About
With 15 years of experience as a one-person handyman business, I treat every project as if I’m working on my own home. I’m not just focused on finishing the job—I’m committed to doing it right.
I specialize in fan installation, lighting installation, TV mounting, and plumbing fixtures such as toilets, sinks, faucets, and garbage disposals. I take pride in careful, hands-on work and the satisfaction of seeing a job done well.
I also genuinely enjoy helping people and building lasting relationships with my customers. If you’re looking for reliable, detail-oriented work from someone who cares about your home, I’d be happy to help with your next project.

Highly recommend The Good Samaritan Handyman! They replaced our garbagedisposal, and the entire experience was excellent. Communication was amazing from start to finish—they were responsive, professional, and kept us informed throughout the process. The service was great, and the quality of the work was excellent. Everything was handled quickly and professionally, and we couldn’t be happier with the result.
We’ll definitely be using them again for future projects around the house!

Neil was very easy to work with and has expertise in lots of areas. He installed tape lighting, faucets and new light switches. Everything turned out great.

Neal did an excellent job of wall mounting 2 TV's. One above fireplace mantle and one on wall of a guest bedroom. I will be using him for future projects - next for Installation of ceiling fans in 2 different rooms. He also diagnosed an issue with an existing ceiling fan in the living area as needing a capacitor replacement.

I would pick all five qualities above if I could. Neil’s workmanship is exceptional and priced where an everyday working person like my husband and myself are able to afford to get things repaired that need to be.
this means a lot because keeping up with a home as we all know is very expensive.
Thanks for the great work, Neil! The Darrow’s
Details: Replacement of existing lighting • 2-4 lights • Under 8 feet (low ceiling) • Indoors • Existing property • House

The Good Samaritan did a great job installing a ceiling fan and dining room light. He also gave me some tips on how to fix a door handle that was wearing down. I would definitely hire him again.
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is not the cheapest, nor the most expensive. I do good work, so I don't lowball. I also want to be reasonable, and since I dont have a storefront , my overhead allows me to keep prices down. I also have a 72 hr cancelation window fee of $35.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I bid on their lead. If they accept it, I schedule the project. It's not rocket science. And then threat them as a friend
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have nearly 20 years on the job experience. I've been with Thumbtack over 7 years with over 130 5 star reviews. I treat people well, and I know they respect that
