Benefits of Hiring a Handyman
You’ve got an ever increasing to-do list of home improvements like changing out a bathroom faucet, replacing missing shingles on the roof and painting a kitchen wall. You could hire a plumber, roofer and painter who all would have conflicting schedules of availability and their own service charges, or you could hire a handyman to complete all three projects in one day for a single hourly rate.
A homeowner can save money on home improvement projects by hiring a handyman because it eliminates the need for multiple service providers and contractors. A homeowner only pays for one worker who can complete a wide range of projects. A service charge from a plumber or roofer to come to your home could equal or even surpass the price to hire a handyman for a few hours. Hiring a handyman also prevents waste and overcharging, as the handyman will only charge you for hours worked. A contractor or specialist is more likely to price a job based on the estimated amount of time it will take to complete it and add a additional percentage. Handymen are able to keep their rates low because they don't have to pay additional workers and have lower overhead costs than contractors or large companies.Many homeowners turn to handymen when they have a job but don't know who to call. Handymen have been known to do all types of work from setting up playground equipment and gas grills to hanging holiday lights and decorations.
Home Improvement
While "home improvement" often refers to building projects that alter the structure of an existing home, it can also include improvements to lawns, gardens, and outdoor structures, such as gazebos and garages. It also encompasses maintenance, repair and general servicing tasks. Home improvement projects generally have one or more of the following goals:
Comfort
- Upgrading heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (HVAC).
- Increasing the capacity of plumbing and electrical systems.
- Waterproofing basements.
- Soundproofing rooms, especially bedrooms and baths.
Maintenance and repair
- Roof tear-off and replacement.
- Concrete and masonry repairs to the foundation and chimney.
- Repairing plumbing and electrical systems.
Additional space
- Turning marginal areas into livable spaces such as turning basements into rec-rooms, home theater, or home offices – or attics into spare bedrooms.
- Extending one's house with rooms added to the side of one's home or, sometimes, extra levels to the original roof.
Saving energy
- Energy-efficient thermal insulation, replacement windows, and lighting.

Consider functionality, ergonomics, flow, aesthetics, and safety with the design.

Lawn Care & Snow Removal
(Strathmore)
Mowing: Not every lawn is the same. Not every lawn needs the same level of service. Whether your lawn needs service every two weeks, every ten days, or even every week. Leafs are bagged and hauled away.
Lawn Aeration: Often overlooked in lawn restorations. Aeration improves the exchange of air between the soil and atmosphere, improving soil water and fertilizer uptake, reduces puddles and improves water run-off which is incredibly important.
Pruning and Trimming: Most people know pruning is important, it helps promote healthy growth in trees, bushes, and hedges. Pruning and Trimming is also important for keeping a pesky branch from poking you in the eye!
Snow Removal: Sidewalks and Driveways: Kept clear from ice and snow.
Reasonable Hourly Rates, Flat Rates, Monthly or Season Contracts.
