Introduction: - @80$/ hr - 2 hour minimum on all projects Little about me: Shortly after college in 2013 I left home to play baseball in Italy for 2 seasons for an Italian professional team. During that time away from my now wife and family I realized exactly what I wanted to do in life which was to create a positive lifestyle for my family and community through helping others. The week after returning from Italy I applied for a construction position in foundation leveling. During the first year with this network I managed to work my way up to lead a crew of 4 as a Forman and went on to help lead the companies commercial division for another 2 years. Towards the end of 2016 I finally realized I wanted to spend the rest of my life with my now wife and move to San Diego to start that positive lifestyle. I applied to another company as a foundation repair specialist and within the month moved my wife, mom dad and brother to San Diego to start my vision. After two successful years of working for that company my wife an I we're married in December of 2017. Within two weeks of being home from the wedding I decided to start my own handyman business to be home more often for family but to also enable myself to get back into building and fixing things while working for myself which I enjoy. I have a strong and positive work ethic which was engrained in me from baseball and since I was a child. I plan to always leave a homeowners house with a positive encounter. I'm very personable and am the one to call when you are in need of help. 1. Who am I? - My name is Peter Palma, I am a positive person who is passionate about enjoying life to the fullest and taking pride in what I do. 2. What do I do? - I provide peace of mind and happiness to those around me by being the one to call when things around our homes need to be fixed or tasks need completing. 3. Who do I do this for? - Anyone in my community who is in need of help and is willing to accept a positive helping hand. (I also do this for myself because I enjoy not having an easy solution to the problems that may pop up in our old or new homes) 4. What do my clients want or need? - Someone who can provide a better quality of life by bringing a positive out of the box mindset to fix or complete tasks that need doing, but more importantly someone they can trust like family to be left in their home if need be. I may not always have the answers or skillset to complete all jobs requested of me but I will not pretend I am able to complete a task if I am not sure I will do a good job. Currently slowing work schedule due to having our first child the beginning of Feb 2020.

Peter was excellent; exactly what we were looking for in a handyman. He went out of his way to take care of our project same-day even though he was already booked. He was kind, professional, prompt and down-to-earth. He got all the work done that we needed in 2 hours and made sure we were happy before he left. We will definitely be hiring him again!

Details: Less than 2 hours (Simple tasks) • Installation • Bedroom • Living room • Shelving • Wall hangings • Home

Exceptionally Fantastic!!! I moved recently, so I hired Palma's Handyman Services to assemble furniture and also hang heavy mirrors, pictures, etc. Peter was absolutely wonderful! Extremely professional and very polite. His quick initial response time to my Thumbtack work request and further discussions about the job was outstanding and impressive. His punctuality was amazing...He gave me a 30-minute "heads up" and arrived EXACTLY when I expected! His work quality was absolutely impeccable, very precise with attention to every detail and extremely conscious of making sure each job was done correctly the first time, without any re-dos. He tackled each successive job with a diligent and appropriately-timely approach. He ensured he used the exact type of secure wall anchors and furniture fasteners for each project, so I had no doubt whatsoever all was totally secure! He truly listened to what I wanted to achieve and made sure it was to my satisfaction 100%. I have a couple expansive walls and some tight spaces in my home, and if I wasn't sure about how I wanted something his suggestions were perfect! It was very evident he has exceptional technical expertise, but he ALSO has a rare artistic eye and full conceptual approach to complex spatial placements. So pleasant to work with, with a very evident, hard-to-find these days true work ethic--a person who takes exceptional pride in his work. Can't say enough good things! I absolutely would hire him again as often as necessary. He is a real artisan in his craft, which is a rarity anymore! Thank so much Peter! ------Anna M.

Peter did a great job that was well worth the money. He was friendly, asked plenty of questions prior to beginning work, and got the job done right. He’s the type of handyman I’d trust even if I wasn’t around while he was working. I’ll definitely be hiring Peter in the future and highly recommend him for any and all projects in San Diego.

Details: I need help with one project or a few simple projects, less than 2 hours of work • Installation • Living room • Hanging pictures or mirrors • Residential • I'm ready to hire the right handyman based on price & fit

Peter did a great job of patching up and painting our living room ceiling. He was punctual, professional, and honest about his craft. Even his hourly rate is entirely reasonable for the quality of work he offers. We will certainly not hesitate to hire Peter again for any future handyman work.
