Testimonials

Very Happy with the quality of work, timeliness of completing projects, and professionalism of the handyman.

Lori, Mountville

Andy, I wanted to share this testimony (below) with you from our client Janice Henry, in response to my request for a short note we could post on our website. While she mentions me by name, her compliments are really for our craftsmen: Chris, Johnny, David and Ray. They played key roles in completing her patio paver, rear deck, and ceiling texture projects, and proved once again what I tell my clients to expect: great craftsmanship and honored deadlines. Nice work – again – guys! The fact Janice came to us because of how the Lancaster, PA team lived the brand makes her comments all the more gratifying. We have already completed two neighbors’ projects based on her recommendation – another testament to how our guys give their best every day.

Steve Fenton, General Contractor CGC1511707 Fenton Management Services, LLC dba Handyman Matters

Hi, Doug. Just wanted to share a couple of “before” and “after” pictures with you. I still have a couple of paint touch ups to do – and I am still putting stuff away – but it’s totally functional now. And I love it! Thank you so much. Cliff was great to work with and he did a great job. I really appreciate his dedication to my deadline, especially after the floor took a lot longer than anticipated. It is exactly what I hoped for. Thanks again! PS – please feel free to use me as a reference at any time. Cliff is actually going to come back to do a couple of minor things that were low on the priority list, and to check out my leaking roof. If I stay in this house long enough I’ll be checking on getting my porch done, too!

Hello Kelly, I just wanted to send you a quick note that you could pass along to Bill's boss. He is doing a fabulous job at UPS SCS York PA. He can tackle just about anything we throw at him, no matter how large and complicated it may be. He is truly a talented individual. His dedication to our company does not go unacknowledged. I know it's not a lengthy email, but it does sum up the great work he is doing! Thanks for your time, Kelly.
