Services, Rates & Policies

Schedule permitting, I take on jobs of varying degrees from small single visit handyman repairs and punch lists to major remodels and renovations or new construction projects. I am well experienced in nearly all aspects of new and remodel construction from rooftop to crawlspace, so I am confident that I can handle your needs. I am also handy with intermediate automotive repair and proficient in home & car audio/video design and installation as well. I do network with other local professionals, however, and will subcontract specialized trades if necessary to keep your project on track. 

One Man Army, LLC operates exclusively on a "time and materials" basis, meaning that I charge for my actual labor hours worked, while a client is responsible for directly assuming the cost of materials. For both parties' convenience, I sometimes pay for small materials costs or dump fees out of pocket and itemize them with receipts onto invoices, should a shopping trip or dump run factor into your project. Subsequently, my hourly rate applies to any time accrued for shopping trips or dump runs, etc., occuring at any point in the workday. Should I begin a workday on a materials or dump run, then hours will begin to accrue upon arrival at the retail location or facility. 

I charge a flat hourly rate with a minimum charge for single visit jobs under 5 hours. My minimum charge does not apply, of course, to major ongoing projects wherein intermittent partial days may occur by necessity, i.e. stages of a project requiring "drying times," etc. 

For potential clients outside of the North Kitsap County service area greater than 30 miles from downtown Kingston or East of Puget Sound, my extended commuting policy is as follows:

Daily working hours shall begin accruing upon initial departure from my office and cease upon my return. Any necessary tolls incurred along the shortest route to your job site location will be itemized, with receipts attached, to your daily/weekly invoices. 

I draft invoices for immediate payment weekly on Fridays or, in some cases, whatever day happens to be the final day I am working your project for that week, whichever comes first.

I accept cash, check, Venmo and PayPal. All necessary payment information is provided with your invoice.

I do not accept prepayment of any kind nor do I provide bids or contracts.
