FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Most of our projects are based on a time and material model. We provide you a written estimate that details the number of hours and the material costs. This is our not-to-exceed estimate. You will only pay for the actual amount of time invested with your project. So if we estimate 3 hours and it only takes us 2.5 hours, you pay for 2.5 hours. There are some exceptions, but this is the basic model.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) through AARP and the National Association of Home Builders. My company is a licensed contractor (Lic# 6344), and Lead Renovation company with the Kansas Department of Health & Environment. All craftsmen are employees, not sub-contractors. Each has passed background and drug screening.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
In 2005 I was laid off from director of operations at a call center in Wichita. Not sure I wanted to leave Wichita to stay in the industry, I decided to pursue my own business. Began with a handyman franchise for 10 years, then started my own business, The Best Home Guys, in 2015.
