The Handy Beard is a true professional with excellent attention to detail. He came to our home first to review projects. He gave us an estimated time and completed all projects with efficiency and on our expected time line. We are delighted to have met Joey and we have already discussed future projects. Five star review is well deserved. Thanks so much.

Laminate Wood or Stone Flooring Installation

Mr Slaughter removed existing ceramic tiles from the kitchen and hallway and installed underlayment and LVP totalling 100+/- sf. It was a tedious process. He was very meticulous and communicated with us each step and sent pictures showing the progress. He did a phenomenal job and I would highly recommend him to handle any project in your home

Very prompt, respectful of my needs, excellent ideas for my projects, worked efficiently. I am thrilled I found him and we have additional projects planned and scheduled. All of these projects will help me remain in my home longer with less worry. My neighbor is going to contact him for some jobs at his home based on the work and customer service I received !! This has been a win win situation for me!

I thought Joey knew what he was doing but once he was done I started noticing how bad the quality of his work is. I had him install an attic ladder and i think he cut my ceiling joists with a reciprocating saw the cuts are terrible and the bracing is not flush, it has me worried about the structural integrity of the ladder. . He scoped the work out beforehand and still arrived without the things needed, such as two 2x6,s tlfor bracing that i provided. The drywall around degrees the opening was definitely cut with a reciprocating saw and was so sloppy and damaged other areas in the process. He was actually going to put trim around it before i stopped him and told him not to because I needed to fix the drywall first. He also damaged my new flooring and when confronted about it, said he would talk with his partner and then peeled out and took off in his truck. Watch out, I do t think this guy knows what the hell he is doing and is only a matter of time until he completely destroys a home.

This Pro removed an old storm door and installed a new storm door. Gutters were cleaned out and gutter covers were installed.

Peephole was installed in front door. Internal door lock latches were installed. Outside downspout drain extenders were installed. Mini-blinds were installed at french door panels. Custom window curtain fittings were adjusted up for better fit. Will re-hire.

I’m very very pleased with ALL the work he did. He was very professional. He went over the project with me to make sure that he understood my vision. He cleaned up after each project. He is very knowledgeable. If you are looking for a honest, professional person to do home repair and maintenance then hire The HandyBeard. You will be pleased with his work. He is my guy for ALL my home projects. I already scheduled him for another project. GREAT, GREAT WORK

Joey was not afraid to take on our somewhat-involved project - we needed 2 old in-wall AC units removed and to have the corresponding holes patched, but this included both interior wood paneling and wall construction as well as exterior brick/masonry. Joey partnered with his dad and they completed the work beautifully and well within the expected timeframe. Joey started by providing a detailed and comprehensive estimate, and he performed vital research as well, identifying the correct wood paneling that matched our existing walls. We enjoyed working with the Handybeard, recommended him to our neighbors, and look forward to using his services again in the future! He is already working with us on a future closet-reframing project. Thanks Joey and your dad!

Did a great job with the exterior door frame and damage which presented challenges, but he ingeniously tackled! Also re-screened a damaged window screen and fixed a hose reel connection. I am very grateful!!

The Handybeard, Joey, did a superb job removing my old hood/fan unit, and installed a new stainless steel hood/fan unit. A very methodical approach to both removing the old hood and installing the new. Nothing is rushed, and it shows in the finished product. Extremely pleased with the work.

Did a very neat and clean job on several home projects that I’ve had. And I will continue to use him in the future. Quality work, and the price is right. He’s done drywall work, paint, finish attic. And has many projects from me in the future. Also reliable

We hired Mr. Joey Slaughter with The Handybeard to remodel the bathroom in our rental property, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, Joey was professional, punctual, and extremely detail-oriented. The project involved everything from updating the plumbing and installing new fixtures to replacing the shower and floors, and the transformation is stunning. Joey communicated with us every step of the way, offering helpful suggestions and ensuring we were satisfied with the choices being made. The quality of the work is top-notch, and the bathroom now looks modern, fresh, and inviting. Our tenants were thrilled with the upgrade, and we’ve already recommended the Handybeard to friends and family. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled handyman who goes above and beyond, look no further. We’ll definitely be hiring the Handybeard for future projects!
