Our Story and Values
Welcome to Cotton Home Repairs, Sheboygan's trusted name for professional, reliable handyman services. We're a locally owned small business founded by Joe Cotton, a resident who saw a huge need in our community. It's one thing to find a contractor for a $50,000 kitchen remodel. But what about a broken screen door, a ceiling fan replacement, or a loose handrail? That's why we exist. We specialize in the minor home repairs that other companies are too busy for. Our Core Principles are professionalism & integrity. We are not a "$30 cash under the table" hobbyist. We are a full-time, locally owned, licensed, and fully insured small business that operates with professionalism at its core. We use professional-grade software to manage work requests, provide clear estimates, track jobs, and send invoices. Our promise is simple - First: If we say we'll be there at 9:00 AM, we will be there at 9:00 AM. On the rare occasion an emergency prevents this, you will know well ahead of time—no more staring at an empty driveway wondering where your repairman is. Second: We value quality. Our standard for quality is straightforward - we complete every job as if we were doing it for a close friend or family member. Our founder, Joe Cotton, started out in a field where precision is everything: as an FAA-licensed aircraft mechanic. He later transitioned into project management, honing his skills in efficiency and communication. For over 20 years, Joe has been a go-to person for fixing everything from home repairs to vehicles and small engines—not to mention his kids' endless "Dad, this toy broke" requests. He brings that same meticulous, problem-solving mindset to every project at Cotton Home Repairs.
