"I hired Bob Phalan for repairs and renovation of a rental unit in Dorchester that had wear and tear from multiple tenants. Bob worked on replacing exterior clapboards, renovating the bathroom with new tiles, replacing bathroom rotten wood frame window with a vinyl frame, installing new light fixtures and repairing bathroom plumbing, repairing torn screens, as well as repainting all walls and trim throughout the unit. He also plastered damaged ceilings and cleaned and organized the basement storage area. Bob arrived early each day and worked diligently. Bob is a good problem solver and can suggest ways to do repairs for the best outcome while keeping costs down. I would definitely hire him again."
"Bob Pino did an excellent job on multiple handyman tasks in my home. He responded quickly, was very knowledgeable, thorough, professional and skilled in the work done. He completed smaller tasks and efficiently repaired an entryway ceiling, with a second person assisting to get it done quickly. His workmanship was skilled and he did a great job with numerous small repairs, installed an under cabinet TV and patiently explained pros and cons of different repair options. I recommend him highly."
"Diego was prompt in responding, laid out all options, recommended a less expensive repair, and did excellent work. Very easy to work with and a very nice person.."
"JS General Contractor Douglas Santos and his brother Dennis did work in my home. I needed to replace a broken pull down attic staircase and also needed a ceiling repair in my kitchen due to water damage and some other painting and repair. They completed the work in 3 days. They were prompt, neat, tidy and respectful. The quality of the work was exceptional. I have already asked Douglas to gIve me a quote on another project I have in my home. I highly recommend JS General Contractor."
"I originally hired Services & More to cut my grass. But...one thing led to another. As I also had an issue with one one my windows. The trim was rotted and water was getting into the wall causing damage, along with that, we desperately needed to replace our shingles. My husband and I wanted vinyl siding done. Adam, was very helpful with the whole process. Before I knew it everything we needed done had gotten done, and then some. What I liked most about this company was he never pushed or tried to sell us on any services. We just happened to ask. Once again, Adam took care of what we wanted to do and more, because we asked, including our garden beds. When they did the siding, they replaced ply wood in the areas that needed it, and also repaired the foundation, in certain spots. Adam also did the interior of our wall, where that window was. ALL VERY reasonable in price! Considering that they did quite a lot. They are my go to guys!! I've hired them for life! Highly recommend!!"
"I had a great experience with this handyman. He was knowledgeable, professional, and did an excellent job fixing my computer. He quickly identified the problem, explained everything clearly, and made sure everything was working properly before leaving. The service was efficient, reasonably priced, and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone needing computer repair or technical assistance."
"Amazing communication ! Eager to make changes if needed. Did amazing work, this was my first experience with Angie and was impressed. He made sure to get rid of the boxes and made sure no floors were scratched when building the island I purchased from wayfair. Reccomend him 100%"

It is generally worth repairing leather furniture rather than replacing it, as it is typically more affordable and the material tends to retain its value. A typical repair averages around $250, which is significantly less than the thousands of dollars a replacement could cost. Even a full reupholstering, which can cost up to $4,000, may still be more economical than buying new. With proper care, repaired leather furniture can last for many years, making the investment worthwhile. However, if the underlying structure or frame of the furniture is damaged or malfunctioning, replacement might be a better option. The quality of the leather and the furniture piece are also important factors. For a definitive answer, it is best to consult a leather repair professional to assess your specific situation.
If your drawer slides are made of metal or plastic, it’s best to use white lithium grease to lubricate them. The dense formula of that compound creates long-lasting results and should prevent you from having to re-grease the drawer slides frequently. Test the white lithium grease on a small, less-visible area of the slides first to ensure it doesn’t damage the finish before applying to the entire fixture.
When deciding whether to repair your leather furniture or not, consider a few advantages and disadvantages:
Pros
Less expensive than buying a new piece
Extends the life of the leather before replacement is necessary
Makes your leather item look like new
Some repairs are relatively easy
Cons
Some repairs may be costly
Damage may not be repairable
Repairs may not blend perfectly with the original leather
May need to leave the piece with a repair expert
