Hazelwood Handyman was founded in 1996 by Tim Spang. Tim started his first business, Spang Builders Inc., immediately out of high school. He grew it into a successful and highly respected, fine-home building and remodeling company. However, as Spang Builders grew, many former and prospective customers commented that it must be too busy to accommodate their small repairs or remodels. In response to that sentiment, Tim decided to open another company that focused on home repairs and maintenance as well as smaller additions and remodels. Thus, Hazelwood Handyman was born.
