A new house with bare walls and a long to-do list doesn’t just test your patience—it can spark a business that serves a whole neighborhood. That’s how Lawrence Adams turned a personal need for TV mounting, blinds, and furniture assembly into Lyndale's Honey Do List, a trusted local service built on speed, care, and integrity. We walk through his path from helping friends in Embrey Mill to creating a repeatable, professional process that saves homeowners time, stress, and surprise costs.

Lawrence breaks down the biggest DIY myth: if a video makes it look easy, your walls will agree. He explains the unseen steps that keep projects safe—finding studs, choosing the right anchors, protecting wiring, aligning brackets under load—and why patience and the right tools are non-negotiable. Along the way, he shares practical tips for knowing when to call a pro, how to prep a space so the job takes minutes instead of hours, and the simple checklist that prevents damage before it happens.

We also dig into what sustains a local service business beyond the work itself. Lawrence’s philosophy is clear: enjoy the craft, plan like a pro, and lead with integrity. His story about returning a duplicate payment to a client with dementia reveals the values behind the brand—and why his reviews sound the same for a reason. Outside the job, faith and family keep him grounded, from supporting his daughter’s marching band to making time for church, the gym, and weekly date nights. It’s a portrait of service that feels both practical and personal: dependable help, done right, by a neighbor who cares.

If you’re weighing DIY vs. hire, starting a home services business, or just need a reliable hand for the next project, this conversation will help you act with confidence.
