About us

One call often provides you the solution to all your home fix-it and spruce-up needs. Inside and out. Currently, find reviews of my work under Handymen and Painting- Interior. I also do Carpentry, Masonry, Replacement Doors and Windows, Sheetrock, Tiling, Small Decks, Power Washing, etc, etc. Angie's List Super Service Awards for the last two years. I do most of the work myself, choosing not to carry the cost of employees, large equipment, heavy advertising, or other overhead that would drive headaches and prices up. Interior painting is a large part of my winter work. On larger painting jobs, I'll work with a partner who has been a meticulous painter for 30 yrs. Generally though, you deal with me personally, build trust in me, and I do the work. As a result, some projects may take longer because I am not bringing a large crew into your house. But on the other hand, I am always accessible to my clients and easy to talk to, and completely trustworthy to have in your home. References are available upon request. Insulated replacement windows and doors have become a larger part of my business lately, and they are an excellent improvement. Estimates are free, pricing is very fair (though little is truly cheap these days), and the quality of the work and excellent. My home base is in Verona, and my work area is limited approximately a 10 mile radius from there. Any questions, give me a call. Thanks, Steve

Steve is one of the best handymen you will find. He is honest, reliable, and makes sure the job is always done right. We have now worked with Steve 5 or 6 times, most recently for painting of a few interior rooms in our old house before we put it on the market in July, and painting a few more in our new house in September when we moved in. Steve is extremely dependable, gets the job done on time, and in many cases is happy to lend advice to help improve quality, save money, or in many cases, both. It has been invaluable to us to have his help on a number of our projects over the years, and we'll be sure to call him the next time, as well.

Steve did an excellent job. We found him to be very friendly, flexible and accommodating. He was very responsive in terms of returning our initial call and arrived when he said he would to provide us an estimate. He also showed up each day promptly. Steve is very professional, easy to work with and very reasonably priced. His overall quality of work is great and we will definitely hire him again.

Steve did a fabulous job and was very professional and easy to work with. My bedroom ceiling had suffered a large patch of water damage from a leak in the roof. It had been patched up by someone else (very poorly), and the patchwork was cracking and stood out very obviously from the rest of the ceiling. Steve fixed that then repainted the entire ceiling, and now it looks beautiful, like there was never any damage there at all. I also had other small things that needed fixing or repainting, and all his work is very well done. I have a busy work schedule and the ceiling work was going to require a few days so I gave him a set of spare keys so he could get the work done. He was completely trustworthy and very reliable, responded very quickly to my phone calls and got the work done in a timely fashion. His prices were very reasonable. I will absolutely call him again if/when I need more work done.

"Thank you [member name removed]. And just to clarify for other readers of this, the job was to tear off the existing deck planks, and some rotted skirting, and repair/replace with Timber Tech planking - a composite decking comparable to Trex."

He worked very clean every time. He would clean after everyday. He was very flexible. He provided some suggestions that were very helpful. He brought someone else in who was very personable and easy to work with. The paint was getting spotty on the ceiling but he went above and beyond to fix it, he put many coats on it.
Response from Today's Home LLC
"The nice review is appreciated. I want to address the cost though. Just to clarify, the price also included pulling down a suspended ceiling and putting up a new sheetrock ceiling, with chases built to surround existing ductwork. There was substantial peripheral work as well."

Both Steve and his "helper" Mike were friendly and professional.  They addressed any issues or concerns we had during the job.  The price we paid was less then other quotes we received from painters who had crews.  Steve honored a 10% discount from Angie's list for labor and used a high quality paint (according to the paint store).  Another painter said he would give me a deal by using a higher quality paint.  This was the same paint that Steve used.  The job took longer then it would have with the other painters but the time frame worked for us.  Steve also did several "handyman" jobs for us and we were equally satisfied.   We plan to use Steve in the future for other jobs around the house.

All the work was done to our satisfaction. Steve is timely, came exactly when he said he would, and worked a full day.  He was honest about what he could do, and what he suggested we hire a specialist to complete.  He worked steadily and neatly. We felt we got excellent value for his services (he charges by the day) and will definitely use him in the future.
Our "to do" list was finally accomplished... and we felt a big sigh of relief - but of course being home owners, once we finished with this task list, and Steve left we saw more items that could be done... but now instead of saying "we'll get to it next weekend" - we are just going to start a new list and call Steve when we have a day's work...

Steve Brothers is the owner of Today's Home, LLC.  As a handyman and a painter, Steve is a Gem.  He is resourceful, and very knowledgeable around the older house,  so I often count on his consultation and advice for choosing a solution for my problem.   During the past 2 1/2 months, as listed in the previous section, he has completed many different jobs and projects., large and small, for my new home, all with excellent  performance.. I trust him for all the projects he did and will do.   His dedication to produce only the best work results is evident:  .
     Steve kept time as agreed previously.
     I will continue to call him for more work, as long as he is available.

Steve did a very good job, and cleaned up after the days work.  He works by himself.  The job took a little longer than expected due to the fact he was comitted to other jobs in between and the panels had to be special ordered.

Steve responded to phone calls and email in a very timely manner, and showed up promptly when he said he would.   The estimate was reasonable and the final bill with materials was as expected.  We are very pleased with our experience and have even hired him to do a couple of other jobs in the house. I will definitely use Steve for other jobs going forward.

We had a terrific experience with Steve Brothers, and I recommend him strongly and happily. We moved into our 70 year-old home in August. We hired Steve to paint the interior and do some minor home repair work. As he worked, we discovered more tasks that needed attention, and he was always able to accommodate us in a timely fashion. Even as we changed our minds about colors, he was flexible and encouraging, keeping the cost down while making sure the job was done right. After the major work was done, he returned to do touch-ups, leaving the house looking almost brand new inside. We gave him a key to the house so he could work as he wished. I consider him trustworthy, timely, resourceful, and professional in all ways. As homeowners always have some new issue to address, i am sure we will be calling Steve in the future to help us out again.

The foyer paint job went quickly and was done very neatly and carefully. Steve honored his quote despite the need for unanticipated multiple coats of paint - and we used expensive paint! The foyer and staircase look beautiful, and I receive compliments on the room every time someone comes to the house. Steve also custom built a radiator cover (and painted it to match the trim in the room) for the gi-normous radiator in our living room - I had called several online places that sell them, and the quotes were astronomical (and did NOT include shipping costs). Steve's quote was EXTREMELY reasonable, and he installed it himself! I think it is beautiful, and finishes the room. AND I don't have to look at the very ugly, but necessary radiator underneath. Thanks, Steve!

With a quickly growing toddler, I found myself in urgent need of childproofing of my home, and being in the middle of an adoption, I needed immediate repair to my fire alarm system, due to safety issues and an anticipated inspection from a social worker. I called several supposed handyman services, who basically laughed at me and said they didn't have the time - it wasn't worth the effort for them. Needing all of this to happen yesterday, I called Steve. He heard my request and actually listened to my situation, and was able to rearrange his schedule to accomodate me. He arrived when he said he would, worked quickly, and used plenty of creative problem solving when it came to my alarm system - which he also figured out as well. Needless to say, I passed my inspection with flying colors, and couldn't have done it without Steve. I appreciate his considerable skills, and his sensitivity to my situation as well. His prices are extremely fair, his quality of work is exellent, and I plan to continue to work with him. I highly recommend Steve at Today's Home, LLC!

We had several estimates for the job, some looked and didn't want to put in the effort & told us right away. Steve arrived when he said he would. He gave us an honest estimate. Started on time & put in a full day's work each day until done. No house damage, beautiful results. Steve was trustworthy, got along with our 145 lb. dog (a must!), reliable & did a great job. Would we hire him again? We already have the next project lined up. Thanks, Steve!
