Nice to meet you!
We provide home-remodeling BATH & TILE labor directly to homeowners in Charlottesville, VA. My work is backed by over 25 years of experience. I pay attention to the details that are important to you. I have the unique talent of translating your style-vision and needs into REALITY. I believe everyone deserves a home that fits your lifestyle and budget! Service area is 10 mile radius around the UVA Rotunda (so neither Crozet nor Ruckersville). UPDATE: We are gratefully booked 4-6 months ahead so to maintain quality we cant look at any NEW bath and tile projects til after then. We sometimes use Zoom meetings for initial consult if possible for clients.
We will collaborate and I will be personally involved in all phases of your project. Unlike a franchise with several unrelated crews, I will be the one LOCAL, consistent contact with you thru every step: brainstorming and estimating, onsite working and adapting, providing information and finally cleaning up at the finish line.
I am both kid and pet friendly and I look for opportunities to increase your home’s sustainability and efficiency. We mingle modern and vintage elements. When you need more skills than a handyman and less than a new-home builder text or email me.
About Mark
Growing up in Northeast Ohio he used to tag along with his Architect Grandpa who remodeled homes, rental homes and antique furniture. Mom was a supervisory-RN in the Emergency Dept. and his Father taught him accounting, gardening and mechanical repairs. Some say home-remodeling is in Mark’s blood. Mark was a straight A-student, mathematically-gifted and graduated from Lorain Community College. Although encouraged to go into accounting he loves working with his hands RESTORING, repairing and building things for people to enjoy. He started working in a lumberyard, remodeled his own house, friends hired him, next he painted, renovated and managed residential rental properties, framed and built additions, built a house, gutted and flipped a Belmont-neighborhood house and some duplexes, remodeled kitchens and bathrooms, and now remodels BATHROOMS and homes for clients in Charlottesville, VA.
Married to Beth since 1984 they moved to C-ville in 1995 and Beth worked at UVA for 20 years in Administration. Mark is honest, nonsmoking, customer oriented and thrifty. Mark is a licensed and insured residential contractor that is always improving the quality of services. Clients like that Mark is efficient and has multiple skills to keep the project progressing rather than a client juggling several different unrelated workman schedules which leads to wasted time in a project.
Mark knows how to sequence the pieces of your project to best fit together. Mark communicates thoughtfully with clients and cleans up after himself. Many clients have been pleased and invited him back to do additional projects over the years and refer him to their friends.
Mark volunteered his skills restoring Historic Fry’s Spring Beach Club est. in 1921 and as Treasurer of The Charlottesville Swing Dance Society (CSDS) 2005-2015 where our favorite dances are West Coast Swing, Hustle and Country Two Step. He collected food weekly for a homeless shelter and participated in Day of Caring Projects. He is an active member of Organic Bellair Farm CSA, The Sierra Club and The Buy Fresh – Buy Local supporters of local agriculture. Reusable building materials from our projects are donated to the Habitat for Humanity Store.
