Handyman doing light plumbing, electrical, moving, assembly, and general home repair. No remodeling or construction. I've been doing many types of repairs for over 30 years. Prompt response and on time to job sites.

"Mike has been an excellent friend and worker for me. I'm so thankful to have found him to take charge of returning a rental house into a prospective home to list on the market. He does great work, responds and communicates well. He's surprised me on a couple of occasions by taking care of some items I thought would require many more dollars to hire a contractor. I didn't mention I live 2,000 miles away from the rental, so it's been a godsend to have Mike onboard. Great guy, does great work."

Welcome! Santos Construction LLC is a family operated company with over 15 years of combined experience in the residential construction area. We are known for providing the very best quality and professional services to the suburbs and Chicagoland area. We specialize in interior and exterior remodeling services such as: Interior Remodeling • Complete Framing • Additions • Dormers • Trim work • Doors • Complete Kitchens • Complete Bathrooms • Drywall • Painting • Subflooring/Flooring Exterior Remodeling • Siding • Hardie Board • Fascia • Soffit •Window installation • Window Capping • Deck/Porch Work • Garages • Sidewalks Shoot me a message or give me a call for any questions Best regards, Jose Soto -President of Santos Construction, LLC

"I began the project on Angi to switch out 2 old bathroom faucets for new ones. I explained the scope of the project in my angi query but also individually to Jose, owner of Santos construction, once he reached out. He provided me a fair price of 300 and we agreed to schedule the work for Monday, October 27. On that date, he was hours late and arrived around 8pm. I had the new faucets, and supply line kits set out for him and he got to work. The installation of the new faucets took about 2-3 hours. I paid him via personal check for the agreed amount and he left. He left quite a mess in the bathroom, a trash can full of water, and used 2 entire rolls of toilet paper to soak up some mess which were also left aside for me to pick up. It wasn't a huge deal but I wish he would have communicated the need for towels, paper towels or that he'd left a mess. The next day, Tuesday, I texted him at 7:30am because one of the faucets was dripping heavily and consistently all night long. He responded that he would return on Saturday. Saturday came and Jose said he was held up and could not come to fix the dripping faucet but could come Monday. I was growing irritated with the week of a leaking faucet and concerned about the wasted water and expense but we scheduled his return for monday evening. Monday evening Jose texted that he could not come. I suggested the next day and he said he couldn't return until Thursday. I expressed my concerns about my water bill and how delaying the correction of the issue was a problem. He committed to coming Thursday and said he wasn't sure why is was leaking because the valves were closed. On Tuesday morning, we realized that the other sink had been leaking profusely underneath, into the cabinet. Many toiletries and small appliances had sat in water for a week and were ruined. I immediately contacted Jose and asked him to return to fix both of his installations that day. I said I couldn't wait until Thursday with this major leak. He said he couldn't come but would come Thursday or try for Wednesday night. I contacted a plumber because I was concerned about the water leaking into rhe cabinet, and potentially the floor beneath them. The plumber found that one faucet had a peice of plastic and Styrofoam in it which caused the dripping and the other faucet had a valve left loose and open causing the major leak and subsequent damage. The cost of the plumber to fix the major errors by Santos Construction was $379.00! I contacted Jose and sent him the invoice from the plumber. I asked him to refund me what I paid to him so that I could apply it to the cost to fix his work. He refused and said there was no reason to contact a plumber since he was going to come back in the next day or so. I explained that he wa scheduled to return 3 times and the issues were worsening, and that I couldn't let water keep leaking into the cabinet, floor, and ceiling below while hoping he comes back. I would like Jose to refund me the $300 I paid him so that I can apply that to the $379.00 cost of the plumber to correct his apprentice or novice level errors. Both of the leaks, damage to our things and extra costs to plumber, were completely preventable had he not been negligent the night he installed them."

Furniture & Equipment Assembly (indoor and outdoor). Hanging: Stuff, not people, OK? Have Tools, Will Travel. We specialize in RTA (Ready-To-Assemble) furniture: All major brands; IKEA, Sauder, Bush, West Elm, South Shore, All the lines carried by Walmart, Target, etc, and the on-line companies; Amazon, Wayfair, Overstock, etc. We also assemble fitness equipment, outdoor playsets and storage sheds (assemble a Shed from a kit--Yes, build a shed from uncut lumber, not so much). We can also do disassembly & reassembly for moves within the greater Chicago area. Certificate of Insurance, or being listed as Additional Named Insured, available upon request. In 2015, we added picture hanging, mirror installation, and art installation as a service for our customers due to demand. We travel with specialty hooks, d-rings, lightweight picture wire, heavyweight (100 LBs rated) wire, and some aircraft-grade wire-rope rated at over 1,000 LBS. We do not charge for the small hooks, or for placing wire on the backside of lightweight frames. Artwork from IKEA, or on-line vendors often has no hardware at all on the backside. We have specialty levels, and we use the Yellow Frog Brand tape (delicate) to place our marks on walls. We also work with heavy wall items (i.e. large mirrors, wall sculptures, floating shelves, wine-racks, and the assorted DIY wall-mount garage and closet storage systems). We still mount Flatscreen Televisions every now and then.

"Really great. I believe some paintings did not need drilling holes in the wall but its done."

Playground Equipment questions, answered by experts

The average lifespan for a playset is around eight to ten years, but you can probably make it last to 15 years with good weather conditions and proper maintenance. If you’re purchasing a pre-made playset, some brands offer warranties for up to 25 years—long after your kiddos are grown.

Rubber mulch is widely considered the best material to place under a playset. This material option provides more cushioning than traditional wood mulch for added protection, remains cooler than sand and most other materials in direct sunlight, and it’s low maintenance. Rubber mulch is slightly more expensive than other common options at $120 per cubic yard on average, whereas pine bark mulch is $30 per cubic yard. But when it comes to your children’s safety, the investment is worthwhile. Consult your playground equipment installation company about material recommendations before starting this project.

So long as your court and hoop dimensions are the same, any basketball player can get a great workout and improve their skills on an indoor or outdoor court. However, you might consider using or building an indoor court if you live in a particularly rainy or windy area, as this can make it difficult to play outdoors.

Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The average cost to build a swing set is $514, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require—if you don’t want to give up your weekend, it’s worth considering buying instead of building.

Material markup costs and labor expenses are the additional primary costs of hiring a playground installer over building your own set. Labor costs are typically less costly than some more specialized home improvement projects. DIY swing set construction is less expensive than professional installation but will take considerably more time and effort to perform.
