Local Pros We Trust: The DuPage Handyman
At Crystal Broom, we spend our days inside homes all across the western suburbs, and over time you get to know which local pros do honest, dependable work. We're starting a little series to introduce you to a few of them — the people we'd trust in our own clients' homes.
Local Pros We Trust: The DuPage Handyman First up is The DuPage Handyman. From drywall and carpentry to light plumbing, TV mounting, painting, and gutter cleaning, they handle the kind of to-do-list projects that pile up around a house. We asked them a few questions about their work, the things homeowners tend to get wrong, and what a good job really comes down to.
What should homeowners know about what you do — something people often get wrong or don't realize?
We do a little bit of everything — from plumbing and electrical, drywall and painting, carpentry and roof repair, to simply rearranging furniture or cleaning out the gutters.
What's a common mistake you see homeowners make, and how do you steer them around it?
A lot of homeowners try to repair rather than replace, whether it's a faucet or a piece of wood trim. Sometimes a repair gets the job done, but most times we recommend replacing to avoid problems down the road.
When someone hires you, what does a great result look like?
A great result comes from great communication. As long as homeowners can lay out their expectations clearly, we can deliver great results.
Do you have a favorite type of project?
There's no single project that stands out — any job where we're challenged to solve a new problem is enjoyable. Overcoming adversity stimulates the brain.
What areas do you serve, and how can people reach you?
We serve the greater DuPage area — including but not limited to Glen Ellyn, Wheaton, Naperville, Downers Grove, Carol Stream, Glendale Heights, Lisle, Hinsdale, Winfield, Woodridge, and Hickory Hills — and more. You can reach us by call, text, email, or through our website.
