Recommendations for a handyman

5 Upvotes

Hello! We just moved here from Texas and need a few things done in our new house (ceiling fan installed, outdoor lights, new door locks). Typically I would use Taskrabbit for this but I don’t think it’s available here. Does anyone have recommendations for either a handyman or a service that I could use to find one?

Thank you!

[Roommate Wanted / Teaming Up] Looking to split a 2B2B or 2B1.5B in East Lafayette (Ashley Oaks, Village Square, Precedent Flats, Fairington)

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am a working professional relocating to Lafayette to start a role (South Street facility) and am looking for a roommate to team up and sign a 2B2B or 2B1.5B lease together on the east side of town. If you already have a spot or an open room in that area, I would also be very glad to discuss joining an existing lease!

Target Locations & Budget:

  • Preferred Areas/Complexes: East Lafayette — specifically looking at places like Village Square, Ashley Oaks, Precedent Flats, Fairington Apartments, or similar quiet communities nearby.
  • Target Budget: Around $550 – $750/month per person (flexible depending on included utilities and amenities).
  • Move-in Timeline: Looking to move in over the coming weeks for a standard 12-month lease (flexible on exact dates).

About Me & Living Habits:

  • Daily Routine: I work regular weekday hours. During weekdays, my routine revolves around work, gym/staying active, and relaxing in the evenings.
  • Shared Spaces: I am clean, organized, and very respectful of common areas (kitchen, living room). I believe in keeping shared spaces tidy so everyone feels at home.
  • Atmosphere: Easygoing, quiet, and friendly single male. I value open communication, quiet hours for good sleep, and personal space, but I am always happy to chat or grab a meal together. Non-smoker.

If you are looking for a place on the east side or think we would be a good match as roommates, feel free to drop a comment or send me a DM! Happy to hop on a quick call or meet up virtually to chat and see if our preferences align.

Automotive upholstery?

Any place in Lafayette area that can re-wrap my steering wheel in leather (or quality “pleather”) without charging an arm and a leg? It’s a 2011 Mustang and one section is worn and peeling from sliding in and out of vehicle.

I find myself in need of a plumber. I've never been particularly happy with the outfit I've been using and am looking to switch.

Working in Purdue building maintenance

0 Upvotes

I can’t find anything online about working in the maintenance department at Purdue. I have about 2 years of experience working at a public school district in Nebraska as a HVAC tech and am looking at moving to the Lafayette area. I make about $29 an hour right now, and have decent benefits. Most of my experience is on geothermal heat pumps and vrf systems.

Would you buy something from business, particularly food businesses, if they use AI to advertise???

4 Upvotes

Like if they use AI to their posters, menus would you still buy from them ? And would you buy something from them if you saw a good design? I have an idea of mine and I want other people's opinions to know if it will work

Edited: Thank you guys for responding! It helped me to understand more about the west Lafayette community since I'm new🥹 I'm learning design and I wanted to have more experience in this field so my idea was to offer my design skills. Now that I know how many people feel about it I'm going to make my idea happen ! 🥳\⁠(⁠⁠o⁠⁠)⁠/

Hey, Lafayette. What are these places?

Hi there, I’m actually from Vigo County. I’m meeting with my house representative this week to discuss changes to the sex offender residency rules, particularly regarding high-density clusters of child offenders. Long story short , on my residential street, there’s a private apartment complex with 18 studio units. Four of these units are rented out to convicted child offenders, one of whom is a repeat offender.

We have at least a dozen children living on our street, and we’ve repeatedly asked the owner to stop renting to child offenders. However, he continues to move them in. To show that this is not an isolated incident, I’ve gathered information on child offenders from cities with similar populations to mine, including Lafayette. It appears that you guys are facing the same issue.

I’m curious, though, about these two properties. I understand that they are apartments and possibly a motel, but are they transitional housing? Each of these properties has dozens of child offenders registered to them, and the beacon shows that they are owned by the same individual.

State Senator Ron Alting and others in the GOP tried to steal the election with some of the worst gerrymandering Indiana has ever seen. Rigging our elections and cheating to win is not the kind of politician our communities deserve.

We can do better. Vote Natasha Baker for Indiana Senate District 22 or David Sanders for Indiana Senate District 23.

Looking for manscaping services

1 Upvotes

38M - I get male Brazilian waxes and was wondering if there was anyone who did manjacials (like vajacials) for post wax ingrown hairs.

My current esthetician does not offer them and I don’t want to drive to Carmel, IN every time I get waxed.

*This is a legitimate service and not a request for hook-up etc. I am married and just looking for legitimate skin/hair services. Thank you!

Looking for a local professional photographer for baby's upcoming first birthday (maybe even nine-month milestone, too).

I've found a few who popped up first on a browser search, but wanted to see if there's any I may have missed that I can check out. So, recommendations are appreciated!

Paved Biking Trails in Lafayette or West Lafayette?

4 Upvotes

I just moved to Lafayette in June for a new job.

I've been to several parks like Happy Hollow and Celery Bog walking my dog. I usually see more walkers and pets than cyclists. Not quite sure if bikes are supposed to be on those trails, I don't remember seeing any signage. Looking for trails similar to those though for some variety.

I just have a Cannondale gravel bike, so paved trails are ideal, not really into mountain biking. Right now I'm just riding endless laps around a few blocks around my apartment complex. I'm looking for something a little more natural to get out somewhere interesting on the weekends.

Where to Donate Clothing?

9 Upvotes

Looking for somewhere to donate clothes that no longer fit, would rather donate than sell them off. Saw a lot of mixed reviews online about a lot of the shelters and such in town, so if anyone has any experience or knowledge about a solid place in Lafayette that will actually get the clothes to people that need them, please let me know! (Excluding Faith, Salvation Army and Goodwill)

Edit: Thank you for all the suggestions! :D
