Handyman tips website was created by John Barnes from Phoenix, Arizona, in February 2014. John wanted to share with the public his experience in home improvement as a contractor and avid woodworker. John noticed that there aren’t many expert advice online and he wanted to help the public to get true expert tips and estimates. What started as a hobby soon became a full time job as Handyman tips website became very popular because of the quality of tips it provides. After a few years John has introduced a couple of new content creators into Handyman tips team but he is still the main content creator on Handyman tips website.
