• $150 minimum service fee, which covers up to the first two hours of labor
• Additional time billed at $85 per hour, rounded to the nearest 30 minutes
Please note that prices listed on Thumbtack are baseline estimates and may vary depending on project complexity, accessibility, materials, or other on-site conditions.
Travel outside of Orange County may incur a travel fee, depending on distance and scope of work.
Every visit includes careful planning, proper care, and a commitment to quality workmanship.

Ethan was great. Hooked up my Ice maker and water filter. He went to Home Depot and got correct hose’s to complete job. Just got a good feeling about him. Trust worthy. I will definitely hire him again.

Ethan is professional and gets the job done beautifully. We had 6 wall panels installed to our dining table, he went out of his way to do measurements ahead of time to let me know how many to order! Excellent customer service.
Ethan also was kind enough to stop by Home Depot as I asked for him to wear booties inside the house. Goes above and beyond! Such a positive experiment. Will hire again for more stuff around the house.

Ethan is a very respectful kind and polite guy who cares very much about his customers . He responded immediately to my emails and called when running 15 mins late , so was I . He cleans up after the work he completes and i was thrilled to have my dead bolts updated to my house after 13 years and he adjusted my garage door lock , screen door , removed old tv for me and all being Covid -19 cautious . I look forward to hire Ethan again to help me with my next job this month ( my bathrooms ) need some work . I have referred my neighbor to him Dottie J. She needs her locks done as well . It’s hard to find a dependable honest Handiman but Ethan is one !!!

Ethan came by to install our pendant lights and hang very difficult to install garage racks. WOW! He did such a fantastic job. The pendant lights look great and the garage racks were secure. He also explained the maintenance and upkeep for the racks and pendants. Also, he helped me with a few random things around the house that I needed help with. I will 100% be reaching out to Ethan again. Highly recommend!

We had a Costco playground/swing set installed by a highly rated company that claimed they had experience, when unfortunately that was furthest from the truth and it was put together poorly. Ethan came to the rescue and fixed what the other guys messed up. He came up with solutions to create a safe swing set for my young children and I am so happy that I found someone who listened/fixed my concerns. Thank you for the amazing work! I will surely use your services again!
