What Customers Say
“We are new home owners and it’s pretty overwhelming. We were happy to welcome Matt from PHS to help us with items we are not skilled to do— such as hanging drapes, fixing light fixtures, realigning doors so they close, etc. Matt is professional yet personable and got the jobs done right!! We would definitely recommend PHS to anyone who needs a home thing done— big or small!!”
“I had my condo listed as a STR for years and needless to say it took an absolute beating. Dylan and his crew did an incredible job getting my condo ready to be listed. Communication was great, pricing was fair, and the work was exemplary. I could not be happier with the service they provided and would recommend without hesitation.”
“I am thrilled with the fixture installations by Dylan and his team. Leading up to the day of installation, Dylan was responsive, listened to my needs and found great products for the 2 areas where I needed recommendations that were in addition to fixtures selected by my interior designer. He kept me updated every step of the way. On the day of, he and Geo went above and beyond: for example, a switch in my newly built house that was "dead" was rerouted to one of my dazzling new fixtures! Dylan even called my attention to an issue that he noticed while in my attic with my HVAC and gave practical advice and options on how to handle. One small issue with a microwave light, that I thought, "hey maybe while they have the breaker off I can sneak around them and fix myself"--nope: they didn't blink at completely fixing for me. Also, they cleaned up so well that the only trace left was the stunning lights they installed. Dylan's work was a game changer in my great room and kitchen: I'm happy, my interior designer is happy, I can't wait to show off their work, which started probably before Dylan pulled out of the driveway: I sent everyone pics. Thank you for everything, team!”
“Dylan and his team recently remodeled our entire kitchen and 1st floor half bathroom, and we could not be happier with their work. The process was thorough and collaborative from start to finish, and timely! In 4 weeks our new kitchen and half bathroom was ready to host a gathering with friends. Thank you to Dylan and his amazing team!!”
“We used Papasan to get a condo ready for sale. The work done was beautiful and done at a fair price. We definitely feel that the value added by the updates Papasan made will make selling the condo much more successful.”
“We recently had our bathroom remodeled (mostly down to the studs) by Papasan Home Services. We could not have been more pleased by the process or by the work they did. Dylan was great at communicating during the project, and was flexible about adapting to what we wanted. The price was definitely fair. We got three bids, and went with Dylan because it was clear he was going to manage the project well. Dylan, Gio, and Matt (the staff) were all personable and friendly, worked very hard to keep the impact of a big remodeling to a minimum, did excellent, timely work. They went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with our new bathroom. I'd recommend them for any project.”
“I don’t know if this business still exists given they seem to have disappeared from social media and don’t answer messages, but what I do know is I had them install some ceiling fans and the screws were over tightened so much that they’re stripped and won’t come out. To say I’m irritated is an understatement. At the time of service, I also had to have them come out and make fixes to their work multiple times. I’ve tried to get them to come back out and fix the fans to no avail. Do not recommend.”
“Papasan Home Services came by our business to make repairs after some flooding, including drywall replacement, painting, ceiling tile replacement, cabinet re-installation, and more. They were efficient, polite, and had fantastic communication throughout the entire process. Everyone we worked with was professional and delivered fantastic work and results. We've worked with a lot of vendors, and Papasan stood out with the experience they provided. It was a pleasure to work with them and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have services completed quickly and competently!”
“Dylan, Cole and team at Papasan are so great we hired them to do work in both of our homes. Our first experience with them was a make ready of our old home as we prepped to put it on the market. They were easy to work with, great at communicating and worked with us to find the best and most cost effective solutions for our 50+ year old home. When we planned to do some renovations in our new home it was a no brainer to hire them again. They redid our kitchen quickly, affordably, and beautifully and we couldn’t be happier. We will absolutely be using them again in the future as we work through our project list and can’t recommend them enough!”
“Gio installed a reverse osmosis water system in our kitchen and he was awesome!!! I was thrilled to us Papasan Home Services and plan to utilize them in the future. Super easy to communicate with, schedule, and great work overall.”
“Dylan and his team did a great job renovating the kitchen in our new home as well as completing several other projects (flooring, building a new tv cabinet, mantel, and floating shelves, installing light fixtures, etc.). He helped us come up with creative ideas and was able to execute our vision when other contractors said it wasn’t possible. We’ve continued to use him for minor repairs and consultations and he is always thorough and efficient, frequently going beyond what is required (he even relocated a large spider on his last visit 😀). His crew is great and easy to work with. Highly recommend the entire team!”
“Papasan Home Services has professionalized the Handy Man business! I was selling a rental property and I did not have to lift a finger. They worked through a list of needs that was identified in the inspection and even saved me money. I would highly recommend working with them on any large or small home projects.”
“Just to highlight, I would give the Papasan Home Service team a 5-star rating for doing an outstanding job remodeling a bathroom vanity. They (Dylan & Glenn) were very professional, polite, very experienced and knowledgeable of the various trades (repairing sheet-rock, painting, plumbing, etc) involved. The quote they provided was competitive and they were easy to work with in regards to scheduling. They arrived when they said they would, did what they said they'd do, and effectively communicated with us throughout the job, as needed. We would recommend their service and would definitely hire them again!”
“I've been super, super happy with Dylan at Papasan Home Services. He answered the call to install a Saterdrop under sink water filtration unit at my house, and due to complications outside of Dylan's control (complications with the unit itself), we experienced a number of issues and problems with the water filtration system. Dylan's professionalism and support throughout the entire process was second to none. He coordinated directly with Waterdrop customer support, and allowed me to be completely hands-off through the entire process. What was an unfortunate and potentially frustrating issue and malfunction was handled beautifully and smoothly, thanks to Dylan's incredible professionalism and service orientation. That, along with his general generosity, kindness, and communication have been deeply appreciated throughout the entire experience. Thank you, Dylan!”
“Dylan was fantastic! He quickly resolved the issue I reported and went above and beyond by replacing the weather stripping on the doors and performing extra maintenance in the kitchen—none of which I had requested. 5 stars”
“Dylan, Gio and the rest of the Papasan Home Services did an amazing job upgrading our house. They are very professional, kept me informed about the progress of the work, so I didn’t have to chase them daily, and we have a high quality finished product completed on time. As a civil engineer myself, I’m picky about details when it comes to house repairs. They performed multiple tasks including painting the house, grout cleaning, outdoor repairs, painting of kitchen and bathroom cabinets etc. I’m very happy about the results. They also worked very clean. They treated my house as if their own and left the house tidy after each work day, and very clean when they finished the job. I will definitely reach out to them for any upgrade/repair projects in the future and highly recommend them.”
“Just to highlight, I would give the Papasan Home Service team a 10-star rating for doing an outstanding job preparing my house for sale. They (Dylan & crew) were very professional, polite, very experienced and knowledgeable in what needed to be done to make the house ready for viewing. They provided welcoming ideas on what needed to be done based on their experience. Since I was remote they provided before and after pictures and videos. The quote they provided was very detailed and they were easy to work with in regards to scheduling. They arrived when they said they would, did what they said they'd do, and effectively communicated with us throughout the job. They also welcomed suggestions given by the realtor on a few upgrades. I would recommend their service and would definitely hire them again!”
“I had a great experience with Papasan Home Services. My neighbors had used them and recommended them. I received a call shortly after my initial inquiry, and Dylan came out to diagnose the problem. He was very professional, and presented me several options. I never felt like he tried to upsell or convince me I needed additional repairs. Two days later, the work was completed, and it was completed correctly.”
“Absolutely worth your time and money to give them a call. I work with Dylan on a regular basis for a ton of different properties and he is 100% my favorite. Has never missed a deadline, never misquoted me, and always does a great job. I know I can trust things will go smoothly and stay on budget when I call Papasan Home Services.”
“I had a great experience with Dylan and Gio for my recent handyman services! They helped me with various tasks like installing curtains, hanging items on my walls, and handling more complex jobs like installing outlets, removing shelving, installing cabinets, and texturing walls. They paid attention to detail and were precise in their work. Dylan and Gio not only had exceptional skills but also were friendly and professional throughout. I felt confident in their abilities from start to finish. I also liked that their pricing was honest and upfront, with no surprise fees. I highly recommend Dylan and Gio for any handyman services. They're a great team that went above my expectations. If you need reliable, skilled, and friendly professionals, they're the ones to call!”
