I would hire Mike again in a heartbeat. He responded promptly, offered a quote, and arrived on time! The work was to expand an archway beteeen rooms which immediately became more complex once we saw behind the wall. He evaluated, offered an alternative within minutes and completed the job on same day. Required many different skills. Great job!

Mike was fantastic! He fixed several problems that other installers had created, and he didn't charge extra for it. He was very patient and spent lots of time getting every detail correct. Best experience ever!

We had a plumbing and drywall situation. Mike showed up right on time and did a fantastic job taking care of it and in the time he estimated. I appreciated his professionalism and friendliness and will definitely reach out to him to work on other home projects.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I always price things fairly and complete. I am always happy to put things in writing, and have phone calls to explain things in detail or the reasoning behind them.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
first, I try to wrap my head around the scope of the project and then I determine if the timeframe that I can complete it in aligns with my client and finally, I provide a detailed pricing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have my bachelors in fine art photography and my drone pilots license. I also have a fishing license but no of these licenses have anything to do with handyman work, lol.
In all seriousness, from age 22 to 30, I worked full-time for a medium-size commercial construction company in the field and then later in the office as a project estimator. However, experience in doing specific tasks is much more valuable than anything else. I also have a large network of other professionals that I call on to bounce ideas off… And of course we all have the Internet :-)
