I had a great experience with Eric. He was punctual, hardworking, and very honest, and it was clear he takes pride in the quality of his work. He helped me with several projects around my home, including fixing bathroom fixtures, installing a universal TV bracket, and putting together a tower shelf. Everything was done carefully and correctly. I also really appreciated that he offered to come back and help with other projects he has experience with. I’ll absolutely be calling him again and highly recommend him!

Joshua and Alicia did a very professional job installing our new backsplash. They ran into a few obstacles, but with patience they worked around them and produced a beautiful finished product for us. They were very meticulous and precise in their artistry. They cleaned up after their work and left our house in perfect shape. I would highly recommend them for any tiling project!

From Penny, who mistakenly left this review on the wrong page: “ Eric did a very professional job installing overhead shelving in our garage. He researched the project and took his time to do the job right. He arrived on time and worked hard on the project. He cleaned up afterwards and left no debris.
We are very pleased with his work and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a handyman.”

Eric was very responsive, on time and did excellent work! He spent time outside of the job figuring out how to fix something he had not done before. Friendly and would definitely hire him again! Thank you!

Prompt and honest responses. We didn't end up working together because my needs we out of scope, but when I do have a job in his wheelhouse, I'm definitely going to him first.

Eric is very responsive and willing to learn things he hasnt done before coming to do the job ~ such as replacing a window sash cord. He also finished some trim work and repaired drywall. Great attitude, on time, good work skills, friendly! I will reach out to him for more work to be done in the future.
