Working in home and condo remodeling for the last 14 years, I have had my hands in all aspects of construction.From demo and framing to painting and hanging pictures, I’d be happy to help you with whatever project at hand. Living on Maui for the last 20 years, I try to implement “aloha” into everything I do. Now that my wife and I have picked up and moved from the Valley Idle to the treasure valley, it was time for me to start working for myself. Bringing quality work with the aloha spirit to the treasure valley!
"Sam did a great job with good communication, honesty and integrity. He arrived on time, did the job efficiently and well done. Thank you Sam, I'll definitely keep you in my contacts for any future work. Much appreciated brother."

"Brandon and his team at 208 Specialties did a HUGE heated paver driveway project for me and they nailed it! Everyone on the team was great to work with and they did a fantastic job. Brandon was friendly throughout the whole process and flexible along the way. They not only did the pavers, but they embedded the electric heat cable so my driveway stays nice and clear even in Donnelly winters! I can’t say enough about them and would highly recommend them for your next landscaping or paver project!"

"We hired Paradise Landworks to do the excavation for our home that we were building. As a first time homebuilder, I had a lot of questions and was unsure about some phases of the project. However, Jesse was very knowledgeable and helpful. He helped get our project going and did a great job with the excavation. It made the concrete work a lot simpler with a perfectly smooth and level base to work off of and he did a great job with our backfill. He went the extra mile to remove the abundant number of rocks we have on our property. I would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future. "

Installing an outdoor water fountain costs $2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features.
Check out the price ranges of common fountain types:
Birdbath fountains: $40 to $1,100

Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000

Upfront and maintenance costs can escalate quickly.
Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
