Your Trusted General Handyman in Pontotoc, Mississippi

Every homeowner accumulates a list of small repairs, maintenance tasks, and improvement projects that never quite get done. That leaky faucet you've been meaning to fix, the loose cabinet hinges, the wobbly fence post, the door that sticks—individually they're minor, but together they add up to frustration and declining home condition. M&T Handyman LLC is Pontotoc's solution for tackling these everyday home repair needs efficiently and affordably.

As your local general handyman service, we're the professionals homeowners throughout North Mississippi call when they need skilled, reliable help with household repairs and improvements. We're not specialized contractors focused on one trade—we're versatile problem-solvers who handle the wide variety of tasks that keep homes functional, comfortable, and well-maintained.

What Does a General Handyman Do?

General handyman services cover an extensive range of home repairs and improvements. Our broad skill set means one phone call addresses multiple projects. Here are common tasks Pontotoc homeowners rely on us for:

Minor Plumbing Repairs

We fix leaky faucets, replace worn washers, repair running toilets, unclog drains, replace showerheads, install new faucets, fix garbage disposals, address minor pipe leaks, and handle other plumbing tasks that don't require a licensed plumber. If your plumbing issue involves simple repairs rather than complex installations or major system work, we can likely handle it same-day.

Basic Electrical Work

Installing light fixtures, replacing electrical outlets and switches, fixing doorbells, changing ceiling fans, adding USB outlets, replacing smoke detector batteries, installing under-cabinet lighting, and similar electrical tasks are within our expertise. We know when projects require licensed electricians and will advise honestly about which electrical work we can handle versus what needs specialized contractors.

Door and Window Repairs

Doors that stick, won't close properly, or have failed hardware get fixed. We adjust doors, replace hinges, install new locksets, repair or replace door frames, fix sliding doors, repair screens, adjust windows that won't stay open, replace window hardware, and ensure all your doors and windows function smoothly and securely.

Carpentry and Woodworking

Our carpentry skills include building shelves, installing crown molding, repairing baseboards, replacing damaged trim, building or repairing stairs, installing closet systems, constructing simple storage solutions, and various other woodworking projects. From decorative trim work to functional repairs, we handle carpentry tasks with precision.

Drywall Patching and Repair

Holes from doorknobs, nail pops, cracks, water damage, or any drywall damage gets patched, textured, and painted to blend seamlessly with existing walls. Our drywall repairs become invisible once complete.

Painting Projects

Interior painting for single rooms, accent walls, trim painting, cabinet refinishing, or touch-up work brings fresh looks to your Pontotoc home. We prepare surfaces properly, protect surrounding areas, and deliver clean, professional results.

Furniture Assembly

Those flat-pack furniture pieces with confusing instructions? We assemble them correctly and securely. From IKEA to Wayfair to local furniture stores, we've assembled countless pieces and know the common pitfalls to avoid.

Home Maintenance Tasks

Regular maintenance prevents larger problems. We clean gutters, caulk windows and doors, replace air filters, check weatherstripping, lubricate hinges, tighten loose screws throughout your home, and perform seasonal maintenance that keeps everything working properly.

Hanging and Mounting

Mounting TVs, hanging heavy mirrors, installing floating shelves, hanging artwork properly, mounting curtain rods, and similar projects require knowing which fasteners work for different wall types. We have the hardware and expertise to mount items securely.

Benefits of Hiring a General Handyman

Efficiency and Convenience

Instead of calling multiple specialists for different small jobs, one handyman appointment tackles your entire list. We arrive with a van stocked with common tools and materials, ready to address various repair types during a single visit. This consolidated approach saves you time coordinating multiple contractors and often costs less than hiring specialists for minor work.

No Minimum Job Requirements

Many specialized contractors have minimum charges or won't take small jobs. We accept projects of any size. Need one leaky faucet fixed? We'll do it. Have fifteen small tasks throughout your house? We'll handle them all. Every repair matters to us regardless of size.

Versatile Problem Solving

Our broad experience means we've encountered and solved countless different problems. This versatility helps us diagnose issues quickly and implement appropriate solutions. Sometimes problems that seem complex have simple fixes when you know what to look for.

Preventive Insights

While completing repairs, we often notice other potential issues and alert you before they become problems. This preventive awareness helps homeowners avoid emergency repairs and costly damage.

When to Call a Handyman vs. Specialized Contractor

Understanding when handyman services are appropriate versus when specialized contractors are necessary helps homeowners make informed decisions:

Handyman-Appropriate Projects

Repairs and improvements that don't require specialized licensing, building permits, or advanced technical expertise fit handyman services. Minor plumbing repairs, basic electrical work, carpentry projects, general maintenance, small to medium renovations, and repairs across multiple categories work well with handyman service.

When to Hire Specialists

Major plumbing installations, electrical panel work, HVAC system replacement, structural modifications, complex roofing, foundation repairs, and projects requiring permits typically need specialized licensed contractors. We provide honest guidance about which projects we're qualified for and when to bring in specialists.

2. Clear Estimate: For larger projects, we provide upfront estimates. For smaller repair lists, we often provide hourly rates with estimated time.
3. Scheduled Service: We arrive on time with necessary tools and common materials. If special materials are needed, we coordinate that in advance.
