The HandyForce HomeCare Plan now runs in three levels, from $549 to $3,200 a year, plus a per-door plan for landlords. What each one covers, who it suits, and the terms in plain words.
Split-level houses are not compromised, they were built to a different brief. Two or three well chosen openings is all most of them need.
