Hired on Thumbtack

We did not imagine we could find such an experienced and consummate professional as Jim come to our newly-purchased home to fix such a wide range of issues (assembly of large metal cabinets, modified railings on staircase, installed new shiplap board on accent wall, installed basement door behind bulkhead, and more!) - all by himself! But we are so happy and grateful that we found him! If you will appreciate someone who does top-notch work for a truly reasonable price, who is very knowledgeable with many aspects of home improvement - and is more than capable of doing it all in a truly exemplary fashion, then you will surely appreciate this wonderfully gifted handyman Jim who does his work very quietly and unobtrusively in your home, and who demonstrated an outstanding work-ethic, professionalism, and kind good demeanor. We didn’t even notice till he was done and gone that he had replaced some rotten board nearby the door he placed for us that many people would have completely ignored, and he changed it out for us and he never mentioned it either! Bottom line: If you’re lucky enough to get Jim to help you with your project you will never be disappointed. We highly recommend him! Thank you again Jim! Sincerely, Patricia and Kevin, Hanover, MA

Can’t say enough good things about Jim who responded so quickly and also completed the work of moving two beds quickly. This project required disassembly and reassembly of two large bed frames. He is a great guy, very professional and easy to work with. Five stars!
