Josef was great. He took a garage door that a previous contractor did wrong. Put up the new door and added a lock like it wasn't nothing. Did such a great job that my 94 year old mom jumped for joy. Thank you Josef for a job well done👍

Josef was great! Initially, searching for a handyman by word of mouth left me waiting two weeks. I tried this platform and received a quick response from Josef. He completed all my tasks in a timely manner, as well as extra tasks I brought to his attention. I already have plans to keep him around in the future. I highly suggest giving him an opportunity.
Details: 2 - 5 hours (A few different projects) • Repairs • Maintenance • Installation • Kitchen • Bathroom • Bedroom • Doors • Appliances • Molding or baseboards • Home

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a minimum service fee of $150 for any
project.
Outside of the $150 my price varies depending on job size, time, and details. The first hour is $150 and every hour following is $75.
I typically price by the job mainly not by hourly because I am fast and efficient! But if you like hourly better, that is my rate.
For bigger projects I require 50% of the project cost up front and then when finished the other 50% will be paid. If you decide to cancel or go another way in the middle of the project you do not get your 50% deposit back that is for my time spent, any funds spent on your project, and now I have open days with no bookings.
If you book me and cancel before the project has started you will get your 50% back in full.
Evening appointments from 5:00pm-8:00pm have a $50 convenience fee added for non business hour appointments.
Weekend appointments have a $50 dollar convenience fee as well for non business hours.
I offer a refund and/or exchange of 50% total project cost within the first 48hrs of your purchase for any dissatisfaction or issues with final product. If 2 days have passed since your purchase, you will not be offered a refund and/or exchange of any kind.
By hiring me you accept and agree to the business terms. Thank you!
Excited to give you the best quality work!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First off get to know the customers preferences on what they like and or are looking for as far as quality and the type of service they would like to have done. Second I like to look at the space and get some measurements so I know exactly what to plan for as far as material and just over execution goes (each space has different variations to what’s accomplishable). Third I figure out a time and day that works best for the customers schedule. Last I’ll get in and get the project started/ finished to the standards they are looking for and make sure it’s all nice, clean, and ready to go for the use they are looking for.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve completed all of the Utah home builders classes that they provide, and I’ve spent 7 years helping build and finish custom million dollar homes
