Sometimes we don’t realize it, but modern homes are intricate and complex structures. From the hundred of feet of electrical wiring to the plumbing supplying you with water to the flooring you walk on, each part of your home plays a specific function to keep you comfortable and safe. When one or two areas of your home malfunction or break down, it can decrease your productivity and lead to an unsafe living environment. Are there areas of your home that have been needing attention? PoweredByPros is here to help you take care of the many small jobs around your house or business so you have more time to pursue the things that are most important to you. We provide professional, safe, and reliable handyman service for your entire “To Do” list. Whether you’re looking to do some home remodeling, need some general labor for jobs around the house, or need drywall repair expertise, our hanyman are known in the industry because they can tackle almost any project.
We get it – there’s nothing like the satisfaction of kicking back after completing a DIY project, knowing you did it all yourself. But have you ever had lingering doubts? Remember the leak repair or the mold you scrubed down? Sure, sometimes it’s fine to do it yourself. However we have learned from many years of experience that many times (more often than not) when homeowners would be much better off in mind, body, and wallet by letting a professional handyman do the work for you. Below are the five main reasons why you should hire an experienced service professional to accomplish the repair and improvement projects around your home.
Home repair and update projects that once inspired us can quickly fall by the wayside, lingering on for years past the expected completion date. Even carefully planned home imrpovements can often take far longer than you originally expected. A lot of unknown factors begin to appear as you progress through your project, often requiring you to take time to buy new tools or materials. This just extends the projet time. Hiring a local handyman gives you an assured time frame for completion of your job and the peace of mind that comes with it. A handyman will usually focus on smaller jobs, including many of the ones a general contractor would not take on.
It might seem counterintuitive to think that hirining a handyman would save you money, but in may cases it does. For the first reason, he already has the right tools for the job and can even have favorable connections to local suppliers to get you materials at better rates. Secondly, the old saying ‘time is money’ seems to be more true now than ever before. Our handymen have the experience to get projects done the right way in a timely manner. Lastly, they are flexible and you can hire a handyman to help you out with any aspect of a project, no matter how big or small. This means that if you want to complete most of your repairs or updates on you own, go for it, just leave the complex and time-consuming parts to an expert!
No one needs more stress. Lingering doubts at the onset of your home renovations are just one of the headaches that you can save if you hire a local handyman. Stress is part and parcel of the remodeling process, no matter the size and scope fo the project. This is most evident when it’s not your field of expertise. This stress can ripple through your home, and lead to frustration with your family (especially if your project is bound to take more than a few days). Hiring a handyman relieves the burden of project stress.
According to a survey completed by the Chronicle Herald in California, about 1 in 4 DIYers will end up in the hospital each year due to home improvement related injuries. Often times, homeowners try to take on proejcts that require the use of unfamiliar tools, which increases the risk of injury. This also adds the posibility of damaging your home as well, or worsening the problem you are attempting to solve. It is the primary role of our handyman to ensure excellent results while adhering to strict safety protocols that protect not only themselves, but your home and family.
Without years of training and experience, it is hard to achieve the level of detail and finish a quality local handyman can bring. Even jobs that seem simple such as painting walls and replacing light fittings are harder than they appear when you’re looking for a high-end finish. This is especially true if you are looking to update your home for selling purposes. Potential buyers may see average looking remodels as quick fixes for a more serious problem. Be proud of the finished result and hire a trustworthy, vetted handyman.
It is always smart to view home improvement projects as an investment. Putting your money into areas of your home that are highly desired and commonly used is a great way to maximize your return on investment. Updating, maintaining, and improving these four sections of your home are statistically proven methods to gain financial appreciation for your home.
The bathroom is an integral part of the home that needs to be well-functioning. It is a well known trend in the home improvement industry that a beautiful, usable bathroom increases property value. For example, updating fixtures, installing efficient appliances, and adding a fresh coat of paint in your bathroom will dramatically change the way your bathing space appears and will give you a high return on investment. In recent years, smaller remodels that typically cost less than $5,000 tend to be more worthwhile than large-scale projects.
The kitchen is the heart of the home. For this reason, an open, highly-functional, and modern kitchen is among the top reasons why new homeowners purchased a home in 2019. Our contractors can help you achieve a budget-friendly remodel by refurbishing cabinetry, refinishing floors, and installing new lights.
The way the exterior of your home looks can have a dramatic effect on the selling potential. An appealing, fresh looking exterior is actually thought to raise the perceived value of a home by 5-11% (Michigan State Study). At the same time, remodels that improve your home’s curb appeal tend to be less time-consuming, stressful, and inexpensive when compared to major interior renovations. A beautiful landscape and exterior has been on the rise for years. In fact, 9 out of the top 10 highest Return on Investment remodel projects focus on improving curb appeal.
Newer appliances tend to conserve water and consume less energy. This saves you (and the potential future buyer of your house) money on utility costs. Technologies like smart thermostats and smart home security are highly sought after right now because they make your home safer and eco-friendly, all from the touch of a button on your phone.
