How We Have
Helped

Our Recent Projects & Home Transformations!

General HandymanFix Fencing

Our Task
Our client had a bunch of scrap plywood stacked up in hopes it would keep deer and other critters out of their yard and realized they needed something more secure for the job.
Our Process
There was already some fencing along the back property line that even though it wasn't in the best of shape, we were able to tie into it to help seal off the area.
We cleared away and hauled off the scrap plywood, used our handy dandy post hole diggers to dig a hole for a 4x4 post and secured the post with concrete.
Once our frame was there, we connected it with 1x3s to match the existing fencing, installed cedar dog ear pickets.
The Result
The result was a happy customer and a pretty good-looking fence. I wish we were able to reset the other post that we tied our new section into as it was on a bit of a lean, but that wasn't in the budget or plans.

General HandymanShed Assembly

Our Task
Our client had a shed that they wanted to replace so we tore down the old done and assembled a new one for them.
Our Process
With a multitool and some determination, I was able to tear down the old shed in a couple of hours and haul it away. After it was gone, we came back a few days later to assemble the shed kit they bought. Once the shed was assembled, we used masonry screws to drill into the concrete and anchor it to the cement pad so it wouldn't fly away in a wind storm.
The Result
Everything went smoothly and the customer was happy to have a new shed and no longer worry it was going to blow away.

RemodelingWallpaper Removal

Our Task
Before we could paint this room for a client, we had to get rid of the wallpaper and get the walls cleaned up.
Our Process
We used the Wagner Wallpaper Steamer to get the glue behind the paper loose and scraped it all off. Luckily a lot of this paper was ready to come off and came off the wall in large sheets instead of small pieces.
The Result
After a few hours of steaming and scrubbing, this room was prepped and ready for paint.

PaintingBathroom Makeover

Our Task
Our client had a small area of paint bubble up after some water damage and when we showed them the price to repair the area and match the existing paint, a whole room repaint made more sense.
Our Process
We removed the mirror and fixtures, fixed the damaged area, did a light clean and sand on he walls, and began to paint. They wanted to do the dredging style where the walls and ceilings are the same color so we applied 2 coats to the walls and it took 3 to get the ceiling looking good.
For this project we used the Sherwin Williams Cashmere paint in a Plum Dandy semi gloss.
The Result
The customer was happy with the result and I think it turned out well too. The darker color did call for brighter light bulbs and I recommended they switch the wall accessories from stainless steel to gold to make the color pop a bit more.

Outdoor MaintenanceLeaf Clean Up

We can handle whatever Mother Nature throws at you.
Our Task
This is a recurring maintenance property of ours where we stop by each week and take care of whatever needs done. This week it was getting the leaves off the lawn.
Our Process
We normally clear leaves with a mix of mulching and blowing. For this property, we send all of the leaves into the woods surrounding the property to help feed the trees.
The Result
We were able to turn the lawn from brown to green in an hour and a half.

Outdoor MaintenanceSidewalk Edging

Don't let grass take over your pavement.
Our Task
We were called out to mow the yard and help bring back the edging.
Our Process
To get the lawn back to a manageable height, we went over it with the mower in 3 directions to ensure all blades were cut evenly. From there we took multiple passes with our Line Trimmer and Edger to cut the overgrowth away, making a defined line between lawn and concrete.
The Result
We uncovered over 10 inches of hidden sidewalk and instantly improved the curb appeal.

LandscapingHome Make Over

If you are selling your home or just need to declutter, we can help.
Our Task
Our client wanted to make maintenance easier and make their entertainment area look better.
Our Process
We killed ooff the grass, added 6 yards of mulch, installed a rubber edging to secure the mulch, and added a few plants along the fence.
The Result
The area looks way better, no longer need to take a mower through the thin areas around the patio, and the client was thrilled with the results.

Junk RemovalBasement Clean Out

If you are selling your home or just need to declutter, we can help.
Our Task
We had to remove all of the belongings from a home that was recently sold.
Before our arrival the client set a few things aside they wanted to keep and we took the rest out of the basement, loaded it onto our trailers, and hauled it to the dump. We finished the service by sweeping the floors that were covered in dust.
The Result
Everything that needed to get removed was hauled away successfully and the client was able to meet their obligations to the buyer.
