Exterior Plans

The outside of a Pacific Northwest house takes the worst of the year — eight months of rain on the gutters, three months of moss creeping back across the north roof slope, a winter of pollen and shingle grit on the driveway, a deck that loses a screw every wet season. Handis exterior plans roll that punch list into a schedule that actually runs — annual roof and gutter visit, quarterly pressure-wash plan, and deck care plan, from $500 for a single annual visit to $2,400 for a full year of quarterly washes on a larger property. Same vetted handyman year over year, notes carried forward from the last visit, member labor rate on any add-on work the tech does on the same trip.

Pricing

Exterior Plans Pricing

Plan pricing depends on home size, roof height, gutter linear footage, driveway and patio square footage, deck size, tree exposure overhead, and how many programs you bundle. Members pay member labor rate on add-on work the tech does during a plan visit and skip the per-visit trip charge. Each sub-category page lists detailed pricing for that program.

Send us the roof height, driveway square footage, and deck size — we will quote the year.

Why Seattle Homeowners Book Handis Exterior Plans

Most exterior subscription pitches load the brochure with line items nobody ever needs and skip the boring work that actually prevents the failures — the downspout flush, the moss treatment before the wet season starts, the joist-hanger check under the deck, the soft-wash chemistry on vinyl instead of raw PSI. Our exterior plans do the opposite. The visit list is short, weather-specific, and focused on the failures we see in Pacific Northwest homes year after year. Same crew, same notes, same opinion about what to do next — and a clear handoff to a licensed contractor the moment a request crosses out of the handyman trade.

Estimate

Tell us roof height (single or two-story), approximate gutter linear footage, driveway and patio square footage, deck size and material (cedar, pressure-treated pine, composite), tree exposure overhead, and which exterior plans you want to bundle. We will send back a clear annual estimate with the visit calendar.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Handis exterior plans — pricing, scope, scheduling to PNW weather, what plan visits cover, and what routes to a licensed Washington L&I contractor.

How much do exterior plans cost?
The Annual Roof + Gutter Plan starts at $500 for a single-story home, $750 for two-story, and runs up to $1,200 for a heavy-tree property under mature oak or Douglas-fir. The Deck Care Plan starts at $500 for the spring inspection and screwdown alone, $950 with an end-of-season stain coat on a deck up to 300 square feet, and up to $1,300 on a wrap-around or larger deck. The Quarterly Pressure-Wash Plan starts at $900 for four standard seasonal visits, $1,800 with a once-a-year two-story siding soft wash bundled in, and up to $2,400 on a premium multi-surface property. You get a clear annual estimate with the visit calendar before any plan starts.
Can I combine exterior plans with seasonal or membership plans?
Yes — most members do. A common Seattle stack is the spring and fall seasonal packages, the monthly handyman membership, the annual roof and gutter visit, and the quarterly pressure-wash plan. The plans are designed to layer; a fall membership hour can roll into the late-fall gutter clean and the spring seasonal visit can fold the deck inspection into the same trip. Combined estimates are cheaper per visit than the same plans bought separately. Bundling is on the [Home Maintenance Plans](/services/home-maintenance-plans) hub.
How do you schedule plan visits to Pacific Northwest weather?
The Annual Roof + Gutter visit goes on the books for the late-summer dry window — usually late August through late September in the Seattle area, before the heavy leaf drop in October-November but after the wettest part of summer storms. Quarterly pressure-wash visits are timed against the seasonal deposits — late spring after the pollen, mid-summer before deck use, fall before the leaf piles, end-of-winter when the moss is at its worst. Deck stain coats wait for the 48-hour dry window with daytime temperatures between 50 and 90 degrees, typically late July through mid-September. The calendar bends to the weather, not the other way around.
What is NOT included in an exterior plan?
Roof replacement, full re-roof, structural roof or framing repair, flashing replacement requiring shingle removal, full gutter re-runs longer than a single damaged section, full deck rebuilds, ledger-board work, structural deck framing, new exterior electrical circuits, exterior gas work, chimney repointing, hardscape installation (new paver patio, new concrete pour), and any permit-required structural change. Those route to a licensed Washington L&I contractor — we name the issue in the visit photo report, recommend a contractor when we know one, and come back for the finish work after their rough-in if you want us in the loop.
Do you walk on the roof during the Annual Roof + Gutter visit?
It depends on the pitch and the surface. Standard composition-shingle roofs at 6:12 pitch or less get walked when the tech can move safely. Steeper composition roofs (8:12 and above), tile roofs, slate roofs, and metal roofs are not walked under any circumstance — we work from the eave with an extension ladder, fall-protection setup, and a longer-handled tool for the moss treatment. We do not pressure-wash composition shingles — that voids most shingle warranties and tears granules off the surface. Moss treatment is chemistry-only, applied during a dry window and rinsed naturally by the next rain.
Can I get the same handyman on every plan visit?
Yes — that is the default. Each plan member gets assigned a primary tech who runs the visits across the year and carries the notes forward. If the primary is out (vacation, illness, a backlog spike), a backup runs the visit with the notes in hand and the primary takes the next one. Single-property members usually keep the same primary tech for years. The continuity is the point of the plan — the second visit starts where the first left off, not from scratch.
What does the photo report include?
A dated set of photos from each visit — gutter trough before and after, debris pile on a drop cloth, downspout flush exit point at the splash block, roof flashing close-ups on every penetration walked, north-slope moss before and after treatment, driveway and patio before and after each wash pass, soft-wash chemistry dwell points on the vinyl siding, deck board screwdown close-ups, hardware refresh photos on rails and gates, and a one-paragraph tech summary. The report lands in your inbox the same day; the next visit starts from it.
What if I cancel a plan mid-year?
Annual programs run twelve months from the start date. If you cancel mid-year you keep using any remaining visits, banked hours, or plan benefits through the paid period — no proration penalty, no early-termination fee, just no auto-renewal at the end of the cycle. The Quarterly Pressure-Wash Plan and the Deck Care Plan rebook on a per-cycle basis; if you do not rebook the next year, the plan simply ends. We do not lock anyone into a contract that outlives the work.
Do you cover homes outside Seattle proper?
Yes — most of the Puget Sound region is in service area, from north Seattle and Shoreline through Bellevue, Redmond, Issaquah, Sammamish, Renton, Tukwila, Burien, and south to Federal Way. Vacation properties on the I-90 corridor (North Bend, Snoqualmie, Cle Elum) and the Hood Canal area are covered with a travel premium added to the plan price; we quote it before you sign. Outside that radius we tell you on the call whether the math works.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every Handis handyman is background-checked, insured, and on the hook for a 30-day workmanship guarantee on any work done during a plan visit — a gutter clean that re-clogs from debris we missed within 30 days, a moss-treatment pass that did not take, a deck screw we set that backs out, a soft-wash stripe on the vinyl that did not clear, a hardware refresh that loosens. We come back and fix it at no extra charge. The guarantee covers our workmanship; it does not cover new leaf-fall in the gutter, storm damage to the roof, a fresh oil drip on the driveway, or a deck failure unrelated to our hardware.
