About
Rick's Handyman Service
Hi neighbors — I’m Rick. After 11 years of owning and operating a handyman business in Bergen County NJ, I recently moved to Upstate New York. Once I bought a home here and heard so many stories about handymen not showing up, taking money up front and not finishing the work, or arriving unprofessional, I decided to offer the same reliable, detail-oriented service to homeowners throughout Orange and Sullivan Counties.
I’ve built my business the old-fashioned way: through hard work, craftsmanship, and word-of-mouth from satisfied customers. From small repairs to larger home projects, I treat every home as if it were my own.
Whether you need something fixed, repaired, installed, or improved, I’m here to help and would be glad to become your go-to local handyman. Reach out to tell me about your project and we’ll find a solution that works for you.

Rick responded to my request almost immediately. I needed work done in two bathrooms. They turned out to be small jobs. However I would not have known that. Rick was honest and fixed both issues within an hour. He knows his work and explained how I could prevent issues going forward.
We will be contacting him very soon for another job. I feel confident that Rick will always be forthcoming and never try to upsell for his benefit.
Thanks to Rick. So happy we found you.

Rick was professional, easy to talk to, and quickly handled the task of uninstalling my dishwasher. I would hire him again for other handyman tasks around my home.
