    Orlando was absolutely, positively terrific. He showed up on time (or even a few minutes early) and did phenomenal work. My projects turned out to be a bit more complex than originally expected-- ranging from mounting a heavy mirror with screws and wires (to angle it downward), to framing and hanging a very large canvas print, to fixing a failing faucet handle. These projects required creative problem solving, and Orlando approached each thoughtfully and as though he were doing the projects in his own home. Besides his skills and care, he's also a lot of fun to be around. Imagine a polite version of George Carlin, but "family safe." :-)

    Orlando is fantastic.

    The service was great (same day!), he was a pleasure to work with, and he provided great feedback on how to avoid this problem in the future.

    This experience has made me a fan of Thumbtack.

    Orlando did a great job quickly painting my dresser, and at a competitive price too!

    He was very candid about his strengths and weaknesses, and I got the feeling I could trust him almost immediately. He worked in a very methodical way, which kept him not only fast but precise.

    It was really nice to not have to think about this project and have a pro do it right on the first try. Highly recommend.

    Orlando handyman did a great job in patching the whole and doing the dry wall. He was on time and charged as agreed upon. He had all the tools, he kept me informed about how he would do the work and delivered accordingly. I would recommend him hands down for any handyman services.

Tomorrow fixing a refrigerator that stopped making ice. Friday building track for huge pocket doors in grand old SF house & hanging 6 chandeliers, plus 10 switches/dimmers. It's good to be busy. If it ain't broke - I can fix that! Ciao, Orlando Handyman
