Sometimes it takes a turn of events for you to find your passion. For Grant Priehs, a move to Madison was the impetus to explore new opportunities and do what he loves.
Priehs left work as an Art Director at a fast-paced marketing agency and began a successful career as a handyman in Madison. His company, Honey Do Handyman Services, has provided a rewarding way to help others. “Every homeowner has a list of things they notice every day - small tasks or updates that they just never get to; their ‘Honey-do’ list. But when you’re selling your home, you don’t want to have potential buyers leaving a showing with a dozen things they’ve noticed,” he says.
Priehs enjoys helping people complete projects they may not have the time or ability to complete on their own. His design background and attention to detail provide the added skills needed to make a big difference in any home.
For example, consider a home that needs to sell, but lacks some curb appeal. Priehs knows how small changes can greatly improve the overall look of the home. He also has the resources and abilities to make those changes for a client. Changes could include updating landscaping, adding a new paint color, or power-washing the home. He can help a client troubleshoot, and determine a cost-effective solution.
Priehs specializes in the smaller jobs- like installing new lighting, adding a backsplash, installing new sinks or door pulls and repairing furniture. "A lot of the larger contractors really only take the big jobs. I enjoy the smaller projects, and I specialize in providing high quality service for projects that seem small, but make a huge difference in a home," he says.
He's also skilled at furniture repair, and enjoys making used items look new again. "It's nice to see an item refreshed or re-purposed in a new way," he says. Furniture repair also comes with the benefit of reducing waste, and making the most out of available resources.
Priehs is willing to provide service estimates in advance. He is skilled with quick turnaround, and he's also willing to help customers select the right products before an install happens.
