About us
Jill Of Many Trades- Non-smoking, child and pet friendly woman carpenter. Doors hung, decks built, storage space created; towel bars, curtain rods, blinds installed; miscellaneous repairs, small painting and patching jobs and more. Meticulous and affordable. 25+ yrs experience.
Michelle can help you arrange a closet, a corner or a whole room to store what you have, create or improve a workspace, or just make your space more usable, comfortable or functional. She can help pick out colors and offer design ideas. She has a vast knowledge of what kinds of materials, fasteners, shelving, storage containers, cabinets, and shelving types are available off the shelf to help make a big difference on a modest budget. She can also custom build things from scratch. She can get that door knob to latch, trim a door so it will close, weatherize, or replace an old ugly door with one you will love to see every day. Need a screen or storm door installed? She's got you covered. She has the patience and practice at helping guide people through a project without being intimidating. And she is good at helping husbands who are not handy to feel better about letting someone else do things more efficiently that they could, and feeling good about the decision. Just because someone is a male, doesn't mean they are automatically good at handy type work. Like anything, it takes practice. What would he rather do on his day off? Learn a skill from scratch that he will rarely use (and make a bunch of extra holes in the wall) or spend time with his kids or on a hobby or activity he really enjoys? She can help single women be more independent.
Hiring a woman carpenter has other advantages. Michelle is great at asking good questions to help you describe a problem or challenge you want to address without making you feel dumb. She will patiently walk you through a job from start to finish, and help make the process fun. She is honest and straight forward about what she can or cannot do, and she has great... show more ideas and resources for finding the answers to questions she can't answer herself. She cleans up her messes and pays attention to things like not spreading paint or dirt over your light colored carpet with her shoes. When she crawls behind the dryer to check the vent, she'll grab a hand broom and dustpan and sweep up the dust bunnies ('cause when are you gonna have access to that spot again? Might as well take advantage of the circumstance. That's just how she rolls) She gets along well with your kids and pets. Many people say how much they enjoy having her in their home and around their family. She sets a great example for your daughters (and sons!) for what a woman can do and be. If you have a teenaged daughter that you need to leave at home while you pick up her siblings, no worries. Her pricing is honest and fair. And she's just a very interesting person.
Do you need some help in your home or office? Give Michelle a call or send a note to set up an appointment for a visit or phone call. She'll be glad to help.

Marianne N. asked:Looking for a good handyman/contractor - who will actually listen! Any suggestions?
Michelle B. replied:How about a woman carpenter? I am pretty good at communicating with other women. You definitely won't have to have your husband talk to me to get some respect. Here is a page I made up recently for my carpentry business- https://www.facebook.com/JillOfManyTrades.Carpentry Thanks, Nancy for mentioning me.
