Handyman & Home Repair in Lyme, NH

Lyme Common, Lyme Center, Post Pond and the farms and hill roads off Route 10.

Lyme is farms, old houses and hill roads, with the common at its center and the Skiway up in Lyme Center. It is north of Hanover on Route 10, and it is the kind of town where a lot of the housing predates anything resembling a building code.

I take work there regularly, usually a half day or more at a time so the drive earns its keep.

What I Get Called For in Lyme

  • Farmhouse carpentry — sills, jambs, doors, trim, porch framing
  • Barn, shed and outbuilding repairs
  • Long gravel driveway grading and culvert clearing
  • Brush clearing and reclaiming field edges
  • Remodels and additions on older farmhouses
  • Chainsaw, mower and generator service

Lyme Houses and Property

Old farmhouses and barns are the heart of the work here. They move, they settle, and the repairs they need are carpentry in the true sense — sills, door jambs that have not been square since the Eisenhower administration, porch framing, and sheds and outbuildings that need saving before another winter.

Property maintenance is the other half. Long driveways, field edges growing in, drainage that was set up for a farm and has not been touched since.

Straight Talk About Travel

I am based in Canaan and Lyme is inside the roughly 30-mile radius I work. That means no games about minimum job sizes — but it also means the honest advice is to save up the small things. A list of five items handled in one visit costs you less than five separate trips, and it is a better use of both of our days.
