Recently updated list of services below.


Hello everyone!  Thank you for visiting my website.  I love what I do, and I hope you do too!

I am glad you came to find out about handyman services!!!  Thank you for visiting!  

As a side note, I only do residential work. I do not provide service for any commercial clients.

What I accel at:

Ceiling Fans, Ceiling Fans, Ceiling Fans!!!  I am the expert! No one has done more of them than me!!!  Well, I can't actually prove that, but I've done more than 3000 over the past 20 years!!!  Call me first if you need those installed!

Service Area: 

I have posted a map on Yelp and on the "Business Details" tab of this website to indicate my approximate service area to help you decide whether to call me.  If you need a very small job, and you are at the very edge of the map....It may not make good business sense to take that job, don't be offended.  



Comprehensive list of Services:  (if you don't see it, ask) 

Note: Due to the extreme heat during summer months here in Texas, I ask that you consider postponing outdoor tasks marked with "*" until spring or fall when possible. Some of these, although are interior, may require prep/assy/other outdoor steps to complete.
  • *Indoor ceiling and outdoor ceiling/patio fan replacement--all makes and models; with or without remotes.  Ceiling height can be a factor.  Please let me know the ceiling height in advance so I can come prepared or let you know if I can't do it due to height-of-ceiling limitations.  
  • *Installation of:  Security cameras; RING, EUFY, ARGO, WYZE, SIMPLYSAFE and other doorbell cameras; wireless home security systems. 
  • Keyless entry systems from Schlage, Kwikset and other companies. 
  • WIFI thermostats like Nest, Honeywell, ECO BEE and others.
  • LED lighting---disc lights, under counter, pendant and chandelier replacements, recessed, bathroom, etc.

  • Light bulb replacement.  And yes, I do get that call.  People will call and tell me that they replaced the light bulb and ask me to check the fixture.  Folks, it's always the light bulb.....
Special Note: I can not and do not provide haul-off services for debris.  Please make arrangements in advance with your local refuse provider to handle the debris generated by larger jobs.
