đź’ˇ We help you Simplify

  1. You just moved in... and the house still isn’t “home.”
    Boxes everywhere? Furniture still flat-packed? We assemble, organize, and hang things where they belong.

  2. You’re taking care of an aging parent, or new baby on the way!
    Need grab bars in the bathroom? Handrails by the stairs? A patient, kind helper makes all the difference.

  3. You’re too busy to deal with the punch list.
    Minor repairs, touch-ups, that one outlet that never worked — we knock it all out so you can relax.

  4. Technology is acting up (again).
    Wifi’s glitchy. The printer’s jammed. Your laptop’s a mystery. We make tech easy and fix frustrating stuff.

  5. You're setting up a home office.
    We'll wire up your workspace, mount your second monitor, run Ethernet, and even help with Zoom lighting.

  6. Your “smart” devices aren’t so smart.
    Let us handle camera installs, smart locks, doorbells, thermostats, and more — no manual required.

  7. You’ve got furniture that needs building.
    IKEA, Wayfair, Amazon — we’ll assemble it fast and clean, and take the cardboard when we leave.

  8. You want someone you can trust.
    We offer courteous, non-judgmental services. Understanding that we are helping with with a client home, we are always discrete.

  9. You want one call for everything.
    No more Googling five different specialists. If it plugs in, mounts on a wall, or needs a screwdriver — we’ve got it.

  10. You just need a hand.
    And we’re here to help. Whether it’s heavy lifting, winterizing the patio, or making sense of your router — we’ve got your back.
