Sawyer Home Repair and Remodeling

Unfinished Carpentry, Handyman Services, Drywall,

About us

My crew consists of me and Dan. I’m very fortunate to get 10-20 calls a week and be very busy. Often I’m booked up 6-12 weeks in advance. So if you’re looking for something ASAP then most likely I can’t help but occasionally I I can get to some. So it’s best if your able to plan ahead. I perform home repairs and remodeling. My work varies from small repairs such as drywall patches, hanging doors, trim work, handrails to remodeling bathrooms, kitchens or basements. I try to keep the work I do limited to what Dan and I can do. I will sub out larger plumbing and electrical work when needed. I've got away from working on roofs. I provide free estimates when I have time to look at jobs. I don't mark up the price on materials. I'm sorry I don't take credit cards. Cash or checks are fine.

Had the garage plastered and paints. Once it was finished, Jim felt the floor needed painted to make it look good. He was right. The garage looks great and Jim did a fantastic job.

Not only did he do a great job which we were completely satisfied with, but he used different varnishes to blend the color to camouflage the damage of the stripped varnish. It looked almost as if there was never any damage to begin with and did this all in a span of 3 days from the day I called to completing the job. Much appreciated his timeliness and professionalism. Would definitely recommend him and his work.
Description of Work: Jim repaired the finish on a door that has been damaged by an adhesive.

Work was performed in a professional manner. The results were up to expectation. Jim's attention to detail is obvious in the results. The shadow boxes had been made of solid birch, and Jim was careful to remove the wood so that it could be used again on another project. We are new to the area, and Jim was very helpful with area information as well.
Description of Work: Remove shadow boxes built into walls, reframe, put in sheetrock, tape and bed in several locations. The job was difficult because the opposite side of the wall was also indoors and finished. Patch, seal, and paint walls and ceilings in living room and hall.

It went well. I had to push the appointment back half an hour yet James was cool about it which is much appreciated. He installed the fixtures and the sink now performs well. He also had a few needed parts in his van which was great because he didn't have to run to a hardware store. I am pleased. Keep up the good work!
Description of Work: I needed fixtures switched out on a sink, that same sink to stop leaking (a drain stop was put on by someone else and it wasn't done properly and the pipe fitting underneath the sink leaked) a lock put on a window and finally, a closet door handle to be tightened.

Affordable & Absolutely beautiful. Perfect job without any blemishes to the painting and perfect corners on the floor all around the room and in closet. We have been waiting for 20 years to remodel this room and could not be happier with the finished product. Jim was done in 2 days and cleaned up everything as requested. Jim came in under budget also a real pleasure we never enjoyed before. He covered my carpet floors while the job was in process, no other contractor who worked on our house over the past 2 years ever did that, we really appreciated that touch. My carpets are old but I have them cleaned once a year so that was a big relief to me. We are planning out a series of other quick projects and will have those quoted soon. We don't have any time lines so we can just fit right into Jim's schedule as he has openings. We just can't say enough about how pleased we are. I will post pictures when we are done restoring and installing the floor molding.
Description of Work: Remove old carpet and pad from 10 X 11 bedroom. Seal and paint ceiling with textured plaster on it. Prep and paint walls. Prep floor and lay laminate.

Great! Jim ran my water line through another room in order to get it to my basement. You cannot even tell the line runs through that room because he was able to take off trim and run it behind! I assumed it would be visible but it isn't which I love! He cleaned up after himself and was very friendly! He will be my go to contractor from now on!
Description of Work: New water line ran from fridge to basement (difficult due to new addition). Ceiling opened up to have plumbing worked on.

Mr. Sawyer showed up exactly when he said he would. He did the job quickly, as always, cleaned up and left a cleaned up space.
Description of Work: Took apart the kitchen faucet and cleaned out the filtering system which had been clogged when a water main broke in the neighborhood. He did the same service for the shower heads in our bathrooms.
