Services
What Aaron Can Handle
Twelve service lines under one name — so the punch list, the repair, and the remodel all go to the same trusted person.
Interior & Exterior Painting
Clean lines, proper prep, and paint that actually lasts through East Texas summers. Interior rooms or full exterior repaints.
Water Heater Installation & Replacement
Swap a failing tank before it floods the garage. Aaron handles removal, install, and haul-off in a single visit.
Window & Door Installation
New windows, exterior doors, storm doors, and interior swaps installed square, sealed, and weather-tight.
Tile Backsplash Installation
Subway, mosaic, or large-format tile installed level with tight, even grout lines. The fastest upgrade in any kitchen.
Wall Siding Repair & Installation
Rotted boards, storm damage, and tired exteriors repaired or replaced so the house is protected and looks sharp again.
Fixture Repairs & Replacement
Faucets, sinks, toilets, ceiling fans, light fixtures, and hardware swapped out right the first time.
Flooring Installation & Repair
LVP, laminate, tile, and hardwood installed flat and tight — plus repairs to damaged planks and squeaky subfloors.
Bathroom Remodels
From a refresh to a full gut — tile, vanity, tub-to-shower conversions, and fixtures handled by one person.
Kitchen Remodels
Cabinets, counters, backsplash, lighting, and flooring coordinated into one project with one craftsman running it.
Fences & Porches
New fence builds, storm repairs, and porch construction or rebuilds designed to hold up to Texas weather.
General Handyman Services
The running punch list every home builds up. Give Aaron the whole list and knock it out in one scheduled visit.
Why HandyCofer
The difference is who's holding the tools.
One Call Does It All
Aaron works across dozens of trades — drywall, tile, paint, flooring, carpentry, fixtures. Instead of coordinating five contractors and five schedules for one remodel, you hand the whole list to one person who owns the outcome.
Quality You Can See
Straight cut lines, tight grout joints, level cabinets, and a job site swept clean every evening. Aaron doesn't cut corners where they'd be hidden, because the hidden work is what decides whether a job lasts.
Genuinely Local
HandyCofer isn't a national franchise routing your call to a dispatch center. Aaron lives in Athens, works across East Texas, and runs into his customers at the grocery store. That's a strong reason to do it right.
Aaron's Schedule Fills Up Fast
He books up because he's the one neighbors recommend. Early fall is the best window to tackle indoor projects before the holidays and winter weather arrive — get your estimate on the calendar while there are still slots.

HandyCofer is based in Athens, Texas and serves homeowners within about 100 miles — including Tyler, Palestine, Corsicana, Canton, Terrell, Gun Barrel City, Mabank, Malakoff, Trinidad, Jacksonville, Rusk, Henderson, Fairfield, Crockett, and the surrounding communities. If you're not sure whether you're inside the radius, just ask.
Do you offer free estimates?

How do I schedule?
Enter your email anywhere on this site and you'll get a direct link to Aaron's calendar, where you can pick an estimate window that fits your schedule. Prefer the phone? Call and leave a message with your name, town, and the project.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — HandyCofer carries liability insurance, and licensed trades are used where the work legally requires it. Documentation is available on request before any work starts.
What types of projects do you take on?
Everything from a half-day punch list to a full kitchen or bathroom remodel: drywall, paint, flooring, tile, siding, fences, porches, doors, windows, water heaters, and fixture work. If it's part of maintaining, repairing, or upgrading a home, it's likely on the list.
How long does a typical project take?
Small repairs and punch lists usually take a half day to a full day. Painting a few rooms, a backsplash, or a fence section runs two to four days. Bathroom remodels typically take one to two weeks, and kitchens two to four weeks depending on materials. You'll get a realistic timeline in writing with your estimate.
