Point of sale violation repairs
Many Cuyahoga County communities inspect a property before it changes hands. We take the violation list and work through it.
What this covers
- Full violation list pricing from the city report
- Exterior items: siding, soffit, fascia, gutters, trim and paint
- Masonry items: steps, walks, porches, foundation and tuckpointing
- Roof items: flashing, missing shingles, deck repair
- Structural items: handrails, guardrails, joists, headers and framing
- Interior items: drywall, flooring, doors, windows and finishes
- Coordination of plumbing and electrical items on the list
- Work carried through to re-inspection

Investors, landlords, agents and homeowners with an open violation list holding up a sale.

Questions we get asked.
- Can you work directly from the city inspection report?
- Yes. Send us the report and we price the items on it. Working from the actual report avoids guessing at scope and avoids missing items that trigger a second re-inspection.
- Do you handle the whole list or only some trades?
- The whole list. These reports usually cross several trades at once, and splitting them across separate outfits is what makes them slow. We take it as one job.
- Can you look at a property before I buy it?
- Yes. If you are weighing up a purchase with an open violation list, we will walk it with you at no charge so you know what correcting it costs before you commit.
- What areas do you cover for this?
- Cuyahoga County and Greater Cleveland, including Cleveland, Parma, Lakewood, Euclid, Cleveland Heights, Shaker Heights, Garfield Heights, Maple Heights and the surrounding communities.

More on point of sale violation repairs
A point of sale inspection can stop a sale in its tracks. The city walks the property, writes up what fails, and the deal does not move until those items are corrected, escrowed, or formally assumed by the buyer. For anyone buying and selling property in Greater Cleveland, that list is a recurring cost and a recurring delay.
We work from the inspection report itself. Hand us the violation list and we price the whole thing, not a selection of the easy items. That matters, because a half corrected list means a second re-inspection and another round of waiting.
The work that turns up on these lists cuts across trades, which is the awkward part. One report might name a handrail, a section of rotted soffit, a cracked sidewalk flag, a GFCI outlet and a furnace flue. Hiring that out as five separate jobs is where the time goes. We cover structural, masonry, roofing, exterior and interior finishes, and we coordinate the trades behind the plumbing and electrical items, so the list moves as one job.
Requirements and escrow rules differ from city to city across the county, and they change. We work to the report the city actually issued for your property rather than to a general rule, and we stay on it through to re-inspection.
