Korac came to our house and provided a good estimate for the work we needed done. He was able to come the next day and spent the appropriate time to get the items done. I would definitely use Handy Neighbor again.

Hired on Thumbtack
I had a bathroom ceiling light fixture detach and hang by the wires, and he responded quickly and handled everything professionally. He inspected the junction box, secured the fixture properly, and made sure everything was safe and solid before leaving. The light now sits perfectly flush and looks great. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and explained what he was doing. I would definitely hire him again for any work.
Nik was a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive and attentive to the request I had. Not only was he reasonably priced, he completed a quality job timely and made sure the area he worked in was clean and tidy. He is very knowledgeable about project and handyman topics and we even discussed additional jobs I am planning on completing. His honesty, professionalism, willingness, and attention to detail is something you don’t see much of but you will not go wrong with working with Nik. I definitely will be contacting him again in the very near future. Thank you Nik for your help! It is a blessing to still have honest trustworthy individuals you can count on!

Nikola was awesome! He was so patient with scheduling and had great communication with me. He was up front about cost, and was in and out with a perfectly executed project. I will definitely hire him again for other things around our house!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Most small projects are priced either hourly or as a flat rate, depending on the scope. We always explain the pricing before starting any work.
No hidden fees!
Materials are discussed in advance (included when agreed, otherwise billed at cost).
Minimum service charge may apply for very small jobs to cover travel and setup.
Discounts may be available for neighbors, repeat customers, or multiple projects completed during the same visit.
If additional work is requested after the job starts, we’ll confirm pricing before proceeding.
Our goal is simple: fair pricing, clear communication, and quality work you can trust!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We keep the process simple and neighbor-friendly.
Initial contact – You reach out through Thumbtack, and we respond quickly to understand what you need.
Details & photos – For many small jobs, photos and a short description are enough to provide an estimate.
Clear estimate – We explain pricing and scope upfront before any work begins.
Scheduling – Once approved, we schedule a time that works for you.
Get the job done – We show up on time, bring our own tools, protect your space, and focus on quality work.
Final walkthrough – We review the completed work with you and make sure you’re satisfied before wrapping up.
Communication is key throughout the process. Our goal is to make home repairs and small projects easy, transparent, and stress-free.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an engineering degree and bring an engineering mindset to my work, combined with years of hands-on experience in residential projects. That means I focus on understanding how things are built, how systems interact, and how to fix issues the right way — not just the fastest way.
Along with formal education, I’ve completed a wide range of home repairs, installations, painting, light carpentry, and property maintenance work. I follow manufacturer guidelines, proven building practices, and applicable local requirements, and I use professional-grade tools to deliver consistent, quality results.
This combination of technical thinking and practical experience helps ensure durable, well-thought-out solutions for each project.
