Russian River Handyman

Company Overview

I began my journey in construction, remodeling, and handyman tasks at the young age of eight. Thanks to my grandmother's real estate and contractor's license, I learned vital skills including drywall, painting, flooring, and window installation. We would acquire house parts at auctions, transport them to her properties, and remodel them for rental income. When I finished high school, I had already helped remodel and build more than 40 houses. After working for another contractor for a while, I felt the need to establish my own business and returned to Guerneville to provide my clients with reliable, trustworthy, and quality services.

I began my own business nearly twelve years ago. Prior to that, I worked for family members who had homes needing remodeling or construction. When I turned 17, I worked for a contractor for three to four years, remodeling and building homes, even constructing his house with him. Since that time, I have ventured into numerous trades in various sectors. I worked in the carpenter's union and contributed to the Graton Rancheria Casino. Indeed, I am aware of where the vault is! Lately, I have partnered with contractor friends on various projects for the last decade and created a cooperative of workers. I have been involved with Daily Acts, Clean River Alliance (now Russian River Keeper), and volunteered for a month after the flood to help clean garages. During the fires, I volunteered and successfully saved a friend's home from burning. Additionally, I helped build homes for the homeless, and they were no longer homeless. Currently, I aim to assist people in finishing their honey-do lists and enjoy their homes while collaborating with good people.

I have spent roughly 30 years in the trades. Starting at eight years old, I worked on houses and absorbed a lot of knowledge from my grandparents. Having a family full of contractors, I was always engaged in fixing or building something during my childhood, often my own room. We moved frequently, so as the older brother, I often ended up with the less desirable rooms, which I would remodel. I regularly helped my mom with improvements around the house and property.
