"John was excellent and I highly recommend him. He rebuilt our breezeway and installed a beautiful wood ceiling in our family room. In particular, John: - was immediately responsive to our request for a quote; -provided the quote when he said he would; - followed up and answered questions we had; - provided an additional quote based on changes we made; - started the project when he said he would; - showed up every day; - minimized any inconvenience to us while working; - worked neatly and cleaned up every day; - completed the project on time and on budget! Working with John was a very pleasant experience. He is friendly, courteous, professional and an excellent communicator. His mantra is to make the customer happy. He checked with us at each stage of the project to be sure we were pleased. He is very detailed oriented and his work product is top notch. We would, and plan to, use John for future projects."

Edit 10/13/20 due to overwhelming demand I am not taking on new work at this time. The best way to reach me directly is to call or text 603.401.4496 or email [email protected]. I am a lifelong Salem, New Hampshire resident, and have been working in the field of home renovations for 20 years. My background in furniture design and fine arts led me into General Contracting, kitchen and bathroom design, handyman services and home remodeling. From "Honey-Do Lists" to full kitchen, bathroom and basement remodels, my reputation for efficient, detail-oriented, and quality workmanship is something I am extremely proud of and strive to maintain. Your home is your biggest asset, and I consider it a privilege when my customers invite me into their homes to repair and renovate them.

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

You can tackle hanging Christmas lights yourself with the right tools, accessories, and a trusted friend or neighbor. You’ll need to purchase a ladder ($100 to $300), clips ($10 to $20), hooks ($10 to $15), and lights ($25 to $100 per string).

Otherwise, you should hire a trusted holiday light installer near you. You’ll pay an average price of $200 to $650, but you’ll have peace of mind knowing that the job is done correctly and safely.

There are a few advantages to hiring a handyperson as a contractor, namely that they will likely charge less for their services since they don’t have as much overhead. A handyperson might also have more flexibility and be more involved in your specific home project, so you can communicate with one person instead of a subcontractor team.

Using a pro guarantees correct tools and expertise, preventing potential household mishaps.
