Meet Your Neighbors: Donn & Melissa Schmidt

Bayview Handyman started with a dream of finding a career built on doing what we love. Owner Donn S. graduated from UW-Stout's renowned construction program and spent 15 years in the corporate world before returning to his true passion — working with his hands and helping homeowners.

We specialize in older homes — 100+ year old homes, even historic properties — recognizing where we can best serve you. Those beautiful Bay View bungalows, Victorians, and craftsman homes deserve someone who understands their quirks.

Located right here in Bay View, serving the neighborhood we love — from the shores of Lake Michigan to the heart of Kinnickinnic Ave. We're honored to be a Nextdoor Gold Cup winner for 2019 and 2020, awarded 'Best in Plumbing' and 'Best of 2 Neighborhoods.' Give us a try and let the work speak for itself.
