​Some things people say.

-"Hope you and your family had a great Christmas and New Year! I want to let you know that we are really, really happy with the way the bathroom turned out, most notably the shower stall which is simply perfect. Maybe it is odd to be so enthusiastic about a bathroom, but when something that is a necessary part of life works so well I think that it can have some kind of over large - and maybe even spiritual - impact. Thanks again!!!"

-"-I am responding to support John Meshna's post of Handyman Plus on Front Porch Forum. I would add handyman extraordinaire. I had him do some work on my old mobile home and I couldn't believe what he was able to do. He built a new exterior door frame and more. He far exceeded my expectations. He was prompt, skilled and most important of all caring. If you need a handyman, I would highly recommend John Meshna."

-Dear John,
  I am writing this with tears running down my face. I drove in after a long week of work and couldn't believe my eyes. The heavy door was attached and there were no gaps. It hasn't closed in a long time. I truly mean that you have helped me have a reason to go on. Coming home is now a joy and not a chore.  I will never be able to thank you enough. Karen

-Hello John,
I drove into the driveway and couldn't believe my eyes. The door frame is so beautiful and the porch is amazing. Since my stroke and recent surgery I have been depressed. You have changed my life.

-Thanks for everything you’ve done for us this year - your companionship, reliability, thoroughness, and good spirit in working with us!!
Warmly,
Jody

- Many of you have watched my porch on Pleasant Street being reconstructed this summer. The work was done by John Meshna, Blue River Co. I consider him a master craftsman. The reconstruction was full of problems that I am not sure very many others could have solved. Many positive comments by passerby were made on his amazing work. Several called it a work of art.
I highly recommend him for inside or outside work.
