Tacoma washinton handyman

[Randy White]

hey there BP!  I'm looking for a handyman for a few projects for my property in Tacoma Wa.  I have been doing all the work by myself, but now I am transitioning to hiring out the work. Do any of you have a good reliable handyman that you'd recommend? Thanks in advance!

@Randy White@Cailyn Aune 

Good morning, I came across your post and would like to introduce myself. I'm a GC out of Olympia and altho most of my work is kitchen, bathroom remodeling and appliance installation. I also take on Inspection repairs from realestate  agents and investors. I would be happy to talk with you about your handyman needs... 

Thank you!

@Cj Juan- Thanks for the introduction! I'm looking for two things.... 1. An experienced and capable "handy man" for anything that might come up with a rental that needs addressed, and 2. Trustworthy contactors for a home that needs rehabbing....  Where do you see yourself... more #1, or more #2? Thanks Cj!

@Cailyn AuneMy pleasure.. I will say what I tell all my clients. If I cant do it I will makesure that I find someone that can. Whether its someone that I have on speed dial or I will exhaust all my connections to find someone. 

Answer #1 Example: I work with a Realestate/investor on small projects, flips, handyman repairs on his rental properties and when he needs inspection items repaired. Before I moved to Oly I was a Maintenance Director of a Nursing home and also has a license as a handyman at one time. Handy man work is not my main source of income but I have no problem doing the small jobs asked of me. Its about building trust! Lets be honest.. A small job can possibly get me a large job or project.

Answer #2 As stated above remodels, flips and rehabs are my number one source of income so as far as where do I see myself? Then yes! I lean on the remodel side of the business. As you know remodels fill the space in the calendar but lets face it.. handy man work helps me when it gets slow. I like the fact that when clients call sometimes they tell me that they cant find a GC that will take on handyman work. This is to my benefit. By far remodels are number one.

A little more to add... As a GC and appliance installer I love both sides of the business. Being a GC brings out the creative side in me. Also I get to spend more time with the client and build a relationship. The appliance installations brings out A passion I have for appliances (not a lot of people want to touch them since there is so much that can go wrong). Plus when I'm at there home for an hour  to maybe 8 hours I don't get the same bond like a remodel. Being a GC/appliance installer might not be the same but it has its similarities, its all about building a relationship with the client.....     

Enjoy the rest of your weekend..

My nephew helps me out time to time for my company. He likes handyman jobs since he's going back to collage might be what you need.

I just posted on a similar topic seeking an investor friendly handy man in the south Snohomish county area...

Will be interested to find out if there is any referrals out there!

@Cailyn AuneI just wanted to connect with you about my last post to you. You did not respond so I was just wondering if I answered with to much detail? My wife says I talk to much but I say I love what I do...@Randy WhiteThanks again!!

[Cailyn Aune]

@Cj Juan- Ha ha... no, nothing like that! We've just had a very busy last couple of weeks, and I haven't been able to follow up on things the way I would've liked. Thank you for all the details regarding what you do, and what you're working towards. I appreciate it! I will take note for when we get ready to venture in that direction... thanks!
