After a 25 year career as a Trauma Nurse & Perfusionist (the guy that runs the heart / lung machine during open heart surgery), my job was 'modified'. They offered more hours & less $, or a 'package'. I took the package & answered a handyman ad with one of the franchises. Having worked on my own buildings for 30 years, the experience wasn't as challenging as remembering to pack all the correct stuff for a different job every day.
I started coming home from work telling my wife "I love my job". (a phrase seldom heard in hospitals). I still say that today. Working for the franchise taught me the business end of being a handyman and in 2004, the Portage Park Handyman Service was launched. This year my wife Judy joined the business as the handy ma'am. This expands our services to include curb appeal/
Thanks to all of the customers who found me through Yelp. They helped make this handyman's business successful.
