"Shannon provided excellent customer service and was very punctual.He did an outstanding job on the crown molding for the living room and hallways in our home. His pricing was reasonable and we are very satisfied with the quality of work he provided."
"I needed someone who could get the job done right and would be reasonably priced, needless to say my expectations were exceeded. The attention to detail was phenomenal, the customer service was great. Any questions I had were answered in detail and anything I didn’t see coming was explained before hand. If you want another guy who only cares about the money go with someone else. If you want someone who cares about the job being done correctly more than you do, this is the guy to hire."

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:
Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom
Replacing plumbing pipes
Installing or repairing septic systems
Running new electrical wiring
Installing a subpanel
If a contractor is in breach of your contract, sometimes it is possible to collect damages for unreasonable delays. However, such claims can be expensive and difficult to prove. If there’s a way to complete the work and maybe negotiate for a discount for some of the inconvenience, that might be a simpler and cheaper way to resolve any disputes.
You can find a reliable handyperson by looking at professionals in your area and ruling out companies with poor reviews online. Next, check each handyperson on the Better Business Bureau to see if they have a history of complaints and rule out those that do. Finally, you can contact each handyperson to ask the following qualifying questions:
What is your hourly rate?
Are there any jobs you can’t tackle?
Are you fully insured?
How many years of experience do you have?
Do you have references I can contact?
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.
