I appreciate it. In light of the current events situation, I am available for outside work so go ahead and contact me. My hourly rate is $45.00/hour FIRM!!!...Or quote by the job!!! THIS IS TO BE DISCUSSED FROM NOW ON BEFORE I SHOW UP TO DO THE WORK OR TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR WORK TO BE DONE!! TOO many "cheap" people out there "haggle" with me when it comes time to pay the bill at the end of the job so my hourly is FIRM. Secondly, I am a problem solver by nature. I am very handy to have around your property. Most of my work is for the physically challenged or the elderly folks. Specialties are: fixing repairing just about anything basically and problem solving/troubleshooting almost any annoying problem around your home and property. (exmpls: clogged drains, electrical outlets, ect...) \*\*\*\* I LIKE to know what caused the problem in the FIRST place!!\*\*\*\* ... then make common sense suggestions as to how to fix your problem/s.

It DOES NOT last and WARPS). I don't think there's much that I can not do. I am NOT a carpenter or claim to be. I can NOT build an entire home but I MUST clarify that. I am NOT a carpenter but I can do what needs done. Thanks for letting me clarify myself as Ive had a few people ask me about "building walls".

I live out in the woods and my gutters were full and starting to grow little trees, despite being cleaned last fall. I contacted Dan on a Thursday evening and my gutters were clean and had water running through them on Saturday morning. The work was professionally done; they were neat and there was no mess left at all. They worked diligently and got the project done in a few hours. Overall, they went above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and in fact, I will. Dan showed me gutter guards that will make my life 1,000% easier and I’m getting those installed at the house. **Comment from "Dan Johnson Specialties":** > Thank you Lisa. I appreciate the nice words, and the opportunity to do work on your home. Thanks again and ttys on the gutter guard install in the coming week or so. wink - DTM **★★★★★ — M Jovich, April 2019** > When we moved back from VA to PA Dan & his team helped us move our belongings into our new home.
