Joel is awesome! Kept in touch with me throughout the booking process. Did an outstanding job assembling my treadmill. A real friendly guy! It was a pleasure having him in our home. If/when I need another handy man I will definitely call Joel! It's been a pleasure!

Joel did an excellent job mounting my TV. He was professional, efficient, and made sure everything was level and secure. He also kept the area clean and was careful with the setup. I’m really happy with the result and would definitely recommend him

Joel from The HandyVan was fantastic! He came out on Monday to hang our 75” TV and soundbar, along with multiple shelves, artwork, and other items. He was extremely friendly, professional, and efficient — he tackled our entire 20+ item list with ease and made the whole process look effortless. We’re thrilled with how everything turned out! Highly recommend Joel and will absolutely use him again for any future mounting or hanging needs.
