Robert Rathbone Handyman Services 215N Cabot VT 802-522-6255 As of 7/31, I am closing to move, as I have sold my house, and I have a lot of work ahead of me. . Please call for services offered...I cannot change the list! Central Vermont's Premier Handyman Services Provider with over 35 years of experience in ALL aspects of building care and repair; both residential and commercial. A high quality job is visible, satisfying and lasting. It usually is not much more to do than 'splash and dash'. I have 5yrs receiving Angi's Super Service Award for Quality and Excellence, with 5yrs of perfect reviews. They aren't participation awards, and I'm proud to represent Angi. I have a 5 point philosophy of connecting with my clients. I call it: 'HITCH': -Honesty- Always be straight. -Integrity- Don't compromise on quality. -Transparency-Be clear on everything. -Communication- Means no surprises -Heart- Love the client. I would not be here without you. I encourage my clients to ask questions...I'll never talk down to you if you ask a question, as you deserve to know. If you see something you don't like with the job, please bring it to my attention immediately. I cannot correct what I don't know. It's not fair to either of us to have me finish something that you don't like or want... especially if you could have averted the problem earlier by simply asking "what the heck?" I don't mark up on materials. My job is install em, not sell em, but I am on the clock,at my lowest rate, to get them. My rates are:45$/hr for general work, 65 for technical work like plumbing/electrical/propane, and 85 for sewer line work, because nobody likes playing in poo. I don't mark up on materials. I am on the clock to get them, though. I have a 2hr minimum, in lieu of a service charge, so make a list! I have discounts for Veterans and Seniors.

"Robert fixed my dryer, which was not working correctly on and off over the last few months. He identified the issue quickly and got the job done in one visit. Hard work, done well."

Uncompromising quality and integrity in all of your precious metals purchases and sales. Specializing in gold & silver bullion. Avoid gold and silver retailers selling you their inventory at high premiums! We pay top prices for jewelry, sterling, diamonds and watches! Fisher Precious Metals is a national gold and silver dealer. Listed as a national dealer with the United States Mint, Fisher Precious Metals is a trusted resource for gold and silver coins and bars. Established in 1995, the firm works with individuals on all issues related to buying and selling physical precious metals, storage, security, estate liquidation and long-term exit strategies. John Fisher, the President, is an ICTA Board Member and is approved by the State of Florida to teach Continuing Education courses on precious metals investing to CFP's, CPA's, attorneys and insurance professionals. In addition, John is a frequent guest on various financial radio broadcast programs. Fisher Precious Metals is an A+ rated Accredited Business with the Better Business Bureau.

"It went great! We found Fisher Precious Metals on Angie's List, and after googling them, we found they had very positive reviews across the web. Although it was a 45 minute drive from our home, we felt it might be worth it, and it was. We made an appointment with John via email, arrived at 11:00, and spent just over an hour in his office. He evaluated the sterling silver set we had to sell and gave us what we felt was a very fair price. He'd given us an estimate on the value of the gold coins via email, and although the price of gold had fluctuated since he'd provided the quote, the final price was very, very close to the initial quote. We were happy to learn that they will also buy jewelry, as I have a few pieces I haven't worn in a very long time. We were very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely return to their company when we have gold or silver to sell, and we're happy to recommend them to our friends. One thing to keep in mind is that sterling silver sets are basically worth the price of the silver itself. We knew that going in, so we were not disappointed and, in fact, the price we received was a little higher than we'd expected."

Black Ox Roofing installs standing seam metal roofing on residential and commercial buildings using state of the art equipment. The fabrication process begins in our 5000 square foot work shop. Using accurate measurements obtained during a site visit, or from owner supplied architectural plans, we are able to compile a list of the necessary components for each roof system. We fabricate as many items as possible within the controlled environment of our workshop. The remainder of the components are roll formed on site and custom fitted to each individual roof dimension. In this way we are able to provide a "tailor fit" for each and every roof configuration. We will be happy to discuss any and all of the various options available to our potential customers. We realize that each roof project is specific to it's owner and we will try to guide you in the right direction for your specific needs. We are very proud of the fact that our steel product is "Energy Star Rated", and as such is eligible for any tax credit incentives offered at the Federal and State levels. All of our steel can be 100% recycled. Black Ox Roofing Inc. is fully insured. We carry full liability and workers compensation coverage. We will be happy to verify this for you. A job well done and customer satisfaction remain as our primary goals.

"Black Ox does a superb, professional job. Tom and his crew have been responsive (coming out in terrible weather last winter), neat and explained clearly their plan of action."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

Most wooden carports take 3-7 days to construct, depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions.

The national average cost of a building permit is about $1,600, but this number includes extensive renovations. Homeowners typically spend between $150 and $2,000 in general on one or multiple permits for their project. Conversely, permits for simple projects, such as minor electrical renovations, could cost as little as $10.

A board foot is a volumetric unit and is primarily used for pricing and planning larger projects where volume is a factor. Pricing lumber by the board foot aids in understanding exactly how much wood you’re purchasing, as volume is a more accurate unit of measurement compared to square feet.

Cedar and cypress are great wood choices for a window planter box because they’re readily available and won’t break the bank. However, there are plenty of wood types appropriate for a window flower box. Try using redwood for its natural resistance to rot, though it is on the expensive side.
