What I do

Electrical and plumbing

Light fixtures and switches, the leaking trap under the sink — the minor work that keeps getting put off.

Carpentry and tile

Doors that swing true, trim, shelving, tile set and grouted.

Appliance installation

Dishwasher, range, washer and dryer, hooked up and leveled.

A list like this

Front door sticks
Hall outlet dead
Cracked tile by the entry
Dishwasher not draining
Shelf for the garage
Starts at $200 — so save them up.

Hi, I’m John.

I was working for a company full time and helping friends and family on my days off. The calls kept coming — people who’d talked to someone I helped, or seen work I’d done — until there was more work than a weekend warrior could handle. Talking it over at home, I realized what I enjoy is working with people directly: meeting new customers, and solving each project the way that customer wants it solved.

I gave notice, and I’ve been on my own for ten years since. Most of my work still comes by word of mouth, and the customers I like best are the ones who call me back for the next thing.

We called John to replace a deck board, reseal the garage and seal a soffit. He did all three — then replaced a deck stair, fixed three doors that were sticking, and worked out a plan to install a calcite filter for us. John’s the best.

Honest about the price

The estimate you get before I start is the number I hold myself to. If a job turns out bigger, you hear it while there’s still a choice about it.

Easy to have in the house

The compliment I get most, after ten years of customers letting me into their homes.

Tidy when I leave

Drop cloths down, dust cleaned up, offcuts hauled out. You shouldn’t be able to tell where I worked.

Fair questions

What’s your hourly rate?
The minimum is $200 and it covers up to two hours. After that it’s $75 an hour.
Is my job too small?
That’s most of what I do. One item still runs the $200 minimum, so it’s worth saving up a few small jobs and having me take the whole list in one visit.
When can you come out?
By appointment, and I’m flexible on timing. Call and I’ll sort out a time with you.
How do I pay?
Cash, check, or Venmo — whichever’s easiest for you.
