"It's so nice to have a man around the house". 

It's so nice to have a HANDYMAN around the house, when you need him.  Well, I surely did need help.  Maintaining a home is a complicated and expensive job, but essential.  As a real estate agent/broker, over the years, I've seen many properties that lost significant value due to poor maintenance.  Conscientious home owners will benefit in hard dollars when they sell their home if it has been well maintained.  However, some of us just don't or can't perform many routine maintenance jobs ourselves.  I'm one of those folks.  For one thing, my parents didn't give me a toy tool belt when I was a child.  They gave me dolls.  So, I had five children and learned to cook.  I never learned to "fix things".  At this point, I don't want to.  Today, rather than perform routine property maintenance, I spend time working on web sites, answering my telephone and hanging around ActiveRain. 

So, I hire trained,  experienced professionals to do the maintenance tasks that are essential to keeping a home in good repair and preserve the value of my real estate investment. 

My home in Western Loudoun County is 2 years old and, at this point, it was time to do a walk-through with a competent person capable of evaluating condition and recommending maintenance or repair.  Ryan Sengpiehl, a general contract but offering the general handyman skills that my home needed.
