General Handyman Services
Plenty of home projects are too small for a general contractor but too involved for a Saturday afternoon. That's the space Cotterman Home Services works in — repairs, replacements, and installations handled by one person who shows up, does the work, and cleans up.
We're a locally owned, insured business serving Greenwood, Whiteland, Franklin, and the south side of Indianapolis.
Projects We Handle
Interior trim
Trim runs, repairs, and replacement pieces cut and fitted to match what's already in the room.
Door casing
Damaged or dated casing removed and replaced with clean miters and caulked joints.
Baseboards
Baseboard installed, repaired, or replaced, including scribing to uneven floors and walls.
Finish carpentry
Shelving, crown and accent trim, and the small finish details that make a room look done.
Small drywall patches and repairs
Dings, doorknob holes, and small holes patched, textured, and made ready for paint.
Interior door installation and replacement
Slab and prehung interior doors for bedrooms, closets, bathrooms, and basements.
Exterior door installation and replacement
Entry doors set, sealed, and adjusted for a proper close and weather seal.
Weatherstripping and door hardware
Worn seals and sweeps replaced, plus knobs, levers, deadbolts, hinges, and strike plates.
General home repairs
Small plumbing and fixture work, appliance hookups, flooring and painting projects, and rental turnover repairs.
Punch-list and honey-do-list projects
TV mounting, shelving, hardware, and the pile of small jobs that never get their own visit.
Don't see your project? Ask anyway. If it's something we shouldn't take on, we'll say so up front rather than learn on your house.

Common Questions
- What size jobs do you take on?
- Most of our work is small to mid-sized: a few hours to a couple of days. If a project turns out to be bigger than a handyman job, we'll tell you straight and point you in the right direction.
- Can I bundle several small repairs into one visit?
- Yes, and that's usually the most cost-effective way to work with us. Send your whole list when you request a quote and we'll plan the visit around it.
- Do you supply the materials?
- It depends on the job. Some customers buy their own fixtures or appliances and we install them; other times we pick up materials. Just let us know your preference when you request a quote.
- My project isn't listed on your site. Should I still ask?
- Please do. The list on our site covers the work we do most often, not everything we're able to handle.
