About
I grew up in the carpentry and cabinet business and have spent over 25 years working with wood, furniture, and home repairs. Today, I focus on complete home maintenance and handyman services, including furniture assembly, TV mounting, closet and shelving installation, and appliance installation. As a one-person business, I’m on every job myself, and I treat your home with the same care and respect as my own. I’m flexible with scheduling because I understand how valuable your time is. My goal is simple: to leave you with quality work, a smooth experience, and a genuine sense of satisfaction. If that’s what you’re looking for, I’d be happy to help with your next project.

Ron is a true professional! He responded quickly and was able to come out the very same day to mount my TV. He did an excellent job, was efficient, and made the whole process seamless. I highly recommend him and will absolutely be reaching out again for future projects!

I can't wait to hire him again. I bought a hulking 65" TV that Amazon was going to charge me to unpack, put on its stand, and take away the old TV. Nope! Amazon delivers, unpacks, and, if it's on a stand, puts it on the table. Amazon refunded the delivery fee and left me with a crated TV and an old one on a stand. I am a seriously old person. I needed help. Ron rescued me- he had dismantled the old TV, assembled the new TV, put it on the old TV mount, which was better quality than the one that came with it, tested it, and whisked away boxes, cables, and that old TV. All that and a pleasant discussion about what he thought was the best approach and how he would approach the project. All that in under an hour. I'm looking forward to welcoming his obvious skill, professionalism, and knowledge back to put together furniture I've ordered.

Ron was fantastic to work with! He was able to come out quickly and efficiently unmount and remount several TVs in my office, and did a great job patching the holes left behind. He was punctual, professional, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process. Everything was done neatly and with care. I’d definitely hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, quality work.
