By far the best handyman, we wish that we could have found him sooner! He and his team member were so thoughtful in their work.

I can't praise Alex enough for being such an all round superstar, and will definitely use his services again and also recommend him to all friends and family. He defines the "handy" in handyman and fixed many big and small fiddly issues that had been bothering us for a long time. We have two cheap beds who's legs kept falling off, but we didn't want to junk these beds and fill more landfill. Alex fixed and leveled the legs to stabilize both beds. While he was here, he also fixed a number of loose connections in a lampshade, microwave socket, and diagnosed and fixed a garage bulb that was acting strangely. Last but not least, he tightened and stabilized legs on a nice lamp that I was about to throw away cos it was unstable. He noticed and replaced my AC filters as well. Besides being a Superhandyman, Alex was very professional, pleasant and went out of his way to help us. He cleaned up behind him, and went out of his way to clean the dust accumulated in the edges, and even cleaned up a chewing gum that my son had stuck under his bed. His charges were very reasonable and he declined the extra tip I offered for his service. Alex is the handyman I was waiting for all my life! I'll never get into my wife's bad books again! Thank you Alex!!

We had called Alex for Electrical, plumbing and some miscellaneous handy work. He installed new Chandellier, lights in bathroom, faucet work within the given hours. He is very professional and sincere with his work. He gave a honest feedback. He worked with no supervision and did a wonderful job. I would recommend him for any handyman work. Great person to work with

Alex The Handyman was very responsive, quick, and professional. I had two doors that didn’t properly closed and they fixed them, including grinding the unfit part and repainting the peeled area, just in 30 minutes. I am very satisfied with their quick and professional repair. I will definitely hire them again if I have another project in the future.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  My rates and terms: - The base hourly rate for handyman service is $90 per hour. - Weekends and holidays are $120 per hour for new jobs scheduled for weekends and holidays. - The minimum fee for any job is $150 (about 1.5hr labor and essential materials included). - If my helpers do work with the same effort, they add $30 per hour each. (For example - holding not heavy weighted items during installation, bringing tools does not make the job more expensive for you) - Essentials: screws, spackling/putty - are free. - Specific materials are not included in labor. - Fixed price list for some jobs: please, describe your project in detail, it might be a fixed pay per project job, like TV mounting. It is more convenient for you and me as you pay and get the exact service. Visit/On-site estimate fee from $50 up to $100 - depends on the distance/type of the job to estimate An on-site estimate fee will be waived if hired A discount of 15% on labor is available for customers of age 60+ Mon-Fri work hours 10 am - 8 pm Saturday work hours 2 pm - 8 pm Sunday - 2pm-8pm, maybe a day off

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  We are discussing the details of the project, I do by request an online or on-site estimate, then we discuss the convenient time to do the job. Is that easy? Yes, it is!

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I have a college degree in Technology that I got back in the USSR.
