It's been a nutty couple days, so this blog is going to be short and sweet.
One of the questions new homeowners ask quite a bit is, "where can I find a good handyman to fix a problem or remodel my home." Well, if you are looking for an excellent carpenter in St. Louis for anything from general repairs to complete basement finish, I have two guys to recommend for the job.
One is Steve Fechter at Project Complete. You can find his web site at http://www.projectcomplete.net. Steve can truly do almost anything (windows, decks, framing and drywall)- although his specialty is finishing basements (check out his themed basements on his website). Steve is also great for larger jobs as he has a crew of workers from which to use.
The second is John Redinger at Handyman Red. John just moved to St Louis from Alaska after meeting a local girl, so he's in the process of establishing himself and his business. He's great for smaller handyman projects- hanging doors, painting, remodeling closets, etc.
I have personally used both and have no reservations referring either professionally. In fact, BOTH are working on my home this week! (My wedding is two weeks away so I'm trying to rehab quickly before I have to entertain guests). That's why I can honestly say their work is superior as are their demeanor with clients.
Steve is currently scheduling basement finish work for May. John is booked around three weeks out, but he generally schedules time to squeeze in emergency projects. Give either a call and tell them I sent you. If you need something done, you'll be glad you did.
