Welcome to the Silver Hammer website. We have a lot to offer, so please take a minute to look around!

I have worked hard to build Silver Hammer's reliable and credible reputation by focusing on smaller to medium size projects and home repairs. I work alone and choose the projects that best showcase my attention to detail to give the greatest results.

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT TO EXPECT FROM SILVER HAMMER HANDYMAN.

We look forward to hearing from you.

As always, thank you for supporting small businesses.

What to expect...

Estimate vs Consultation and site visits.

When I first started this business I was so excited people were calling I would drive around going on estimates in person. As my reputation and business has grown over the years, I now receive so many emails, calls and texts I can't possibly drive out to meet everyone as much as I may like to so I had to change how I provide estimates, consultations and site visits.

Estimate:

The first step is to submit pictures of the project(s) or damaged areas.

You can email them silverhammerhandyman@gmail.com .

Once I receive and review them we can discuss further and I can provide a FREE ballpark estimate over the phone and/or email if I feel this is a project I can do for you.

Consultation and site visit:

I can also offer an in person consultation and site visit to go over your project in more detail such as providing damage solutions, design ideas, etc...

An in person consultation costs $100 which will be credited toward the total of the project should you choose to move forward.

My preferred way to correspond is email. I am up at 5am every morning answering emails while enjoying a cup of coffee with our two cats Sadie and Ashley who are wide awake! Once I head out for the day I am focused on the project so I can not always answer the phone or check emails, so please leave a voicemail or send an email.

I do my best to respond as soon as possible.

Subcontractors.

I work with specific electricians and plumbers that I have used many times and have built a relationship with. As a handyman I am allowed to do minor electrical and plumbing like changing fixtures, but for more involved work I call in the licensed professionals.

11th Hour Rescue cat of the month

Mittens' regal persona is evident when you first meet her. She is a 2-year-old calico tabby with a heart full of love and curiosity. She adores looking through windows, watching her surroundings, and will happily come over to rub her head against you when she's feeling affectionate.

11th Hour Rescue dog of the month

Meet Kylo, a resilient pup who was originally rescued from a Texas shelter, overcoming a broken jaw and a bad skin condition. Life improved dramatically for Kylo when he made his way to New Jersey, where he was adopted for a time but returned when his adopters couldn’t provide the time and training he needed. At about 6 years old and 45 pounds, Kylo is a playful dog who thrives with plenty of chew toys and the company of another balanced dog that can match his energy as he has enjoyed many play dates and sleepovers with a volunteer’s pup! He is neutered, current on shots and microchipped.

***Kylo’s adoption fee has been generously sponsored!
