Handy stuff

We knew when we bought the Cull Castle in 2020 that we would be putting in a lot of “sweat equity”, but it wasn’t until moving up permanently that we realized 2 things:

1) it’s impossible to get contractors/service people out here (no wonder there’s so many “Plumas co/DIY specials” out here!), and

2) Lynda’s Dad was handy AF, and I did apparently pick up some of that thru osmosis

That meant we already had most of the (ahem) bits, pieces, and tools to hit the ground running. Since then, we’ve learned a lot more, thanks to Youtube University, and experience.


“Cost, time, quality – pick 2.”

We take a lot of pride in doing a good quality job, and treating your home like ours (meaning, Lynda will notice every little thing out of place!). Especially when provided with the materials, our costs are fair and reasonable.

That leaves time – we do not work very quickly. Project depending of course, it’s likely that we will want to complete your project over a few work sessions.


Please use the form below to request a quote/tell us about your project, and see if it’s something we can help tackle. We usually follow up within 24-28 hrs.

Since acquiring the time, space, and tools, Cris has taken to solving our organizational issues by creating or altering furniture.
