James - Nextdoor Handyman

Meet James

I'm James, born and raised right here in the Shenandoah Valley. I started Nextdoor Handyman in 2021, and today my team and I handle everything from drywall and electrical to full renovations across the Charlottesville area.

Most handymen learn on the job. I showed up with 15 years of technical experience before I ever picked up my first work order.

I've diagnosed failing systems on Virginia's highways for VDOT, troubleshot equipment in hundreds of homes as a Comcast technician, and worked as a construction manager for years. I've been taking things apart and fixing them since I was eight years old.

That background means something simple: we figure out what's actually wrong, tell you exactly what it'll take to fix it, and get it done right the first time.

No guesswork. No repeat visits. No surprises on the bill.

When you call Nextdoor Handyman, you're getting a neighbor who shows up when he says he will and treats your house like his own.
