984-250-0011General Questions
What areas do you serve?
We primarily serve Holly Springs, NC and the surrounding areas including Apex, Cary, and Fuquay-Varina. If you're located nearby, feel free to reach out—we may be able to help!
Are you licensed and insured?
We are fully insured, giving you protection and peace of mind on every job. A general contractor license isn't required for the small-to-medium home repairs and projects I handle, since North Carolina only requires licensing for work over $40,000 or certain specialized trades. I stay within the scope that doesn't require a license while still providing professional, reliable, and high-quality service.
What types of services do you offer?
We handle a wide range of handyman services including drywall repair, painting, carpentry, minor plumbing work, fence repair, door and window services, TV mounting, furniture assembly, and much more. If you're not sure if we can help with your project, just ask!

Project Details
Do I need to be home during the work?
It depends on the project. For most jobs, we appreciate you being available at the start so we can discuss the work and answer any questions. For ongoing or multi-day projects, you don't necessarily need to be home the entire time—we can discuss what works best for you.
Will you clean up after the job?
Absolutely! We respect your home and always clean up the workspace thoroughly when we're done. You won't have to worry about leftover debris or mess.
Do you provide materials, or do I need to buy them?
We can handle it either way. We're happy to source and provide materials for your project, or you can purchase them yourself if you prefer. We'll discuss the best approach during the estimate process.
What if I'm not satisfied with the work?
Your satisfaction is our priority. We stand behind our work with a 1-year quality guarantee. If there's an issue, let us know and we'll make it right.
