Dear Highland Parkers,
I want to highly recommend ROBERT HIGGS for any repair or restoration work that you need around your homes.  I learned about his services from two neighbors who had employed him previously and who I trust completely.  

I was not disappointed.  

The work was always done in a responsible, considerate and thorough manner.  Everyone involved was polite and trustworthy.  

The amount of time required for the work was reasonable, as were his charges.  I felt that I was charged fairly, and dealt with honestly.  Mr. Higgs gave me an itemized list of the costs of each of the repairs, and his prices were fair & reasonable.  .  

Here are some of the projects his team successfully completed at my house:

He fixed wood rot in a third-floor window frame and re-installed a hinged window there.

Hung a door.  

Hung a a very delicate and heavy mirror.  

Determined why our dining-room ceiling light did not work, and made it work.  

Installed two interior thresholds.  

Built & installed a screen in a transom window.  

Major job:  diagnosed and repaired wood rot in our back sun room; replaced part of the wooden floor; replaced and grouted ceramic tiles; fixed the outer door frame of the sun room and
installed the mechanism that slows down a door closing.    

Another Major job:  Repaired, lowered and reconfigured our back stairs so that rain flowed away from the sun room; installed a proper threshold to keep water from the sun room door.  

Dug out 15 feet of problematic sidewalk on the side of our house, poured a fresh walk that would resist water and downhill-moving earth.  All debris was removed.  

Cleared blockage of water in our second-floor gutters.  


I intend to hire Mr. Higgs for future repairs.  The future list is mounting.  So far:  replace a ceiling light/fan fixture; do plaster ceiling repairs...

I recommend Mr. Higgs’ services to you because of his excellent work, and because I think we should hire locally whenever we can.  

Thank you, Mr. Higgs.
