I recently hired Christian for a few home improvement tasks including TV wall mounting, Costco sun shade installation, and setting up Ring security cameras—and I couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. The quality of work was outstanding—everything was done with precision and care. The TV was mounted securely and at the perfect height, the shades were installed neatly, and the security cameras were set up efficiently with great attention to detail. What stood out most was the value for money. The pricing was very fair for the quality of service provided, and there were no hidden costs or surprises. Above all, Christian was punctual, courteous, and clearly knowledgeable about the work. He took the time to explain things, answered all my questions, and made sure I was completely satisfied with the results. Highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled handyman!

Above and Beyond Service – Highly Recommend! I had the pleasure of working with this handyman who truly exceeded expectations. From start to finish, he approached the repairs with care, precision, and a genuine commitment to doing the job right!!. It’s rare to find someone who takes that kind of pride in their work these days. He didn’t cut corners or rush through the tasks. Instead, he made sure every detail was addressed and went the extra mile to ensure everything was solid, safe, and finished to the highest standard. His professionalism, honesty, and workmanship have absolutely earned my trust. I’ll be calling him for all of my future service needs—and recommending him to anyone who asks. Outstanding work!

Cristian communicated with me before coming to make sure he understood exactly what I wanted. He was on time ready to start. He hung curtains rods for me, straight. And also, attached my bookcases to the wall and moved the solar panel to get more sun. We are in our middle 70’s and unable to do these things. He is skilled at more than just the small jobs he did for us. I highly recommend Cristian from River Plate Handyman & Design. Hire him for your jobs. You will be glad you did. Adrien-Kyle TX
