About
🔧 Reliable Handyman & Furniture Assembly Pro in State College, PA and 30 miles around.
Looking for someone who shows up on time, gets the job done right, and treats your home like his own? That’s me. I’m the guy neighbors call when they need help with furniture assembly, wall repairs, painting, drywall, or general home fixes.
✅ Fast, detail-oriented, and friendly
✅ From IKEA puzzles to custom jobs — I’ve done it all
✅ Small jobs welcome (because little things make a big difference)
✅ Clear communication, fair pricing, no surprises
Whether it’s putting together a tricky furniture set, fixing a wall, or giving a fresh coat of paint — I bring the skills and tools so you can relax and enjoy the results.
Please note:
I do not provide moving services or heavy lifting. Large, heavy items (such as treadmills, gym equipment, or oversized boxes) must already be placed in the room where the work will be done.
I’m happy to handle furniture assembly and light items that can be carried in manageable parts as part of the job.
Your home deserves a handyman who cares. Let’s make it look and work better — one project at a time.

Great problem solving and attention to detail. We had water damage on a drywall, and we are very happy with the repair. I’d gladly have him back for other project.

Always quick to respond to questions. Very happy with the painting he did for us. Arrived on time and always cleaned up afterwards. Would definitely recommend him to any one who needs indoor or outdoor painting done!

We had such a great experience working with Rustem. Small business and you can really tell they care about the quality of their work and their customers. Communication was excellent from the beginning, and he stopped by very soon after inquiry for us to receive an estimate. Everything was explained thoroughly via messages, including the different cost options, which made it easy to decide what worked best for us.
They were incredibly flexible with scheduling, respectful of our home, and worked quickly without sacrificing quality. Our living room, foyer & adjoining hallways were painted within days and looks great! It was so nice working directly with people who were reliable, communicative, and genuinely easy to work with. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely reach out again for future painting projects!
Details: Home • 1 room • Walls • Trim • Ceiling • Doors • Window frames • 10 - 14 feet (high ceiling) • Repainting, with a color change • Fair - minor holes and scratches • Homeowner or property manager • No, this is not new construction • No, I will move things out of the way myself • Owner

I hired for two exterior doors to be installed. One needed adjusting to very thick walls, second door had rotted wood. Rustem had to remove the siding to finish the job. I also hired to paint my big room and what a great job!!! Worth every penny! Excellent with communication and showing up on time!
Details: Home • 1 room • Walls • Window frames • Under 8 feet (low ceiling) • Repainting, with same color • Excellent - clean and smooth • Homeowner or property manager • No, this is not new construction • Yes, I would like the painter to help move things

He’s halfway through a job to widen our refrigerator space and if the first half is any indication we are going to be quite pleased with the results. I came to him with a budget and he did everything to stay at it which was so nice and considerate for us. He’s also punctual and his work is top notch. He’s coming back on Thursday to finish so I may need to update review with the finished project details but like I said the way it’s going we feel like we are gonna be very happy with the results. 100% would recommend.
Details: 2 - 5 hours (A few different projects) • Kitchen • Walls (inside) • Home

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is straightforward and depends on the scope of work. I offer clear estimates before starting. Small repairs are usually billed as a service call or hourly, while larger jobs are quoted separately. Materials are typically not included unless discussed in advance.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Usually, I start with a quick message or call to understand the job. Then I ask for photos or schedule a visit if needed. After that, I provide an estimate and timeline. Once approved, I complete the work and make sure everything is done properly before finishing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My experience comes from hands-on work and real projects. I’ve worked on painting, drywall, repairs, and general home maintenance. I focus on learning by doing and improving with every project to deliver better results.
