Ryan is my son. At 25 years old, he is very good at all handyman tasks. Ryan has learned a lot from me starting at a very young age. He is proficient at plumbing, electrical, sheet rock, masonry repairs and any other challenge that arises. Ryan's primary strength is in the electrical area. He handles most of the requests we get for electrical work at Tool Time. Ryan has a lot of experience installing ceiling fans, exhaust fans, whole house fans, attic fans, recessed lighting, chandeliers and other light fixtures. One of the key requirements of a good handyman is problem solving and Ryan is an excellent problem solver. You can count on Ryan to do a quality job and to get the job done quickly!
