Larry was everything you would want out of an honest, straight shooting, "if it were my home" handyman. Will for sure recommend to others and use his services again in the future.

As a Realtor it is very important to me that the people I refer to my clients and to my friends are professional, knowledgeable, personable and have high ethics. It is a refection on me if I give out that referral. At the top of my list is Larry with Preferred Handyman Services! He goes above and beyond in every way possible. Larry is one of the most ethical people I know and his work is exemplary. If something is not within his realm of expertise or if he feels the job best be handeled in a different way, he will refer you to someone who he feels is better suited for the job. His fee's are resonable and his workmanship is always up to the highest of standards. I myself have used his services many times over the years and everyone of my clients and friends who have hired him have nothing but great reviews.

I have used Larry twice back in 2016 and 2017 and gave him excellent reviews because he does excellent work. I emailed him a couple months ago about replacing my bathroom vanity. One of the very first things he said when he called was "oh, you thought I was expensive". On my first review of him I gave a "C" on price, C = average as far as I know and I thought that was fair since he was more expensive than some I researched (and very few qualified handymen have A prices to me - maybe because I'm not wealthy.) But after that research I CHOSE HIM because of his reviews and qualifications. When I paid him, I NEVER squawked about the price or rolled my eyes - he did a great job installing a new security front door. Then a few months later I chose him AGAIN to install two more security doors and make a pass through door from my carport shed out to the back yard. He made a comment beforehand suggesting maybe I wanted to get some more quotes since I gave him a "C" on price. My reply was that I was very happy with his work and I felt I got what I paid for and was good with that. So when I contact him for THIRD job and the very first thing is a comment on how I think he's expensive, I was a little put off. But I texted him some pictures of the vanity as HE asked and he never responded (I thought maybe he didn't know who sent them but we had just talked about it the day before). I was going to reach out again to him but decided not to. I explained and stood by my original review (which again, was overall an A), not once but twice; I will not defend it again, and if he can't get over that from 2016 after my using him twice then I'd have to give him a "D" on professionalism. I DO recommend his work but beware if you give him anything less than A's all around.

Response from Preferred Handyman Services LLC
Good morning, First, thank you for your review. A variety of feedback is important to me. While I always strive to earn an "A", I realize that that variety will sometimes produce a different rating. Both times that I did work for you, you commented on the price I charge. I try to listen to what people are saying and respond accordingly. I understand that people look for different things and, on occasion, recommend another contractor if it seems the fit might not be there. This might relate to work outside of my skill set, a job I think someone can do a good job for less money; water heater replacement, patio door rollers, etc., or if I cannot meet their timeline. I try to offer quality, integrity, and value. Most of my customers feel they get all three. I don't remember receiving your pictures and am sorry for not responding. I am sorry you mistook my sincere referral to get other quotes for a lack of professionalism. I would rather refer a customer to someone else than have them unhappy with my service. As you can see by other reviews, professionalism is important to me. Larry

Mr Larry Goldstein met us at our home on time. He was courteous, friendly, extremely knowledgeable and honest.
Description of Work: Mr Goldstein came to our home and repaired a few items- outlets, sliding doors and water faucet. He also recommended a VAST array of helpful services as well as knowledge. He also saved me over $100 by encouraging me to follow up with a previous service which was incorrect/dishonest. I HUGHLY recommend Mr Goldstein and his reviews are what made me chose him in the first place! THANK YOU Mr Goldstein and hope we use your services again!

I cannot recommend Larry Goldstein highly enough. He came on the same day I called, repaired my botched installation and didn't even want to charge me! Insane! I did manage to talk him into taking something. This company will be my go-to outfit for handyman stuff from now on.

Once on site, Larry Goldstein took on an additional task of re-installing a loose bracket on curtain rod of my living room vertical blinds. All work was done in about 90 minutes. Very clean and professional work. Wish I had found this Handyman Service a long time ago. I will hire again!

As always, Larry’s work is the best! He goes above and beyond any set standard by double checking his work, making sure the work is exactly what you want, and cleaning up the area so you can’t tell that he was even there! If there is a standard above professional, then Larry would be there!

Larry did a great job. He was honest, knowledgeable and very neat and meticulous. He helped us through the process of remodeling and made it an easy process. I would definitely recommend him for all types of jobs. He was concerned about doing the job right and was very accommodating to our schedule. He was prompt and always arrived when he said he would. I would highly recommend Preferred Handyman services.

I highly recommend Larry for any tile work! He was responsive to my initial request and follow up email communications and was very patient while my wife and I selected the tile and grout color we wanted (over 3 months). Larry carefully went over different options and gave helpful suggestions. He thoroughly explained process of how to do it in case I wanted to try on my own including the demolition, which he said was fairly straightforward but time consuming, which could save him time and me money! He is also very sociable and made a personal connection and seemed genuinely interested in this relatively small job, which most tile companies would refuse. He was 20 minutes late for the job but let me know he was running late. Overall I was very pleased with the quality of his workmanship, which he completed under budget, and very appreciative of him explaining different options so we got the best product in the end.
Description of Work: Custom tile work to replace tile along two sliding patio doors. We chose a mosaic tile pattern that was more intricate. The slope to the patio made our original design concept more challenging to implement.

We have utilized Larry Goldstein of Preferred Handyman Services multiple times over the past few months after he was recommended by a neighbor. Larry has completed a variety of projects for us. He has a wide range of skills and his attention to detail is refreshing. He does a great job communicating about what he is doing and the cost for his services. If a requested service is beyond the scope of the services Larry provides, he is good about providing a referral to a reputable contractor. We highly recommend Larry for anyone’s handyman needs.

Larry showed up with a positive attitude and work ethic. Through previous communication the first priority was to just come in and inspect the target areas to see if we would be able to install there. The first two spots were a definite no go, which is what I expected. We went to spot 3 and we felt we may be able to get it to work. However Larry was a little hesitant based on the size of the door and the spacing between studs. He actually went into great detail regarding some of the work involved but he actually had a great information based on experience with his own dogs regarding the dog doors and I think the door I originally purchased was too big. He then explained exactly what I would need to do to install the door myself. He went so far as to just test the electrical circuit near the area so I would know if there would be a wire somewhere in there. After that he said I could call him anytime if I ran into issues and had questions. While the work I had intended for him was not done, Larry was beyond professional. Everything was explained so even someone with limited experience would know exactly what he was talking about. He treats you very well. You can be sure that he is on my speed dial for the next time I need a handyman for items around the house. I highly recommend him!!!
Description of Work: I called Larry with the need to install a through the wall dog door. I am handy to a point but based on areas where I would like the door, I felt it was best to bring in the professional.

Larry is without question the most professional, the most organized, the most skilled, the most knowledgeable person I ever met that can do such a wide variety of technical jobs providing the best results in every situation. During the time he works, he maintains the most pleasant bearing and is never bothered by someone asking questions about what he is doing. He is without a doubt the best handyman in Phoenix if not in Arizona!
Description of Work: Today's work included the removal and installation of a toilet, the removal and installation of a ceiling fan, the programming of two garage door openers, the repair of a picture frame and hanging the picture, and correcting the mounts and installing new mounts for hanging a Japanese Katana (a long sword).
