About us

Winner of the 2020 Angie's List Super Service Award, a winner nine out of the past 10 years. We are a locally owned family business supported by a national franchise company which is North America's most trusted handyman company. For more than 15 years we've consistently hired experienced, reliable craftsmen​ (not sub-contractors) who are licensed, insured, bonded and background checked. That means you'll receive consistently high quality work that is 100% guaranteed. What sets us apart​: Mr. Handyman's professionals arrive in branded uniforms and vans that are stocked with every tool they'll need for your job. Our on-time record is second to none, and we arrive ready to work. One phone call to Mr. Handyman hires professionals who complete your entire "To Do" list. Every task whether major or minor home repair is prioritized according to your needs. Rather than calling a specialist for drywall repair and another contractor for rain gutter repair, your neighbors consistently choose us for all their home improvement needs. Mr. Handyman can complete a variety of projects for you, from installing doors, to tiling your bathroom, repairing your deck and much more.

We are very disappointed, and I'm sure you are too, but your name does not come up in our system nor does your name come up in our lead base here on Angie's List. High Bridge is out of our territory and we do not specialize in air duck cleaning. As the owner of this business, our customers are everything, and even under Covid-19 we have worked diligently with a scaled back staff and made every effort to deliver for customers. I'm happy to discuss this further with you. Please provide me with your phone number or call the office after 8am.

If you had worked with us, we know you would have experience why we are NJ's #1 most positively reviewed Handyman. We've worked hard for 11 years to deliver the highest quality customer service from our responsiveness to the quality of the work our Technicians deliver. While we are not the least expensive, we are also not the most expensive. Our customer reviews are important to us and we do appreciate the feedback although without actually hiring us your feedback is not entirely accurate.

I checked our phone records and we have received one call from you on 4-27 2015 at 9AM Anne spoke with you and and during the call you needed to go into a meeting and she was told you would call back. We never heard back. We try and return every call and in this case it appears that we did. If you called more recently from a different number and we did not call back then we apologise and would like to connect with you asap. I left a message with the number we have on file.

Response from Mr. Handyman of S. Orange/Westfield/Scotch Plains & Metuchen
Thank you [Member Name Removed]! Our technicians are very talented, hard working, and polite. They know the value our clients are looking for which includes professional workmanship but also providing quality service through cleaning up after themselves, being open and transparent about the work they are performing and how best to handle often times complex issues that meet your requirements in terms of finish and cost. Wishing you a joyous holiday season!

I called them up, and they don't do estimate, to install a tile floor. base on a time quote over the phone i figure I would take a shot, because base on there hourly rate and time quote, i thought even if they went over by two hours the price was still good. When the person came to install the tile i ask he if he could look at some other stuff for me. Even with the man being there he would only give me a rough time estimate. Again i thought the price would work even if he was off by a few hours. At the end of the day I use them for approximately 20 days. I am extremely please. I will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: I am a small business owner. I am opening up a pizza shop. They basically did everything for me. They did the install of the tile floor, installed a tin ceiling, install all moldings and wainscoting. install shelves, patched the exterior siding, installed mirrors, moved some plumbing, installed some plumbing fixtures, install s light fixtures, painting for interior and exterior, install camera system, built counters, and they repair two pizza ovens for me.
