"Noel and his team did a speedy and fantastic job installing the fence. Would recommend, and I plan on calling him again when it’s time to re-do my deck."
"I recently had drywall installed on my unfinished basement ceiling, and overall I’m very pleased with the results. Roberto was professional, arrived on time, and clearly knew what he was doing. He took the time to properly measure, cut, and install each section, ensuring a clean and even finish throughout the space. What stood out most was the attention to detail—seams were well-taped and mudded, and the ceiling looks smooth. They also kept the work area tidy and minimized dust as much as possible, which I really appreciated given the nature of the job. The project was completed within the expected timeframe, and communication was consistent from start to finish. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to finish or upgrade their basement space."
"We needed to have our 40-year-old bathtub converted into a walk-in shower for my elderly mother and have the bathroom flooring replaced. After an exhaustive search of potential companies, I came across Mako Shower & Bath. Shawn visited us for a consultation and gave us an opportunity to explore the different design options. He was very thorough and provided all of the information we needed about how it would be installed. For accessibility, we decided to have a folding seat and two grab bars installed in the shower. Once all of the parts were delivered to Mako, the install itself took less than a day. The installers, Kevin and Riley, did a fantastic job and we are extremely pleased with the new shower and flooring. It not only looks amazing, it addresses all of the safety and accessibility issues we had with the old bathtub and floor."
"Ken was quick to respond to my request, He, Kenny and Brittany showed up on time, took a quick tour with me of jobs I hsd for them, got to work and completed all jobs. Iâ m very happy with their kindness, cleanliness and job results. They installed window well covers, swapped out electrical lights and replaced and fitted tiles for a drop ceiling."
"They were excellent! I called while at work and they arrived at my house within five minutes. They explained everything to my mom, who was home, and called me to verify what was needed for the repair. The repair on took only 5 minutes. A few months ago, we had another company fix the toilet. Apparently they did not properly install it and it cause a slow leak. What impressed me is that Cipriano could have really charged a lot and over sold what needed to be done but they did not. They fixed the leak. They were honest, knowledgeable, courteous, quick, and really nice people. I would hire them again and plan to for future projects."
"Bill did a great job on a variety of jobs (painted all interior doors, replaced the door knobs, painted a bedroom, replaced an exterior door, replaced rotting wood outside the garage, installed smoke detectors, unclogged a bathroom sink and stopped a leaky bath faucet). He provided me with constant updates and was a pleasure to work with."
"Walter did am excellent job of sealing a gap under my sliding door that was giving me water intrusion issues. He clearly explained what he was doing and offered suggestions for how to mitigate drainage issues that were contributing factors to the water intrusion. He was very professional, courteous, and cleaned up well after the job was done."
"The work that Bobby did was rebuilding a shed ramp, installing new porch screen door and repairing large window ledge. All I can say is that he made everything better than new! Couldn’t ask any anyone more professional!"
"Harry was the 3rd handy man i contacted to complete this project. All others were charging an insane amount of money or they did not want to take the job. Harry was prompt and professional. I recommend his company to anyone looking for a handyman. 5 star service."
"Both Ace repair men were thoughtful, well prepared to fix my window problems,. They called to let me know when they would arrive, cleaned up expertly, and we're efficient."
