I hired Matt to get my rental home ready for sale, to spruce up the curb appeal and to make a few repairs and improvements to the inside of the house. He pressure washed the house, garage and decks, and gave the front and back decks a long overdue coat of paint. He also cut down and cut up a couple of dead, unwanted trees, and edged the front walkways, keeping the grass cut and taking care of the fall leaves. Inside the house, Matt changed the bedroom light fixtures, re-screened all the storm windows, and installed several bi-fold closet doors, making necessary modifications to fit non-standard door jamb sizes. All-in-all, I am very happy with both the quality of work completed and the time in which it was done.

Matt has done a variety of jobs for my family home in Kalamazoo over the years. Finding him about six years ago has been one of the best things that's happened to us in Kalamazoo. He seems to be able to do anything, and he does it in such good spirits that we're sorry when he leaves. The variety of things he has done is huge, and he has often responded on short notice, and been willing to at least come and look at something ASAP. He fixed a problem with our bathtub faucet which had been botched by two professional plumbers, and then declared "impossible" by a third. It took him five minutes, and he needed no new parts... he just fixed the part that was bad! Amazing. Other things he has done around our house include: rebuilding the basement stairs (on an emergency basis), repairing and painting 4 large columns on the front of our home, installing grab bars for our mother, inserting a light switch to the electrical circuit in the kitchen pantry, repairing our telephone wires, trimming our hedges and cutting down a couple of trees, and most recently installing new flooring in our bathroom which included replacing the shutoff valve and supply line and putting all new parts in the toilet. He shows up on time, he works to budget, and he smiles a lot. I have recommended Matt for several friends, and I recommend him to you without any reservations whatsoever. I just ask you not to keep him TOO busy so that he's available for us too!

Is it possible to give Matt 6 stars? Truly I found a gem through this website. I needed the impossible – a handyman who could do most anything within a very tight schedule and at a reasonable rate. Matt was willing to work evenings and weekends (at normal rates) to help me with a variety of tasks from door knobs to electrical, wall repair and painting, bathroom updates, change light fixtures, etc. I recommend his services highly.

Matt Ervin has done a variety of improvements to my home. Examples of projects he has recently completed include replacement of all doors in my home with period-appropriate hardwood doors; painting 4 rooms, including woodwork, and upgrading outlets, switches, and cover plates; installing antique light fixtures; and demolishing and re-building a bathroom to allow replacement of plumbing. Matt is flexible in working around my schedule. He is reliable and works efficiently and with excellent attention to detail. He leaves work areas clean at the end of the day. I feel extremely fortunate to have a trusted and skilled craftsperson to rely on for my home improvement projects.
