Fast and efficient work. He did an excellent job and explained any questions that I had. Extremely satisfied!

Stephanie S.

Victor did an amazing job fixing the holes in my wall and hanging my shelves, pictures, and mirror. He was meticulous in detail & made sure the job was done perfectly. Very professional and careful—and made sure to clean up any mess! I would highly recommend working with Victor for any of your handyman needs!

Ruth M.

Ray did a great job helping diagnose why my washing machine wasn’t draining. He’s very knowledgeable and friendly - would certainly use him again.

Beth R.

What a great young man! Luis was personable, on-time, paid attention to detail, and did all of the work perfectly. I would definitely recommend him and work with him again. Thanks Luis!

Chloe M.

Luis was great! He arrived early, worked extremely efficiently, and the final product looked awesome. Would definitely recommend!

Brandon P.

Ray was the second serviceman from Handy in the same day. I found him to be friendly, fast and experienced/knowledgeable. He took great pride in his work and even offered to finish and correct the job of the previous serviceman who was extremely slow and inexperienced. I will only book Ray going forward. I was somewhat skeptical of his high rating but it is well deserved. Handy is lucky this guy hasn’t left and started his own business.

Aarti G.

I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Joan. Our project ended up being a little more complicated than anticipated but Joan was pleasant and communicative the entire time. He installed three new glass panes in our front entryway and because the house is quite old, he meticulously rebuilt each frame so that each pane was properly secured. He went out of his way to help us save some of the old glass which was the original glass from the 60s. Great first experience with Joan and Handy!

Kristina L.

Ethan helped install my shower enclosure. He paid attention to how level the enclosure was and tried to install as neatly as possible, which I appreciate very much. He worked with the caulk I had available and I finished.

Andrew L.

Chetan Was very helpful not only did he do the work quickly and right but he was helpful and coming up with some low-cost alternative

Nicholas D.

Corinthian did an excellent job patching dry wall at my apartment. His craftsmanship exceeded my expectations and he was committed to completing the job to my specifications. He was friendly and engaging. I would hire Corinthian again and I highly recommend him to any prospective customer.
