Serving locations in and around Boulder, CO, we are your neighborhood Mr Fix-it. Founder Jim O'Dowd is a local, dependable handyman with a lifetime of experience fixing all kinds of things, including just about anything around the home. Jim has worked with contractors, but mostly with individuals and strives to deliver a professional home improvement experience to the customer. He has a mechanical engineering degree (from Univ of Illinois), with a work history in manufacturing during his first career. After 15 years, Jim switched gears and became an At-Home-Dad, where he honed his 'dad-joke' sense of humor. While the family is still the priority, this 'third act' of providing a service to the community is a rewarding and exciting next chapter.
