Jason Hammond — home repair and remodeling consultant.

Software engineer by day.
Home repair and remodeling since age 12.

Over four decades I've fixed leaks and replaced fixtures, gutted and rebuilt kitchens, finished basements from bare studs, converted attics into usable living space, and chased down every mystery noise and smell a house can produce — all in my own homes, none of it hired out.

The name says it all: RE stands for Real Estate — your most valuable asset. Engineered is how I approach it. I use the same systematic thinking I apply to software — diagnose, sequence, fix — to help homeowners RE-engineer their Real Estate the way I have mine.

Whether something's broken and you can't tell how bad it is, or you're planning a project and don't know where to start, I'll give you a clear read. Send photos and a few sentences and you'll have a written diagnostic in your inbox within minutes. You'll know:

  • What's actually broken — and what isn't
  • Whether it's worth fixing, worth replacing, or worth leaving alone
  • Whether to DIY it, hire it out, or call a specialist
  • Which contractor you need and what's a fair price
