Sal Handyman & Maintenance Service

Description of Work: Sal has done a few jobs for us.

Description of Work: Oversaw the job. Explained what was being done, and showed us around throughout the job. Provided finishing touches at the end of the job.

Description of Work: My son lives in a large condo complex in Medford, MA. Sal was recommended to us by other residents in the building who have used him. He advertises himself as a "handyman," but he is much more than that. He installed porcelain tile in the very large entry and continued it into the kitchen--totally a very large area. (We supplied materials for all he did). Before laying the tile, he removed the deteriorated sub-flooring and applied "wonderboard." The tiling job was done beautifully and meticulously--he even used cut tiles for the "kick plate" underneath the kitchen cabinets--moved all appliances out of the kitchen. He applied moldings to all other baseboard areas and finished off the tile with finishing strips where the entry way transitioned to the carpeted living room. He also installed mirrored, sliding closet doors in the entryway closets, and hung a new hanging light fixture in the entry way. Without my asking him, he painted the part of the ceiling that was damaged by the old fixture. The ceilings in my son's condo are 22' high, so installing something from it is not an easy task. Sal worked on this project about a week; came back later to seal the grout; meticulously cleaned up after his work and hauled away the old debris. Sal takes pride in his beautiful workmanship, is always totally punctual and reliable, and cleans up meticulously each night and then again when the job is complete.
