"Don’t use the plumbing! Called to have Kohler toilet tank plunger repaired. Whole installation is $20. Labor is an hour at $80 so the price is $150, at most. No, they charged $450–BS! These guys are a scam. No prices and I told them to have the repair person call me before arriving. No call, no prices. And, then the repair person has the stones to tell me that everyone overcharges!! Let’s start with not using Beacon!!!"

I’m David, your trusted handyman in Annandale, VA. I came to this profession from a different angle than most. Prior to getting into handyman work, I spent fifteen years working in the engine rooms of cargo ships. Being in the middle of the ocean taught me to face problems head-on: I was an electrician, plumber, machinist, welder, and even an appliance repairman. If the right part was missing, I adapted—fixing what was at hand, crafting a new part, or finding an alternative solution. This drive to find solutions has not changed. While today’s world often leans towards a “throw out-and-replace” mindset, I have always gravitated towards mending and restoring. My commitment is simple: to deliver the best service possible. And if a task is beyond my scope of expertise or needs specialized knowledge, I will always be honest about it. In my opinion, it is better to steer you in the right direction than to lead you off course.
"He was great! He came last minute when we really needed someone as was nice!"

A properly installed ridge vent rarely leaks. Sections overlap along the roof’s peak and are secured with fasteners designed to form a watertight seal. When your roofer follows the manufacturer’s instructions and uses compatible materials, rainwater stays outside while warm, humid air escapes. Regular inspections after major storms add extra peace of mind and help your roof last longer.
Divide your attic’s square footage by 150 to find the minimum square footage of ventilation you need. Aim for a 50/50 split—half intake (soffit) and half exhaust (ridge or roof) vents—to keep air moving and moisture in check. A local roofer can confirm the calculation based on your climate and roof pitch.
Roof ventilation moves hot, moist air out of the attic, protecting rafters and decking from mold, rot, and premature wear. Good airflow also eases the load on your air-conditioning system, trimming energy bills and keeping living spaces more comfortable year-round. In short, it safeguards both your roof and your wallet.
A ridge vent should run along the main roof ridge, but doesn’t have to cover every intersecting ridge. What matters is creating a continuous channel at the highest point so warm air can escape evenly. Your roofer will measure the attic space, size the vent accordingly, and stop short of hips or valleys where leaks are more likely. This approach keeps the system efficient and the roof watertight.
