Meet Dennis

35 Years of Fixing the Jobs Other Companies Won't Take

Honorable Home Repairs is a family-owned handyman company that has served Fort Wayne since 2005. Owner Dennis Hughes has spent more than 35 years in the home repair trade, and the company motto has never changed: we specialize in small jobs.

The name is a promise. Honesty, integrity, and prompt customer service are the values Dennis put on the sign 21 years ago, and the way he still answers his own phone, writes his own estimates, and does his own work. Free estimates come in writing on every job, so you always know exactly where you stand.

From changing a light fixture to building a deck, from a packed gutter to a full honey-do list, the jobs other companies will not return calls about are the exact jobs this company was built for. Homes are most of the work, and light commercial jobs are welcome too. Call (260) 312-5874 and talk to Dennis directly.

We specialize in small jobs

The Small Jobs Are the Whole Point

Most contractors treat small repairs as an interruption. Dennis built a 21-year business on them. Here is what calling Honorable Home Repairs actually gets you.

You Talk to Dennis

No call center, no salesman, no crew you have never met. The owner answers, quotes the job, and does the work. That is what family owned and operated means here.

Estimates In Writing

Every estimate is free and every estimate is written down. You know the price before the work starts, which is exactly how your grandfather would have insisted on doing it.

35+ Years of Judgment

Three decades of repairs teach you what is worth fixing, what is worth replacing, and what is fine for another ten years. You get that judgment for free with every look.
