About
Hello, My name is John Korinek, the proud owner and operator of Handy Hero. Though new to this platform, I have kept regular residential and commercial customers exceedingly pleased for the past few years through my dedication to their projects and prompt service toward their needs. Life has given me wide range of professional experience to make sure every step of your project, big or small, is completed with the highest of quality standards in a reasonable amount of time. I do a lot of larger projects like my featured project for Ms. Wolfe or my ongoing work for Chip Theory Games, however, I cannot stress enough how much I love scheduling smaller tasks too. I do what I do because I have skills that makes people happy, and ultimately I just like seeing people smile. The pictures I have uploaded, and the reviews I have requested from previous/current clients include the following work and/or work with specific materials: (as a legal disclaimer, I am not a licensed electrician or plumber, however I have many years of experience, and will turn down any work outside of my capabilities) demo, subfloor, farming, insulation, plumbing, electrical, networking, drywall, tape and mud, plaster, microcement, onyx, painting, wood flooring, vinyl plank flooring, tile, epoxy floors, epoxy countertops, custom trim, doors, cabinetry, base molding, window casing, crown molding, appliance installation, lighting, concrete pathways, decks of all kinds, parking out wooded backyards, and I am sure I am missing a few things... Many are blown away by how much I can do for them, and how quickly it can be done, thus I encourage you to look through my pictures of work completed in just the past 2 years. Though most of which were not professionally shot, you should come away with the understanding that whether your style is tradition, modern, or something more creative, we will find the exact feel you are looking for.

What more could you want in a handyman? He assessed the repairs I needed, explained what was going on, and offered me choices of how to do them. He handled woodwork, painting, and even meticulously cleaned the interior of a storm window before reattaching it. He let me know what other kinds of projects he could handle without upselling or pressure. He cleaned up after the job and offered a fair price for his work. I will definitely be using John’s services again.

Handy hero was able to install a dog door intended for a full width exterior door and modify it so that it fit my storm door. He arrived at a time that worked for me and didn’t overstay the hour he estimated the project would take, and he gave me helpful tips for how to weather proof it myself, which saved me some extra money.

John helped us with a smaller bathroom project. He did great work and was efficient. We have other miscellaneous house projects that we will have John complete for us. Definitely recommend!
