- In-house technicians ensure consistent quality

Convenience
One Team From Start to Finish
Bluetape coordinates repairs through a single point of contact. Instead of managing multiple contractors, homeowners and agents work with one team that oversees the full scope of work, scheduling, and updates.
The Bluetape Way:
- Coordination of all trades
- Scheduling and materials
- Real-time updates
- Post-job documentation
In many cases, we already know the property and the repair needs. That makes the transition after closing simple and allows us to help complete repairs without added hassle.

What's Your Repair Workflow?
Agents have systems and workflows for their business and their transactions: CRM, brand growth, listings, negotiations, closings, etc. But the repair process is often the least defined and most chaotic. Bring more consistency to every transaction through a modern repair workflow.

Our Services
Every repair. One team.
From quick fixes to complex addendum items, Bluetape handles the full spectrum of inspection repairs with licensed, in-house pros who move at the pace of your deal.
Electrical and plumbing fixes
Small issues can turn into major delays. We tackle faulty outlets, GFCI replacements, fixture swaps, leaky pipes, slow drains, valve repairs, and minor code corrections that show up in almost every report. Fast scheduling keeps surprises from stalling negotiations.
Safety issues and code corrections
Safety flags are some of the biggest deal-killers. We resolve them quickly and correctly. Smoke and CO detector installs, loose railings, tripping hazards, missing handrails, faulty breakers, moisture concerns, and other standard code issues.
Carpentry and structural items
Whether it’s rotted trim, damaged framing, loose decking, or subfloor issues, our team repairs the items inspectors call out most often. Clear scopes and reliable workmanship keep the deal on steady ground.
Drywall, paint, and cosmetic repairs
Cosmetic problems often weigh heavily in negotiation. We patch holes, correct texture, refresh walls, fix damaged trim, and restore the clean, move-in-ready look buyers expect.
Roofing, gutters, and exterior work
We address roof leaks, missing shingles, flashing repairs, gutter cleaning, sealing, exterior wood rot, siding issues, and other common exterior items. Fast response prevents minor findings from turning into costly re-negotiations..
HVAC service and troubleshooting
Inspection reports frequently flag HVAC age, maintenance history, or performance. Our techs provide tune-ups, part replacements, thermostat upgrades, duct repairs, and basic troubleshooting so buyers feel confident in the system’s condition.
Repair and Replace Appliances and Fixtures
We repair or replace malfunctioning appliances, outdated fixtures, leaky faucets, broken disposals, damaged fans, loose hardware, and worn-out lighting. Our team sources parts, installs everything correctly, and ensures each item meets safety and performance standards
Roofing, gutters, and exterior work
We address roof leaks, missing shingles, flashing repairs, gutter cleaning, sealing, exterior wood rot, siding issues, and other common exterior items. Fast response prevents minor findings from turning into costly re-negotiations.
Moisture, rot, and crawlspace issues

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of repairs are best to complete before move-in
Repairs that are easier and less disruptive before boxes and furniture arrives are ideal. This often includes flooring, interior painting, lighting or fixture updates, appliance installation, and any remaining safety or functional fixes.
Can you handle repairs that were not completed before closing?
Yes. Many repairs are negotiated as credits or delayed due to timing. Bluetape can step in after closing to complete remaining inspection items or other agreed-upon repairs. If you or your real estate agent have already used Bluetape before for the property we can quickly look up your inspection report without having to start the process from the beginning.
Is it better to do repairs before or after moving into the home?
In most cases, before move-in is easier and more cost-effective. The home is empty, access is simpler, and work can be completed faster without disrupting daily life.
Do you work directly with homeowners after closing?
Yes. Bluetape works directly with homeowners after closing, coordinating repairs, schedules, and communication through one dedicated project manager.
Can move-in repairs include cosmetic updates like paint or flooring?
Yes. Move-in repairs often include cosmetic updates such as paint, flooring, fixtures, lighting, or appliance installation to help the home feel ready from day one.
How quickly can move-in repairs be scheduled?
Once the estimate is approved, we schedule repairs as quickly as possible based on scope and availability. Our process is designed to take advantage of the pre-move-in window.
Do I need a new inspection report for move-in repairs?
No. We can work from an existing inspection report, a prior estimate, or a simple list of remaining items. A new inspection is not required to get started.
Can you help prioritize which repairs should be done first?
Yes. We help review the scope and prioritize repairs based on safety, function, timing, and overall impact, so you can decide what makes sense to complete before move-in.
What happens if additional repairs are discovered during the work?
If something new comes up, we communicate it clearly, provide updated pricing if needed, and review options before moving forward. No work is done without approval.
Can repairs be completed while the home is empty before move-in?
Yes. Completing repairs while the home is empty is often the most efficient approach and is a common reason homeowners use Bluetape for move-in repairs.
