Project: Hire a Handyman

"We called Handyman Matters because we had bought vertical blinds, but needed assistance with installing them on our very large front patio door/window. We spoke with Tonya, who was excellent, and they were able to schedule someone for the very next morning. The contractor arrived exactly on time. Upon arrival, he took the time to inspect the blinds and site of install even before he 'officially signed in', which I thought was very courteous considering you pay by the hour. Throughout the job he was pleasant, professional, and extremely efficient. I would certainly recommend to others, and will definitely use again."

Project: Hire a Handyman

"The job was done intelligently, competently, and reasonably quickly. The only downside was that the first carpenter who worked on the project made a time-estimate that was significantly smaller than the ultimate amount of time the project required. I did add a few items to the project partway through, but the estimate was seriously under even the original scope of the project. However, I was very pleased with the overall effectiveness of the Handyman Matters people."
