Tips For Hiring A Handyman
Finding a good Handyman is a lot like finding a good mechanic. Many things can go wrong with your car, same as with your house. A good Handyman can fix rotted wood, demo walls, paint, tile and caulk. Before you just grab the first Wilmington, NC handyman you see, here are some tips to help you hire someone who is reputable and easy to work with.
Before You Call:
- Walk through your home and list the small repairs needed. Ex: dripping faucet, loose cabinet doors, faulty light switch, etc.
- Walk outside and note peeling paint or rotted wood around doors, windows or eaves.
- Keep your list of all repairs needed near the phone so you can give the handyman a good idea of the job size before they come to your home.
- Make a list of other areas of concern or ones you think might get worse.
- Decide if you'll be able to afford all the repairs at once or if you want them done in phases. If you want them in phases, prioritize what you want done first.
When Your Handyman Arrives:
- Walk through your home with the list and describe each of the repairs to the handyman.
- Ask for references and examples of other jobs they've done that are similar to what you need.
- Keep in mind that they have other jobs to attend to. Don't take too much of their time going into unneccessary details.
I welcome the oportunity to come by your home and discuss any repairs or handyman jobs you need completed. I have many satisfied customers and references as to the quality of work I provide and the honest approach to pricing each job.
Thanks ~ Mitchell Duke - owner.

Here's what our clients have to say:
"Mitchell Duke was a great help during my renovation. He was always professional and on time, every day - and perservered through to the end of each job. I relied on him to see that the rest of the workers were doing their jobs, while he took care of his end of things. It was nice to know that he was here, overseeing the progress and that he was doing such a good job, as well. I highly recommend him!" ~ Emily Marriott
