Tom arrived on time and did a great job! We had artwork to hang and a heavy mirror to anchor to the wall. He is an excellent resource and we would absolutely hire him again!
I highly recommend Tom Rhoads for professional art and picture installation! He did an amazing job installing my very large and heavy 91” × 66” framed piece.
Tom was extremely knowledgeable, professional, careful, and experienced. He knew exactly how to handle such a large and heavy frame and made sure it was securely installed and perfectly positioned. The finished result looks beautiful!
He was also very easy to communicate with and a genuine pleasure to work with. I’m extremely happy with the installation and would definitely recommend Tom to anyone who needs help hanging large, heavy, or valuable artwork.
Thank you, Tom, for doing such a wonderful job!

Tom is great! He knows what he’s doing and is very considerate of what’s important to the customer. He partially dismantled my complex Hoist home gym so it can be moved to our new house and re-assembled with minimal effort. He’s prepared and knowledgeable. I’d hire him again in a minute! Fred

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I usually charge a $75 hourly fee with a 2hr minimum. The minimum helps offset transportation and other expenses.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I answer a request and invite the customer to contact me to iron out any questions. Then we decide on a convenient time for both of us and I always confirm our appointment the day before. I also call the client when I'm heading their way.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
When you have a career that spans from apprentice to foreman to project manager it teaches a person so much. Also, being a homeowner and family man taught me about the things it takes to repair and maintain a home and these are the majority of my requests.
