FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I give 5 percent discount for Seniors and Military. Depending on the work, I charge $65 per estimate. My markup, overhead, profit is 20%. In many cases, customers should always plan on having extra funds available for the unforeseen "stuff" that happens once we get into the work.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I can work from pictures for simple jobs but prefer to be on site to access the work if its more involved. Plus I need to evaluate the work environment for accessibility and safety.

I tokk all the trade classes in highschool. Went from a yard maintenance, to interior/exterior painting, the working for a new home contractor to do finish work and install doors and windows. I have had my own contracting businesses for a cummulative of over 20yrs. I also have a degree in Mechanical Engineering as a 2nd career.
