Good work starts with a real person.

EXPERIENCE YOU CAN TALK TO

Meet Tommy.

Tommy has proudly spent 45 years in home remodeling and the building trades. That is the experience behind Tommy’s Top-Notch Handyman Services LLC in Lafayette, Indiana. His published specialties include gutters, roofing, siding, fascia and soffits—repairing, cleaning and installing the parts of a home that face the weather.

In his own introduction, he describes himself as “61 years young” and still swinging hammers alongside younger tradespeople. The humor is part of his personality, but so is the pride in continuing to do useful work. His story is about staying active, sharing hard-earned experience and helping neighbors with the things their homes need.

A small beginning. Growing neighbor connections.

In a September business update, Tommy explained that he started out part time to keep busy, stay physically active and help people nearby. As interest grew, he thanked neighbors for the business, friendships and support that were keeping him on his toes. That is the spirit this business brings to a project: a real person behind the phone number, with a practical reason to care about the work.

He has also used his page to take responsibility when messages were missed during an account change. It is a small but useful glimpse of how he speaks to people—directly, without pretending nothing happened. For the most direct route, call or text (765) 977-4268.

Ask questions. Know the plan.

Tommy advertises free estimates, references on request and guaranteed workmanship. Those are good starting points for a useful conversation. Ask about work similar to yours, what the quote includes, how materials will be selected and what the workmanship guarantee covers for the specific job.

An overflowing gutter, damaged siding and worn fascia can be connected. Describe everything you have noticed rather than choosing a repair before the cause is understood. For indoor projects, bring the complete list and identify what matters most. The goal is a sensible scope that fits the property and your priorities.

Experience, with a neighborly outlook.

Not every post is a sales pitch. Tommy has also stopped simply to wish neighbors a great day. That blend of trade experience, gratitude and an ordinary working-person voice is what makes his business personal. Start with your city and a few photos, then talk through the next step together.

Experience, services and business background are based on Tommy’s public Nextdoor introduction and posts reviewed October 2026.
