Ruben and his crew were super easy to work with! Very professional and expedient! They did a great job repairing drywall, touch up painting, and even came back to help remove some junk and blow in insulation! He even helped winterize the water spigots! Highly recommend!

Ruben maintained communication thru out the job. He did the job in a timely manner for both my house and my moms place. I will use him as needed in the future and recommend his services to friends and family.
Thanx!

I can't say enough good things about Rueben's Handyman Service. He came out to repair my ceiling and exceeded my expectations. Top quality work, very reasonable pricing, and he was friendly and professional the entire time.
It's hard to find someone who is both a great guy and a great worker, but Rueben is both. I will definitely be using him again for any handyman work around the house.

Ruben and José completed major construction on my first house and now my second house. He recently remodeled our entire kitchen, flooring for half the house, and knocked out a load bearing wall and added a support beam. They even were willing to add in extra cabinetry and electrical. Ruben and José were super professional in communication and always updated us on progress. The quality of the work is over and beyond what we could have ever imagined for our space. It feels like we have a whole new house for a very fair price. We HIGHLY recommend Ruben’s handyman services!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing varies on every job. I really can't give a price for unseen work to be done. It is difficult to price jobs that might have unforseen issues. I like to go to the job site and conduct a thourough analysis; All my estimates are free of charge.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
During the meet and greet, I like to see exactly what they need/want done. I listen to the details on whatever they want. I make suggestions on materials or products that I know are good. I give free estimates on the spot; if it's not too complicated. If it's too complicated, I'll take pictures, take measurements and do my research to give the customer the best possible price. Sometimes I will give multiple prices based off of quality and types of materials.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have worked in all aspects of construction, to include: framing, drywall, plumbing, electrical, flooring, roofing, painting, and even landscaping. My most recent job was for a roofing company.
