What I am all about

My name is Benjamin Finaske, owner and operator of Big Ben Handyman, LLC. I’m a solo builder serving homeowners in Transylvania County, based right here in Brevard, North Carolina. When you hire me, you’re working directly with the person doing the work—no subcontractor runaround, no shortcuts, and no guesswork.

I was born in Germany in 1984 and moved to the United States in 1993. I began working in construction in 2005 and founded my own company in 2012. In 2022, I proudly relocated Big Ben Handyman to Brevard, where I continue to focus on quality craftsmanship, honest communication, and projects done the right way. I pull permits when required—electrical, plumbing, or any other trade—so your project is safe, legal, and built to code.

My primary focus is bathroom remodeling, from demolition to the final details, but I also take on smaller handyman projects between larger jobs and on weekends. My services include drywall repair and patching, trim work, doors and windows, framing, tile preparation and installation, and a wide range of general home repairs and improvements.

I take pride in clean work, clear timelines, and treating every home with respect—as if it were my own. Whether you’re planning a full bathroom remodel or need help with a smaller project, I bring the same level of care, experience, and attention to detail to every job.
