Niles R.

Leon and his helper did an amazing job hanging my pretty heavy mirror. He remounted the mollies in the wall to handle the weight since mine were a little small. I would use him again for any of my handymen needs.

Meghan D.

Marlon arrived late due to a previous project but let us know he would be late. He brought an assistant to help mount our cabinet shelf and installed it in a level and secure manner.

Tom J.

Mohammed did an amazing and thorough job. He brought all the tools needed and was very easy to talk to.

Brian A.

Went out of his way to make sure the job was done right. Made a few trips to the hardware store even. Good guy!

Gabriel H.

Sean did an amazing job mounting my mirror to a concrete wall. Great communication and service. Highly recommended.

Shining T.

Hamed did great work for my home, very patient with dealing with ad hoc situation - for example, my wall curves out and he adjusted the length of the nails to fit my shelf to the curvature. He also offered to help me take out the boxes at the end of it and is very nice and professional through out the process. I would definitely recommend him and book him againz

Tom J.

Mohammed was very professional and polite. He came with his own tools, grabbed more out of his car when he needed to. He finished hanging the shelves quickly. A++

Scott E.

Leon went far above and beyond in assisting us with our move in needs. He was professional, nice and talented. I highly recommend his work

Johanna D.

Minazur did an excellebt job- was very responsive from days before our appointment to make sure we had everything needed. Very professional.

Angie N.

There are no words to describe what an AMAZING job Carlos did hanging up my gallary wall. It is an absolute work of art. Carlos is extremely professional and goes out of his way to make his customers happy. He is a perfectionist with his work and that is something I really appreciate. I would absolutely recommend him to everyone!
