About
Hello! Thank you for viewing Handyma'am Construction's profile page. We are a fully insured, registered home improvement contracting company who are very proud of our rich construction history. Handyma'am Construction has a long and happy tradition of taking care of people's homes and businesses. We are very proud of our record and our many accomplishments. A little about the owner: Some of you may recognize the photo as "Pierre" from the Milford Home Depot Hardware Department, where I worked when I first arrived in Cincinnati. I derived tremendous satisfaction from my work over at the Milford Home Depot, (the best Home Depot) where you may recall how sincerely happy I always was to help my customers and how I frequently went above and beyond customer expectations to see that they got exactly what they needed (including tips and advice) for their projects. Heck, I'm sure I completely engineered a few high school student's science projects, too! My background is in high end interior renovations and remodels in particular in New York City's famous Park Slope and Carroll Gardens neighborhoods. I first apprenticed with the Carpenters Union in 1992. After a few years I left the union to work exclusively with a master carpenter and builder. It was under his tutelage that my carpentry skills really took off. I also had the opportunity to become proficient in other trades as well, from carpentry to masonry, plumbing, electrical, iron work, etc. We worked together for nearly 20 years until, when he retired, I started my own business. When I first moved to the Cincinnati area, the first thing I did was secure that little job over at the Home Depot in Milford where I was regarded as something of a store expert on all manner of construction related stuff. I met many wonderful friends and I loved the job but, alas it was finally time for me to move on and get back to my main work in the construction trades. Okay, enough about Pierre for now.. Handyma'am Construction: Pierre has, along with some highly skilled family members, relaunched Handyma'am Construction here in the Cincinnati area. Now everyone here can avail themselves of knowledgeable, high quality construction services they truly need to bring their projects to fruition. We provide quality and detailed customer interface coupled with a solid knowledge of techniques and materials needed to get the job done. We have over 25+ years experience working in the industry. We are highly skilled tradespeople who enjoy bringing unparalleled professionalism to customers, households and work environments. With a friendly, open and honest approach; we cater to all demographics including women in need of safe, reliable and affordable *Handyma'am services. *Ask us about our exclusive Handyma'am service. We offer a diverse team of reliable, capable and motivated technicians who take pride in our work and revel in the satisfaction of a job well done. We are completely comfortable working solo and at the same time enjoy collaborative team projects. Our communicative approach is respectful and candid. We work hard to bring creative and sound solutions to unexpected problems. We are culturally, religiously, socio-economically and racially diverse and pride ourselves on the purposeful power inherent in diversity. We at Handyma'am Construction Services believe carpentry is an art and an aesthetic that has the potential to both display beautiful craftsmanship and at the same time; serve a purposeful and practical function. Carpentry and construction are professions that can concretize our connections as humans to the world around us. Troubleshooting, restoring what once was, creating what isn't yet, fixing and fabricating, envisioning and executing... These things bring a great sense of connectedness. Having our hands engaging solidly in the pulse of life is very rewarding; a passionate creative alchemy of sorts. The materials, the manifestations and the many makings also present opportunities to meet people and practice purposefully, happily and gainfully whenever we get the chance to work together.

Pierre did a an extremely professional and thorough job of completely remodeling our cottage bathroom. This involved replacing everything down to the wall studs - installing the insulation, new dry wall, wiring, tiling walls and floor, putting in new bath tub, building a cabinet and sink stand from scratch, redoing a closet, putting in a new door, connecting the plumbing and installing all fittings, mirror, towel racks ... the works. Pierre did all of the purchasing of materials, she worked closely with us on finding the tiles and colors we liked and worked on the place while we were overseas. The new bathroom looks gorgeous and gives some class to the cottage. My wife and I found Pierre to be an all round builder, carpenter, re-modeler with a thorough knowledge of codes and proper procedures. Plus she has good taste. Pierre is totally trustworthy and easy to work with, very relaxed working with a range of people across different culture and we would strongly recommend her - you won't regret it.

I met with Pierre from Handy Ma'am, the moment she (YES SHE) walked through my door she radiates good vibes and you can tell she is genuinely a good person. She listened tentatively as I pointed out the repairs I need to have done and gave positive feedback; when she detected I was confused by her description of what needed to be done she explained it to me in layman's terms. Their slogan is that they "Pride themselves in being a diverse business" and "Anything HE can do, WE can do...Also" and with that being said I gave her my list... fix ceilings, replace my light fixtures, replace cabinets, restore my stairs ( I own a Brownstone) Pierre took pride in saying "I do the carpentry herself", replace the faucet in my kitchen, paint my bathroom, redo my vestibule and the list goes on. Just think, I feel this way and they haven't started working yet, so stay tuned for part 2.

The HandyMa'am Can recently refinished a small vanity for our bathroom and did a lovely job. They took painstaking care to make sure the piece was transported safely and turned out with a high-quality finish. It was a pleasure to work with them!
