Handyman for Multiple Small Projects
Santos Installed an outlet upside down (with the ground on top), which he said was correct, and walked off the job when i would not pay extra for him to correct it. Beware that this is a sideline job for Santos so he is only available after 5:00 and on weekends. Midway through my laundry list of projects, he insisted on a full-day of work to return. My recommendation is not to use this handyman.
Response from Huckleberry Home Improvement
"actually the safest way to install a outlet is with the ground up for just in case metal comes in contact with the ground I did more than 50% of the job and you only paid me for a 1/4 of the job, not to mention the price reduction you made to my estimate alleging that the prices were fair, well the prices I gave you were very fair the problem is that you are a cheap person do not want to pay, and in regards of my working schedule I don't think is any of your business what time I work as long the work gets done especially if its done at half of what I quoted you, be aware of this customer because he is a very cheap person and argues a lot with the prices I should never done any work for you ,but you live and learn."

I am always skeptical of hiring contractors as I have been burned on a few occasions. Nery at Huckleberry was a god send! Not only was he prompt, courteous, professional, lower than the 3 other bids but he did an exceptional job on my entire house. This was not a small job I hired him for. My entire house had over 35 different size holes in both the walls and ceilings due to having my electrical rewired throughout a 2,500 square foot house. Nery competed the drywall within the time frame he stated without cutting any corners. His work was so exceptional, during the final walk through, he had to point out some of the areas he fixed as I couldnâ t even tell there was a hole there previously. One of the great traits Nery has is that he went above and beyond when he didnâ t have to. I did a walk through for the bid and we then had a set agreement on the price and the work he would complete broken down in each stage. Nery found about 8 other small holes he fixed that was not ever discussed and he didnâ t nickel and dime me. His employee William who assisted with the job was extremely polite and was also a pleasure to work with as he was just as prompt and took pride in the work, he assisted Nery with! Oh, if you want a contractor who cleans up after themselves, Huckleberry is the one! Not only did they clean up daily after each shift, when the job was completed, they went into each area to remove any overspray, they swept, mopped, and washed the walls down. Who does that? NERY DOES! I can not ethically recommend anyone else but t Huckleberry for all your drywall needs.

A variety of projects filled my to-do list, from opening solidly-stuck rolling cabinet doors to installing two windows and putting up new stockade fencing. Santos and his splendid assistant did an outstanding job, the result of many years of expertise in the carpentry and home-repair fields. Conscientious and industrious, Santos is reliable, congenial, and eager to please. All the tasks he agreed to perform were executed to perfection. Needless to say, he is highly recommended to all neighbors seeking knowledgeable, dependable home repair work.

I contacted Santos from Huckleberry Home Improvement to install a grab bar into the tile in a shower. He arrived on time, had an incredible array of tools and was very careful and accurate in the placement and installation of the grab bar. He was very experienced and knew exactly what he needed for the job and had everything necessary. The job went very quickly, very neat and perfect. I would hire Santos for any handyman type of job.

I hired Huckleberry to do a lot of exterior repairs on my house. They did very high quality work and completed the job on time. The neighbors have all commented on the major improvement to the appearance. I will be doing business with them again for sure.

I was very pleased with the professional service that I received from Huckleberry Home Improvements regarding the replacement of my storm doors. Santos arrived as promised and carefully measured the door openings so that he could purchase the right size doors. He secured the doors quickly and installed them perfectly. Santos is very customer oriented, easy to contact and deal with, hardworking, and goes the extra mile to ensure that his clients are completely satisfied with his work. As a result, I was willing to award him some additional projects at my house.

Huckleberry was one of the easier contractors I've worked with. To start with, the owner actually answered his phone or got back to me immediately. He also left the area clean each day and made sure all debris was deposited in my garbage cans. Based on this work, I hired him for another job right after.

The job was done on time and at a reasonable price. It was a very small job, i.e. installing a bird guard to prevent birds from nesting in the clothes dryer exhaust vent. I bought the bird guard, and Santos installed it. I would highly recommend him, and would cionsider him for other jobs. We may need a deck expansion soon.

Was not 100% sure how to install the lock and no instructions came with it, but they contacted the manufacturer and did an excellent job. They cleaned up after themselves well too!

Its so hard to find someone for small projects--everyone wants to focus on the big jobs. So its wonderful to find someone like Santos who is incredibly responsive and dedicated even on small jobs. He did a great job where others had failed in repairing our cabinets, which were designed by the prior homeowner with special hinges that can't be replaced. His carpentry skills are top notch. He is very personable and he stayed within the price range quoted. I would use him again in a heartbeat.

Santos went above and beyond the "norm" in the Customer Service dept.! He and his employees were always early and stayed late as required. I am so satisfied that I will be utilizing his expertise in the near future on other projects in/around my house. I have been dealing with various contractors lately and he is the best I've seen in YEARS!!! Highly recommended by me, a very picky customer living in Greenwich, Ct.
