Common questions
How do I get a quote?
Text a few clear photos, your town, and a short paragraph to (715) 777-8113. Show the whole job and anything that affects access, such as stairs. We'll reply by text. Quotes are free, including any visit we need to price a suitable job.
Is there a minimum?
Yes. Our minimum total job price is $250. That's the minimum for the whole agreed job, not an extra fee or a deposit. Getting a quote costs nothing.
Can I call you?
We don't accept incoming calls or offer phone support. Send your request by text. If you request a callback, we may be able to call you, but it isn't guaranteed.
How do approval and payment work?
Once we've agreed on the work, total price, and schedule, we'll text you the written agreement and payment link. Review and sign the agreement, then pay the full agreed amount before we start. If the scope changes, we'll agree on the change and any price adjustment in writing before doing extra work.
What areas do you serve?
Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley, including Chippewa Falls and Altoona depending on the job. Include your town in your first text so we can confirm.
Do you accept every job?
No. Our service is for straightforward jobs we can clearly scope, price, and complete. If it needs extensive back-and-forth, specialist work, or more planning than we can offer, we may not be the right fit. We'll tell you plainly.
