LTWATCH

43 Years experience working on homes on Cape Cod. From small cottages to multi-million dollar trophy homes. I have worked on every aspect of both, and enjoy the rewards of working on my own. I do all the work that is within my scope of expertise. The guy you meet is the guy who will be doing the work. I am not a "salesman", I am a carpenter/builder, and I only take work I am comfortable I can handle. No B/S from me. And I only charge time, no mark-up on materials (except 3% for PayPal). I think materials are way too expensive, so I won't add to that burden :) My time to pick them up is billable though. I have now expanded into the Home Watch business. How much is it worth to have peace of mind about your unattended property. Neighbors are nice, but I know what to look for. I start at $99 per month :) I am duly vetted and\ licensed by the Massachusetts State Police. I am also bonded for this work. The MSP did a very complete background check on me, and does it yearly! I also carry insurance 2 steps above most guys in this field. My workman's comp is setup to include me, which means I pay about 10%-11% of my wages to be covered (and they audit me every year, which is standard operating procedure in comp) , but I would not work without it! I also carry a very good Liability company NGM AAA+. This all adds up, but it means you are getting a fully legitimate person to do your work. Doing the work, and the sense of accomplisment when a job is done correctly! I will not do a project unless I have a vision of the end product in my mind, and a path to get there. With that in mind, I also want to be sure my customer is comfortable with what is expected. I don't like surprises, and try to avoid them in my work. I have been around this business for a very long time, so I try to avoid unexpected issues :)
