My standard fee is $70 per hour with a minimum charge of two hours, plus the CrackerJack service fee.
ONLY SERIOUS INQUIRIES PLEASE: It's important to note that CrackerJack charges a service fee of $18 to $50 each time potential clients reach out to us, regardless of whether or not we're hired. Most CrackerJack users are not aware of this, but it can be costly for us Pros. Recently, I was charged $43 by CrackerJack after a potential client connected with me and then disappeared. So, if you're seeking bids from multiple Pros, please don't contact me. I'm only interested in hearing from customers who want to hire my services exclusively.
PAINTING: For any interior or exterior painting project, including walls, ceilings, and fences, there will be an on-site inspection fee of $150. If you hire me for the project, this fee will be credited to your total cost. As a general rule, a standard size 10' x 10' room would have a minimum cost of $800, but pricing will vary according to the project's size, condition of surfaces, trim/molding requirements, and necessary coats of paint.
BACKGROUND:
As a recently retired mechanical engineer, I have extensive experience with home renovation and repair projects, both for myself and others. My skills cover painting, light fixture installation, fence repair, and much more. My background in project management and purchasing has made me highly attuned to clear communication, scheduling, and detailed service definitions. I know how frustrating it can be when hired professionals don't follow through, and I'm committed to being different; I have a keen attention to detail and ensure that the end product looks impeccable and satisfies my client's needs.

Tony was exceptional! He greatly contributed to my project of finding a solution for a bowed cabinet bottom without the need to replace the whole cabinet box. He provided innovative ideas which proved successful. I am extremely content with the result and he was a delight to collaborate with. Although it's challenging to depict the extent of the bowing in the before photos, the after photo speaks for itself - flawlessly levelled! I will certainly recruit him again!

Tony demonstrated his expertise by providing a clever and considerate remedy to our inadequately installed kitchen cabinet doors. His resourceful solution spared us the trouble of procuring new door fronts. For an ethical and meticulous service, Tony stands out as the optimal choice.

Initially, we brought Tony on board to address an issue with a large hole that the previous homeowner left behind after removing their TV mount. Tony was able to seamlessly patch, prime, and paint the area in question, as evidenced by the accompanying photos. However, we quickly learned that Tony is a true jack-of-all-trades. Not only was he able to expertly fix 2 broken sliding doors, but he also successfully identified and sourced a specific part that was needed. Additionally, Tony took the time to impart some valuable tips and tricks to us as new homeowners. Needless to say, Tony has become our go-to handyman, and we have already referred him to our neighbors for their ongoing maintenance needs. Don't hesitate to enlist Tony's services – he is a true gem!

It's no exaggeration to say that I was torn between all five of these categories. Our project required some truly innovative cabinet strategies, and he was the perfect person for the job. He truly assumed responsibility for the project, and saw it through to completion. I won't hesitate to enlist his help again in the future!

Our kitchen trash drawer was fixed exceptionally by Tony! He not only corrected the issue of it hanging off to the side, but also gave it a fresh new look by applying some primer. Tony is an expert in his field, very professional and efficient in handling any task assigned to him. We're extremely satisfied with his work and have an entire list of tasks ready for him to undertake. It's safe to say that Tony is now our go-to handyman!
