What You'll Get
A macaroni-decorated tool belt and a working knowledge of the Law of Lefty-Loosey can only go so far toward home improvement. Today's Groupon lends a helping hand: for $296, you get a gutter cleaning, moss removal, and outside house inspection from Mr. Handyman of Northwest Portland (a $595 value), serving homes in the Portland metropolitan area.
Mr. Handyman of Northwest Portland's uniformed technicians earn the trust of homeowners with punctual arrival, skilled service, and a guarantee for all work. An important part of spring maintenance rituals, the gutter cleaning clears debris from a home's rain re-routers, freeing up liquid-traffic flow like an angioplasty. Slothful moss gets its comeuppance as spore warriors spray and scrub away the rooftop freeloader. Depending on the condition of customers' house-hats, Mr. Handyman might charge an additional fee for the use of extra moss-removal product ($10–$30). Appointments typically last an hour and conclude with the company's eagle-eyed representatives examining each house's exterior, checking for cracks, rot, and satirical graffiti.
