Recently updated list of services below.
Hello everyone. Thank you for visiting my website. I love what I do, and I hope you do too!
Notes about my services:
I have typically stopped fence post replacement or furniture moving, etc. Room sized flooring jobs and repairs are becoming too physical for me now that I'm older.
Service Area:
I have posted a map on Yelp and on this website to indicate my approximate service area to help you decide whether to call me. If you need a very small job, and you are at the very edge of the map....It may not make good business sense to take that job, don't be offended.
Comprehensive list of Services: (if you don't see it, ask)
- Ceiling fan replacement--all makes and models; with or without remotes. Ceiling height can be a factor. Please let me know the ceiling height in advance so I can come prepared or let you know if I can't do it due to height-of-ceiling.
