My first time using Handy, and I was very glad I did. Guillermo was on time and extremely helpful in fixing the electrical issue in my apartment. Now all my dimmers work. And for far less money than other quotes I was receiving. I highly recommend Handy to anyone who needs reliable, affordable help fixing something in their apartment.

Srikanth S.

Extremely professional and highly skilled. The task was to replace my thermostat and fit a new Nest device and David did a fine job. Highly recommend him.

James A.

Carlos was fantastic. He went above and beyond and explained my options each step of the way through. I had thrown a few different tasks his way and none of them were a problem whatsoever. Needless to say, everything is working perfectly. Very knowledgeable and personable and really great with pets which makes things SO much easier. I have three dogs who can all be a handful when barking away in the rooms with people over, but he was very friendly and the dogs calmed down immediately and settled in which I think as a pet owner says a lot... Highly recommend him for anything you may need - will be using him again without question!

Fiona C.

Mohammed was very prompt, informed and thorough. I would have no hesitation in asking him for assistance again.

Noorjahan D.

Enrique was excellent! He was efficient and made sure to reach out beforehand so that he brought everything needed for the electrical work. I thought I would need an entirely new dryer and with a quick rewiring, he fixed it! Would recommend him to everyone!
