I loved that Howard was quick to respond, was able to do the work in a short time frame, got here when he said he would, and got right to work. He did an excellent job with my repair and I look forward to working with him on future projects.

Highly recommend!! He came out to fix my LG washing machine door that wouldn't lock, and he was an absolute lifesaver. He diagnosed the broken latch immediately and handled the repair with incredible skill and efficiency. Not only was the work top-notch, but he was also friendly, professional, and saved a ton of my time and money. If you need an appliance fixed or any handy job done right the first time, he is definitely the person to call!

We had a broken couch leg that needed quick attention, and Howard Handyman was fantastic. He diagnosed the stripped insert right away, installed mounting plates, leveled both legs and made sure the couch was rock-solid before he left. The whole repair was efficient, tidy and reasonably priced. Excellent communication, professional attitude, and same-day availability. I highly recommend this company for any small carpentry or furniture repairs—will definitely call again!

KB answered up to my request to reset my awning motor. He figured it out very quickly. Turns he is an electrical engineer adding income completing handyman projects. I found several more projects that had been on my todo list for some time. KB did them efficiently and more quickly than I anticipated. I’m hiring him for a more involved project to build an outdoor mister on my patio. I have every confidence in his being able to figure out a solution and implement it. I would definitely recommend KB. He also did quite a bit of work for my neighbors who just moved in. This was a pleasant surprise and reinforced my confidence in his work.
