What People Are Saying

 

My husband and I are SO GRATEFUL for Jess. She is communicative, dependable, and does impeccable work, all while leaving behind ZERO mess. She’s so good, she even caught some of the corners another contractor had cut and fixed them for us. Her rates are competitive, and she is a wonderful partner in projects ranging from small to large. We’ve already hired her multiple times, and will continue to do so. WE LOVE MRS. FIX-IT!!!!

— Daniel (& Johnny) N.

I'm so glad I hired Jess. She's knowledgeable, skilled, and did an excellent job. In addition she's a pleasure to work with: fair pricing, personable, and fun.”

— Lyn P.

 

“Jess and Nemieka were incredibly helpful with hanging pictures, floating shelves, assembling furniture and other tasks. Jess is super easy to communicate with, they were very efficient and professional and VERY fun to have around while they completed the tasks. I have no complaints, will use them again and highly recommend their services!!”
