Handy Cody
About us
No job is too big or too Small, I can get the job done. I recently graduated from Illinois State University with a degree in History and Political Science, but this is the work I enjoy doing. I have had my business for 3 years now and now that I am done with school I am ready to grow it bigger. I have done just about everything but I primarily focus on work outside around the yard during the summer.

First couple of weeks were good. On the third week they trimmed the bushes and did a good job. The following two weeks they only mowed and edged the front yard. The two weeks following no service was provided. When hired I attempted to pre-pay and was told no that they would send me a monthly bill. In the 3rd week with no service I hired a new service. The day after the new service had done the yard Cody called and I told him that due to missing the past two weeks and not taking care of the back yard for the two weeks prior to that I had hired a new crew. I told him he could bill me for the services he had provided. He apologized for the problems.
If he had at least called to explain why they could not service me for 2 weeks prior to the fact and I could have told him about the back yard not being mowed this could have turned out differently.
I hope that Cody can get to the other projects we've discussed - right now the rain is falling at such frequent intervals that he's working tons of hours to keep up with that work.
fax line works but not where I wanted it and phone line doesn't work where I needed it
cable line is fine
He was to do other work for me but he had an injury and never called me back afterwards to do rest of stuff.
my yard. I was amazed at how neat & clean my property was when he was finished. He caulked around my entire chimney, not just the area that was worn. I could hear him chipping the ice out of my gutters & he worked on that for a long time.
Cody is a very nice & professional young man. I highly recommend him & will definitely be calling him back on a regular basis.
I paid him more than what his invoice was as I was very happy with his work & he worked for such a long time.
I thought he was professional, polite, and did what he said he was going to do. I also thought his fee for the services was more than fair. I actually paid him more than he asked because I was very happy with his work.
I will hire Cody again in the spring to help with various duties around my house and yard.
