Rob installed a ceiling lamp and hung some pictures. It was easy to set up an appointment via text. He arrived on time, did a professional installation and was super helpful. I highly recommend him and will be calling him again.

Rob was excellent! He arrived promptly, was very efficient, and did an amazing job installing my chandelier. He was also patient with me while I figured out which light bulbs and options I wanted, which I really appreciated. His professionalism and attention to detail made the whole process stress-free. I’m very happy with the results and look forward to working with him again on future projects. Highly recommend!
I'm a repeat clinet, having used Rob for several installation projects--installinglight fixtures, shelving and large art. Each team he has done an excellent job, is timely, and provides a competitive rate. I highly recommend him.
Rob did an outstanding job installing wall mirrors and 2 ceiling fans, as well as putting in a new shower faucet and attachment. He was super professional and provided top quality work. Highly recommend and would definitely book him again.

I’ve hired Rob repeatedly for a variety of projects: microwave installation, ceiling light fixture removal and installation, under cabinet, hard-wired lightinstallation, and even kitchen cabinet door and drawer front installation. He does everything right - he’s meticulous, polite, punctual, professional, and takes the time to think through each job so that it’s done properly. He really is everything you’d want in a handyman and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
