He is excellent and I don't know what I would do without him. I especially like the fact that he is a licensed electrician and he is very good at what he does. I have yet to give him a job that he cannot do. He is a man of many talents, is very neat, and is completely reliable. I would highly recommend him to anyone and I will definitely hire him again.
Description of Work: He replaced a mail box and earlier, did a number of handyman jobs for me.

I called Joe Hersh late one afternoon and he arrived at my home promptly the very next morning and did a great job fixing the door as well as the crystal doorknob that was loose and having trouble tightening. I was totally impressed with Joe and would definitely hire him again. Thanks Joe for a job well done!

Joe is the most conscientious person I've ever had the pleasure of hiring to perform work at my house. He completed the work over 3 and a half days. Every task was flawless. He is in high demand and takes the time required to do quality work, so be patient if it takes him a few days to return calls. Joe is well worth the wait. I will absolutely hire him again the next time my house requires repairs.
Description of Work: Replaced existing kitchen and bathroom receptacles with GFCI receptacles, repaired/replaced receptacles in bedroom, installed bifold closet door in dining room, adjusted bifold closet door in bedroom, spackled/applied stain blocker/painted ceilings in 2 bathrooms, spackled/painted hallway and bedroom, installed window air conditioner in bedroom, installed 2 pairs of shutters, repaired/painted door frame.

Joe is a true professional all around. He is punctual and he produces high quality workmanship. He is responsive and will update you with current status. The best part of his workmanship is the quality of the final product. I am very happy with the way he spends time reviewing the finer details of the work.

Joe was very professional in all communication and interactions. Very detailed and super tidy and neat. He thoroughly explained the options available when determining proper wiring and operation of ceiling fans to be installed. Took a little longer than I anticipated, but didn't really know what to expect and not an electrician myself. I finally installed the ceiling fans a couple weeks later and all works as anticipated.

Joe was prompt in answering all of our phone messages and very amenable to our ideas of what and how we wanted the work performed. He is very meticulous in everything he does and leaves the work area spotless when he is finished. We plan to have him return in Spring to do some additional outside work.
Description of Work: Joe repaired a siding issue on the garage in such a fashion that it is totally undetectable. He removed a full wall mural and repainted the wall. He repaired 2 areas on the ceiling where a water leak had caused the plaster to bubble. He matched the paint color perfectly. He fixed a damaged area on the garage wall and repainted the area. He also did several other small jobs. He completed all of our work in a 2-day time frame and worked steadily each day.

Joe is fantastic! What a meticulous and great craftsman he is. We are in awe of his work and diligence. We plan to use him again, to install crown molding. Would we recommend him? Absolutely. A perfectionist and a true professional
Description of Work: Joe installed a beautiful bannister which matches our original bannister from the time our house was build circa - 1930; installed hand rails to the attic and basement, built steps and handrails to our back porch, and built an angled, lift-up wooden cellar door for my basement entrance to keep the character of our house.

Oh my God I love him! I used him 3 times. He must have hang a 100 pictures for me. I had him do really unusual things for me . He built shelves. He did this whole thing for me about the Poconos. He was up for everything. I was very organized. I had everything down. He is an electrician too. I would highly recommend him. I got him a whole day so I paid him $500 for the day. Then I just had to pay for whatever he bought that I needed. I did 3 times and I would do it again. I wait till I need him for a whole day, then I get him. I would give him 5 A's. And let me tell you something, he does research, like when I wanted him to hang my bear, he checked out the best way to hang it. He is really a good guy. He is really calm.
Description of Work: It was probably last month, I had him hang a bear.

He was prompt, clean, very professional. He cleaned up well and left nothing behind. He did a fantastic job. The screen door works better now than it did before it got torn off the house. I had landscaped across the front of the house in early spring and that is right where he had to walk to replace the shutters. He somehow managed to avoid stepping on any of the plants. I couldn't even see evidence that he walked in the soft dirt and mulch. He did a great job. I'll be calling him again as soon as I get my next list of things together.
Description of Work: He reinstalled a screen door that blew off the house in strong winds, replaced 5 sets of shutters, removed 4 old aluminum awnins and hung a large mirror.

I contacted JH Handyman Services to repair my front door frame which had extensive water damage. Joe was very responsive and came out within a few days to look over the project. Joe evaluated the condition of the door and felt that he could do a repair. The door had considerable damage but Joe came up with a gameplan for completing the repair. Joe came out to complete the work in about a week or so. I was very impressed with Joe's attention to detail as he worked at getting everything just right. The door looks perfect. Thanks to Joe I avoided having to replace the entire door, which would have been considerablly more expensive. While he was here, I asked him to do a few other minor jobs which also came out exceptionally well. Joe is very professional and is a true craftsman. I plan to use Joe in the future on a few other projects and would highly recommend him.
Description of Work: Repaired rotted front door frame and molding, fixed shed door and repaired second story vent.
