“David was amazing! He was quick and thorough, which is exactly what I was looking for with a two month old knowing it would require louder noises. He showed up on time. Offered to do more work on the project if I wanted and didn’t make me feel pressured. left the place, clean and tidy, even though I told him not to worry about it. I do need more work done and would be more than happy to have David in my home again.”

“I had a small piece of drywall that I needed to remove to find a leak and have no experience doing drywall so I could not repair it myself. I called Mr. Handyman and they were very responsive and prompt to give me a quote and get me on the schedule. David C. came out and was a pleasure to work with. He made the patch look perfect. He used tape, mud, and then painted it and you can’t even tell where it is on the wall. Very impressed and their price was great too. Will definitely be using them again. Highly recommend!”

“Eric made an overwhelming situation a lot simpler and calmer to naviGate. Now our gates and fence is all better. I even learned new perspectives about my house I didn’t see before. Thank you all at Mr. Handyman!”

“Eric came to fix a pocket door that was stuck in our wall. We were worried we’d have to tear into the wall to fix it, but he was able to resolve the issue without any damage. We’re relieved and very grateful for his work. Eric was friendly, professional, and the pricing was very reasonable. Highly recommend!”

“Working with Mr Handyman was a pleasure. Communications with the office was excellent. David Elliot did a great job of repair squirrel damage on my roof facia. He is prompt, fast, efficient, professional and great to work with. I will definitely use Mr Handyman and Dave again. The photos below show a couple of before and after shots of the squirrel damage.”

“A door was repaired and reinstalled amazingly perfect , after previous company who did it completely wrong. David , handyman, came on time, explained, showed, reinstalled everything and cleaned after his job. Very professional, so glad to have him. Will definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for professional door installer.”

“They were on time, polite, and very knowledgeable. They mounted a 75" TV on the wall (aluminum studs). I've never delt with aluminum studs, but Mr. Handyman had. He had the TV hung in under two hours, start to finish! It was really nice to not have to worry about the installation. Thanks for a job done well.”

“Drew was on time, very kind, explained everything carefully, and did an excellent job replacing my bathroom vanity. Left everything looking great and took care to keep clean the rest of my house. The only issue was that the quote given initially greatly differed from the final price. While he had to spend more hours than expected due to a problem with my plumbing, he still said he would contact the office staff, because the quote was really off. In light of everything he did, the hours worked, and the final product, I believe the final price was still fair.”

“Sean did a great job for us last week. He was efficient, helpful and did an outstanding job. I will asking for him by name in the future.”

“Experience all around was excellent! We were looking to install floating shelves in our kitchen for a bar area, we didn't trust ourselves to do this on our tile. We got lots of feedback from Suzanne and Diana at Mr. Handyman before even scheduling the job on what shelves would work best! David came to install the shelves - and was honest about the area not being great to put shelves as the wall wasn't level. However, we gave the go ahead and he did his best and they look fantastic! He also noticed our front door was a little off and quickly adjusted it! Will definitely use Mr. Handyman again in the future!”

“What a nightmare working with this company. To be clear, this is not about the workers who actually did the job, they were great and very professional. The real problem is the company’s administration, which is completely disorganized and unprofessional. From the beginning, I clearly explained what needed to be fixed. They explained the fees, which were already expensive, and I agreed. They were supposed to send someone at 11:00 a.m., but instead called me at 1:30 p.m. to say the job (attaching the kitchen sink) could not be done by one person and that they would need to send two people, of course, charging more. At that point, I felt I had no choice but to accept. When the handyman arrived, he told me that the office made the job sound much more difficult than it actually was and that it did not require two people. Since both workers were already there and the holidays were the next day, I didn’t want to send one of them away without work, so I allowed both to stay. The job was completed, I paid with a check, at that moment since of course they would not leave the house without payment, and that was the end of it…or so I thought. A couple of weeks later, I received a text saying I”

“Mr. Handyman was easy and fast to work with. I called one afternoon inquiring about some window repairs and had an appointment the following afternoon which was amazing. Eric showed up and was super helpful! He fixed some window hinges, repaired a screen and helped me source a sliding door screen all within 40 min! He was fast, knowledgeable, and was able to fix all my repairs. Will use them again when I need some handy work.”

“Eric showed up on time and was happy to tackle the projects we had lined up. He took down old smoke alarms and put up new ones. He installed an electronic lock on the front door and new regular locks on the other three doors.”
