor, three inches of basement water after a storm, a kitchen vent hood, cedar that needs attention before winter. Repeat customers stay because the estimate holds and someone actually calls back.
Seasonal note
Fall gutters on the lake
Monticello roofs shed a Midwest fall of leaves into the trough. Packed gutters and clogged downspouts are how you get ice at the fascia and water at the foundation. We run a dedicated fall gutter cleaning offer with a free downspout flush — book that page for scope and pricing. This page stays the handyman hub so we do not clone the whole gutter LP for every town.
Typical Monticello / White County work
What we actually take
Lake-country and in-town lists
Doors that rub, a leaning dock-side gate, a dripping kitchen faucet, a GFCI that will not hold, a washer that sits in the standpipe. One crew for Monticello houses and cottages.
Fall gutters before freeze
Packed troughs and clogged downspouts dump water at the foundation. Book the seasonal cleaning on the main offer page — free downspout flush included. We do not duplicate that LP here.
Drains and cameras
Clogged sinks, tubs, and laundry lines. We run a camera when guessing would cost you a second trip north.
Water after a leak
Wet drywall, a wax-ring floor, a basement after a hard rain. Stabilize first. Rebuild what belongs in a carpenter visit.

Where we drive
Monticello and the Greater Lafayette orbit
Lafayette and West Lafayette first. Brookston and Monticello north into White County. Then Tippecanoe and the short drives into Clinton, Carroll, and Benton.

Short answers
Before you call
Do you serve Monticello, Indiana for handyman work?
Yes. Monticello is the White County seat north of Brookston — regular driving distance from our Lafayette home base. Same rates: $95/hr daytime labor, $85 trip credited to the job. Say “Monticello” on the call.
Can you clean gutters in Monticello?
Yes. Fall gutter cleaning with a free downspout flush is a separate seasonal offer — full details, scope, and booking live on the fall gutter cleaning page. This Monticello handyman page links you there so we do not duplicate the whole offer LP.
What does a Monticello handyman visit cost?
Daytime labor is $95 per hour. The trip is $85 and it is credited to the job. A defined punch visit is $145. Materials we supply are cost plus 35%. Quotes are free — not a “free visual inspection.”
Is same-day available in White County?
When the job is urgent and we have a crew: next-day +$75, same-day +$125, after-hours or Sunday +$175. That is a scheduling add-on, not a 24-hour guarantee.
How much does a handyman cost in Lafayette, IN?
For Welcome Home Improvement LLC, daytime handyman labor is $95 per hour. The trip is $85 and it is credited to the job — you are not paying a dead fee on top of an hour of work. A defined punch visit is $145. Materials we supply are billed at cost plus 35%. Those are the locked public numbers. We do not publish a menu of every possible repair because a leaning fence and a dripping faucet are not the same hour. Urgency, when you need it and we have a slot: next-day +$75, same-day +$125, after-hours or Sunday +$175. HOA or small-commercial evenings are $190 for a 2-hour minimum. Builder and flip punch lists use the punch and hourly rates on the builder punch page. The quote is free. Call or text (765) 551-7368, email frank@welcomehomeimprovementllc.com, or send the form with the address and the list. We review it and send a number by email or text. You should not have to hunt a Lafayette tradesman or guess the bill from a national lead mill.
Do you offer same-day or emergency handyman service, and what does it cost?
Yes — same-day and next-day are available when the job is urgent and we have a crew in Greater Lafayette. That is not a 24-hour guarantee and not a promise we are sitting on a truck for every call. Call or text (765) 551-7368 and we will tell you the next honest opening. After-hours and Sunday work, when we take it, is a scheduled window — not a fire-watch desk. Locked urgency add-ons on top of the quoted work: next-day +$75, same-day +$125, after-hours or Sunday +$175. Daytime handyman labor is $95/hr with an $85 trip credited to the job. HOA and small-commercial evenings are a different product: $190 for a 2-hour minimum. Quotes are still free. Tell us what failed, the town, and whether the water is still running. A burst, a wet basement, or a dark GFCI kitchen is the kind of call we try to fit. A “sometime this month” punch list is not an emergency fee. If we cannot take it today, you hear that on the phone — not after you waited.
