Handyman Services in Sterling Ridge (77382)
I live around the corner, not in a call center
I’m Adam Taylor — I don’t just work in The Woodlands, I actually live in Panther Creek, just minutes from Sterling Ridge. I work regularly in Carlton Woods and sometimes grab groceries from Walmart on the way home. When you hire me, you aren’t dealing with a franchise call center or a stranger dispatched from across town. You’re dealing directly with your neighbor — a licensed, insured professional who’s been taking care of homes in Sterling Ridge for years.
Sterling Ridge is one of The Woodlands’ most beautiful villages — home to the Gary Player Golf Course, Forestgate Park, and some of the most well-maintained homes in the area. These are homes people take pride in, and the work I do here reflects that. I show up on time, with my fully stocked Ultimate Handyman Trailer, ready to get to work.
Common Handyman Services in Sterling Ridge
Honey-Do Lists:
Ceiling fan needs balancing, door won’t latch, TV’s still in its box, curtains and pictures still waiting to go up — you’d be surprised how much I can knock out in an hour. Show me the list and let’s get through it.
Light Bulb Replacement:
Light bulb changing isn’t glamorous, but it’s one of those small jobs that piles up — especially with fixtures you can’t easily reach. I’ll swap them out no problem. And if you’ve been thinking about changing to LED, give me a call. I can help you with that too.
Smart Lock & Deadbolt Installation:
Hiding a spare key under the mat fools exactly nobody — least of all the people you’re trying to keep out. Keyless smart lock upgrades on front and garage entry doors are cleaner, more secure, and one less thing to lose at the bottom of your bag.
Curtain Rod & Blind Mounting:
Hanging curtains and blinds is one of my specialties. I use my self-leveling laser and the right anchors to get them straight and secure every time.
Cabinet Hardware Upgrades:
New handles or soft-close hinges make a bigger difference than you’d think — and it’s a quick job when you know what you’re doing.
Garbage Disposal Repair:
I’m out in Sterling Ridge all the time — and the garbage disposal problems there tend to follow a pattern. Truth is, I see these same issues all over The Woodlands, so I wrote this blog about it.
My Core Handyman Services in Sterling Ridge
TV Mounting & Installation
Bigger rooms need a properly mounted TV — not one sitting on a stand in the corner. I’ll get yours up on the wall, level, cables tucked, and looking like it belongs there.
Honey-do Lists
More house means more list. Hand it over — I’ll work through everything on it. Genuinely my favorite kind of job.
Picture, Art, and Curtain Hanging
More wall space means more opportunities to get it right — or wrong. I’ll get everything hung straight, anchored correctly, and exactly where you want it.
Furniture Assembly
Bigger rooms, more furniture, more boxes. IKEA, Wayfair, Pottery Barn — I’ll get everything put together so you can spend your Saturday doing literally anything else.

I keep every tool, gadget, and gizmo imaginable stocked and ready to go — so when I show up, I’m ready to work from minute one. I’ve seen it all — from doors that haven’t closed right since 2003 to IKEA instructions written in what I’m convinced is a dead language.

My Billing Structure (no surprises)
For my customers in The Woodlands and Shenandoah, my rate is $120 per hour, plus a one-time $50 service call fee that covers my travel, insurance, and my fully stocked Ultimate Handyman Trailer. So the first hour comes to $170 total, and after that I bill in 15-minute increments at my hourly rate — you only pay for the time I’m actually working.
If materials are needed, I stop at the store on the way, show you the receipt, and add the exact cost to your invoice. What I paid is what you pay. Not a penny more.
Before I show up, make a full list — you’ll be amazed how much I can knock out in an hour.
Frequently Asked Questions in Sterling Ridge
What handyman services do you offer in Sterling Ridge?
Just about everything on your honey-do list — furniture assembly, ceiling fan repair and replacement, picture and art hanging, custom closet shelving, curtain installation, garage storage solutions, TV mounting, and much more. I also work regularly in Carlton Woods, so I’m very familiar with the homes in this area. If you’re not sure whether I handle something, just text me. TDLR License #894 and #376398.
What kinds of jobs are most common in Sterling Ridge?
Furniture assembly, ceiling fan replacement, and picture and art hanging are at the top of the list. After that it’s custom closet shelving, curtain installation, TV mounting, and honey-do lists. Sterling Ridge homes also tend to have high ceilings and hard-to-reach fixtures — I carry the right equipment on my Ultimate Handyman Trailer to handle those too.
Do you assemble furniture from brands like IKEA or Wayfair?
Absolutely. I’ve put together everything from Amazon office desks to full patio sets, so you don’t have to spend your weekend deciphering IKEA language. Instead, spend it watching the TV I just hung on your back porch.
Can I give you a list of things to fix instead of just one repair?
Absolutely. Most of my customers have a running list of little things that pile up — a sticking door here, a wobbly fan there, a few things to hang. The more you can batch together, the more efficient it is for both of us.
What is your hourly rate and how does billing work?
For customers in The Woodlands and Shenandoah, my rate is $120 per hour, plus a one-time $50 service call fee that covers my travel, insurance, and my fully stocked Ultimate Handyman Trailer. So the first hour comes to $170 total, and after that I bill in 15-minute increments at my hourly rate — you only pay for the time I’m actually working.
Do you charge a markup on materials or parts?
If materials are needed, I stop at the store on the way, show you the receipt, and add the exact cost to your invoice. What I paid is what you pay. Not a penny more.
Do you have a minimum charge for very small, single tasks?
Yes. My rate is $120 per hour, plus a one-time $50 service call fee — that puts the minimum at $170 for the first hour. Because of this, I always encourage my customers to make a list before I arrive. You’d be amazed how much I can knock out in an hour. See everything I do here.
How do I schedule service?
It’s best to text me directly at 281-827-2614. During regular business hours I’m usually working in someone’s home. And when I’m on their clock, I want to be respectful of their time. And after business hours, I’m at home with my family. So unless you happen to call me when I’m between jobs, I typically don’t pick up my phone.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. I hold TDLR Licenses #894 and #376398, and I carry $1M/$2M general liability insurance — so you’re covered no matter the job.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. I only take jobs that I’m qualified for and have a lot of experience with, so I rarely get callbacks — but if something I did caused a problem, I come back fast and make it right. In my 10 years of doing this, I’ve only had to make one insurance claim.
Can you provide references?
Absolutely, I’d be happy to put you in contact with any of my customers (subject to their approval first of course). But you can also just google “Adam Taylor the Handyman” and read my reviews. I have over 100 5-star reviews and every one of them came from a neighbor just like you.
