Boston Handywoman

Boston Handywoman takes the jobs that sit on a list for months: a shelf to mount, a wall to patch and paint, a flat-pack to assemble — and, by her own description, the half-done DIY project still waiting in the corner. Sarah Solomon is the registry holder of record behind the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration #208011, and the state register shows it active. The business is run solo and described as woman-owned, so one person quotes, schedules and carries out the job. The stated service area is Boston and the inner suburbs around it — Arlington, Belmont, Brookline, Cambridge, Medford, Needham, Newton, Somerville, Watertown, Waltham, Weston and Wellesley. This is the call for a punch list rather than a gut renovation: one person, small jobs, booked one at a time. Ask how a visit with several small items on it is priced, and confirm insurance before anyone works inside your home.
