Does it right
No flakes • no scammers
Fair margins • transparent fees
My senior carpenter has 47 years in the business and does almost everything — except high‑voltage electrical, advanced plumbing, and HVAC systems (ductwork is fine). We also know people in the industry who are properly licensed for those trades.

What We Do

Handyman (Flat‑Rate)

Standard household fixes with straightforward pricing. Competitive with Handy — cheaper because our margins are fair.

  • Toilet installs & repairs
  • Drain snaking (basic clogs)
  • Light fixture installs (basic)
  • Drywall patching
  • Doors & windows (non‑high‑rise)
  • Punch‑list / small repairs

Cleaning

Reliable crew that shows up and finishes the job.

  • Move‑in / move‑out
  • Deep cleans
  • Turnovers
  • Recurring service

How It’s Different

I already sorted out the flakes and scammers so you don’t have to gamble on who shows up. Unlike some platforms, I don’t take a huge cut — just fair, transparent fees.

  • Clear pricing
  • Clean work (no “landlord special”)
  • Real communication
