Move-in and move-out repairs in Long Island City
Moving out: holes patched and touched up before the walk-through. Moving in: rods, shelves, TV and furniture in one visit.
Moving is when the small jobs stack up. On the way out of a Long Island City, Queens apartment it's the anchor holes, the TV-mount holes and the scuffed corners. On the way in it's the curtain rods, the TV, the bed frame and the shelves. We batch the list into one visit where we can, and work it around your building's elevator booking.
What’s included
- Nail, anchor and mount holes patched
- Paint touch-ups over the patches
- Mounts, shelves and rods taken down
- Move-in: TV, rods, shelves and art
- Furniture assembly and anchoring
- Doors and cabinets adjusted

Straight answers
Do you have to patch holes when moving out of an apartment?
It depends on your lease and your landlord. Many expect small holes filled; patching and touching up before you leave takes the question off the table.
Should I fill holes before moving out?
If your lease or landlord expects it, yes — and a patch that's sanded and painted to match is what passes a close look. Unpainted spackle can look worse than the hole.
Can you batch several small jobs into one visit?
Yes, and it's usually the better way to book. Send the full list with photos and you get one quote for the visit before we start.
