Services we offer

Handyman.I do thorough, first quality home repairs of many sorts and often can fix problems others can't. Small jobs are just fine with me. I have an extensive background and a lot of experience in all facets of repairs and, I do only quality work intended to solve the problem not just band-aid it. I try to listen to my clients needs and meet them; the result is that most of my initial customers become long-term clients. Sorry but I don't text or facebook or email--please just call: 505-883-0048

Services we don't offer

Due to wear & tear, I've had to exclude some types of work especially kneeling or repetitive things like painting a whole home; though I do some painting in the course of repairs. No work requiring kneeling for extended periods (eg. floor tile, carpet, concrete,etc.), large drywall installs or heavy lifting

It took a long time to get him to the house, as he had prior jobs, then was going out of town, then our schedules didn't match up. But once he got here he was able to address several issues the same day, and finished everything else promptly. He was professional and did a good job.
Description of Work: I had a number of small projects, including replacing some trim, reattatching a light fixture, putting new hinges on a closet door, fixing a drain. He did all of the projects in one morning, and everything is working well.

This is the second time that I have commisioned Hal to do repair in my home. On the first visit he repaired a tub faucet which I reported favorably. At that time he also gave me an estimate on replacing the back door. He gave me the measurements and details needed and recommended a local door company, Pat's Doors. ( I will make a favorable report on Pat's Doors next) I ordered the door that I wanted. When I called Hal to see when he could do the installation he was able to come on the day best for me. He is always prompt. He has great skills and can overcome house idiosyncrasies. I certainly will employ him when the need arises. Nice, friendly knowledgeable, timely and very reasonable cost. Can't ask for more.
Description of Work: Replaced the back exterior door. Repaired a copper pipe leak from main bath tub.

Hal evaluated the stucco repair needed and appeared confident that he could do the job. However, he was not able to provide the correct stucco color and duplicate the stucco texture pattern. He explained the difficulty he was having as he did the work. I wish I had known his lack of skill with stucco repair before I agreed to have him do the work. I would not recommend him for stucco repair.

I did explain in advance that there were two existing colors and that they were faded. I got as close as available colors allowed.

Hal talked to me about the project the day before he came to assess whether he could fit it in to his schedule. He maintained great communication regarding finding the location and arriving as scheduled. He did fine work, was both professional and personable. His work was important to my project and very much appreciated!

Hal did a fabulous job with minimal destruction. He was more thorough than I could have ever expected. He is very knowledgeable. We have been very pleased with the work that he performed for us. He is also helping us with some bathroom fans that have been impossible. He is very diligent and thorough and at every turn is trying to save us money with trying to use as many existing items that are still functional.
Description of Work: Hal shored up the structure of a "home made job" of a covered back porch on a home we recently purchased. He worked very hard to keep as much existing structure as possible, while replacing what was needed to make a safe and sound patio.

Hall is amazing! He assessed the drywall repair required and when he discovered a major construction mistake in one area he knew exactly what to do to remedy the situation. He explained what needed to be done as he went along and was spotless in his work. In particular, he did an incredible job of matching the ceiling paint texture so well that the repair is invisible. Hal is highly skilled, trustworthy, dependable, and professional. He sets the standard for which all others must be measured. I am very grateful to have his expertise available.

Hal was very responsive to initial contact and as the project was not an emergency, we worked on a schedule that we both agreed apon. Hal kept me informed on the plans with enough lead time that I was able to meet him and observe the work. The price was very reasonable and I am very satisfied with the experience. I'm glad I used Angie's List!!!

He did the work professionally, cheerfully, and within a very short time. I was extremely pleased with both his service and his demeanor. He arrived on time and when promised. His work was clean and his work area was completely cleaned before he left.
Description of Work: I had a leaky garbage disposal that had ruined the base cabinet flooring. He exchanged the disposal (I purchased the wrong one), replaced the leaky disposal, fixed a small leak in the dishwasher hose, and replaced the flooring in my sink base cabinet.

My initial phone contact with Hal was promptly returned. A time and date was set to look at our project. Hal arrived on time and throughout our project Hal communicated, returned phone calls and was here at the times he indicated. Our project presented some unusual problems and Hal brought in a roof expert and a stucco expert to assist on the project. Hal completed our repairs in a timely and professional manner and we would definitely do business with him again and recommend him to our friends.
Description of Work: We had a botched repair job on a flat roof/balcony which resulted in our roof continuing to leak into our garage plus our balcony had been ruined esthetically since the initial repair spring 2008. What had once been a usable balcony was after the 2008 repair an ugly roof. Hal Smith/U Fix It Repairs - took off the previous applied roofing material and replaced it, repaired damaged stucco and repainted it, repaired the cannellis, removed all debris and cleaned up thoroughly. We now have our balcony back - yes!!!
