Mr. Richard was pleasant and had wonderful customer service! He took his time to explain what he was going to do, once the job was completed he explained to me what he did! I am pleased with the service.

Richard was fantastic. He has excellent communication, work ethic, and quality of work. We are very pleased with the work he did for us and will definitely use him again in the future. It was so nice to have this experience with him after having a bad experience with a previous contractor. I wish we had found Richard sooner. He installed and finished drywall including matching it up with existing plaster which you can’t tell was done like you can sometimes due to the difference in thickness of plaster versus drywall. He also did some carpentry work and painted.

Extremely well. Richard arrived on time. Was very professional. Completed the work on time. When necessary on design issues he asked me what I wanted or what I had envisioned for the space. My home turned out perhaps even more esthetically appealing than I knew it would. The new door handles and pulls make me very happy and add joy to my time in my kitchen. I would recommend Richard to anyone.

The Deck reconstruction went smoothly even when at the mercy of February 2019's cold and rainy weather. Richard responded to my search promptly. He listened to what I wanted prior to beginning the job and made design suggestions as well. The job was started within weeks and completed in a timely manner with a few delays due to the weather. He hand picked clean, new lumber that had minimal knots. He hand picked new 6x6 beams even when the lumber store wanted him to use older wood. He rounded edges of many of the deck boards for smooth, safe design where the deck aligns with our above ground pool. He took extra care to leave our property presentable at the end of every work day. It was an extreme pleasure working with Richard. He is very friendly man as well as extremely talented handyman. He has good work ethics and meticulous in his work. I would recommend Handyman Unlimited for other handyman jobs.

We were looking for someone who could complete a job that another contractor had not finished, and called Richard after seeing a lot of positive reviews. One or two good reviews could be from family or friends, but many of them is usually a good indicator. And that was the case here. He was prompt and punctual, and did excellent work at reasonable prices. Once he was able to start, he worked on our job exclusively until it was completed. Collaboration with him was both easy and effective. As we get older, having a trusted group of resources becomes more and more important, and we feel that Richard is on that list. The next time we need a handyman, he'll get our first call. Highly recommended.

Reviews of leak repairs must be provisional until proven by a hard rain. Nevertheless I am confident that Richard solved our problem and did it in an affordable and thorough manner. I had to wait several weeks for him to have an opportunity to do the work, but that is no doubt because he is good and has many clients. His work was thorough and I was informed of his progress and any additional problems that were discovered while the repair proceeded. Not only did he repair the rain damage, he traced the problem back to its source and made sure it would not happen again. His work was neat, professional, thorough, of the highest quality. He knows what he is doing. He also documented his work with pictures so that I understood what and why he did certain things. Should I need to, I will certainly use him again and I highly recommend him to anyone needing general handyman services.

All the work took 7 days. Richard is a craftsman at his work. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of home repair. He also gave us ideas on things we can do to help maintain our home.
Description of Work: We needed what we hoped would be a simple fix in the master bath turned into major reconstruction due to wood rot from previous work done by others. Richard took his time explaining to me what needed to be done. As work progressed, I saw his craftsmanship and attention to detail. We are very pleased. Richard also installed a new front door frame, repaired the front door and installed a new storm door. Outstanding work. He also repaired broken steps.

He did a great job. It was not an easy job as it entailed a lot of little jobs, i.e., plumbing, demolition, reconstruction, wiring and re-wiring, tiling, etc. He did not contract out any job. He, and his son, did it all. We would definitely hire him again. In fact, we plan to use him for another remodel job. He is very personable and definitely knows his craft.

Handyman Unlimited Richard remodeled our entire basement. This included installing drywall, trim, painting, demo bathroom, rearranged plumbing for vanity & commode & installed tile & flooring. He was prompt, professional & exhibited quality work. He cleaned up each day so that we had as least amount of debris as possible. He gave some really good suggestions on things we were undecided about. Also, after he finished the job he came back to repair some wall damages caused by a granite installer. We would definitely recommend Richard to others.

Extremely well; I completely agree with the other reviews. Richard has done many jobs for us over the years (including painting our entire house) and we are always pleased with his work. I very much appreciate his attention to detail and neatness, as well as his creativity in tackling complicated and involved jobs.
Description of Work: Richard repaired the walls and painted our very dirty garage, as well as the trim; installed and painted three doors, installed grab bars in a bathroom, painted an interior closet, and did some miscellaneous repairs. He also figured out a simple way to take care of a clicking noise in our heating system, which has completely eluded other repairmen.
