What to expect...

Estimate vs On site consultation

When I first started this business I was so excited people were calling I would drive around going on estimates in person. As my reputation and business has grown over the years, I now receive so many emails, calls and texts I can't possibly drive out to meet everyone as much as I may like to so I had to change how I provide estimates, consultations and site visits.

Estimate:

The first step is to submit pictures of the project(s) or damaged areas.

You can email them silverhammerhandyman@gmail.com .

Once I receive and review them we can discuss further and I can provide a FREE ballpark estimate over the phone and/or email if I feel this is a project I can do for you.

On site consultation:

I offer an on site consultation to go over your project in more detail such as providing damage solutions, design ideas, etc...

An on site consultation costs $100 which will be credited toward the total balance of the project should you choose to move forward.

Contracts.

Everyone receives an official contract which was drawn up by the Sclar Sclar Law Firm. Each contract includes all the necessary information pertinent to the project including, timeframe, payment and detailed scope of the work to protect the homeowner and layout a path of clear written communication. Silver Hammer is licensed, insured and bonded as per New Jersey state law.

My preferred way to correspond is email.

I am up early to get the goats out of their shed so I take a few minutes every morning to answer emails. Once I head out for the day I am focused on the project so I can't always answer the phone or check emails, so please leave a voicemail or send an email.

I do my best to respond as soon as possible.

Subcontractors.

I work with specific electricians and plumbers that I have used many times and have built a relationship with. As a handyman I am allowed to do minor electrical and plumbing like changing fixtures, but for more involved work I call in the licensed professionals.
