Finding a Home Improvement Pro shouldn't come with a cost. EFynch is your community.




Information below is regarding EFynch, a Baltimore Handyman and Homeowner Community Website. "Home Improvement to the People!"

Baltimore, MD: Over the next few months, we are going to begin implementing EFynch 2.0. The idea is simple and based on our principal that finding someone in your own neighborhood shouldn't come with a price tag. Like it or not, other sites charge up to 40% to use, thus increasing the costs that our local handymen have to pay just to help a neighbor. This fee is simply wrong.

With the increase of data privacy concerns and the expansion of block-chain style reviews and verification, EFynch is going to be making some tremendous strides and we are thrilled that you are a part of the change that is coming from within.

One of the first refinements has already been launched. When posting a project, you can choose a category and categorize the job by Trade or select Fynchnest (which is licensed, criminal background checked contractors only).  When you select any of the categories (except Fynchnest), you do not pay EFynch a single penny, neither does the contractor.  We are thrilled to have helped connect and get work done. Introductions are not a business model; some might even call it a prerequisite. 

Now, in full transparency, when a Pro is listed in Fynchnest, that pro has paid to be a part of that system. The $35 annual fee goes towards the background check, license and ID verification- because we want to make sure the person applying is the person they claim to be. If you use EFynch Escrow (link), they have agreed to pay EFynch $10 or 5% (whichever is greater) on each project. This helps keep the site grow and to build new features (btw- no one here collects a salary).

Our goal is to be a good neighbor and help you take care of any home improvement challenge. We will never charge for the basics. Our business model is to provide features that add enough value that you will gladly (and freely) choose to use and pay for.  But charge $75 for a neighbors phone number? Not in our system!

The Big Fuzzy Bumble Bee- What are they? Do they Hurt? How to Kill them.

 EFynch is a handyman and homeowner community board based in Baltimore, Maryland. We provide advice, guidance, and help facilitate communications so, as a homeowner, you can manage any project like a pro! (Baltimore, MD ) Every spring my home is flooded with big, bumbling, furry, clumsy bees. It literally looks like the early stages of some biblical catastrophe. When I first saw them, I didn't know what to do. They'd swarm, swoop, dive, and worst of all- they were living behind my gutters and in my deck digging holes in the wood! I immediately turned to social media where, just as expected, I received a host of conflicting information in which each respondent was more sure than the previous one. So, I rolled up my sleeves, put on my reading glasses and after intense research I compiled the information below and I hope this helps. Grab your tennis rackets and a can of WD-40, because we're in for a wild safari! 1. What are they? They are commonly known as wood

Shovel your driveway for convenience. Shovel the sidewalk or be FINED!

By: Teris Pantazes of EFynch.com Timonium, MD: After every snowstorm you will ultimately hear the scrape of distant shovels and snowblowers. These are your good neighbors who are out clearing their driveways in order to avoid busting their Phisteris' or just taking a terrible slip.  But I have to tell you, it doesn't end there. As a dog owner (actually, 2 mutts in my household!), I take them out for an stroll every evening. I constantly encounter a lack of sidewalk clearing and because I don't want to be a nosy neighbor, I politely trudge through the snow risking my own demise. Therein lies a problem because without resolution, you are opening yourself to fines and even worse, HOMEOWNER LIABILITY. I live in Baltimore County. But, I have also managed properties in Prince George's, Montgomery, Anne Arundel, Baltimore City, and Washington D.C.  I can tell you without any hesitation of doubt that within each and these jurisdictions- THE SIDEWALK IS THE HOMEOWNERS

Hire a Handyman- Risk Identity Theft- The Pay Per Lead Industry you don't know exists

Image
Baltimore, MD: You've seen the ads on TV. By using that service the trusted home repair advisor who has made the "list" is only a click away. Your home improvement/ handyman fears are now diminished and the smiling (sometimes made up) personality is assuring your comfort. However, there is a glaring problem and it has to do with profits and the security of your personal information.  *The "Before We Start Disclaimer": Not every online home improvement company does what I am about to describe but, it is prevailant. It generates fast and easy income and even us at EFynch had once been heavily advised to participate. But in truth, it is simply sleazy (IMO)- we are not participating in this practice. Pay Per Lead is the horrible and deceptive practice that even the well-known brands in home improvement use. They collect your information (often without your knowledge) and then sell it to local contractors. Sometimes for a hefty fee and without your kno
