Gutter Fillers!

Cheaper and Better than Gutter Helmet!

Leaves, helicopters, and pine needles cannot get into your gutter if your gutters are already full! They just lie on top, dry up, and blow away.

Gazebos

Gazebos are cool! Really! 

Shady, breezy, bug free, and cheaper than a back porch roof.

My Shed Philosophy

What? There's a philosophy on sheds? You bet your sweet bippy there is!

I can assemble any shed you can buy at any store...
   IF you let me build it on a Solid Floor! 
  NEVER assemble a shed right on the ground!
  Most floor Kits are NOT good enough!

OR, I can BUILD you MY shed!
    It's Bigger, Better, and CHEAPER!

You Can't Sell Your Home?

It's not the mortgage mess, and it's not the economy. That's part of it, of course, but that can't be all of it. You see other houses moving. Why not yours?

I know WHY. I can TELL you why...

ASSEMBLIES!

I can assemble computer desks, bookshelves, entertainment centers, gazebos, and paddle fans.

Anything that comes with a big bag of small parts and an instruction book written by somebody who just learned English yesterday.

Curb Appeal

You've gotten so used to that old mailbox that you don't even see the rust anymore. Hey, it works. It's just a mailbox. 

But your guests see it. Don't think they don't, just because they don't tell you about it.

What about your railings? Basketball hoop? House numbers?

 
 
 

 

Look at these overgrown bushes. I bet the rooms are gloomy.

I can cut these bushes off at the ground (no need to pull the roots), bundle them up for your trash, plant new smaller bushes, and spread some mulch. 

For less than $100 you can have brighter rooms, more air on breezy days, and a more attractive house.

 

 

Nobody EVER has enough storage!

I can install new closet organizers.

Get more stuff into the same closet, and keep your things neater, too.

You can't yell at your kids for a messy room if there's no place for them to put their stuff.

Gain attic access.

How much storage space are you wasting because of that small trap door they gave you. I bet it's in a closet, above a shelf, right?

You may not need to go as far as folding stairs. A bigger trap door in a hallway might be enough. Use your stepladder to get in. 

Assemble a new back yard shed.

If you don't like my "Bigger, Better, and CHEAPER shed (CLICK HERE), I can assemble a vinyl or metal shed.

If you're trying to sell your home, these are GREAT! Hide your junk, then take this shed with you when you move.

 
 
 

 

How Much Garage And Basement Space Are You Wasting?

I can install shelving, hooks, and organizers in your basement and garage.

I can build you a shelf that hangs from your ceiling over your car's hood! 

I CAN GET YOUR CAR BACK IN YOUR GARAGE WHERE IT BELONGS!

Sample Joke From Prior Newsletter

A man went to a psychiatrist.

"Doctor, I just KNOW there's a monster under my bed. I get out of bed, look, see there's no monster, and get back into bed. Then I get that feeling again. I have to keep checking all night long. I haven't slept in MONTHS!"

The psychiatrist says, "I can cure that. $150 a session, three times a week. It could take only two months, but it might take six months."

The man replies, "I can't afford that! I'll get back to you."

But he never does go back.

One day, the two bump into each other at a store. The psychiatrist asks, "Well? Are your monsters still under your bed?"

The man answers, "No. My handyman cured me!"

 "WHAT???"

"Yeah. He cut my bed's legs off!"
