Highly Recommend

We were looking for someone to do a list of miscellaneous repairs and improvements in our home (painting; wallpapering; repairing damaged drywall; adding trim around closet doors; making the interior of a closet more functional; and more). We hired John after seeing the good reviews on Homestars, and we are very happy with the results. John is thoroughly professional in the way he conducts his business responding readily to e-mails; providing a clear estimate; arriving on time; cleaning up afterwards. All the work he did looks great! Moreover, he is very personable and has a good sense of humor so we enjoyed having him working in the house for four days. We would highly recommend him and would readily hire him again.

Prep & Paint house trim/doors/garage door/shutters

After completing our indoor paint project in Jan, as promised John heeded the call for our outdoor painting when weather permitted in order to list our house for sale.
We have found him to be reliable, flexible, accommodating and he does great work too. Also a funny guy who is a delight to work with.
Highly recommend!

Just Moved In

I recently moved into a resale townhouse condo. As one would expect, there were a variety of little things that needed to be fixed. In the span on a day took care of 10 of them, including weatherproofing the front door, properly anchoring the dishwasher, and mounting a large-screen TV in the basement. This is the 3rd place I've owned, and John has helped out with all of them - he's a very versatile guy!

Raised Garden Bed

I've used John previously on indoor projects. This time, I wanted a raised garden bed built for vegetables. John does good work, is reasonably priced and is very personable. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

John’s my go to for all things handy and beyond

Painting, plumbing, light electrical, replaced glass, plastering, etc. etc. John has been to my house two or three times, I always like to bundle up projects, and it feels like there always are a lot of things for him to do, and he delivers on everything superbly. Quick, professional, spotless.

Installed 2 vanities

Decided to refresh 2 bathrooms that had not been touched since 1995. I have used John's services in the past, so, I knew he was the guy to call. He is great to work and whatever obstacles are there. are overcome with calm and direction.

Did whole renovation. Removed old vanities and hardware accessories. Put in new vanity and hardware accessories, plus new base boards, floor and painted.

They look really amazing. They look so good, that I will be doing my third bathroom in April and John will be doing that one as well.
