Dave did a fantastic job on our garage ceiling drywall that had fallen down in area. He is great to work with, pricing was fair, and works very efficiently. I highly recommend Dave's Handyman Services for various miscellaneous projects.

Major full, hall bath renovated over ten years ago. Needed clean-up and refresh. Dave repaired ceiling and walls, painted, replaced medicine cabinet, lighting, fan and switches. Also painted hallway and doors. Did a great job. Recommend and would use again.

Dave is very punctual, professional, and conscientious. He will work with you until you are satisfied and offer suggestions as appropriate. As had several items on our list to complete and all were done correctly and to our satisfaction. Dave's pricing is very fair as well. We highly recommend Dave and will certainly call on him again for any projects we are looking to get done.

Requested a quote from Dave through Angi and he called me only a few hours later. He came out the next day and completed the job in a timely fashion. He was professional, very responsive, and called when he was on his way. Would recommend Dave for handyman services.

Everything went very well. I've been a homeowner for more than 50 years and have used a number of handymen and Dave is by far and away the best, most versatile and most accomplished of them all. He is also punctual and very meticulous in his preparation and execution.

Dave was extremely quick in responding to my request and detailed in his assessment of the job. Tile had to be removed to get the old dishwasher removed. Once at our house, he quickly assessed what needed to be done and did it effectively. He is very conscientious and I would definitely use him again.

He did a great job and was very persistent until he was able to get it installed correctly. He was having problems because of my circuit breaker which we discovered later on. I have nothing but good things to say about him and I would definitely hire him again.

Dave did an excellent job. Always punctual, friendly. Swept up after himself daily. Started the job on the date requested, completed in the required time. I will be hiring him again for some other odd jobs here and there. I recommend him highly. Reasonably priced.

Amazing. Not only is the finished project exactly what I wanted but Dave is always professional, punctual, responsive to my changing ideas but also creative and fun to work with. He took my original plans and worked with me to design exactly what I wanted. I cannot express how thrilled I am with the finished project.

Our home is a 50's cape cod. What that means in real language is that nothing is square. Everything has settled so that there are indents, misalignments, etc. everywhere! Our dog did some major damage on bay window sill as well. Dave first did work for my husband over 20 years ago. Nothing has changed in all that time. He does the quality work now that he did then. In fact, he's better! He estimated the job, advised me where I could get the best costs on tile and styles (as I wanted to pick out the finishes). Gave me a spot on estimate of the time it would take and - as always - arrived at the hour promised to complete the task. It is beautiful and we absolutely love it! Somehow, he worked his magic to make the lines look straight!

When I contracted with Dave, he gave me estimates that included what it would cost if no posts needed replacement or if posts did need replacement. Upon inspection, Dave said that no posts needed to be replaced. He did repairs on 3 posts & replaced the bottom trim on all 4 posts. He then repainted all the posts & fascia. I was so happy with his honesty,work & reliability (he kept all appointments, reminded me when he was coming & arrived on time) that I am contracting with him to do some other jobs around the house.

Our back porch post was beginning to rot at the bottom. We arranged for Dave to replace. When he got here he said it was still in pretty good shape and did not need replacement yet. He was prompt and helpful. We will call him back in the future to replace that posts and some others in front.

Everything was perfect. I’m very pleased and impressed with Dave’s responsiveness, professionalism and ability. Some stubborn parts on our old tub and shower were tricky, but he persevered and made everything work wonderfully well. He hung a large framed painting that had been leaning against the fireplace for ages (this required a pro to hang correctly) and it looks outstanding. It’s centered just right and is secure. Lastly, he installed a new faucet in another bathroom and that looks gorgeous also. Dave does it all and I will definitely hire him again for other home improvements and repairs. Very reasonable and honest. He goes the extra mile to do the job right. I’m so happy to have found him on Angies List.
