Home Services Shop Celebrates its 8^th Anniversary by Hiring Three New Employees

For Immediate Release.  While this might not be the time for a major construction project, homeowners are still investing in their homes by keeping up with their maintenance, repairs and doing small projects. Consequently, homeowners are asking for makeovers without the construction and finding there is great satisfaction in getting a lot of small jobs around the house done.

Home Services Shop is a professional handyman service serving Westchester County, NY, which opened in 2001 to be a customer service focused, one stop shop for all the small jobs around the house.  Since opening they have performed over 25,000 jobs with over 4,000 customers.

Vice President, Kurt McKinney says, “People are at home more and want to enjoy where they are living.  They realize that their home is an investment they have some control over by simply maintaining it.  Its also the one investment they enjoy the most, so why not keep it in order.”

He goes on to say, “the top reasons people fall behind on the usual small jobs around the house is they don’t have the time, feel they have to call multiple trade people for different tasks, and/or don’t know who they can call that they feel comfortable working in and around their home.”  This reality can be overwhelming and often homes do not get updated until a major construction project.

Homeowners throughout WestchesterCounty have discovered Home ServicesShop to be the reliable service company they need to stay on top of all the small jobs around the house.  Basic maintenance including caulking, grouting, power washing, and window washing; repairs such as replacing rotted wood, adjusting doors and windows, and faucet leaks; and small projects like painting a room, installing crown molding, or changing interior hollow core to solid wood doors can greatly enhance the look of the home for relatively little expense.

McKinney says the phone has really been ringing, leading to an increase in staff.  In fact the quality of applicants has never been greater and accordingly we have the most talented team of technicians working that we have ever had.  Obviously this speaks to the state of the economy, but carpenters, trades’ people and former contractors see the benefit of working at a company where they can do a variety of jobs in one day and where there is steady work.  All employees are thoroughly background checked, and are hired as much for their customer service skill as their technical skills.

Home Services Shop is licensed, bonded and insured.  It also has a “Stay at HomeServices” Division run by Physical Therapist and CAPS certified, Herb Doerr focused on evaluation and home modification services for homeowners with specific age, injury, or disease related needs.
