About
Hello, I'm Robert, owner of SaltWorks Handyman Services.
With 16 years of experience and a background in carpentry, I bring craftsmanship and integrity to every home project—from knocking out your to-do list to trim work and custom wood accent walls. Inspired by my faith and family, I named SaltWorks after the Christian idea of being “salt of the earth”—enhancing and preserving the good in our community.
A quick note: Thumbtack charges me a fee (up to $40 or more) every time someone contacts me through this platform—even if the job doesn’t move forward. If you're seriously considering working together, I’d be grateful if you first check out my profile, and if it feels like a good fit, please *********************************************************
This helps me avoid Thumbtack’s high fees, supports my local small business, and helps me keep my pricing fair for everyone.
Thank you for considering SaltWorks—I’d be honored to help bring your home projects to life

SaltWorks Handyman Services was such a pleasure to work with. Robert was quick to respond and got my project done quickly and professionally. I had a very difficult and precarious install, but Robert took care of it perfectly. I needed a 6ft x 6ft 120lbs panel installed over a window about 18 feet off the ground. The result is stunning. I would 100% refer others, and I plan on using them on future projects. I couldn't be happier!
Robert was able to properly deassemble a shed that was poorly put together and reassemble in a timely manner. On top of that the work was very high qaulity.

Robert came in and was very professional. He put my queen size bedframe together and was quick. No trying to ride the clock to get more money. I will be calling him for other jobs and would recommend him for any job you need because if he can do it I'm sure he will be efficient and quick for you like he was for ke. Again thank you Robert.

Great work, I highly recommend. I had a difficult crate to get apart so that my new table could be assembled. Robert was friendly and knowledgeable not just about my furniture, but other issues I was having at my place.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge a flat trip rate of $125, which covers my travel time to your location as well as any necessary trips I may need to make to the hardware store to get supplies. This trip rate also includes the first hour of service on-site.
After the first hour, my hourly rate ranges from $60 to $100 depending on the complexity and difficulty of the project. This way, you only pay for the time and effort needed to get the job done right. I’m happy to discuss pricing details upfront to make sure everything fits your budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I like to hear what you’re hoping to get done — whether it's a simple fix or a full project. I’ll either visit in person or go over photos and measurements with you. Once we agree on the scope, I give you a clear estimate and timeline. I keep communication open throughout the job and make sure you're happy with the results.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Most of what I’ve learned has come from real-life experience — years of hands-on work, problem-solving, and helping others. I’ve worked alongside skilled tradesmen, learned by doing, and continue to grow with every project. What I bring is more than just skill — I bring care, patience, and a desire to serve with excellence.
