Home Maintenance Enterprises Offers Plan for Those on a Budget

 

By: Nicholas D. D’Angelo

Managing Editor

A Niagara Falls native, Henry Walerowicz has come up with a plan that might be handy for readers.

He started Home Maintenance Enterprises about 15 years ago. His company does general repairs. High quality workmanship at great prices.

“We care to fix it right,” he said.

His crew has grown from three to 26 over the past decade. He has more than 2,000 customers.

His is, in addition to general contracting services, a handyman service.

“All I wanted to do with my company was to help people out and add a little happiness to their lives,” he said.

His plan is to provide a handymen service for people.  Where one phone call can solve all your house problems. Prompt service you can depend on. Quality service, fair pricing.

“People always complain about not being able to find an honest, competent handyman or construction guy to do small jobs” Henry said. “My idea was to have a handyman on call in a sense. It can take the pressure off people. From the smallest job to the biggest – from cutting grass to putting a new roof on – you can call us for anything.  All your large and small repair and maintenance needs fixed by a fair and honest handyman. On time done right.”

The professional alternative to doing it yourself.

Henry came up with a plan that came make this possible for most homeowners.

His is a monthly maintenance program where licensed and insured handymen come to your house and, depending on the plan, do two or three jobs per month – for a monthly fee of $90- $135.

Here’s a partial checklist of things they do as part of the monthly plan:

Paint a room

Replace a hot water tank,

Replace shower fixture

Replace a toilet

Replace toilet seat

Replace door.

Replace a sink.

Replace outlets.

Replace smoke detectors,

Fix a hole in the wall.

Reroute cable for TV.

Install a ceiling fan,

Install a window.

Unplug toilets.

Unplug sinks

Change a furnace filter

Hang curtains or blinds.

Fix a leaky pipe.

Change locks.

Clean gutters

Clean sewer,

Rake the yard

Fix a roof leak.  

They will even jump start your car or tow your car for up to 15 miles.

This is not to imply that Henry ‘s company can only do handyman type jobs. He is in demand for big jobs too.

A union pipefitter by trade, Henry long ago developed a passion for construction. He went into buying houses, fixing and selling them. Home Maintenance Enterprises was general contractor for the Rainforest Café in Downtown Niagara Falls.

Henry’s plumbing company, Apollo Plumbing, did all the plumbing for the new Oishei Children’s Hospital in Buffalo.

“I love doing things that others can’t,” he said.  He could figure out how to fix almost anything.

But he always loved the idea of helping people out in their homes.

Home Maintenance Enterprises is fully licensed and insured.

“We have a master plumber, a master electrician, expert roofers, siding specialists, and skilled concrete people,” Henry said. “If its broken, if its cracked, if its rotted, we can fix it.”

Of course people do not have to be on the monthly program to call Home Maintenance Enterprises.  They get the job done wherever, however, no matter how big or small.

They are reliable and affordable. They fix them all.  And one call can solve all! Check it out for yourself. Call your right hand handyman – Home Maintenance Enterprises – at 716-310-9882.

Craig Bucki Stands Out in Race for Supreme Court, Has All the Tools to Be Strong Judge

By tony Farina · September 16, 2026

By Tony Farina I’ve covered many court proceedings and trials in my more than 35 years as a newspaper and television reporter and I want to make the point at the beginning of this story that whether elected or appointed, some judges are fair and honest and many others fall short of the mark. In other words, the word jurist does not convey skill and knowledge of the law; it is just a role that some serve with distinction, and others do not. By definition, a jurist is a person who has expert or thorough knowledge of the law but

Is Niagara Falls Crisis Self-Inflicted? Lots of Questions, Few Answers

By tony Farina · September 15, 2026

By Tony Farina There are certainly many questions swirling around the mayor’s declaration of a state of emergency in Niagara Falls over trash, blight, and deteriorating streets that was declared back on July 20 and has been extended several times since because, according to Mayor Robert Restaino, the City Council refused to approve contractor agreements. But some observers point to depleted staff at City Hall, like in Public Works and Code Enforcement and other departments, as really self-inflicted wounds that are the underlying reasons work is not getting done in the city. Or is there even more to the story,

The  Data Center That Answers Hochul’s Objections There was a time when Niagara Falls did not ask Albany whether it was permitted to prosper. The river was here. That was enough. The town had something Albany couldn’t give it. It used what was here. Water. Power. Work. Jobs. Industry. A future. In 1895, the Adams plant took the river and put it into wire. The current went to Buffalo. It changed the industrial world. Tesla supplied the designs. Westinghouse built the machines. Niagara supplied the falling water. Then industries came. Electrochemical. Electrometallurgical. They came because Niagara offered abundant, inexpensive electricity.

Niagara Falls Has Millions of Tourists But Needs to Find a Way to Capture That Wealth

By Tony Farina The City of Niagara Falls, N.Y., boasts one of the world’s greatest natural wonders that people from around the world come to see, but despite incredible tourism numbers of more than nine million visitors a year, the city of now less than 50,000 people is still pretty darn poor. Niagara Falls does not have a tourism problem; it has a tourism-capture problem, and the distinction should be a starting point for a serious new discussion about the city’s future. And ladies and gentlemen, that discussion needs to start now. The question is no longer whether Niagara Falls
