Our Story
Founded in 2008 by Kevin Gilles, 25th Hour Services began with a simple idea: give homeowners an extra “hour” in their busy days. In 2012, as we shifted our focus toward retail and commercial clients, Kevin was shocked by the level of incompetence and lack of honor he found in this industry. Where he comes from, answering the phone, showing up on time, doing excellent work, communicating well, and doing honest business isn’t exceptional — it’s just the standard. That’s why we’re committed to bringing a heart of service to facility maintenance and restoring honor to the trades.
Today, we serve retail and commercial facilities across Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana — a self-performing team plus our flex team and trusted partners delivering everything from plumbing and electrical to painting, drywall, and emergency repairs. 18+ years of experience and a recall rate under 1% back up our commitment to quality, and our exceptional communication has made us preferred vendors for hundreds of repeat clients. We do business differently, and we want you to experience the 25th hour difference for yourself!
What We Believe
The Anatomy of Connection.
Three things drive every relationship we build — with clients, and with each other.
Heart
The emotional center that drives us to act with integrity and honesty in every job we take on — no matter how big or small.
Humility
Listening attentively, understanding different perspectives, and meeting people where they are — essential to actually solving the problem in front of us.
Honor
Doing what’s right, whether or not anyone is watching — no cut corners, no shortcuts, just the work done the way it should be.
What This Means for You
Values You Can Actually Feel.
A Real Person Answers
Not a call tree. Not a chatbot. A person who knows your account and takes ownership of your request.
We Show Up When We Say We Will
Scheduled within 24 hours, on-site within 4 for emergencies. Your time matters as much as ours.
Excellence in Everything
If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right — even when no one’s checking. That’s what honor looks like to us.
