Nathan I.

He clearly wasn't a highly trained electrician. I knew more about installing a light than he did. He also didn't have a car.

Michelle S.

Hakeem was a pleasure to work with. He fixed my chandelier with ease and installed my dimmer in record time. He was prompt and neat. I would work with him again.

Raymond T.

Amazing - very professional and polite! Not only fixed our electricity issues, he offered to help us with other works around the house!

Ashley A.

Samuel did an amazing job with the electrical work I needed done in my kitchen. Kind, efficient, and thoughtful. He even brought extra parts to leave with me “just in case”. I had the best experience and will definitely call again If I need anything else done.

Jonathan K.

He was very competent, professional, and friendly. Great quality work. Even fixed the mistakes done by the previous handyman.

Emma T.

Paul spent 3hr 45 mins making sure the radiator perfect-He paid real attention to detail & very friendly, polite & kind.Great communication!

James A.

Carlos was fantastic. He went above and beyond and explained my options each step of the way through. I had thrown a few different tasks his way and none of them were a problem whatsoever. Needless to say, everything is working perfectly. Very knowledgeable and personable and really great with pets which makes things SO much easier. I have three dogs who can all be a handful when barking away in the rooms with people over, but he was very friendly and the dogs calmed down immediately and settled in which I think as a pet owner says a lot... Highly recommend him for anything you may need - will be using him again without question!

CJ L.
