West Seattle Handyman & Design

We had a large multiweek basement renovation project for our small mid-1940s home with Michael, including bringing the original stairs up to code, installing an egress window, walling in the bathroom and installing shower, walling in utility room adjacent to stair case, running electrical, and framing/insulating/drywalling/painting the full area (1200 sqft). We were looking for a collaborator vs. a "execute the plan" contractor, and Michael lived nearby and was intrigued by the project scope. We were operating on a pretty firm budget and were able to negotiate the scope to arrive at an acceptable estimated cost. At the time, Michael worked from an estimate with ~weekly billing for labor and materials. This method worked well for us, as the big projects were sort of a "black box" with uncer

I am an electrician in Seattle, and from my experience, mike is the best in the business for remodels, new builds and any smaller projects too. Its almost annoying how fast his jobs go, because we come back to trim right after. Even the inspectors cant keep up. Always quality work too. I highly advise hiring

I am so glad I chose Michael to do my kitchen remodel! Right off the bat Michael was very transparent and willing to work with me on my vision and needs, which I really appreciated and made this project possible. The whole process was very positive and collaborative, and I'm so happy with how the kitchen turned out! I look forward to working with Michael on my other house projects

Michael did a number of projects for me. Though they seemed small at first, like all old houses they turned out to be much bigger in scope. The work was done well and at a reasonable price. What most impressed me was due to a leaking toilet and rotting floor my bathroom project was of a much larger scale, but Michael handled it well and the extra costs for this project were very fair. I would not hesitate to use his services again.

Mike installed our custom closet doors in our home and did a beautiful job. He made adjustments to make sure they fit perfectly to match the style of our home. And not only was he conscious of keeping the area clear of work debris, he is an all around good guy. We will definitely hire him again and couldn’t recommend him enough.
