First, I will not rip you off, I will finish work and I will show up when I say I'm going to be there. I have lived around this area for over 40 years. Kinda live my life that way. I was a military family kid. Now try to help me, if you are going through and clicking on 3,4,5 people for a job just to talk to everyone about a 250 or 500 bid, don't replay to my bid unless you know you want me to do it. Every time someone replies to a bid and even if they just say "Hello" it normally cost me 10 to 15 dollars. Yes everyone figures this into the bids. Some bids cost 50 or more dollars so look at the people first. I will also tell you I can not do something or if I really don't want to. Example: I can not add a room to your home, I don't run with helpers anymore and I really do not like tile work. Just about have to hold a gun to my head to get me to do it. I would say around 25% of my work comes people that got ripped off, work that was not finished, work done wrong or just never started. (Took Deposit and never came back) DONT GIVE MONEY TO SHADY PEOPLE. If you need a lot of materials go buy it and have it delivered. That way if people do not show up you still have your materials. If you need more help with all this tell me. With more and more people trying to get into handyman work or people calling themselves contractors. (Anyone can say they are a contractor, you can say you are a contractor) The amount of people that don't know what they are doing is on the rise and I'm seeing a lot of people getting ripped off. Handyman work is not just something you can read in a book or youtube or think I do my own stuff around my house so I am now a handyman. I grew up from the age of 10 with my dad owning a Roof Truss company and building homes. I have been around building all my life. This is how I know what kind of work I like or not. I enjoy working in the trades as they are called. If you are still reading I will probably never be low bid. If someone has a bid that seems like he or she are going to do you some kind of deal they are cutting corners somewhere or might be looking to take your money. Something like "I will need 1/2 up-front" of a 500 dollar job. Watch out. I will also say that I do not finance Home Depot for people. I will have x amount of supplies but I will not go and buy a 200 dollar door for you and come and put it in. That is an easy way for me to lose 200 dollars. Or with people out of town with rentals they can drag their feet on paying for weeks or months. Yes, people rip off both ways here. I generally do not do any large jobs like adding rooms, roofs, or remodels. I keep it simple and help people with small projects. Here are a few things you might need in addition to what you are looking for right now. * Changing out interior or exterior doors * Painting * Shelving for Closets and Garages *Trim * Holes in walls * Texturing * Makereadies for rental and home sells. * Punch list for homeowners or honey-do list. * Don't forget Zombie proofing homes. * I am also willing to be your helper. I love not being in charge. * Always looking for an interesting project. You can see in photos I just made some display shelves for a Vape shop. I have a small wood shop. *I have many clients that work with me as a helper to save them money and people love doing things with their hands. It's a feeling of accomplishment. * Do you have something you want to have built. Catio, Dog run, birdhouse, Turtle home, little library, raised garden, cool shelving, birdhouse, Taj Mahal or Greek Gladiator Arena. and CHICKEN COOPS. * Have you started something and got in too deep and need someone to clean it up. * Have you stepped through your ceiling or has someone else I can help. Not uncommon. * Trapdoors for door to door salespeople. Alligators and Tigers not included.
