I do general home repair and upkeep - balancing quality, time, and price; whether that's a beautiful durable paint job or a quick fix to keep rain out of the garage tonight.

Mostly I do:
-basic carpentry
-painting
-pressure washing (small to medium)
-Unit Turnover
-picture hanging
-TV hanging
-drywall patches
-door lock replacement
-door repair
-shelves
-closet organizers
-garage space saving
-deck repair
-deck treatment
-window cleaning
-window restoration, glazing
-roof cleaning
-roof patches
-moss removal
-lawn mowing (I do Not own a mower)
-beauty bark
-tree and shub install
***I do not currently have a bond or insurance so if your job requires that you will need someone else***
*I typically charge $75 for the first hour (travel, material pickup, app fees, logistics) and $40/hr after that.

Jacob responded quickly to my request and after an assessment, he rented a deck sander and had it sanded and painted in 2 hours. He got our project to the finish line by the next day. His calm, professional demeanor won our confidence. We're so glad to have found this gem. Thank you Jacob!

Jacob installed some cat shelves for me and I really appreciated how he took time to make sure the shelves were level and secure so they’d be safe for my cat. He also offered some tips on how to hang other things, which I’ll definitely put to use in the future. Overall, he was very friendly and did a good job!

Jacob is 10/10! He helped me install my Class 3, 2” trailer hitch receiver on my 2023 RAV4 as well as the wiring harness kit. He also helped me clean my house. Great hire and 10/10 work. Would definitely hire Jacob again!

Jacob did a great job putting up a tricky patio sail at my home. His work is high quality, and he is a lovely person to interact with. Knowledgeable, kind, professional, and efficient.
