Anyone know a reputable handyman service or company that could install a bathtub and shower surround, do a little drywalling and fix some water tank shutoffs in a couple of bathrooms? Any reputable companies that do good work and don't charge an arm and a leg?

I removed the old surround and tub on Saturday.

I waited two and a half months on a quote from Lowes and they came back with $5600.00 Ridiculous. Don't want to rebuild the bathrooms, just have some leaking shutoff valves replaced, a tub/surround installed and two or three 2 ft by 2ft drywall replaced in the basement.

Thanks for any help in advance. ]]> Mon, 23 Mar 2015 20:58:14 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5904&PID=45204&title=request-for-handyman-service#45204 Sub Contractor Area : Request for Handyman service http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5904&PID=44035&title=request-for-handyman-service#44035 Author: VietVet

Would like to get an interior pre-hung door installed in my basement. Door, trim, shims and door knob hardware have been purchased. Just need someone to install. If you could provide a good reference or you are in the handyman business yourself, please respond via private messenger. Have called handyman services in the area. No one answers the phone at their business.

Thank you.]]> Wed, 26 Nov 2014 05:57:54 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5904&PID=44035&title=request-for-handyman-service#44035 Sub Contractor Area : Historic House Restoration http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5415&PID=39204&title=historic-house-restoration#39204 Author: Vivian Moon

I have worked on several large jobs where we had to call on the Amish craft men from Southern Indiana. They would show up at job site in their black clothing and some of the most beautiful hand made tool chest that I have ever seen in my life. They looked like fine furniture. Then you would just sit back and watch them make the magic happen.

This is now becoming a lost art in the building trades.

I’m glad to know that a young person with your talent is now working in the Middletown area. I wish you all the best. A good cabinetmaker/finished carpenter is worth his weight in gold.

Vivian,

I'm sure I would have loved to meet him! I've meet many old timers who have taught me well. I personally have about 25 years of experience in Historic Preservation. I've worked on many National Historic buildings and homes over the years. I'm a consultant for the Army Corps of Engineers when they need some advice on historic buildings along with several Architects and Developers whom I've also done Consulting work for.

I've been around....
