Need something done that you don’t see listed?  Contact Us and we can let you know if we can help you.
If we aren’t able, we might have a company or individual we can refer you to.

How we charge:

  • Jobs are at our $30 an hour rate plus a minimum fuel charge. We have a minimum $45 charge for any jobs less than 90 minutes. We no longer provide free estimates. The clock starts from the time we leave our drive in Leo to 10 minutes after we submit the invoice to you for payment. 
  • There is a flat trip charge (includes fuel) of $25 for any jobs in the west, southwest or southeast parts of Allen County. If you live outside of Allen County, please contact us for a trip charge quote as rates are higher.
  • Materials can either be provided by us or by you, the customer.  If you require us to pick up materials, a down payment in advance via check or cash will be required. There is a minimum fuel charge per trip for us to provide any materials from local stores.
  • Our work day typically starts between 8:00 and 8:30am and ends no later than 5:00pm. We work Monday-Friday only. 
  • If you are a new customer, we will require you to be home at the time we arrive on the first day to fill out paperwork. You MUST be home at the time the work is completed so we can be paid or you need to make arrangements for someone to be there to pay us.
  • We DO NOT accept payment installments nor credit cards. Payment is expected to be paid in full at the end of the time period we originally scheduled you for.
  • Any checks must be made payable to Gary Queckboerner.  Any checks with insufficient funds will be billed to you for the fees incurred on our part (both the work and the fees will then have to be paid immediately in full with cash only) and may require us to deny you any future work.

Home Repair“Gary did some incredible work for us when we lived in Fort Wayne. He took down a chimney, repaired a brick wall, installed gutters, stair-rails, and finished some drywall on our kitchen ceiling. We offered him lunch one time, but he refused to take a break…never seen someone work so hard, well-deserving of the reasonable amount we’d paid him. My only complaint is that he’s not here in Indianapolis!”
