Anyone know of a handyman who would build two dressers for me in brooklyn?

Not sure if this is the right place thread for a handyman ?

Anyone in NJ with knowledge about st8 form? I'm. Redoing kitchen in house I'm buying and first kitchen guy specifically included sales tax, but now I'm seeing that i should not be charged tax. Plan is to gut the kitchen except for dishwasher and stove (moving stove to basement for pesach/other as there is already a wetbar there) to and get all new appliances and cabinets

I plan on redoing a kitchen, new countertops, changing sink locations etc. It's not enough work to hire a contractor. Is there a one-stop shop for this? Do I choose hardware first and then go to a counter place? I also will need to do plumbing. Any general advice would be appreciated.

many counter places will do the install as well. Plumping you can ask your local plumber that you trust.

You will need to know the sink size and amount of holes needed for the faucet when getting the counters.

the duct generally comes with a fastener ring. No need for tape.

Eh...there seems to be some kind of bridge between the duct to the outside and the dryer vent hose - so the fastener ring holds nicely to that bridge, but now the bridge is slipping out from the main duct.

Previously, there was regular duct tape holding it together, but that was old and really falling apart.
