What our clients say

As a single woman, it is very important that the person I hire for repairs to my home has the highest integrity and dependability. Tom Walker is such a person. He will do the job right for a fair price. Tom will assess a situation and make only the repairs necessary. I highly recommend Walker Home Improvement for your repair and building needs.

M.M., Memphis

Tom has hung pictures, repaired a ceiling that was falling in, hung closet doors, put down molding and quarter-round, installed light fixtures, replaced the tile floor in my bathroom, repaired my fence, and my personal favorite, put in more shelving in my laundry room! Having Tom build a sunroom on the back of my house is my next dream project.

Tom is a hard worker and I have no reservations whatsoever in recommending him.

C.W., Lenoir City

Tom Walker is an excellent problem-solver, has a can-do attitude, and works until the job is done. He shows up when he says he is going to show up, and he accurately estimates the amount of work and materials each job will require.

In an industry full of folks long on promises but short on action, Tom is a breath of fresh air and a reminder that integrity and excellent service are qualities not yet extinct.
