About Michael Overton
I am a licensed contractor with over three decades experience in construction. I am committed to helping homeowners and commercial tenants maintain and repair their homes and buildings. Much more than a handyman, I have the expertise and knowledge to make sure repairs are done professional and correctly.
History
Michael Overton — A licensed contractor since 1992, I have had the good fortune to be involved in many facets of the construction industry. I began my construction career in 1985 working for a general contractor who specialized in commercial construction and tenant improvement projects.
Our work regularly included masonry and foundation construction, framing, electrical, and plumbing. After the 1994 earthquake, we became heavily involved in seismic retrofitting of commercial and older apartment buildings, providing unreinforced masonry structures with new foundations and internal structural reinforcement.
Following that experience, I moved into home building, working alongside superintendents and project managers as a customer service representative. In this role, I worked directly with new homeowners to help them understand their homes and how to properly maintain them. I also collaborated closely with subcontractors to address and repair any defects or warranty-related items.
