ElbowGrease was born out of a realization that it is far too difficult for adults to get some help around the house. Gone are the days when you could simply ask the friendly neighborhood paper boy to water your petunias, paint your fence, or walk your dog. This is where ElbowGrease comes in.
ElbowGrease will take whatever job you may need done, whatever pay you're comfortable with, and whenever it works with your busy schedule, and pair you with a motivated high-school or college age worker. Just sit back, submit jobs, and let us do the work.
Adults get peace of mind and teenagers get to earn $$ for their work, both on their own schedule. We call that a win-win, and we are proud to offer this opportunity to the community.
With the information you provide in our short order form, we can match you with workers that are ready to go. Your personal information will only be shared with potential employees.
We'll do the work in finding a willing and motivated worker interested in the job. Our employee will proceed to contact you directly in order to confirm a time that fits your schedule.
Watch in amazement as your tasks simply disappear. After your work is completed, go ahead and pay the workers – we’ll take care of the rest. Worry about what matters to you.
Get your jobs done now.
"This past weekend I had the opportunity to hire [Employees] through Elbow Grease to move a heavy buffet/china hutch from my house to my niece’s apartment.They had great upfront communication, arrived on time, performed the task, and didn’t complain when we all found out that my niece’s new apartment required them hauling two very heavy furniture pieces up a flight of stairs. I recommend them if you have an odd job that you need help with. Check them out."
"I will add my wholehearted commendation to Vonnie’s. Over two work days this summer [Elbowgrease Employees] cleared a large area of blueberries, planted, hauled bags of dirt up three floors, and scrubbed and washed the decks and railings at my house. They were always prompt and cheerful, worked hard and had fun (at least they made it look like they were having fun!) They’re too young to get this, but . . . Who you gonna call? Elbow Grease!"
"ElbowGrease helped me dig a trench from my house to the street to uncover a water pipeline under ground. They worked throughout the afternoon and even stayed past the time originally allotted to get the job done. I didn't realize that the pipe would run under a giant rock near the house, which meant they would have to dig under it to uncover the pipe. Nevertheless, they worked tirelessly to find the pipe and help get my project done. Thanks ElbowGrease!"
