Cris worked very carefully painting our ceiling, walls, and tons of trim. I also appreciated how quietly he worked. I will definitely use him again for future projects!

Cris the Handyman was professional, affordable, punctual and did a good job replacing the two old pressure gauges in my basement pipes and fixing my bathroom shower problem. He arrived on time, explained the problems clearly, go out to buy the parts, kept me informed throughout the process and finished the job quickly. Now, there's no leaking on my new gauges and shower works perfectly. I will definitely call Cris the Handyman for future projects and recommend him to anyone who are looking for a reliable and affordable handyman.

Details: Less than 2 hours (Simple tasks) • Maintenance • Basement • Plumbing • Home

Cris was very professional and helpful in bringing my vision to life. I needed to add two more shelves above my washing machines to maximize my space. I ran ideas by him and he gave me pros/cons for each one which helped me make a final decision. I also added a last minute task which was to help put in all of my large window screens (15-20) and he had his partner tackle that while he got his supplies for my laundry area project. Highly recommend!!!

Details: 2 - 5 hours (A few different projects) • Installation • Assembly • Closet • Windows • Shelving • Home
