The problem
Chasing five vendors for one building
How we handle it
One number, one account manager, one invoice. We self-perform carpentry, drywall, painting, doors, hardware and electrical, and manage the specialty trades ourselves.
For commercial property managers
Your buildings, off your plate.
Ricks Contracting runs the maintenance side of commercial portfolios — office, retail, industrial and mixed-use. One point of contact, documented work orders, and trades that show up when a tenant is waiting.

The problem
Surprise capital costs
How we handle it
Scheduled preventive maintenance and annual condition reports mean failures get budgeted, not discovered at 2am.
The problem
No paper trail at audit time
How we handle it
Every visit is logged with photos, technician notes, time on site and materials used — exported monthly for your owner reporting.

Getting started
How a maintenance plan comes together.
Step 01
Building walk
We tour every property in your portfolio and record assets, ages and known problem areas.
Step 02
Maintenance calendar
A twelve-month schedule of preventive tasks with a fixed monthly rate, so budgets hold.
Step 03
Single intake
Tenants or your team email or call one line; we triage, dispatch and confirm back to you.
Step 04
Monthly reporting
Completed work orders, photos, spend against budget and a list of items to plan for.
Insurance & compliance
$5M general liability, full workers' compensation coverage, and current certificates on file for every property we service. WHMIS and fall-protection trained crews.
Transparent pricing
Fixed monthly rate for the preventive program, published hourly rates for reactive calls, and pre-approval thresholds you set so nothing gets billed by surprise.
Tenant-friendly crews
Uniformed, badged technicians, clean work areas, after-hours scheduling for noisy work, and direct tenant communication when you want us to handle it.
