A8 • Friday, January 18, 2019 | Seaside Signal | SeasideSignal.com North Coast Handyman knows how to stop the rot Ronnie and Denese Klemple offer handyman services RONNIE KLEMPLE “People say of the finished work ‘thank you,’ and that means so much to us. There’s nothing I like better than taking before and after pictures. I feel proud of our work.” By EVE MARX Seaside Signal Ronnie Klemple and his wife and business manager Denese started North Coast Handyman & Woodworking in June 2017. “Denese and I had been thinking about starting our own business for years,” the Astoria-based licensed and bonded contractor said. A New Jersey native, Klemple aspired to come west at a young age. With years of experience working in construction and super- visory experience at a cab- inetry company in Eugene — a job that was phased out during the recession — Klemple worked at the Wauna Paper Mill in Clats- kanie for six years. “Denese and I knew we had to have a new plan,” he said. In addition to manag- ing North Coast Handyman & Woodworking from their Photo courtesy North Coast Woodworking “I’m proud knowing we’ve made somebody’s life better,” Ronnie Klemple says. home, Denese also runs a small day care program. “We are rot special- ists,” Klemple said. “Rain hits hard in this area. Either through faulty contracting or outdated construction prin- ciples, we see window rot, improperly installed win- dows, rotting decks, porches, roofing, front doors. Rot can start out small, but rot spreads.” Klemple and his crew are specialists in that they iden- tify the cause and root of the rot problem. “We fix it at the source, repair the damage as best we can. Sometimes rot spreads so far you have to pick a stopping point. What we put back is weatherproof particu- lar to the Pacific Northwest.” The roles in the company are clearly defined. “We have the owner, the manager, and the best friend/employee,” he said. The best friend/employee is Charles Bandelt, Klem- ple’s friend for more than 25 years. Bandelt, also a New Jer- sey native with an exper- tise in house framing, vis- ited his friend on the North Coast and fell in love with the place, eventually relocat- ing his family. Denese is the company manager in charge of sched- uling, organizing estimates, and handling all the busi- ness’s customer commu- nication and bookkeeping. She’s also the administra- tor of North Coast Handy- man & Woodworking’s vibrant Facebook page, which among a gallery of photographs of jobs com- pleted, includes a highly entertaining clip of Ron- nie and Charles on the road during a windshield wiper mini-crisis. North Coast Handyman & Woodworking will provide free estimates to residents from Seaside to Knappa. The company is licensed to work in Washington, doing work in Naselle and Ocean Park. Klemple says the most rewarding part of his job is giving folks something bet- ter than they had. “I’m proud knowing we’ve made somebody’s life better,” he said. “Peo- ple say of the finished work ‘thank you,’ and that means so much to us. There’s noth- ing I like better than taking before and after pictures. I feel proud of our work.” North Coast Handyman & Woodworking is tak- ing on projects including rot repair, roofing, siding, decks, porches, stairs and railings, fences, doors, win- dow replacement, and pole barn building. They also do custom cabinetry and cus- tom furniture. Enjoy 10 per- cent off any project booked in 2019. Contact them at 503-440- 5758 or message them on Facebook.
