The man has been a plumber his whole life ; he actually charged me have the price of other estimates. He is very thorough and put down mats where he was working and then cleaned up after doing the job. He really knew what he was doing as I was a service repairman and I know what makes the difference between a good worker and a just ok one. No one will ever have to follow-up this guy.

He came, looked over the jobs, told me he could do them. He did them all over a two-day period, Each one was done completely satisfactorily, and actually exceeded my expectations in several cases. He charged me $475, less than I had expected for the two days.

As with every time Ray has done work for me the results were outstanding. He evaluated what needed to be done, purchased all the necessary equipment, and finished the job as promised. Ray is a true professional with extensive knowledge of electrical and plumbing work and pretty much anything else you would expect a handyman to know. He arrives when promised and gets right to work. His work is outstanding and he always cleans up when finished.

Couldn't go better. Ray is a gentleman and straight shooter. He only charges for things he actually does at a reasonable rate for a licensed electrician and plumber. He shows up when he says he will and works non-stop while there. No cell phone calls, no cigarettes, no coffee breaks. My only regret is that he won't do large jobs like remodeling a bathroom.

Ray was a pleasure to deal with. He was on time, courteous and warm, and performed all of our requests diligently, professionally and with great skill. We would highly recommend him and will use him again ourselves.

Mr. Garvin is a creative, quality-oriented, and meticulous craftsman. He paid attention to the smallest detail and conferred regularly with me to make sure that he was doing exactly what I had envisioned. He suggested changes that improved the overall functionality of the garage and the storage areas in it. He would regularly explain what he was doing and why he was doing it. I was an active member of the decision making process regarding the smallest task. Mr. Garvin is a first-rate craftsman who takes a great deal of pride in and concern for doing the best job possible for his client. I highly recommend him, if you want a first-rate job done.

Ray was very polite, professional and punctual. He was able to remove the old faucet and replace with the new one I had purchased without any issues. About a week later, I noticed a very small leak from the hot water side of the fixture (was dripping onto the floor), so I called him again and he came out the next day and replaced the tubing that goes from the faucet to the plumbing. It was a plastic tubing that most likely cracked after being manipulated when he came out the first time. The leak was so minor that it took me several days to figure out if it really was a leak or if I had just splashed water on the floor, so I know it wasn't something that anyone would have been able to see after the first visit. The first visit was $70 and the 2nd was $55 (cost for the replacement piece and a half hour of work). I had been putting off calling a plumber because I feared it would cost me several hundreds of dollars, so I was happy to pay someone who was a registered master plumber but didn't charge a crazy fee. He did a great job, made it an easy process for me, and I will definitely call him again when something comes up.

He was clean, and very nice. He purchased and replaced the old garbage disposal with a better model and disposed of the old one.

Excellent! I would recommend Ray to anyone. He was professional; left the work area in the bathroom cleaner than how he found it '-).

Ray responded very quickly, had our water shut off for a minimal amount of time, and did an excellent job deciding what hot water heater to purchase and installing it for us. Ray charges by the job not by the hour as many larger firms do, so you know what you're getting for the price (and you know ahead of time how much it will cost). He's very knowledgeable and wants to give you the most suitable product for a good price - he has no incentive to sell you one thing over another as many larger firms do. I recommend you give him a try!

We hired Ray to take care of several varied repair and maintenance jobs around our house. He returned our phone calls quickly, promptly scheduled time for the estimate and the work day. Ray arrived on time and was prepared with all the supplies and tools needed to complete the work. He's a dedicated worker, very professional and a skilled handyman. He asked questions as needed. We had several repair items on our list that Ray determined did not require any work at this time. He did only the jobs that needed to be done. We had a very positive experience and would gladly hire Ray again.

Ray was wonderful. He returned my call promptly, came when he said he'd come, was honest about assessing the difficulty of jobs, took the time to do the work well, charged us fairly, and was pleasant and professional the entire time. I'd definitely recommend him, and I look forward to working with him again.

Ray is a very nice person to work with. Due to my schedule, we were playing phone tag but Ray always followed up quickly. We needed a repair to a ceiling that had water damage as well as needing a ceiling fan installed and another moved to a different room. He cleaned up after himself and the final results for great!

I called and left a message for Ray and within a few hours he had returned my call and we scheduled a time for him to come provide an estimate. We had recently moved into a new house and needed help with changing light fixtures, plumbing and hanging some mirrors.
Ray has done a tremendous job for us. He has been very thorough and always cleans up after the work in done. He arrives on time and works very hard while on the job.
He is an excellent handyman and has the ability to take care of almost all household issues. I would highly recommend Ray Garvin for those who are looking for some help.
