“I saw G. Borders' Facebook video on how he repairs outdoor wooden beams typical on Mid-Century Modern houses and was surprised he works in the D/FW area. My 60+ year old beams were rotting, and his repair job was extremely effective and will no doubt last a long time. He rebuilt the 65-year-old front arbor as well as repairing the beams. He applies borate paint, borate rods, and even drills in rebar where needed. Then he rebuilds the ends of the beams to look exactly like the original wood and paints them. His craftsmanship and attention to detail are excellent. I couldn't be happier, and recommend G. Borders 100%, without reservation.”

“Skip just finished working on several things we had asked him to do. The biggest task we gave him was repairing/replacing the fascia on the front of our house – and it turned out to be during the 100+ temps we were experiencing. He and Blaine, his assistant, did a fantastic job! They both were professional, courteous, helpful and worked their tails off. We will certainly use G. Borders Home Repair & Handyman Services again in the future.”

“If you have a remodel project, I recommend Skip at G Borders Home Repairs. They made my remodeling so easy. The best part was the pride they take in their work and attention to detail helped me not overlook important decisions. I plan on using them on my future projects. You are in good hands with Skip and his team.”

“Five stars plus! Skip is networked and knows who to call when he can't do the work - such as plumbing or surgically cutting out bricks. His assistant, Blaine, is also very skilled, knowledgable, and does great work. Everyone showed up when they said they would and the project was finished in less than two weeks!”

“Mr Borders did an excellent job repairing some damages around my home. I can't event tell there was any damage to begin with. He was on time and communicated well about the progress of the project. Would highly recommend to anyone needing reapirs in their home.”

“Skip and Blaine did a fantastic job repairing the water-rotted floor below our kitchen sink. They also found and addressed other issues we weren't aware of. Very professional team, we'll call them for more jobs in the future.”

“I highly recommend this company. Skip and his team listen to you, provide insight to what they are doing, and really make you feel like they care about your property. I’m sure I will use him again in the future. We are wrapping up a bathroom project and if you have the opportunity to let him bid, take it. I’ll definitely keep him as a go to! Thank you, Skip.”

“We’ve used Skip twice now and he does great work. He shows up on time, doesn’t cut corners, is detail oriented and thorough. Highly recommend.”

“Skip and his team were punctual and handle the job without any issue. They did a great job, and I’ll certainly hire them again in the future”

“I got the impression that my small $500-$700 handyman job was too small for them. They were too busy with home improvement projects. I wondered why they advertised handyman services?”

“He was on time and punctual. He did the work quickly and educated me on what he was doing and where the problem most likely came from as well as what to do in the future if the problem started to happen again. Would highly recommend!”

“Great service. The value was good and they did a great job taking care of my furniture when moving it.”

“Excellent to work with, highly recommend”
