Handy “Mann”

For 20yrs I owned my own business building and installing sunrooms, screen rooms, and canvas awnings. Both commercial and residential. For the past 5yrs I’ve been in bath design. I’m skilled in lots of things. If there’s something I can’t do; I’ll let you know. I won’t tell you that I can do something just to get the job. I’m of the mindset that if you’re fair, honest and show up on time; you’ll have more work than you can handle. I’ll never cut corners. Can you get it done cheaper? Maybe. Will it be right? Who knows? Some of my competitors may be cheaper, but I’ll take the time to make sure that it’s done right and you’re happy. Why? Because word of mouth it the best advertisement. And bad news travels twice as fast as good news. NOTE: Due to the overwhelming responses I need to let it be known that I do not have the capability to change out light fixtures such as chandeliers in vaulted ceilings or two story foyers. Neither can I do anything on the outside of the home that is above the first floor. That type of work requires tall ladders and or scaffolding and more man power. I’m just one person. I borrowed this from a fellow craftsman: When you pay for a job, especially handcrafted, you pay not only for the material used, but also: - Knowledge - Experience - Study - Tools - Services - Time to go - Punctuality - Accountability - Professionalism - Accuracy - Guaranteed - Patents - Sacrifices - Safety and security - Payment of tax obligations No one can denigrate other people's work by judging prices. Only by knowing all the elements necessary for the production of a certain work can you estimate the actual cost. I am sharing it to support craftsmen and entrepreneurs. Thank you. Jeff
