Sauvage Creations - Handyman Services

My primary goal is to deliver quality products and services on time, and at a reasonable price.

I have lived in New Orleans my entire life.  I attended Catholic schools from Pre-K through graduation from Brother Martin. 

I then decided that I would focus my college studies on Civil Construction and Engineering.  I have always loved engineering - from concept through design through production.  Working for a construction firm, I have been able to apply my education to real world projects and continue to develop my skills.

Repair First!

Repairs are the renovations that will yield the most value for your home. Fix the areas of your home that are in need of attention.  Making small improvements and repairs helps to maintain not only the value of your property, but also allows for years of family enjoyment and pride in your home.

How to Hire a Handyman

The majority of my projects come to me through referrals from previous customers.  That is important because my customers trust my work and know that when they refer a family member, friend or business acquaintance to Sauvage Creations - I will provide them with the very same level of attention and quality of work. 

Hiring your handyman is similar to hiring a contractor, landscaper, accountant, or any type of professional service. There are a number of things to keep in mind when choosing your next handyman. Listed below are a few things to consider when choosing the right handyman.

• References - Hearing from past clients of a handyman or contractor is a great way to learn about someone's reputation, work ethic, and credibility. Anyone proud of their work history will be happy to produce references upon request.
• Pricing - If the job is very small simply describe the problem and ask for a quote over the phone. If the job requires an in-person visit then ask the handyman if he charges by the job or the hour. Typically household problems can get completed within a couple of hours if not less depending on the size of the job. If purchasing new product is needed ask for a quote on the product as well as the labor.
• Experience - Simply ask how long they have been doing this type of work, if they have any educational and professional training and if they have ever performed similar jobs in the past.
• Owner or Workers - Ask the person calling if they are the handyman coming to your house or if someone else is performing the work instead. Many handymen are both the owner and the worker. Try to get the owner to perform the work instead of any potential worker bees of the company.

Finding the right handyman is easy and once you do get the person for the job you are most likely to require their services in the future as a homeowner.  I hope you will give me the opportunity to tackly your many projects and help to make your life a little bit easier along the way.
