Didn’t go through Fred but sure wish I did now. He was one of the first people to call me about my plumbing issue. He told me the issues and quoted a very fair rate. Only went with someone else because they promised to do everything the same day but ultimately got swindled and had terrible communication and experience all along the way from the other company. They caused way more harm than good. Even though I didn’t hire Fred he still responded quickly to all my messages and calls and walked me through the other persons mess ups and gave really great advice. I will for sure not make the same mistake and will use Fred for any future project. If you want someone who will stay in constant communication and do the job the right way and shoot you straight don’t make my mistake and give Fred a shot. You wont be disappointed. Cant thank him enough for being a great and compassionate guy!

Fred was very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, it was my pool pump that was bad, not the electric cable. He gave me a few pieces of advice on what I should do next. He called local pool companies around my area and asked if they could come and refurbish the pool pump. I will call him again, and I will recommend him to a friend. Thank you, Fred, for a quick response.

Fred the Handyman did an excellent job for us. He repaired a shutter door that wasn’t working properly and fixed our exterior patio door quickly and efficiently. He also went above and beyond by changing the battery in a smoke detector that was mounted extremely high on a vaulted ceiling — no easy task! Fred was friendly, professional, and very easy to talk to. He made us feel completely comfortable and took the time to explain what he was doing. We truly appreciated his efficiency and attention to detail. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality work.
