Bathroom Upgrade In Downtown Charleston South Carolina

Most of my work these days is purely functional, yet sometimes I still do small remodel, handyman and home improvement projects. I figure, I’m there, I have the tools; why not help my clients out with as many of their needs as possible.

I learned appliance repair in my Father’s laundromat business. At 11 I was taught how to make electrical cords by fabricating the plugs and then attaching them to Wascomat commercial washers, I can remember doing a hundred at a time. By the time I was 17 and driving, I was doing maintenance on 8 laundromats all over Charleston.

As young men do, I left that trade and wandered through many others, the one relevant to this article was high end trim carpentry and historic renovations. One of the highlights of this era to me was getting to rebuild the kitchen in the Calhoun Mansion.

However, as the years went by and it became harder on my body to move and set up all the construction equipment required to perform this work. So in 2012 I went back into Appliance Repair and here I am.

Still, I like to still keep my skills sharp by doing occasional home repairs. The latest is a bathroom upgrade for a client who has used my services for several years. He would have done it himself, he told me, except that he had pinched a nerve in his back and was not up to it.

So over the course of the next two afternoons I pulled out his old damaged toilet then replaced both the toilet and added a new pedestal sink where the old had been. When finished it felt really good to have done something that made a room not only more livable, but also prettier.

So if you’re in need of home repairs or improvements, give me a call, I’ll be glad to help.
