So far Phil has replaced my hot water heater and put in a new light by my front door. I plan to have Phil hide cabling for a TV, mount security cameras, fix an issue with my skylight, build a storage cube, replace some two prong receptacles with three prong and patch my front steps. Phil has given me suggestions that have reduced the amount of outlay for materials. His advice and expertise has helped keep the cost of various small projects reasonable. I plan to use Phil for my handyman needs going forward.

Details: I need help with many long-term or complex projects, approximately a full day of work • Repairs • Installation • Assembly • Living room • Bedroom • Deck or porch • Electrical • Residential • I'm ready to hire the right handyman based on price & fit

I live in Portland, OR and had an emergency in our aunt's house in Bridgeport, PA. She is in a nursing home. I emailed and left my phone number and Phil contacted me immediately regarding the problem. He is a life saver! It was nice to get great service and customer understanding from a professional such as Phil Forester. He remedied the water leak and provided options to secure the home. Great work! Aces! #1!

Phil is a true artisan! I had various projects around the condo that I needed help with. To start, Phil hung my artwork on the walls that were concrete. Phil is very skilled and knowledgable in many things pertaining to home maintenance and upkeep. I also wanted to replace my closet doors, but he suggested that they could be repaired and he fixed them instead of me replacing them and saved me hundreds of dollars in replacement costs. I have hired Phil to hang my tv on the wall and there are many other projects I have planned for Phil to assist me with. Please contact him, I highly recommend him. Anita T.

Details: 6 - 10 • No, none of my items are more than 6 ft long or weigh more than 20 pounds • Ladder not required • Concrete • Residential

Great experience with Phil. He installed a mailbox post and mailbox while it was raining. It was pretty nasty outside, I was surprised he still wanted to come. He is a professional and knew exactly what he was doing. More jobs to come.

Details: Less than 2 hours (Simple tasks) • Installation • Home
