Dillon installed anti-tip devices on a lot of our appliances and furniture, protecting our baby and possessions. He did a great job! We would hire him again.

Dillon, handy dandy Dillon is a very capable handyman. I had a bunch of annoying tasks that I'd been putting off forever, mostly because they required an 18-foot ladder and a whole lot of courage. He fixed two sets of loft curtains that were out of reach—one with a slipped chain and another, the brackets needed to be screwed back into the wall. He also tackled a list of other issues. He reattached a light fixture that had come off the wall and fixed some loose bathroom pipes, even taking the time to deal with the rust. He also got a dresser drawer working again by securing the track screws and even helped me power wash my windows. He completed all the work to my satisfaction in about three hours. It was such a relief to have all these long-overdue projects taken care of by someone so reliable and trustworthy. I'd procrastinate on this work forever, but having Dillon on my side made me feel completely taken care of. He's my go-to guy for any home repairs, and I highly recommend his services.

Dillon responded literally minutes after I sent a request to a few Pro’s in the area. What caught my eye in his profile was that he was able to do DIY projects— I had him fix my patched up old doorbell/intercom as another handyman didn’t quite do it correctly. Now I can finally have my Ring doorbell installed! He was very professional, punctual and went above and beyond. I’d definitely recommend him!

I am absolutely thrilled to have found Dillon the Handy Dandy Thumbtack Pro on Thumbtack. He was quick to respond to my request and reached out to hear more details on the tasks we needed assistance with in our cherished home that was built in 1892. A home with many unique quirks, which Dillon handled with great care. He was punctual, a great communicator, a problem solver and detail oriented . He is exceptional in his profession and brings a wealth of knowledge to your projects. We had nine rooms to be addressed, and a total of 20 projects to do. From caulking the kitchen counters and sink, to adding weatherstripping on two doors, to installing a new dryer vent, fixing an old drawer handle on a wooden antique built in cabinet, removing the workings of an old bedroom door knob, repairing it, and having it working like new and much,much, more. He worked wonderfully with me as we went from room to room taking down ceiling light globes and globes from various chandeliers. After cleaning we worked together to re-install each and every last one. Dillon even figured out how to take the five globes of an art deco type ceiling light, which I am extremely grateful for, as it came with the home when purchased and my employers had no information on it to go by for care. I highly recommend Dillion, am blessed to have found him, as he will be my go to on any future needs at our home. A very deserving 5 *****!!

Dillon was awesome to work with. He came by to touch up paint, patch some drywall, and replace our thermostat. He showed up on time, explained what he was doing, and made sure everything looked great before he left. The drywall patching especially is flawless—you’d never know there was damage there. Dillon is professional, kind, and clearly cares about the quality of his work. I’ll definitely be calling him again
