I’m so happy my project is finally done. It was hard finding a reliable pro to do my backsplash. Thankfully Maurice was soo fast responding to my request, very thorough in explaining what the project takes to do, quick to complete the project day of, etc. I’m very glad I hired him and have no cons overall!

Maurice helped me finish out a closet with drywall, install an exhaust fan and do some wiring work. He was easy to communicate with, did great work and offered advice on a few things I could do myself to finish the job and save a little money. I would be glad to have Maurice come back and help on future projects.
Details: Basement • Improve storage • Built-in shelving • Home • No existing plans, but have a good idea of what I want

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My hourly rate is $70 per hour. I do charge a 2 hour minimum for my time. It's best to communicate about your project to gain a full understanding of the desired outcome. I can therefore provide a full estimate with time and charge.
I prefer to have my customers to purchase material for the jobs as this saves them a mark up fee.
I don’t charge a travel fee in my local area. However if you are outside of my travel area an hour plus away, feel free to reach out to me and we could negotiate a travel fee.
If it is necessary to cancel your scheduled appointment, I require that you call one working day in advance. Otherwise you agree to pay a $260.00 cancellation fee per day.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once you have an idea for a project it's easiest if you can send me pictures of the area needing work. From there I can normally give you an estimated cost and we can work out the details.
For medium to larger size jobs I like to stop by for an on-site visit where I will walk you through the process of what we can do to meet your requirements, how to make your project a success, we can then schedule a time to make it a reality.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
-I have extensive training and worked as a framer on many homes all over the Wasatch front.
-I loved my time spent as a Finish custom / carpenter where I learned my attention to detail and true quality of workmanship.
-I have experience in the laboring work of drywall, hanging, taping, and muddling
-I have spent a lot of time remodeling restaurants where I had to work with a large scope of projects. I was able to figure out solutions to the impossible.
-I have a vast knowledge in plumbing both new construction, and repair.
-I have substantial training in the electrical field for both commercial and residential.
-I enjoined my time as a professional welder in a fabrication / repair shop where.
