Introduction
Estimates are always free! My minimum job fee is $190 This usually takes care of most small jobs and covers the first two hours. $80 per hour after that. I'm happy to source and pick up materials for you but I do charge a $50 material delivery fee for small deliveries.. and $150 for large material deliveries. After hours emergency service (Anything after 6pm) is available at a rate of $100 per hour. I do have a senior discount available. First things first, I carry a full business liability insurance policy for my protection and my customers! My focus is honest communication and guaranteed quality. I take my time with jobs and ensure a high level of attention to detail. The small things matter! I have an eye for that kind of thing. I've been doing home repair and remodeling since I was a teenager. Through the years I've worn many hats including...an Aircraft Mechanic. Being trained in aviation allows me to bring a special kind of attention to projects. Safety first, and a project has to have good bones. I stay on the job until the customer is satisfied, period. I'm passionate about helping people transform their lives through home repair and maintenance tasks. It's a pleasure to be able to serve the Minneapolis area.

Jacob quickly repaired a fence that had fallen in two places at my home—he did excellent work! He was communicative and helpful and the job was done quickly with no issues. I would highly recommend his work and will use him again in the future, he was great! It’s hard to find a good handyman and he has my recommendation.

I hired Jacob for a garage door repair and he was incredibly responsive. He gave me a quote very quick and scheduled the job soon after. The repair was done very well and it was a very smooth process. I would hire Jacob again.

Details: Casing • No, I will need the carpenter to provide the molding or trim • As recommended by carpenter • 0 - 40 ft • I would like it painted

Jacob did a couple projects for us. He’s a very good communicator and is reliable. Even when he used a sub contractor, he was on top of the whole project start to finish. Definitely will hire him again.

Details: Storm or screen door • Basic door (swings open and shut) • Metal • Problems shutting the door • Hinge repair

I have used Jacobs services a few times and it’s great to know him as a reliable, consistent and communicative professional. I recently decided to do some minor improvements to 2 bathrooms (changing bathroom valves which required cutting through the wall ), and Jacob as usual was quick to respond, extremely punctual, and did everything with a great eye for detail. He also explains and gives his recommendation prior to starting a job . I HIGHLY recommend Jacob !

Jacob did the job in half the time a professional plumber said he needed, and for 1/3 the cost. My shower looks great and I already have plans for future projects I will hire him to do!

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Bachelors of Science in Aviation Maintenance Technology

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I taught myself how to use tools as a kid! I took my own training wheels off my bike and figured out how to ride by myself. As a teenager I was taught carpentry by my brother and went to college to be an aircraft mechanic. I’ve been doing home repairs and renovations since about 2010.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Look for someone willing to be honest and say “I don’t know”. It’s important to be able to be straight forward about what we’re good at and what we’re not experienced with!
