Description of Work: These folks are great. The gentleman came promptly, gave me an estimate, showed up on time and did absolutely fabulous drywall work, including getting computer-matched paint so that I could avoid repainting two walls and a very large ceiling area. He worked non-stop for over four hours without a break and I never had the sense that he was rushing, even though it turns out that he had another job after mine, which did not end until 4 PM. Highly recommended. They are coming again this week to give me an estimate on painting my front door. This will be my go-to company in the future.

Description of Work: After measurements were taken during estimate, Michael came with the materials and shelved the garage and a storage room. The job was completed timely and to a high standard. The labor quoted of $440 is what we paid plus the cost of materials (for which receipts were provided). I would recommend Jim the Handyman and would not hesitate to use their services in the future.
