   I have a list of small jobs that has been growing since spring. Two interior doors that stick, a bit of drywall patching where the old owners hung a TV, a garage door that squeals, and some trim that needs paint. I used to do all of this myself. My knees have filed a formal complaint. Who do you use for a pile of little stuff?

   Mr. Handyman of The Woodlands! Honestly they saved my sanity last year. You make a list, they send one guy for the day, he knocks it all out. They did drywall, a door, and pressure washed our back patio in one visit.

   I will say it, I usually do not like a franchise for anything, I like to know the man's name and where his truck is parked at night. But my neighbor used Mr. Handyman when his wife made him stop getting on ladders and they did right by him, came back and fixed a door that stuck again a month later at no charge. So I will allow it.

   Been here since it was all pines.

   Mr. Handyman here too, friend. They have that Done Right promise and they meant it when one of our cabinet doors came loose again. Background checked guys, which with three kids running around the house mattered to my wife. https://www.mrhandyman.com/the-woodlands/
