We take great pride in our experience, expertise, quality, and customer service that we provide to meet the consumer's needs. It is our mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction, from the start to the completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"We hired Juan to installed new subway backsplash and remove old peel & stick backsplash from kitchen. Juan mentioned he was a little busy but will be able to take the job on and complete it on a timely manner. Juan installed the backsplash on a Friday evening after 4pm and worked until about 10pm to get the backsplash completed. Juan returned on Sunday after noon to complete the tile work after allowing mortar to dry. However, the issue was Juan did not wipe up access mortal and/or cleaned off the tile. Juan left drops of mortal on our floors (which we had just cleaned from Stanley Steamer). Juan left a few pieces opened-no tile is in those cracks. Juan left the tile backsplash with streaks from the sponge. And Juan did not apply border of caulking to the edges. Juan left tile with streaks and clumps of mortal around our cabinets, on tile and on the wall. After discussing these concerns with Juan he mentioned I was criticizing his work and his integrity. Juan mentioned he has not had a dissatisfied customer who have complained about his work. I mentioned to Juan my OCD kicked in and when we hire someone to do the work the expectation is to complete the work to customers satisfaction and clean up after you have completed your task for the day! Juan mentioned he will return to ensure we are satisfied and complete the work and neither less to say I received a text from Juan stating he will return $100 off the bill that was paid to us and he does not want to work for us! Bad customer services and not acceptable for any customer Very Disappointed"

Ive been in commercial framing and concrete for 5 years and residential concrete and framing for 5 years. I love delivering a product that's as close to perfect as possible. If I didn't I wouldn't sleep well...

My main areas of expertise are carpentry and steel fabrication but I do little bit of everything involving general remodeling and construction.

Hello All, My name is Eric Gonzalez, I’m an Army veteran and Union carpenter. I’m looking into working for myself and providing reliable, high-quality, affordable handyman services to local homeowners and small businesses while leveraging skills acquired from military service and professional carpentry experience. I aim to become the community's go-to provider for small repairs, maintenance tasks, and home improvement projects. By combining military discipline and union-certified carpentry skills, I will offer a trustworthy, efficient, and professional alternative to larger, impersonal service companies. I offer the following • furniture assembly (beds, desks, small appliances, shelves, etc.) • drywall repair and patching • TV mounting, mirror, art, picture, and décor mounting • Cabinet hardware installation (handles) • General home maintenance tasks

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

Reviewing your contract for termination terms is best when ending a relationship with a contractor. If there is nothing in the contract or you had a verbal agreement, communicate your decision in writing, citing specific reasons. Afterward, pay for the completed work per your original agreement. Remember you want a record of all correspondence in case you need a lawyer later to settle disputes.

Discuss design preferences and material choices before work begins for cohesive results.

It’s worth asking a handyperson a few questions before hiring to ensure they’re the right person for the job:

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have any references?

  • Will you provide a written estimate and contract?

  • How much do you expect materials to cost?

  • How long do you expect the project to take?

  • Do you have any questions about the projects on my list?

  • Do you provide a guarantee for the job?
