Testimonials

Hear what some of our customers have to say about Handyman Matters!

• Hi Joe, I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that Andy did a great job on my bathroom remodel. I really appreciated the fact that he completed the job on time and always left my condo clean after he was done working. He was very professional and pleasant and didn’t seem to get frustrated when the project didn’t go quite as expected. Thank you again and I will be recommending Handyman Matters to neighbors, friends and colleagues if they are in the need of services. I was very satisfied with the quality and completeness of the work. You will hear from me again when I want to have another project taken care of.

• “Your craftsman was very knowledgeable. He worked well with me and took everything out of my hands. He really simplified things. I also wanted to let you know the rates were 5x cheaper than what Mr. Handyman quoted for the same job!”

  Rick Peterson

• Y'all recently completed work on the kitchen of my house. I just wanted to say thanks to all parties for the job that was just completed. As you may remember, we had problems with a couple of different companies prior to contacting you. We're so relieved to finally not only have a kitchen we can use, but also a kitchen that we (especially Ruby) like to walk into. I appreciate efforts from all parties on your end -- from rushing to get us an estimate, to working around rain and dealing with our 55-yr-old walls, to Jill taking time at the end to explain how we were charged. I'll be sure to get something posted to Angie's list once we get through visits from both our sets of parents and Ruby's German Aunt and Uncle (it's going to be a busy weekend). Please pass along our thanks to the whole crew --
