Introduction
I have 10+ years of experience with repairs/ installations and have been committed to doing this full-time for 3 years. My philosophy is "do it once and do it right." I focus on delivering quality repairs and installations that last. An engineer turned dance instructor, turned kitchen designer; a transplant from the Midwest. I have skills in home repairs/fixes (cabinets, drawers, doors), wall patching, plumbing, electrical, light renovations (bathrooms, closets, garage, decking), painting, installation of wall fixtures and plumbing, furniture assembly, and appliance installation/repair. More skills as needed. I rarely turn away a job. I have been using TaskRabbit, but I am now switching to this platform. I am a curator of vinyl, vintage furniture, and anything historic in nature. During 2020-2022 I volunteered as a furniture "builder", repairing old vintage furniture as part of a program to rehabilitate adults with traumatic brain injuries

Hired Watson for a diverse job getting an apartment ready to rent. A mix of aggravating small tasks of different nature. A faucet here a plug there some patching of wallboard trimming of doors. And so on. Watson was in good humor throughout. He worked steadily to conclusion and his prices were more than fair so much so that I tossed in a tip. We own numerous apartments in several communities over many years. Repair people come snd go. Most are little better than crooks with a saw and a screwdriver. Watson is the real deal. A man of honor in a savage world.

Brent is the best handyman I’ve worked with. He’s very dependable, flexible, and professional. I’ve had him handle a myriad of tasks and the quality of his repairs is always top notch. He’s the only person I would trust to make repairs.

I used Brent’s services for a few projects like furniture, dish washer set up, deck and front yard services. His work has been exceptional in all of these projects. I highly recommend Brent.
