I wasn’t sure whether I needed a specialist like a plumber or roofer or something who handled drywall, since we had a leak somewhere in our bathroom that affected the walls, paint and windows. I decided to start with a handyman, and Franklin was the best choice. He explained what was going on with the outside window seals, how rain entered the walls and wasted no time setting up time to work on the repairs. The work was done quickly, and it looks like nothing ever happened. He gave us an honest deal. I would not hesitate to hire him again (in fact, we have a few other things around the house that need attention and might need to give him a ring.)

He did a great job with very reasonable prices. Originally, I planned to do tile work for the backyard, but I hired him again for the garage wall-installation and floor. He is very nice and complete the job with details. Highly recommend him.

Details: Outside patio • Floor • 401 - 500 sq ft • Porcelain • No, but I will buy the tiles myself
