Holmes Handyman

Work well done. Price was right. Included materials and labor.

Excellent. The work was done well -- and quickly. Also: it was reasonably priced.

Holmes Handyman did a great job performing a number of small repairs for me. They were punctual, friendly, professional and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

In the past he did a lot of interior painting for us and he did a really nice job and got it done quickly too. It was all a little floppier this time than it has been in the past. I think he farmed out part of the job to some subcontractor who didn’t do a good job on the painting. The shelf that they installed was uneven and was not done correctly. I would use their service in the future.

Holmes showed up 45 minutes late, and did not call to advise they would be late. Bad first impression when one of the workers repeatedly hit the walls in my apartment building with his ladder when entering. On the positive side, the installation went pretty quickly and appears to be solidly done (at least, after 24 hours). They worked efficiently and ensured that the floor was properly protected before starting work. Less happily, they took little care to avoid damaging the paint or walls in my apartment, scuffing or scratching them in multiple, hard-to-reach places that I will be hard-pressed to fix. Secondly, they misinstalled one end of the curtain rod, leaving an end exposed that isn't supposed to show. Finally, for reasons they didn't explain, they chose to drill only two of three screws into the ceiling for each rod support item. I asked about this when I noticed it and was brushed off. I suppose I should have insisted but decided not too.

Holmes was on time and they are always reliable. They do excellent work and even though at times, I have found them to be a bit pricey, they do quality work for the extra few dollars they charge.
