About Me:

I’m passionate about service & have never been satisfied with just helping somebody. Instead, I prefer face-to-face interactions as well as the opportunity to create personal relationships. Yellow VAN Handyman gives me the opportunity to do this consistently & still protect time for my family. My day is truly complete when I’ve finished a project for a member (customer) & still make it home for dinner.

Prior to becoming a professional handyman, I was in the US Marines. I’ve always had an inclination for working with my hands & frequently maintain & improve my own house. Helping friends & family with odd jobs on the interior or exterior of their homes is something I naturally enjoy.

I want to help make my member’s lives easier, reduce their stress, & free up their time by always being available to take care of their to-dos. Consider me your licensed, bonded, & insured handyman on retainer.

When it comes to fixing things, my greatest strength involves repairing flooring, such as replacing tiles & laminate, & laying sub-flooring. With some TLC, a floor can completely transform a room. My most unusual job was the removal of a deceased rodent from under a floor; the member was very grateful.

Most commonly I am scheduled to repair drywall, including small patches & full sheets. When I touch-up the texture & apply a fresh coat of paint, I ensure the final product is flawless. I also do many large projects like bathroom & kitchen remodels or upgrades. At the same time, I make quick work of tasks like fixing a running toilet, leaky faucet, clogged drain, broken electrical outlet or squeaky/stuck cabinet door/drawer.

When a member refers me to their friends or family, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. It shows that they not only trust me but have extended that trust to their loved ones. I work very hard to provide the person referred with the same high level of service.
