"Excellent. I reached out to Ivan late Sunday afternoon, the day before a holiday. He called me right back and came right over! He was very professional, courteous and the price was great. We needed to change air conditioners to fit the window. We purchased the correct one and he came over at 8am on a Holiday and installed the unit!. I would highly recommend Ivan for handyman services and will be using him regularly for my home improvement needs Bianca Q."

"Amazing experience! Great communication and professionalism. Scheduling was so easy, and they showed up exactly on time (even a few minutes early!). They were able to accommodate a specific window last minute. They installed a picture frame light and built an outside patio storage in the same visit, and ALSO helped move a rug from under the bed. I have used many services in the past and am blown away by the professionalism and customer service with this set of folks. Will be reusing many times in the future !"

"These guys are great. Very professional and nice guys. My stairs were a nightmare for over ten years. They were too steep with 6 steps, so they extended to 8 steps and bulked it up. I can't rave enough. They're all work and know what they're doing. I have many more projects I'll be requesting they do. Highly recommend. You won't be disappointed."

"I would do this again, and the electrician was very hard working.  He did all that I wanted.  The only issue was he made a ceiling fan way too low and I had to have my father shorten the pole for me.  The electrician should have done that himself.
But overall I was happy!

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.

There are many different types of basketball hoops available to choose from. 

  • Portable hoops are fully moveable and generally do not require assistance with assembly. 

  • Semi-portable in-ground hoops have an anchor cemented in the ground and a removable post.

  • In-ground hoops are fully built into the ground as one piece and cannot be relocated after placement. 

  • Wall-mounted hoops do not have a post or pole and work well when space is limited.

You can start by finding playground installers in your area that have amassed mostly positive reviews online. Next, search for the companies on the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to see if any consumer complaints have been filed. Once you rule out companies with poor reviews and a history of complaints, contact the remaining options and ask the following questions to find the right installer for you:

  • Will you pull permits if required?

  • Do you offer a warranty?

  • How long do you expect the installation to take?

  • Do you have experience working with the specific playground material I want?

The cost of the materials to build a DIY playground will run you about $700 to $1,000, which could vary based on the type of lumber you choose to use. On the other hand, buying a pre-made playset costs $1,000 to $6,500 or more, and if you choose to have it professionally installed, you’ll pay an additional $330 to $700.

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.
