Meet Glen,

your go-to Handyman, Minneapolis

My story starts back on my family’s farm in Iowa, where I first learned the ropes of building and fixing things with my dad who was a skilled builder. Those early lessons were more than just  construction; they were about the value of hard work and doing things right.

Over the years, I’ve built my skill sets, from overseeing projects at a roofing company to fixing farm equipment and even crunching numbers for a nonprofit as an accountant. At the end of the day, what I’ve always strived to do is to look out for my customer. This is something I learned while making sure homeowners didn’t have to hassle with insurance claims at the roofing company.

After years as an employee, I  wanted more than the regular 9-to-5. I desired the freedom to be there for my family’s big moments which was tricky when I didn’t control my schedule. So, I took everything I knew and poured it into Minneapolis Handyman. It’s not just a business; it’s about bringing lifelong passion for fixing things into your home.

Speaking of home,  my home is full of life with my wife, Tarah, who’s a nurse practitioner, two teenagers, and two pre-teens. I’m enjoying the small respite from my roll of chauffeur when my oldest got their driver’s license – a small win for any parent!

Minneapolis Homeowner
Glen has done several jobs for me. He replaced my roof in Iowa on the farm and did an amazing job. We hired him to remodel our current home. He did our bathroom, total kitchen, including cabinets, flooring for all levels of the home! He's very fast and efficient. His eye for detail is far above any handyman I've worked with. He painted out brick fireplace, and was the one to recommend leaving the group and only doing the brick. He's the best and I won't use anyone else!
