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

We wanted to get rid of the look of wood paneling in a bedroom where the paneling had been painted over and in some areas looked very bad. We also had some old windows which we wanted to replace.
Steve purchased the windows on our behalf and installed them. He recommended spackling the wall, based on our budget, as he advised that our old plaster walls may crumble if we took the paneling down completely. As it turned out his recommendation was a great one, you would never know there was paneling in the room, the walls look great, and every spot which needed repair was done thoroughly and effectively.
Steve was able to accommodate our schedule by working for four days while we were away on vacation. As we have a dog and needed some schedule flexibility, Steve made the project, and our lives, a whole lot easier by working with us on the timing of the project.
In addition to transforming the bedroom, Steve completed the job of patching, repairing, and painting an area in our dining room where an old air conditioner was recently removed - you would never know it was there in the first place.
Finally, he hung a large mirror which we were having trouble with. I had to insist on paying Steve for this, as he offered to just do it for free while he was doing the other work. This is emblematic of the kind of person Steve is.
Based on his quality of work, knowledge, price, and the fact that he's so easy to work with, we will definitely call Steve with our next project.
We observed that he worked carefully and with great expertise, paying careful attention to detail so that the heavy shelves were level and secure for loading. Working in his own well equipped workshop, Steve perfectly sized all the shelves, cut from sturdy panels of ¾ inch cabinet grade plywood, and also applied edging to each shelf for a finished look.
Steve is very personable, cooperative and accommodating, and provided expert advice when we would discuss minor changes as they arose. The work progressed very smoothly over seven days, Steve often using his own work shop as needed for sizing and cutting. At our request he easily repaired a leaking roof gutter.
We gladly recommend Steve for doing your home upgrades and repairs.
"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."
"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."
"Not sure how this got in my reviews. this is for work done in Florida apparently. Not me."
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 kept time as agreed previously.
I will continue to call him for more work, as long as he is available.
