My toilets and drains began to over flow with feces and sewage. I called Ron’s, the company that has serviced me for years to help me in my most...
Snelton & Sons came highly recommended and for good reason! Our water has been sketchy for the past couple of weeks - sometimes not working at all, sometimes with pockets of air. Then the water completely stopped working! Agh!! They were short of employees this week but really went out of...
Terrific service and very personable. Will definitely hire them again for any plumbing need.
Mr. Rooter Plumbing NE IllinoisOutstanding Service!!! I woke up this morning to a pool of water at the base of the refrigerator. After determining it was something that required repair I began a search for a reputable provider. After my wife and I read a view reviews we decided to use A Absolute Appliance Repair since...
I would highly recommend them. They did excellent service. It was great to deal with for a pool company.
We noticed a few silverfish in our house early in the summer. Combined with a spider issue in our newly finished basement, we figured it was time to call a pest-control expert. I should have done my research before I called Orkin, because they charged me $250 for a one-month service (as I...

Welcome to Hargrave Investment Property Solutions, your full service Handyman professionals! We look forward to serving you!
"I hired Hargrave Investment Property Solution, to professionally dig 5 post holes using 8ft large, heavy steel posts. He was very inquisitive and made sure he understood what i wanted done. I tell you that young man was very professional, charismatic, attentive, knowledgeable, patient, precise and detailed. My posts are straight, even, lined up and the foot of the post he installed looks uniformed too. The young man Phillip knows what he is doing and is great at it. He took his time to make sure the measurements were spot on and he finished digging and installing all 5 post holes well under 3 hours. I will most definitely hire him again for any future projects. Also I would refer him to all my family and friends because not only does he know what he is doing, he is honest and trustworthy too. It was a privilege to have met and hire him. I am very good at judging people and he is a keeper. God bless him. Thank you Phillip.😊🙏"

"Edison from Land Brothers showed up on time, got right to work and immediately began cutting the screw heads. It took him no time at all to remove the screws and replace the bad deadbolt with a new one. He also seemed very trustworthy. He went above and beyond to work with my schedule to get in as quickly as possible to get the job done in time for a village inspection and closing on the sale of the home. I would definitely hire him again."

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
Cascading fountains: $40 to $2,000
Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000
Kugel fountains: $150 to $5,000
Glass wall fountains: $100 to $3,000
Consider the pros and cons of installing a water fountain in your backyard:
Pros
Fountains can add beauty to your backyard.
Creates a relaxing space to enjoy in your yard.
Water features can add more value to your home.
Cons
Regular maintenance is necessary.
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.
