Ye Olde Handyman General Contractor
Company Overview
Being a licensed general contractor allows me to handle numerous services, so you won’t need several contractors for one project that covers different trades. I focus on fixing termite infestations, dry rot, and water damage. I also take care of electrical installations, plumbing solutions, and carpentry, along with many other offerings.

Nick is not just a handyman, he is a licensed electrician and plumber. Having all this knowledge and years of experience in a single contractor makes him a time saver and unique professional in this business. Everything that's sometimes wrong with contractors he got it right: 1) He communicates by txt and is very responsive. 2) Once you're on his schedule you can count that he will be at your home by the time he promised or you will get a txt in advance if his prior job is taking a bit longer. 3) Although he charges by the hour he is super good at estimating how long it would take and therefore you won't run into surprises at the time of paying him. 4) He drives a big van full of supplies, so he is not one of those that either use time during the job to buy what he needs or requires you to provide it unless you want to. 5) He is very thorough and pays a lot of attention to details. He will clean everything after he finishes and he will ensure you're happy with the job before he leaves. If not, he will rework it until you're happy.
At my house he fixed leaking toilets, fixed patio doors that were misaligned and stuck, patched and re-attached a towel rack, fixed a back yard gate, sealed a bath tub and a shower and finally re-grouted a bathroom floor.
You cannot go wrong by contacting Nick, I was very lucky in finding him at Yelp.

Downspouts clogged after rain-- Nick cleaned them all on short notice so we're ready for the next downpour.

Good handy men are very hard to find. I am so glad I was able to find Nick and he was able to help us out with a door repair project.
It turned out better than I expected. I absolutely love how he talked through the process, and ensured we like the outcome. He kept the work space clean. He is honest and his prices are fair for the amazing quality of work you get.
Would definitely recommend him to any one that is looking for a handyman that can help them on small projects.
Keeping him on speed dial as I am sure to call him again :)

I had an issue with my bathroom fan, he was knowledgeable and able to answer my inquiry

If there was an option to give 10 stars, I would!
I reached out to Nick for help with a jammed garbage disposal. Nick for extremely responsive throughout our interaction. He managed to remotely troubleshoot and fix the disposal. If you have anything that needs fixing, Nick's the man!

Nick is a very friendly and experienced handyman. He came to my house earlier than scheduled. Went through all the details and made sure we're aligned on everything before doing any work. He's got all the tools and materials ready in his van so it was zero work for me. It was super awesome, and I would definitely work with him again in the future

Nick is absolutely amazing. He has done a lot of work for us on multiple properties and he will work on all things big and small from just hanging up curtain rods, to looking at electrical. He is super responsive, which I really appreciate in a handyman. He is super organized and punctual. The house we moved has many little problems where stuff was just kind of badly put together. Nick is always very thoughtful and creative in finding a solution to fix things. I love the fact that he has a van with everything organized in there with all the supplies. Everything we have had him work on has been spot on. We were managing a million contractors updating the new house and I cannot express how much I appreciate a reliable handyman that can get things done. Thanks so much Nick!

Why doesn't Yelp provide a 10- star rating?! You know what I'm talking about when you receive such outstanding service from a company/individual that deserves that recognition. Nick is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to knowledge in the construction field and know-how. Over the years he has fixed many things for me. I have referred him to my neighbor, and he currently is working at my mother's house, which is a 60 year old home. He is doing electrical work, dishwasher repairs, new door installation, handicap grab bars in the shower and at the toilet. He has fixed cabinet doors in her RV too. Repaired her hardwood floors and installed new kitchen lighting. Oh and gate repairs. He was busy last year and couldn't get to me on such short notice. I hired someone else...NEVER will I make that mistake again.

Nick was so helpful! He's exactly the person to hire for a list of household issues, and if he can't do something himself he knows who to ask. He arrived exactly on time with his truck loaded up with everything who could need. I was able to run out and pick up some parts while he worked, and the whole process was very efficient. If you need a professional, well-rounded, experienced handyman, Nick is your guy.

Nick did an awesome job setting up a custom shelf for my window AC. I had an AC, an AC bracket, and an unusual window, and none of these were compatible with each other, so I was stuck. I was also getting tired of suffering through heat waves with the windows shut (bad AQI) when I had an AC right. there. taking up space in my living room.
Nick enthusiastically worked with me to come up with a custom solution from start to finish, and clearly relished the challenge. He texted with me the night before to learn what model AC and AC bracket I had. He promised he wouldn't charge me if he came by and couldn't solve my problem, which I appreciated, although I would've paid him anyway for his time.
Nick communicated clearly with me about his arrival times, and wore a mask at all times inside the house. He identified rotting wood in the window frame, thought ahead about how to take the AC down in the winter, made sure to check up on the AC's water collection and drainage, and measured and built the custom AC shelf quickly, precisely, and sturdily. He also sought my opinion at every step and gave me informed choices.
The whole experience working with Nick was a lot of fun for a nerd like me, and I'm also thrilled to be enjoying cool, dehumidified air at home now. Given his professionalism, reasonable rates, quality work, and preparedness, I'm not surprised he's plenty busy. I will definitely hire him again if there's something I need fixing around the house.
