"Jose Aritas and his crew are top-notch: professional, pleasant, and efficient. Jose responded quickly to our inquiry on Angi, and came the next day to estimate our job (painting the interior front half of the house, including the ceiling, and also minor master bathroom remodeling). They were ready to go as soon as the new countertop and plumbing fixtures arrived. He kept us informed, arrived on time with his amazing crew of 6 pros, and had the work done within two days.

Handy Hicks Repairs is committed to our clients needs, set the bar higher than our competitors, and integrity in all aspects of the work we do. If you have a need. We can help provide a solution for that need. From small handyman services to full scale remodels. Check out our photos of the past work we have done.

"We had a plumbing leak and received 4 or 5 quotes to repair the walls and ceiling in the aftermath. Bryan did a great job administratively. He communicated effectively, and presented us with a professional and very cost effective quote. Jeremiah, who performed the contracted work, was polite and cordial. He also did an amazing job executing the task, which involved drywall repair, ceiling re-texturing, painting, reseating a toilet, and cleaning the areas he worked in when finished. I would certainly hire them again for household repairs too big to handle on my own. "

We run four crews to better serve the community. We work out of several local supply houses, but have four bathrooms and a kitchen on display at Eagle Tile (On Fern hill behind Glenbrook Mall) on which our guys completed all the work. Therefore, potential clients can see the quality of our work first-hand, while not having to pay the overhead for the showroom which normally means lower prices than our competitors but the highest quality standards in the industry. Our company is also certified by the EPA for lead based paint removal. Additional contact names - Stephen Neeley, Melanie Neeley. Additional DBA - Serenity Kitchen. Additional email - [email protected]. Award winning. Award wining.

"I am very pleased with the kitchen remodel done by Serenity Kitchen and Bath. I LOVE the finished product. They did a wonderful job and are wonderful people to work with. I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing a remodel done."

"It went really well, at every turn! The sales people were helpful and courteous. The installers were professional, skillful and tactful. The windows are beautiful. Everyone was on time and if anything delayed an arrival - in our case, weather stalled the installation by a day, the staff was in touch with me and communicated the delay and the reschedule. It was a delight to work with them."

"While their installation went well, their customer service is awful. Almost 1 year later, I get a bill for a service charge even though their tech said it will be waive by buying the central air conditioner. I had to call 2 separate times arguing with them to get it corrected. The VP Steve was not as helpful as you think he would be. I would not recommend to anyone."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Lifting a house and adding a basement is one way to add usable square footage. Lifting or jacking a house is a complex process, and it can be expensive, not to mention that you won’t be able to live in your house while it’s lifted, due to safety concerns. Lifting a house should only be done by experienced professionals.

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.

Assuming you are going for a full remodel for an average-sized basement with a reputable contractor, the process can take up to two weeks or more. Remember that basements have many stairs and often difficult access—it’s not like working in the entryway. The shuttling of materials, increased need for ventilation and safety precautions, and making sure everything can be removed through a doorway all increase time and cost.

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?
