Merv and Chris are more than builders—they are men whose lives are anchored in family. Merv’s quiet act of tucking his daughter’s baby kitten into his tool belt while she played is a snapshot of his heart: strong enough to carry the weight of his work, yet gentle enough to protect what his child loves most. Chris, with his beautiful family of seven, lives the same way—balancing the demands of building with the deeper calling of fatherhood.

Together, they remind us that true craftsmanship isn’t measured only in beams and bricks, but in the foundations of love, trust, and devotion they lay within their homes. The heart behind these men is for their families, and that is the legacy they continue to build every day.

“Labor Day isn’t just a date on the calendar—it’s a tribute to the hands that build, repair, and restore. At Odd Man Out Handyman, we believe in the kind of work that speaks for itself: the quiet dedication behind a well-hung door, the pride in a fence that stands straight through every season, the trust earned one project at a time. This day reminds us that real labor isn’t flashy—it’s honest, enduring, and deeply human. And in every job we take on, we carry that spirit forward.”
