About Us

Dedicated To Providing
Quality Services

I'm a semi-retired craftsman with over 20 years of experience in the building trades, offering dependable, high-quality handyman services for homeowners who don't need a traditional contractor for smaller projects.

I specialize in home repairs, honey-do lists, and routine maintenance — completed efficiently, correctly, and at a substantial savings compared to contractor rates. All work is performed in compliance with California CSLB guidelines, limited to projects not requiring permits and not exceeding $1,000 in labor and materials per job, as allowed by California law.

If your project is larger — such as a bathroom remodel, kitchen remodel, or home addition — I have an extensive network of trusted, licensed contractors that I've worked with for decades and can confidently refer you to the appropriate professional.

Emergency or after-hours services are billed at double the hourly rate. I typically stop for lunch between 12:00 and 12:30 PM and work until 4:30 PM. If a project requires additional time, I can return the following day to complete the work.

For certain projects, I'm also open to negotiating a flat (set) rate if that makes you more comfortable.

Disclaimer: Handyman services comply with California CSLB regulations and are limited to jobs under $1,000 total that do not require permits. Larger or permitted projects will be referred to licensed contractors.
