About us

What is it about us that distinguishes us from the competition? We are locally owned and operated, with the benefit of being part of an international franchise. This is also a benefit to our customers because we are familiar with local codes, customs, and practices and we exchange best practices and ideas with all the other Handyman Matters franchises. With the additional benefit of a system-wide database composed of over 400,000 completed jobs, we can provide our customers with accurate estimates over the phone in most cases. Using our time-plus-materials business model, we inform our customers up front of what they can expect to pay and give them the opportunity to schedule an appointment for a specific time at their convenience. One phone call and one appointment and your job is completed.

Description of Work: Replaced three doors. I bought the doors separately and Handyman installed. The cost turned out higher than anticipated. If I had to do over again I may have just contracted with lowes to do the installation. One big plus is Handman's one year guarantee on their work. After a winter of expansion and contraction they came to readjust the doors. They have excellent customer service.

Description of Work: I called and discussed painting of a new deck overhaul. Got a quote that was in range with others, so agreed to engage them. After that, I could never get them to return a call when they said, and never got a schedule. I called them three times, and got return promises - none kept. I went to the next contractor on my list and got the job done in three days. These folks called while the other contractor was painting, and were reasonably professional when I explained that they were not going to do the job. It is great that these people have so much business that they don't need to do what they say, but I'm not interested in this kind of bad service.

We are somewhat confused by this review. The Customer called us on July 14th and we offered to do the job on the 16th, to which he said was too soon. We followed up with phone messages to him with no calls back. When we reached him the the 21st he let us know someone else was doing it.

Description of Work: My husband and I have just joined the 20th and 21st century! We no longer have to wash dishes by hand because our Handyman Matters handyman installed a dishwasher for us (which we bought and had ready at time of service.) Our friendly handyman did an excellent job and we were ready to load the dishwasher by the time he left.

gutter repair, handyman service

Description of Work: Added a downspout to existing gutter. Looks good, matches perfectly. |Worker was great (professional, fast, and neat). Only possible negative to experience was that I went over project and directed them to online pics to ascertain info about project (location, color, size). Was quoted based on that information, but when worker arrived, he was unaware of information I discussed with staff. He had to go and purchase the materials and Handyman Matters charges by the hour. Much of the time paid for was travel and procurement. Would prefer to pay by the hour for just labor and projects at actual house.

Description of Work: located and patched a leak in our roof. Very informative, told us exactly what he was doing and looking for and how he would fix the leak. It wasn't as bad as we thought and he also told us our roof was in good condition and did not need replaced, which was comforting to us. We were impressed with his honesty and would definitely use them again for other jobs around the house.

We never scheduled an appointment with this Customer. We asked them to email some photos to us and never heard from them. I won't say that it's impossible for us to miss an appointment, but we do have a 3 step process for scheduling our Craftsmen and getting them onsite.

Description of Work: This is the third time I had Handy Man Matters out. I was very pleased with their service with everything but my garbage disposal. The handyman came out and was ready to take out the dishwasher to look at the wiring for the garbage disposal. I was concerned with this so I told him to not do that and we will have someone else look at it.
