I first want to say that Mary is by the far the best person I have ever hired not only though this app but from anything!
She can do it all! Mary came to fix a broken door that had a few cracks in it but ended up taking care of a whole bunch of things we needed done around the house including picking up and installing a new toilet!
Not only did she fix our door, but the door looks like it was never damaged and works perfectly. I honestly couldn’t recommend any other person more if you need some work done around your house..
Thank you so much Mary!! :)

Absolute pleasure to work with. She arrived on time, worked hard, completed the job, and remained flexible to my needs as they changed. Can’t ask for any more than that. This project involved 2 simple assembly IKEA cabinets about 30 mins each, and 1 what I consider an advanced IKEA counter project a few hours. All work was done with care and professionalism. After the project, we ended up with parts which needed to be returned. She was very flexible in resolving the issue with me. I will not hesitate to call her again for future projects... and you shouldn’t either.

Mark, it was a great experience working with you on this project for your office! It will be great to get the cabinets hung when the rail comes in. Thank you again!

Mary installed storage ceiling rack for us in our garage. The job turned out to be more difficult than expected because it was hard to find the studs and the spacing wasn’t even. Mary kept with it and removed the drywall to find the studs, installed the racks and repaired all the drywall. The racks and drywall look great! Her cost was very affordable as well. She was a pleasure to work with. We would hire her again for future jobs.

I was in desperate need of finding help putting together a wooden dresser that warned me that it may take up to 90 minutes and two people were needed in order for it to be put together (according to the book). I looked at the "interesting" instruction booklet that came with the dresser and just decided this wasn't something I really wanted to do. I soon messaged Mary and literally instantly got a thorough response from her right away. And a friendly response at that. The day she showed up, she instantly took her shoes off as she entered my residence. I didn't even ask her to. This has been the only handyperson I have EVER had (and I have had a lot of them) who has done such a thing. I really appreciated that respectful gesture. Something family members don't even do at times! Upon arriving, she then instantly started to work on the dresser. In a nutshell, it didn't take her long at all and it was put together beautifully and perfect. The instructions literally said that two people were required to put it together. She conquered it ALONE. She even helped me carry it to the next room so I could set it up in the spot I picked out for it. She was very friendly and personable too. I have just moved into this new place and will soon need some help with some other projects in the future. I will definitely be calling her for her assistance when the time comes. You will not regret hiring her. I now have a sturdy dresser that serves great purpose and is well needed. It is nice to put it to use. Glad she was there to help!

Lori Anne! Thank you so much for the kind words and the opportunity to work with you, and the tenants at your property. It was a full day of work, but was happy to get the job done correctly and connect with you and the tenants.
Looking forward to the future projects and basic maintenance you have already scheduled to complete!
Thank you again for the opportunity to work on the previous drywall and ceiling repair project and reaching out!!
