Amazon Home Services

Did you know you can buy services from Amazon?

A lot of the projects at the cabin I did myself. But I have had had some pretty bad experiences when I’ve had to hire people. They don’t show up. They leave without finishing. They take the back door off and leave without finishing. They carry the insulation into the attic and just leave it up there in rolls instead of actually putting it down. They tell me the flooring was damaged after they install a few boxes of it.  Yeah…

Well, now you can hire people through Amazon. This could be good!

They offer a lot of services. The things I have actually needed. The handyman is local, but he is paid through Amazon. You schedule through Amazon. You aren’t charged anything until the work is completed. Amazon pays the worker.

Amazon lists 348 different Handyman Services, with the price up front. From installing a faucet, garbage disposal, ceiling fan, dead bolts, garage door opener or storage shed to house painting, cleaning and yard work.

There is also a form to get an estimate from a handyman. You just tell them what the project is. There is even a place to attach photos. You just give the details and measurements and you will get an estimate back. For something complicated, a local handyman will come out and give you an on-site estimate.

You can hire carpenters, tile installers and other home improvement projects.

Amazon Happiness Guarantee

Here’s the great part! Amazon stands behind every service purchased through them. You have someone to stand between you and the handyman. If you’re not satisfied, Amazon will make it right or give you a full refund. You have 90 days from the date of the service to file a claim.
