Handyman across Middle Tennessee

Handyman across Middle Tennessee

Handymen who show up with the tools for the whole list, know what they are not licensed to do, and charge the time it took.

Handymen serving Nashville also take jobs in Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville; the range runs to 65 towns across 12 counties. The houses are not the same in any two of those towns, and neither is the handyman work:

• Nashville. Pre-war houses generate a permanent handyman list — plaster patches, doors planed for the season, hardware that no longer matches — and a handyman who knows old houses does it without making it worse.
• Brentwood. Newer houses call a handyman for what the builder left undone or did fast: doors that never latched, caulk that was never finished, shelving and mounting the owners want done properly.
• Murfreesboro. Newer houses call a handyman for what the builder left undone or did fast: doors that never latched, caulk that was never finished, shelving and mounting the owners want done properly.
• Hendersonville. Older homes keep a handyman busy with the small structural things — a sagging gate, a porch board, a window that will not stay up — that add up to a house that works.
• Columbia. Pre-war houses generate a permanent handyman list — plaster patches, doors planed for the season, hardware that no longer matches — and a handyman who knows old houses does it without making it worse.
• Lebanon. Rural properties keep a handyman busy with gates, outbuildings, porches and the things a long way from a hardware store.
