Hello. I'm Charlie. Bonded and insured, I have over 20 years of experience working in the art world, general contracting and furniture/architectural fabrication.
Over the last several years, I've concentrated on art installation. Clients regularly ask me to advise on art placement in their homes. I also work with many interior designers, all of whom value my aesthetic input. When you hire me, you'll be getting an expert in art hanging, along with the added benefit of 'design services'.
**NOTE ON MY PAY RATE**: In most cases, I price by the job, taking scope and complexity into account. This pricing system is transparent and equitable for all parties because I work quickly and meticulously. To put it plainly, you won't see me moving at half speed to prolong a paid by the hour job. Please check out my reviews for confirmation!
Services I provide specifically through Thumbtack include:
--Picture hanging and art installation
--Window treatments
--Lighting installation
--Ceiling fan installation
--Closet and shelving systems
*I also do TV mounting
Installing all manner of objects (art, heavy items, mirrors, shelves, etc.) is also a specialty of mine.
I have expertise in what I call the "Big Three": materials, fasteners and tools. Knowing how these interact with each other in any scenario is the key to success on the technical side. I'm an excellent listener and a very clear communicator, qualities that are critical when dealing with clients.
*I do provide a COI at an additional cost ($40) if that's required by your building.
NOTE ON LIGHTING INSTALLATIONS:
While I have years of experience installing all kinds of light fixtures, outlets, switches, etc., I AM NOT A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN. If your building or your particular job requires one, PLEASE CONSIDER THIS BEFORE CONTACTING ME. Thanks.
