We aren’t a mega shop with locations in 100 cities. We’re a local company that only hires locally. Founding Chicago Handy is a personal dream I have aspired to achieve for nearly a decade. To make it here, I had to study, improve, and master my craft before I could establish myself in Chicago. We’ve been in business for almost 10 years now. I am a hard-working tradesman originally from Suwalki, Poland. I started my handyman career early, learning the basics working at my uncle’s development company. He taught me everything from how to read a tape measure to professionally painting, installing drywall and doing kitchen and bathroom remodeling. I picked up skills from him passed down through several generations. Using that foundation, I have continued to develop my skills by using more modern techniques, familiarizing myself with new materials, and using more advanced tools.
