Who is My Handy Dad?
My Handy Dad is an owner-operated handyman service built on experience, craftsmanship, and good old-fashioned reliability. We provide outstanding service for homeowners throughout Southwest Washington, from Packwood to Raymond, and from Olympia to Longview, including Centralia and Chehalis. With over 30 years in the construction industry—more than 20 of those years right here in Southwest Washington—we help our friends and neighbors get their honey-do lists caught up and done right. Our background includes professional painting, drywall repair, paint touch-ups, framing, and finish carpentry, along with hands-on experience in custom home construction where attention to detail truly matters. We’re also experienced in furniture-grade fine woodworking as well as small storage building construction, thanks to years spent in the storage building industry. When you call My Handy Dad, you’re working directly with a skilled tradesman who treats your home like his own—careful work, clear communication, and results you can feel good about.
About Me
Hi, I'm Mark. I’m a husband, dad of five, and the kind of guy who actually enjoys fixing things and crossing items off a Honey-Do list (yes, even the ones that have been there for a while). I’ve been married to my beautiful wife for 32 years, and we’ve made the Pacific NorthWest home ever since—raising our family, working hard, and learning that hard work still matters.
My approach to handyman work is simple: show up on time, respect your home, and complete every job with care and detailed craftsmanship. These values were shaped by how I was raised and the principles that guide my life, emphasizing honesty, integrity, and service to others. I believe this approach creates a positive experience for every customer. While my Christian faith is very personal, I’m always happy to have a respectful conversation with those who share an interest.
When I’m not helping homeowners with repairs, painting, or small projects, you’ll usually find me reading up on history, hiking local trails, working in the garden, or tackling another homestead project—sometimes with help, sometimes with “supervision.” Family time matters to me, and I bring that same care and attention to every home I work in.
