Hired on Thumbtack

I used good guys for a few small projects including installation of an outlet, installation of doorbell and TY did a terrific job. He quickly identified the issues and gave good ideas about how to connect to existing wiring with minimal drilling. The quotes were reasonable and he finished the projects within the initial quoted price. I plan to use them again for a few more projects.

Details: No, there is no existing wiring • Install switch or outlet • Replace switch or outlet • 2 switches or outlets • Rooms with water access, like the kitchen • Wood • Drywall • Townhouse

I first hired Chris from The Good Guys Handyman to come into my home to rehang a bedroom door, and paint a bedroom. He is super friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and easy to get in touch with.He did such a amazing job that I hired him for two other projects. He replaced all the trim on our main floor doorways so they all matched craftsman style and I couldn't be happier with the excellent carpentry he did! I called him back again to fix an exterior door that was not framed properly when it was installed and was well weathered. He sturdied the frame and aligned it properly and replaced the exterior trim with vinyl to reduce weathering.I was extremely happy with all the work he did for us and we will definitely be calling him back for future projects!Thanks Chris!

I have used The Good Guys for two projects, a small bathroom remodel & installing new kitchen cabinets. In both instances, they did a fantastic & professional job. Both times they sent Jamie to do the work, who was great about asking questions, communicating what he was doing, and explaining various options along with his recommendation.In both instances, the time it took came in under the estimated time, which was nice as it helped save a little money.

Weve hired Good Guys Handyman for multiple jobs weve been tackling after moving into our house. Ty put an electrical outlet in our master walk-in closet, secured an electrical outlet in our kitchen island, and swapped out a bunch of bathroom vanity fixtures. He also installed GFI outlets in our garage and moved the location of our dining chandelier electrical box and installed the chandelier (pictured). Jamie has done dry wall repair for us, changed the swing on our master bedroom door, and installed a door in the trellising under our deck so we could have under deck access, among other things. Chris repainted our kitchen island (pictured). We have been incredibly happy with everything theyve done for us, which is why we keep coming back to them time and again. They are kind, personable, and great to work with. Ive always felt like theyve had ample expertise for the jobs theyve done for us. We recommend them wholeheartedly!
