First review for Paul! I had a pleasant experience with him. He is prompt, polite, and very communicative.
I had quite a couple things in my house that needed sprucing up - here were my list of tasks for him:
Electrical / Fixtures
1) Buy and Replace Light Fixture cover in bedroom - Paul replaced the broken cover with a LED.
Appliance / Plumbing
2) Dishwasher leak: Leaking from left corner, likely a leveling or sealing issue - Out of Paul's scope, I needed to hire a specialist for this.
Carpentry / Interior Repairs
3) Upstairs bathroom countertop: small chip that needed patching.
4) Bathroom cabinet door: corner panel was separating slightly - needed gluing/repair.
5) Small missing section of baseboard trim that needed to be purchased & nailed in.
Caulking / Sealing
7) Bathroom re-caulking: bottom of tub seal is peeling.
8) Mailbox: not sealed well, so mail gets wet when it rains; looking for a way to better seal or reinforce it for now - Paul bought a little cover and installed it, it looked so cute!
Outdoor Repair
9) Fence Latch was loose/broken and needed fixing.
There were a few items requiring a tall ladder and cementing a step stone that was a bit out of Paul's scope, and a dishwasher appliance fix I had to hire a specialist for as mentioned above.
Costs as of January 2026 are $150 for the first hour, and then $75 for each hour after that + any parts needed.
Other than that - all the fixes above cost $622 for labour, material, and tax. I'd say that's pretty fair for a day of hard work and things I just do not want to spend my life doing on my own, lol! Thank you Paul! read more
