ABOUT BUSINESS OWNER
I have lived in the Mt Prospect area my entire life and I have served some customers in the area for over 20 years! I currently reside in Mt Prospect with my wife and my two daughters.
While working as an Electrician for nearly 14 years, working in both the commercial and residential sector, I was able to learn a wide variety of electrical systems. I am knowledgeable in many facets of home construction and I am constantly learning about new technologies used in today's modern homes. I believe that when remodeling a home, you should Build it better and plan your repairs thoroughly before you begin your next project.
The best advice I can give to a homeowner is to budget your home repairs and plan ahead! Performing regular home maintenance every year will ensure you are tending to your most valuable asset, your home! Putting off home repairs not only can be unsafe, but can end up costing you more to fix in the long run.

Reviews
The services provided by Welter Home Services were excellent. The work consisted of cleaning baseboard radiators, which hadn't been cleaned in years, and then doing the plastering and painting that was damaged by taking the radiators apart. The worker was prompt, professional, and friendly. He discussed his approach, and used the paint we had rather than have us buy more. Everything was done extremely well and we enjoyed having him here. We've used Welter Home Services a number of times and will certainly use them again when projects are beyond our skill levels!

I needed someone to help with repairs on a condo I have and Welter was quick to respond and get someone out to resolve the problem. I definitely will reach back out to them if I need repairs in the future.

I've used this service twice for minor home repairs for my elderly mother and have been very pleased with their responsiveness, professionalism and quality of work. I would definitely recommend this company for home repair needs.
I needed to have blinds that I bought online put up. He did an amazing job. I saved over $600-900 over quotes from blind makers. What a racket!
Welter Home Services has completed multiple projects for me, spanning several years. All have been completed efficiently with good communication and quality materials. I would highly recommend them for any repair needs.
Lighting installation does not have to be pricey, since in most cases, it needs most of the maintenance. Wiring installation? Consider it done. They are fully licensed electrical contractors that offer their services to residential and commercial customers.
They can repair any electrical installation, including a circuit breaker. They have fast response customer service that will cater to your problem. Their staff will set a schedule and amount of payment that will fit your budget.
If you need to troubleshoot any smart switches? The company has a professional electrician, will take care of them for you. The company also has easy payment options.
They accept debit or credit cards and cryptocurrency payments for their services. The company is extremely efficient in utilizing its time and fix everything within an hour.
Truly trusted and guarantees for any electrical services you want. I
I really recommended the Welter Home Services and believe me, you won't be disappointed with their job!
AMAZING SERVICE!! I had several jobs and Kevin and the team did an incredible job in taking care of them all! Very fair pricing, timely response, and expertise in a myriad of services! They will for sure be my first call for our next home project!!

Based on reviews from others, I guess they may be good. But in my case it did not go well at all from the start, or I should say it did not even start. We have small but multiple lighting and rewiring projects to be done at my residence and asked them for an estimate. They responded my online inquiry promptly and asked more information including taking pictures, which was the first week of September. After a few days of no action, I asked for update on estimate, and the office manager responded and said to me it would take two-three weeks because they have to sort out their October scheduling at that point. I simply trusted her words and waited for two weeks, but no response. I again contacted them to see what's going on, and they said they were going to look at it. A week past after that and again no response. Finally I told them its has been almost a month since I asked for estimate, and now the owner replied that he would look at it. As of today, there has been no response since. They just lost a potential customer that was ready to hire, who was even considering them for future projects we have been planning. It is unfortunate because most of reviews here are good, which was the mainly reason I waited for such long period to just get an ESTIMATE. It would have been nice if they let us know our projects are too small for them and they would not take it, rather than leaving a potential customer high and dry.
Kevin and Dan did excellent work partially remodeling our master bathroom. It looks fantastic! Kevin makes well thought out recommendations based on experience and know-how as a business owner and Dan is very capable in executing the job. We look forward to having them back for further home (condo) renovations. We will definitely be recommending Welter Home Services to our friends going forward.

My experience with Welter Home Services was top notch and professional from start to finish! Kevin quickly scheduled my appointment. I thought the price he quoted was fair and he did a great job. I absolutely love the end result, and would definitely call Kevin again!
Hard to schedule an appointment for even a simple estimation. Exchanged 15 ish emails to get on the schedule, scheduled for 3 weeks out, I confirmed last week and unfortunately Welter cancelled the appointment the day before. So much wasted time - they must be too busy for new business.
Kevin will soon be doing phase two of repairs for me. Phase one was amazing. I gave him a list and he and his team blew threw tile, doors, plumbing, etc. The processes were all explained and he is professional in all communications. You are going to hire an ethical pro here, what else can you ask for. He will make 100% sure you are a happy camper when all s done too. Again, his work is so good, I hired him back for round 2. I am selling my home and only trust him to repair the things needed to make it ready for market.
I would recommend this guy to my family and friends. He was very nice to work with. He responded to my questions in a reasonable time. He also worked me into his schedule which was great. I will definitely call Kevin again when I need another job done around my house.
Spoke with Kevin for 1/2 an hour to explain some projects I'm interested in getting quotes for. Caulking a small area in the bathroom, clean and/or paint a brick fireplace and my main issue finding the source of a leak. He asked my availability to come over and look at these things and said he would check his calendar and call me the next day. It has been 3 weeks and no word from him. I'm guessing these projects were things he wasn't interested in doing.
Our neighbor referred Kevin and we are happy to have met him! He has done so much maintenance to our home from the outside/ in! He's honest, experienced, and trustworthy. We plan on continuing our home services with him!

I was very happy with the work done by Welter Home Services. Kevin was easy to reach and communicate with, especially given how busy they are. Kevin and Dan put in a garbage disposal (including all necessary wiring/switching) and new closet doors for us, and we will be using them to re-tile our bathroom floor as soon as we decide on tile. They also replaced a shut-off valve for the kitchen sink, and when our main supply valve to the house got stuck (common on older houses), Kevin quickly coordinated a licensed emergency plumber and the Village Public Works department, to get the water shut off at the street and the main supply valves replaced immediately. I highly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
Wonderful experience. Prompt reply and very friendly and informative. I've already recommended to my relator for her clients. Try them out :-)
Welter Home Services has made repairs to my home for the past five years. The work is always done meticulously, and quality materials are used. The owner is easy to communicate with and responsive to special requests. Hassle-free customer service!
We hired Kevin and his team to handle some extensive drywall patching throughout our house. The crew was very professional and prompt, finishing the project on schedule and with the quality work that we expected. One of the best things is that they did an outstanding job cleaning up all of the dust and debris from the drywalling, which is not something that all contractors take the time to do. It's nice to work with a reliable company that offers a wide range of services, and we are planning to hire Welter again for future jobs. I would recommend Welter for any type of home repair.

Kevin is the best, I call him for any type of handyman work I need. He's always on time, does a good job and charges a fair price.
Kevin was a pleasure to work with. We had some damage to our kitchen and bathroom from a leaky pipe and had Kevin out to do the repairs. I couldnt be happier with the work he did. He was knowlegable, friendly and got the job done. He worked with my schedule to get the drywall and bathroom tiles replaced quickly even with the Thanksgiving holiday mixed in there.
He was able to come out to our house and give us an estimate and tell us exactly what he was going to do, how long it would take, and how much it would cost. He finished the work within the time and budget quoted. Our kitchen and bathroom look like there was never any damage to begin with.
I would definately recommend Kevin and will use him in the future for all our home improvements and repairs.
I wish I had found this company sooner. I bought a townhouse last year and have had a list of to-do's a mile long since moving in. I had no idea where to start. Now, I'm getting ready to move again and will be putting the townhouse up for rent. With a week left before moving, I desperately started searching for someone to help complete my to-do's. To be honest, I didn't even know handyman companies existed, I thought people just knew a guy. I am so happy to have found Welter Home Services, they are now my guy and I will recommend them to anyone who will listen.
Kevin contacted me very soon after I submitted an inquiry on Yelp. My desperation must have come across in our conversation because he was able to get me in his crowded schedule right away! His rates are extremely reasonable and the quality of service is worth every penny. Handyman Dan arrived at my house right when Kevin said he would. Dan is impressive. He's a very friendly guy with a huge amount of talent, I don't think there's any task he can't handle. And, best of all, he's a master at multitasking - the guy doesn't know the meaning of downtime, no dilly dallying with Dan!
Some of the tasks Dan completed for me include: mounting and testing a dishwasher, fixing the rolling mechanism and rescreening a sliding patio door, removing an old garbage disposal and installing a new one, correcting a drywall patch that someone else had done poorly, figuring out how my fireplace works and testing it out, stainblocking water stains in my ceiling, mounting a cabinet in my garage, and looking into a problem with my refrigerator. There may have been more to the list, but that's all I've got off the top of my head. I seriously thought this would easily be a 6-8 hour day, I was doubtful when Kevin quoted me 3-4 hours. However, Dan had it done in 4 hours! I'm still in disbelief.
So now my house is in the best shape it's ever been. Everything works, everything looks good. My only regret is not having found this company sooner so that I could enjoy my home in working order a little longer before I move.
If you've got anything lingering on your to-do list, call these guys. You will not be disappointed.
Bathroom remodel project a success thanks to Kevin! Call him for your next home project needs.
Can't recommend Welter Home Service enough! Kevin provided quality service at a very fair price. More importantly to me, he was always staying in communication with me and punctual. I would suggest you talk to him for any contractor needs and see for yourself!
For the work I needed done I felt that Welter Home Service was fairly priced, professional, and did a great job.
Best All Around Fix-it Guy!
I called Kevin because paint was falling off the ceiling in my bathroom....he knew exactly what I was talking about and said it was no problem to fix! He came out on a Monday and with all the tools and paint ready to get the job done! A few hours later my bathroom looked like brand new! He had his own vacuum and sucked up every bit of dust...he also wiped everything down with Windex! My bathroom looked cleaner then before he did the work!!!! I felt so comfortable with him in my home....I was able to leave and run errands without thinking twice about it! He told me the price up front, was honest and I trusted him fully! I just can't get over how clean and neat he was! He is a young, smart and respectable man! He even gave me tips on how to fix little things around my house myself! I will defiantly be using Kevin again and will call him for referrals for everything...if he can't do it...he has a friend who can! Thank you Kevin for fixing the huge eyesore that was causing me so much grief!
Great service. Kevin is knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. For the problem I was having, he assessed the situation and said no major repair would be needed. He came up with an alternative solution to fix the issue instead. I highly recommend Welter Home Services. The price was reasonable too.
Like most 50-year-old houses, my parents' home needed some fixing up. I made a punch list and called Kevin. He came out and gave me a very reasonable estimate, and did an excellent job on the home repairs.
Kevin is very knowledgeable. He takes pride in his work and also takes the time to explain different options for approaching a particular job.
I plan to hire Kevin again for some home upgrades. One of my parents' neighbors has since hired him for a woodworking project, and she has been very satisfied as well.
Kevin has become our go-to guy for home repairs and upgrades. I highly recommend him!

Kevin Welter of Welter Home Services is outstanding! We've had him to our house twice now to complete projects ranging from hanging a stained glass window pane to replacing light switches to fixing our storm door so that it latches properly. And so much more. He always comes up with great solutions to problems with our house we thought we'd never be able to solve! For instance, he noticed damage to our hardwood floor in the entryway and after asking a few questions about what we would like to see done, he laid out a common sense plan to repair it that would be simple and cost effective. Eureka, I say! That's just the type of person we need on-call to help us as we muddle through home ownership. We are relieved to have found such a competent, hardworking, and reasonably priced handyman whom we can TRUST in Mt. Prospect. We also have received some great referrals from him for our fireplace repairs/upkeep and our pending driveway and patio project. We are THRILLED to have found him! To say we highly recommend Welter Home Services is an understatement. He is essential around here!

I emailed & spoke with Kevin regarding adding an electric car charger in the garage. He went above and beyond in explaining my options along with providing a bit of education on the topic along with discussing the pros and cons of various configuration options. The call lasted about 15 minutes and I was left well informed of my next steps. His quote was also in line with what others charge.
I called for information on recaulking and was give an hourly rate. Kevin wasn't available for several days, but I said I would discuss the cost with my husband. Kevin called a couple of days later and I told him my husband wanted to give the project a try himself. Well that didn't work, so I called Kevin again to let him know we would like him to come out after all. I'm disappointed I didn't hear back from him. It would be nice to have a reliable handyman close by.
