Jason Calicott

Co-Owner & Operator

Jay has spent nearly 30 years in the trades — starting as a certified HVAC/R technician and journeyman electrician before expanding into full-scale construction, custom home building, and renovation work. Over the course of his career he worked his way up to project manager and estimator, developing the kind of broad, hands-on expertise that most contractors simply don't have. When his employer closed the doors, Jay decided it was time to build something of his own — and JAY-LABOR Handy Services was born. Today he brings that same depth of knowledge and straight-talking work ethic to every job, whether it's a quick repair or a full kitchen or bathroom renovation. Licensed, insured, OSHA certified, and EPA universal certified — when Jay shows up, the job gets done right.
