Pretty Awesome Guy

John has worked on several jobs for us including installing flooring in our basement, repairing drywall, building steps at our side door, etc. He responds in a timely manner, communicates clearly and does an exceptional job. But, best of all, he is lovely to have around. The kids adore him and his funny stories, and the adults as well : ) A round of applause goes to John for being a pretty handy and pretty awesome guy.

Bathroom floor replacement

We initially contacted John because he is local and has excellent reviews here.

Great communication from the start. He came over promptly for an estimate and gave us good advice on what flooring material to pick up ahead of time.

He showed up as scheduled for the job, which involved removing the toilet and baseboards, replacing the flange, trimming and installing the vinyl tiles, installing new baseboards, silicone caulking, painting the baseboards and trim, and reinstalling the toilet. He provided all the materials (except the tiles which we selected and bought), and cleaned everything up when he was finished.
The whole job was done in a day, and looks great.

Were very satisfied, and will be contacting him again for future jobs. Highly recommended.

Best Handy Guy Around

John is a great handy guy. We have had him do several jobs in our home and have been very happy. He responds promptly, provides a clearly stated quote so there are no surprises, shows up when he says he will and finishes the tasks in a timely fashion. His work quality is excellent and he is pleasant to have around. We highly recommend John!

Drywall repair

John did some drywall repair for us in 3 different rooms. All the areas look brand new. He even added a removable cover to a hole that needed to be left for access to an outside water valve - nice touch. John is very courteous and friendly. I got some travel suggestions, and he discovered an old piggy bank from a product promotion, that my wife has on a shelf, that he had as a child. Will definitely be calling John in the future for further jobs.

Not just a pretty handy guy, but a pretty great guy too!

John has done 2 jobs for us, and if we could afford it we would have him here full time. Not only is John excellent at what he does, he is also a person that you can trust to have in your home. He did a fantastic job on some major drywall repair, trim install, painting, interior door installs, and he built some great storage shelves in our basement. John is very good at what he does, and above all else he is truly a pretty great guy....he's also funny, he would be horrified if I didn't mention funny ;)

Hey Melissa. I'm actually horrified you didn't mention pretty. It's even in the company name. lol. Seriously though it was a huge treat to work at your home. Thoroughly enjoyed our conversations and your hospitality as well. Hope I can help out with future projects.

Dining bench and miscellaneous

Highly recommend Johns handyman services. He was professional, timely, and did a beautiful job with our dining bench and numerous other smaller, finicky tasks around the house. He was able to be independent in decision making and problem solving when needed and provided insights, which we found especially helpful as first time home owners. We look forward to working with John again in future.
