The Shadow
COVINGTON, VA (VR) – Covington has a new local business with deep roots in the community and a clear mission: to provide dependable, honest, and fair residential maintenance and repair services to homeowners in Alleghany and Bath Counties.
After years of experience in residential construction, owner Justin Whittington decided it was time to return to the work that first sparked a passion for the industry. “After 30 years, I felt a strong desire to return to residential repair,” Whittington said. “That’s what inspired me to establish J&L Residential.” While the business is solely owned by Whittington, it remains a family-run operation built on shared values and local commitment.
The company offers a wide range of services designed to help homeowners with everyday repair and maintenance needs. These include painting and wall repair, flooring, (with the exception of carpet) trim installation and replacement, minor electrical, and plumbing work, deck and porch repair, yard maintenance, debris removal, and exterior residential repair and maintenance. The community needs a business that is focused on smaller residential needs he added.
When asked what people should know most about J&L, the answer was simple: “We truly care about our customers and take great pride in serving our local counties.” That customer-first mindset is at the heart of the business, which was created in response to a real need in the community for a dependable company focused on smaller to average-sized home repair projects.
“Covington has been home to my family for more than 20 years,” Whittington said. “It seemed only fitting to open our business here and proudly serve the Alleghany and Bath County areas.”
For Whittington and J&L, opening in Covington is about more than business — it’s about giving back to the community they have long called home.
“Potential customers can expect professional customer service, free and timely quotes, in-person service, upfront pricing, and a true desire to complete the job right Whittington shared.” The company is also fully licensed and insured, offering customers added confidence and peace of mind.
“We look forward to giving back to the community that we proudly serve and hope to be a staple of Alleghany and Bath Counties for years to come Whitington went on to say.”
J&L Residential Maintenance and Repair enters the local market with a clear promise: quality work, and a strong commitment to the community. You can reach J&L by calling 540-960-1905.
