Hired Skyler to remove some existing molding and wood framing and to cut some metal sheeting that are part of my washing machine drip pan. He did everything carefully and did not damage any removed pieces, to make sure they can later be restored. He was responsive, very punctual, tidy, did quality work, and easy to communicate with. Would recommend to others.

Skyler has been working on a punch list for me in my new home. From fixing doors and windows to converting spaces into cabinetry, dealing with minor plumbing issues - he is good at communicating what he thinks falls within his skillset and what may not be best suited to him. He’s thorough in his work and cleans up at the end of each job. He’s very easy to work with, honest, and efficient.

Skyler was really great! Very proactive without being pushy, and very resourceful. He operated in a full service way (ie interacting with vendors to get niche parts before installing them) but at very affordable rates. His work was also top notch - the pieces he crafted and installed work seamlessly with the original flooring and cabinets into which he installed them.

We’re hired Skyler for multiple projects and have been happy with his workmanship. We have an old house and Skyler has helped me from cleaning our gutters to mounting lights and hangers to fixing blind corner cabinets and rickety drawers to be functional again. Highly recommend

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I typically will price jobs based on time and material, however for certain jobs I offer flat rates. There is a 2 hour minimum to cover drive time and gas. I do have a 50% cancellation fee for any cancellations within 24 hours. This is to cover the time block that was reserved and potential work that was turned away.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to talk with the customer about their goals and expectations, and provide my professional opinion and offer any advice as needed. This ensures that we can be on the same page and manage our expectations throughout the job, start to finish.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been in the trades for 10+ years. I have worked in shops, factories, and for the last two years exclusively on job sites.
