O'HANDY'S

aStephen is an extremely focused worker.  We have given him simple tasks and some very complicated ones.  Sometimes we know how we want the work done, but often we ask Stephen to figure out the easiest or cheapest way to complete the work.  Stephen handles the work either way.  He is a great problem solver.  He often can offer several ways to complete a his work at different cost levels, so while we asked him to paint our garage, "cheap and dirty, we also asked him to take his time with our closet doors and do it well.  He has installed a trash compactor and finished up installing a dishwasher when the installer could not cope with our non-standard counters.  Stephen was able to figure out how to get the job done.  Stephen can be talkative, but he never charges for "chat time." I have found him friendly, prompt and very focused.  I found his prices very reasonable, but his work has been so good that I have not compared him with others.

Stephen did a great job. The caulking nice and neat. We did a lot of detective work trying to determine how/why moisture might be getting under some floorboards on a lower floor. The damage is most likely a delayed reaction to a flooding episode a while ago. But in the meantime, Stephen fixed a gutter, dug some trenches, jacked up a support beam, and extended a discharge pipe. He's great at explaining what he's doing and seems to actually enjoy trying to figure out mysterious issues!

Steven may not be everyone's cup of tea.  But he knows exactly what he is doing.  He consults with the client so that they get the exact result they want.  He is very good at presenting options and is not afraid to provide a general estimate for a multiple tasks (such as ours).  He is very reliable.  He is also chatty, which for me is a plus, but perhaps not for everyone. He does not charge for the time he is simply talking with the client.  This being said, he is a very fast worker.  I have been told that he is a bit higher priced than some, but I have to say that I did not find this to be the case.  I feel that we got real value for our money.  I would recommend O'Handys (Stephen Morrow) for anyone who wants to get the job done quickly, completely and with high quality.

Showed up on time, did a great job.  We have used him in the past and have always been pleased.  Will call him when we need small jobs done.

Could not have been better.  O'Handy's is not inexpensive, but the quality of the work is excellent, and the owner is honest and reliable.

The job involved several visits, and Steve was always prompt and courteous. He was also great about cleaning up after himself and not getting drywall dust and plaster everywhere!
The end product was very nice. It was a small space and presented a few challenges, with a lot of corners, angles, etc. and, being an older house, there was also some settling. In short, he made the surfaces look as smooth as humanly possible.
Steve does high-quality work and his charges are reasonable. And he's great at figuring out work-arounds--if there's a simpler, more economical way of doing a job, he can probably figure it out. I'd highly recommend him.

He knows what he is doing, and is very prompt.

Filled holes and painted 1775 sq ft three bedroom home prior to selling.  He did an amazing job.  He knew I was selling the house and that I had just moved to Vancouver, WA and I had limited funds.  We initally discussed several potential projects but he worked with me to use my money most effectively.  He also cleaned up beautifully when he was finished.  He didn't leave a mess behind like some workers do.  His ability to communicate with me was also terrific. He kept me informed as he went along since I was now living over three hundred miles away. I can't say enough good things about Stephen.  Hire him!

He is a great handyman. He charges on an hourly basis. He is great and is very creative. He can figure out something where I can’t get the part or there is no obvious way to fix something. So it is a good kind of person to have. I have been using his services for four years and as needed.
