    Hi,

    I'd rather give business to someone local, and people here usually have great ideas about folks in the area to call...

    I'm looking for someone to give me an estimate to concrete my (small) driveway, since it's sortof bald now but once was gravel... Does anyone know anyone that is local and reasonably priced?

    And I'm looking for someone to power wash the house...

    Also, I'm looking for someone to give me an estimate on adding a small screened porch on the house where there is now a deck. Again, any suggestions?

    Thanks so much in advance for any help you can give me!

    Ed Leigh (under pressure power washing) just did our house and it looks great. He stands behind his work and is reasonable.

    Last I knew Annette's husband was looking for odd jobs of this type.

    OK, sorry about that. She emailed me. Thanks for the info...

    Now, I'm still looking for a handyman... I need to redo my floor trim that was never done right (do-it-yourself job gone wrong) and to repair a back door frame/casing...

    Thanks so much to you all! I appreciate any suggestions you have.

    (IF) my hubby was to do your job, he could take care of that stuff as well...It's slow right now so he has time to do these smaller jobs. And he loves trim work, it's actually his favorite hands-on type job to do...

    I used Walt with A-Z concrete for my driveway. He did a great job and was very reasonable.
