I tried to DIY some wood tiles on my balcony and ended up staining the concrete with wood stain…total disaster. Tom came to the rescue. He showed up fully prepared, pressure washed the entire area to clear out all the dirt and debris, and got everything painted the same day. His work was so impressive that I didn’t even think twice about calling him back to handle the wood polishing—some things are better left to the pros.
Tom truly is LA’s best kept secret. Not only is his work top-notch, but he’s also one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet on this platform. Can’t recommend him enough.

Very kind, professional, and did a wonderful job building and installing a closet system in my son’s room. He also painted the closet walls before installing once I realized they weren’t in great shape. I appreciated his flexibility.

Tom came to my rental property to fix a number of maintenance requests from my tenant ranging from fixing a leaking shower tub to fixing a mechanical garage door.
Tom is responsive, professional and gets the job done.
I would recommend Tom to anyone who has any home repair needs.

Thomas was very prompt and showed high quality of workmanship. He installed new door knobs on all our bedroom and bathroom doors (these were old doors) and the process was quite involved. He patched up the openings where the old knobs went and also painted them and made sure that overall, the installation looked professional. I would highly recommend him.
