Honest handyman
work in Baytown

Q: How much does it cost?

Most common jobs have a set price. Anything else is an $89 service call (includes the first hour) and $65/hr after. You get the price before I start.

Q: Didn't you used to do this for free?

I did. That's how I got started and earned my first photos and word-of-mouth. Timmy's is a full business now. If I did a free job for you before, your next one is 20% off as a thank-you.

Q: Do you charge for materials?

Materials are billed at cost with the receipt, no markup. If you already have the parts, even better.

Text me a photo and get your price, usually the same day. You pay only after you've looked the work over. No surprise invoices, no upsells — just the job done right.

it's this easy

Three steps

How this works

Tell me what's broken

Text me a photo and your zip code. I'll tell you straight away whether it's something I take on.

Get a real price

An exact price before I start — not a range, not "we'll see." It only changes if you add to the job and say OK.

I show up and fix it

A real arrival window, not "sometime Tuesday." You look it over, then you pay. Card or cash.

Why Timmy's

Built one job at a time

I've spent fifteen years working with my hands, most of it on jobs where getting it wrong isn't an option. I started Timmy's by doing work around Baytown for free to earn my first photos and word-of-mouth — and that's what built this.

Now it's a real business with real prices. Same standard as before: fair rates, straight talk, and I don't leave until it's right.

My word

The promise

On time

I show up when I said I would. If I'm running late, you hear it from me first.

Price first

You know the price before I pick up a tool. No surprise add-ons.

Straight talk

If a job needs a licensed electrician or plumber, I'll say so instead of winging it on your house.

Done right

You look it over before I pack up. If something I did fails within 30 days, I come back and fix it free.

Young Matthew with his grandfather Timmy — Me & Timmy — the man this is named after

Who you're letting in your house

I'm Matthew.

I live here in Baytown, and I named this after my grandfather.

Timmy raised me. Everything I know about fixing things I learned standing next to him — mostly by doing it twice, because he'd hand it back to me if it wasn't right the first time.

I've spent fifteen years since in the trades, crane operator by certification, on jobs where getting it wrong isn't an option. Same rule, bigger equipment. This is me building something of my own, under his name.
