The Handylady

About The Handylady

From mounting a TV to fixing a sticking door, small home jobs are the focus of The Handylady in Niles. It has been operating for 8 years. It is a small, one-person outfit.

The listing sits in the handyman category, a broad label for general home repairs. A written list of tasks, with a photo of each, is the easiest way for a handyman to estimate how long the visit will take. Its answers on project type are repairs, installation, maintenance, assembly, painting and cleaning. Under estimated hours, the profile lists A full day of work. The work focus it lists: doors, windows, interior walls, exterior walls, cabinets and shelving. It is filed under cabinet installation, dishwasher installation, door repair and exterior painting as well.

Under cabinet installation, The Handylady works on fitting new boxes, doors and drawers into place. Flat-packed or ready-to-assemble cabinets have to be built before they are hung, which adds time compared with cabinets that arrive already assembled.

The schedule takes in Saturday: Monday to Saturday 8:00 am to 9:00 pm. Nearby towns include Morton Grove, Park Ridge and Skokie; if the job is in one of them, ask whether it is covered.

Let The Handylady know if any job is in an awkward spot, such as above a staircase, in a crawlspace or on a second-story exterior wall. Ladders and access can change how long a simple task takes. Photos of every task on your list usually make the first conversation shorter and the estimate more accurate.
