About

I have been a licensed general contractor in the state of Arizona for 36 years. I have built homes, and done numerous large remodels. I am no longer interested in large projects, and now no job is too small. Quality is my main objective, and I do not cut corners. After all, I like a good night's sleep!

Excellent work, friendly, easy to talk to, punctual, the best handyman around! Fixed my door and came out better than expected. His estimate was exactly as described, and did not overcharge for materials. Will use again!

Dick has done a couple of jobs for me including the redux of my Kitchen Counters/Sink/Disposal install and my Master Bath Shower/Vanities/Sinks install, etc. The workmanship is very well done and professional. He was very helpful, as he accompanied me to wholesale warehouses and helped me pick out what I wanted. He is very reliable and trustworthy as well.
