I was very pleased with the job I requested. They were very efficient and very courteous. They made it easy for me to dispose of the packaging and place the old piece outside. I would recommend them and personally use them again.

The performance of these 2 knuckleheads (George and older guy who spoke no English) was nothing but a disappointment. 1)They arrived late and brought limited amount of tools. No miter saw, no work table or work horses, no shop vacuum, no stepladder, no nail gun/brad nail gun. And above all, no protection for the floor inside the house. Now I have indentations on the entrance hallway floor from dropped tools. 2)Workmanship: screwheads/nails sticking out of wood and PVC paneling/casing and trim. Panels and casing fitted poorly (large gaps). Silicon filled in poorly or excessively. And since they ran out of the white silicon caulking they instead used clear. Silicon caulking cannot be painted over. It costs $5 per tube for the right type of paintable caulking. Did they go and buy some more.No, because that would mean extending the job even longer. 3)I deducted $15 dollars from the contract. Where was Zachery Trakas to do final inspection of the work performed? NO more Helping Hands.
Response from Helping Hands | Long Island

"Dear [Member Name Removed], Thank you for your feedback. While I respect your perspective, I feel it’s important to clarify a few points about the job and the services provided. 1. Arrival and Tools: Our team arrived slightly later than scheduled due to unexpected traffic, but we were fully equipped with the necessary tools to complete the job. While you mentioned we lacked certain tools, these were not required for the type of door installation you requested. As for floor protection, we take care to minimize impact, but we received no request from you to take additional precautions, which we would have been happy to provide. 2. Workmanship: It’s disappointing to hear you were dissatisfied with aspects of the installation, as our team followed standard industry practices. Gaps and uneven fits often arise from the pre-existing structure or materials provided, which can require adjustments. Regarding the caulking, we used clear silicone as a professional choice to complete the job on time without sacrificing quality. We suggested going to Home Depot to buy the white caulk you wanted, but instead you insisted on deducting $15 for you to complete it yourself, which we didn't argue against. 3. Final Inspection: My absence during the final inspection was due to scheduling conflicts, but I trusted my experienced team to complete the job professionally. I am always available for follow-up concerns, yet we received no immediate communication regarding these issues before your review. We stand by our work and the professionalism of our team. If there are legitimate concerns, I’m happy to address them further. However, it’s important to provide an accurate account of the service received. Sincerely, Zachery Trakas Owner, Helping Hands | Long Island"

I used Helping Hands to help me move out of my apartment in Jersey back to Long Island. The guys they sent were very professional and came prepared. They had my apartment packed quickly and efficiently, then unpacked everything into my storage unit for me. I didn’t have to lift a finger! 10/10 would hire them again in a heartbeat!

George and his crew did an amazing job! My yard is not an easy landscape to work with due to it being unlevel and tree roots appearing throughout. They meticulously made difficult cuts around concrete, a shed and a carport making my yard look clean and perfect! I highly recommend this hardworking, professional company for all handyman jobs!

Showed up on time. Went with me to pick up the medicine cabinet that needs to be replaced. Made renovations so the cabinet would fit. Didn't leave until the job was complete. I would use their service again

We used Helping Hands Long Island for handyman services for our duplex. Zack came out and did an estimate (which we found quite reasonable), and got us on their schedule really quickly, especially considering all of the delays due to the recent record breaking rainfall damages in NY. Zack and the team are super professional, responsive and helpful at all times. We are so happy with the quality of the job. Highly recommended! Thank you Helping Hands Long Island!

Zach’s team was incredible! They were meticulous with the work the did. His team even vacuumed the ground around the work area. I’ve never had anyone with that level of detail do work for me. I highly recommend them!
