Scottie's Project Showcase

Here you will find some examples of Scotties exemplary handy-work.

Mud Room Re-Organize

Mud Room Re-Organize This is a project that took a heavily trafficked area off a garage and made it purposeful and efficient. Normally it was a dumping ground for boots, coats, gloves and hats, from all seasons. Items that should have been recycled were stored for years beyond their usefulness, in boxes that no one knew they were there.  When the hard barriers are in place for proper storage, and it is all visible, it takes care of itself with minimal maintenance. The first project was to cover up the mechanical area of the mud room…the furnace, the soft water

Bathroom Barn Door

Bathroom Barn Door

This is a door for an extra wide alcove, between a bedroom and shower area. The opening was approximately 52” x 7’. The custom door was built from T&G pine, glued together and held in place with ratchet straps and 2×4’s while it set. It was finished and squared with pine on the perimeter and center for strength and rigidity, both sides. A groove was cut in the bottom of the door to accommodate the bottom guide. A ¾” poplar ledger board was installed on top to mate with the ¾” baseboard; it was screwed into the studs at 16”

Spare Bedroom Clean Up

Spare Bedroom Clean Up This is a spare bedroom in a basement that houses an electrical panel. We painted, installed plank linoleum flooring, replaced the light with LED and dimmer, and trimmed. This is cost effective to make a room clean and new. It originally had stipple ceilings, common in the 1980’s that aren’t popular now, so most people request removal. We were able to use a putty knife and scrape the ceiling, and fill small imperfections with drywall mud. There are a number of things we could have done: Remove with putty knife.

Scotties Projects

Established In 1985

Being mechanically inclined his entire life, Scottie became good at fixing most everything around the garage and home for others, and out of necessity. Always willing to lend a helping hand when a home owner had repairs that needed to be done. Over the years he realized that there was a growing need for a professional and reliable handyman that could provide home repairs and improvements.

About Scottie

Why Do You Need A Handyman?

Scottie has amassed a wealth of invaluable handyman knowledge over his many years of maintenance and repair. Clogged gutters turn into water damage. Chipped paint leads to wood rot. Dirty filters shorten the lifespan of your furnace. And while small problems are simple fixes now, they’ll be more complicated (even burst-pipe disastrous) later and could ultimately hurt your resale value.

Scott was part of a two man team who rebuilt a large deck and reinforced a sagging sunroom  for us. The work was completed on time and on budget. The workmanship was excellent and we are most pleased with the end result. Scott is very professional and easy to work with. We highly recommend his services.

He is punctual, excellent at communicating throughout the work and honest. I highly recommend Scottie and look forward to having him do more work in my home.
