A handyman who is
actually a carpenter.
A joiner is a woodworker who builds things that fit. That is the family name and it is also the trade. Joiner Joyner Home Services handles the whole punch list — doors, drywall, fixtures, fences — and the finish work most handymen turn down: built-ins, trim, cabinetry, custom carpentry.

One call for the list — and for the work that needs a carpenter
Nine service groups, all of them things we actually do. Most visits combine several of them, which is cheaper than booking them separately.
Carpentry & Built-Ins
A joiner is a carpenter who makes fitted woodwork. Built-ins, trim, cabinets, shelving and custom pieces measured and cut for your house, not bought off a shelf.
See details →Install & repairDoors & Windows
Front entry doors, interior doors, storm doors, windows, screens and garage doors — hung square, sealed, and actually latching.
See details →Patch, texture, finishDrywall & Painting
Holes, cracks, water damage and texture matching — then interior painting, so the repair disappears instead of announcing itself.
See details →Outside the houseFences, Decks & Outdoor
Fence and gate installation, fence repair, patio covers, awnings and outdoor carpentry — posts set properly so the line still looks straight in five years.
See details →Mount it, wire it, seal itFixture & Appliance Installation
Lighting, fans, vanities, mirrors, disposals, dishwashers, exhaust fans and wall A/C units — installed level, sealed, and connected properly.
See details →Floors and surfacesFlooring & Tile
Floor installation and replacement, tiling, transitions and trim — with the subfloor checked before anything goes down on top of it.
See details →The punch listHome Repairs & Maintenance
The running list on the fridge. Gutters, small plumbing and electrical fixes, exterior repairs and general maintenance — several items in one visit.
See details →Hung straight, into studsAssembly & Mounting
TV mounting, picture and mirror hanging, furniture assembly, fitness equipment and play equipment — found studs, level lines, no guessing.
See details →Seasonal · install and removalHoliday Lighting
Holiday lighting installation and removal — the ladder work, the clips, the timers, and taking it all down again in January.
See details →Most handymen stop where the carpentry starts
The difference shows up in the jobs people cannot get anyone to take.
Fitted, not bought
Built-ins, bar tops, half walls and trim measured and cut to your room. A piece that is out by an eighth of an inch reads as wrong from across the room, so it does not leave like that.
We take the fix-ups
A customer hired us to correct work another contractor had left behind. That is a normal week. Repairing something well is usually harder than building it new, and it is most of what we get called for.
The whole list in one visit
Ten small jobs booked as one appointment instead of ten. Under two hours, two to five hours, or a full day — you get the size before we start, not after.
Real jobs, photographed on site
Every photo on this site is a job Joiner Joyner did. Nothing here is stock.
Before
After
On a slope you either rack the panels or step them. That decision gets made before anything is dug — here the run follows the top of an existing stone retaining wall.
The job, and the review it earned
Two of these came with photos of the actual work.
I would give him more stars if I could. He was highly professional, did an excellent job, and offered very reasonable pricing. He installed an A/C wall unit on the side of our garage, and the quality of his work exceeded our expectations. We are extremely pleased with the results and plan to use his services again in the future.
James did an excellent job replacing our mailbox. Great communication and fair pricing.
James did an amazing job on our doorbell chime. He was friendly knowledgeable and made sure the job was done right, as we had bad experiences with previous handymen. We’ve already hired him for another job. Got customers for life.
James did a fantastic job on a difficult repair; he fixed my 130 year old brass bed which I wasn’t sure could be repaired. He also fixed a broken chair. He clearly knows what he’s doing and I will most definitely be using his services again in the future.
We hired James to fix an issue that we had caused by another contractor. He showed up with everything that he needed and had a great attention to detail. He fixed our issue and we will be happy to hire him in the future!
James Joiner, owner
My focus is quality. I refuse to cut corners — my staff and I take the time to do it right, making sure you’re 100% happy.

44 cities across 6 counties
Worked out of Snellville. Open your county to find your city — and if you are just outside the list, ask anyway.
Gwinnett County
Home county. Snellville, Grayson and Lawrenceville are the shortest drives we make, and a good share of the housing stock here is 1980s–2000s build with the trim, deck and fence work that comes with that age.
14 cities →DeKalb County
East DeKalb runs straight into Snellville along US 78. Older bungalows and brick ranches in the inner ring, newer subdivisions out toward Stonecrest — two very different repair lists.
12 cities →Rockdale County
Conyers is a twenty-minute run down GA 20. Plenty of ranch homes of an age where doors, floors and fences all come due around the same time.
1 city →Walton County
Loganville and Monroe sit just past the county line. More land per house out here, which means more fencing, more outbuildings and more exterior carpentry.
6 cities →Newton County
Covington and the towns around it. Older housing with real trim profiles in the historic sections — matching them is carpentry, not shopping.
5 cities →Barrow County
Winder, Auburn and the Bethlehem corridor. Fast-growing, largely newer construction, and a lot of builder-grade finishes that people upgrade a room at a time.
