Why Did We Start Odd Jobs?
A Brief History
Odd Jobs was officially started in 2021 as a separate division from Odd Fellows Contracting due to a large volume of phone calls to Odd Fellows Contracting requesting work that was not necessarily a good fit for Odd Fellows Contracting design-build remodeling.
At the time we didn't have a great option to be able to recommend any other handyman contractors in the area and typically just referred homeowners to the local Home Builders Association.
After a few thousand times saying, "Sorry, that is not a project that we do here.", we realized that this market had a real need for a quality small home repair and services work. All of the request that came in were things that we were capable of doing, we have expert carpenters, window installers, flooring installers, drywallers, etc. We were just missing the avenue to be able to service that smaller project home improvement need.
We put our heads together and realized the best way to get started was to just do it. We were blessed to already have the phone ringing because of the trust that the community already had in our outstanding reputation. We began going on appointments and providing estimates for work. As situations occurred, we determined the best course of action to ensure we were offering the best value in handyman work in the Greater Lansing area.
As time progressed and we made improvement to our system, we began hiring specifically for the type of work that Odd Jobs completes. For a list of services, you can visit our SERVICES page. Odd Jobs specializes in home improvement and handyman work. As we grow, we look forward to serving even more homes that want high quality of work with excellent communication.
