Notice

Tuxedo Home Maintenance, LLC does not have the legal right of being called a Painter, Electrician, Plumber, General Contractor, etc. In South Carolina, these terms come with legal connotations and because each has their own licensing and insurance requirements, we do not claim to be any of the above. This does not mean we don't have the knowledge or experience to do any of the above, it just means those are state-protected trades.

Furthermore, our state dictates the Handyman can only offer a fraction of the expansive offerings that come with the generic "handyman" label. Inasmuch, we are limited by state law to the size and categories of projects that we can accept.
