Jeff promptly returned my call and offered to repair the leak the next day (May 10th) at no charge! Another service would likely have charged $50-100 to do the job. Way to go, Jeff!

They understood how flummoxed I was and how urgently I needed it done. Through not fault of their own (or mine) they had to come back 3 times before it was done -- each time, they did everything possible to work me in around their existing schedule to get it all done as quickly as possible. Both the plumber, Scott, and the woman on the other end of the phone were super nice and efficient. Price was less than I feared, and Scott had very good suggestions for optimizing my kitchen plumbing design. I would definitely recommend them, and expect to use them again.

"Net Zero Design has earned my utmost admiration for their exceptional work on a recent project â a remarkable 3-bedroom addition to my Vermont home. As someone deeply committed to sustainability and energy efficiency, I couldn't be happier with the outstanding results.

The integration of WiFi-enabled Smart Lighting, Heat Pumps, Heat Pump Water Heaters, and a Standby Generator showcases their commitment to cutting-edge technology that not only enhances comfort but also minimizes environmental impact. The team's expertise in energy-efficient design is truly commendable. The WiFi-enabled Smart Lighting system not only adds a modern touch but also contributes to energy savings. The Heat Pumps and Heat Pump Water Heaters provide efficient heating and cooling, ensuring optimal comfort while significantly reducing energy consumption. The inclusion of a Standby Generator reflects their foresight and dedication to ensuring uninterrupted power supply, especially in Vermont's challenging weather conditions. This thoughtful addition adds an extra layer of reliability and peace of mind. Throughout the project, communication was excellent. The team kept me informed about the progress, and their attention to detail was evident at every stage. Despite the complexity of integrating advanced technologies, the project was completed efficiently and surpassed all expectations. Net Zero Design's ability to deliver a stunning, energy-efficient addition that seamlessly blends with the existing structure is truly remarkable. This project has not only elevated the functionality of my home but has also significantly reduced my environmental footprint.

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.
There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs.
Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.
Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.
Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.
Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.
Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.
Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.
Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.
Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.
The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size.
Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
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.
