About
I founded Manhattan Home Solutions because I wanted to share my skills and bring a higher standard to the kind of work people rely on at home.
With a background in the heavy civil marine engineering industry, I approach every home installation service with commercial-grade discipline— secure execution and clear communication from start to finish.
I previously earned Pro status on Thumbtack and I’m now reactivated after time away, rebuilding my profile with new reviews.
Share a few details about your project (photos are best) what are you looking to accomplish? so I can review it and recommend the best solution with clear pricing and scheduling ahead of time.
Thank you for choosing Manhattan Home Solutions

Darwin was fantastic to work with and exceeded expectations. We had a fairly complicated large painting to both installhanging hardware and then fix to the wall and he did so effortlessly. He even offered to come earlier than scheduled because a prior job finished up, which worked out great for my schedule. Would highly recommend!
Thank you for the review Ben, pleasure working with you guys. Glad I was able to assist!

Darwin was great! He responded super quick, offered to come earlier if I wanted, and put up my frames exactly how I wanted. Couldn’t recommend more.

Manhattan Home Solutions fully met my expectations and the job of dismantling/installing window shades (which were very complicated and a tight fit given the space). Thank you!

My tenant had an issue while I’m out of town. I was able to schedule an appointment with Darwin very quickly for a reasonable flat rate. He showed up on time and resolve the issue quickly. My tenant was happy with the work.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is structured to be fair, predictable, and efficient. NYC projects often include real time outside of the work itself travel, access, project logistics. So I use a clear minimum and confirm the total up front once I review the details. That way you get professional execution without surprises, and I can commit the right amount of time to do the job properly. If anything will affect pricing (scope changes, wall/surface conditions, specialty hardware, or building requirements), it’s communicated before we begin.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
You share a few details about the project (photos help), and I confirm the best approach, pricing, and an appointment window. On-site, I verify the scope before starting, complete the work cleanly and efficiently, and communicate clearly if anything changes. After completion, I confirm everything is finished to standard and provide the final invoice.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’m a 10+ year veteran in the heavy civil marine industry , with ongoing, intensive training throughout the year focused on safety, precision, and proper installation standards. That experience also includes strong project-management habits—planning work efficiently, communicating clearly, staying organized, and delivering high-quality results on schedule.
