Mr. WaterheaterGreat service. Very professional
Same day service. Installation of the water heater and pressure regulator was completed in about 1-1/2 HRS and was done well.
excellent service!!
South Hills Electric LLC Heating & CoolingExcellent service.
Budget Pest Control, Inc.We have used their services several times, and it's always a good experience. Of course, no one wants a plumbing emergency, but they were able to come out very soon after we called, and worked quickly to fix the problem. They were careful to clean up, and to wear protective shoe covers. Also,...
Corsillo Plumbing & Sewer Cleaning CoThe service went very well. I gave them very specific instructions that I wanted them to follow, and they took the time to listen and follow my plan as closely as possible.
The service was really professional. He came in explained everything before they did it. They needed pvc cleaner, so they had to go get some mid fix.

Looking for a top-notch handyman in Pittsburgh? Look no further than Chris Jackson's Contracting. As an owner-operated business, we take pride in delivering exceptional results. Our award-winning team is ready to tackle any job, and we offer flexible scheduling options. Contact us today for all your handyman needs!
"The deck, chandelier, handrail, and UV projects were done in October. The windows required a special order and were installed on two consecutive days in December. Mr. Jackson and his employees did an excellent job. They are efficient and courteous, and left the work areas very clean. Chris is knowledgeable and has a good sense of humor. It is difficult to make a definitive price comparison, as we did not get estimates from other contractors, but we trust Chris—I had hired him for work on a previous house—and feel that his prices were very fair and reasonable. Casement windows are expensive and we expected that; the new ones are excellent. While here to do the windows the guys also moved a heavy chest from the garage up to our second floor, a task we could not have done ourselves. We can highly recommend Chris Jackson’s Contracting. This review should have been posted long ago, but better late than never."

Installing an outdoor water fountain costs $2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features.
Check out the price ranges of common fountain types:
Birdbath fountains: $40 to $1,100
Cascading fountains: $40 to $2,000
Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000
Kugel fountains: $150 to $5,000

Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
