Painting & Handywork

Ricardo did excellent work in my house as I prepped it for selling. He repainted my kitchen, bathrooms and hallways and they looked like brand new. He also replaced the caulking in my kitchen and bathrooms, replaced the ceiling tiles in the basement - and even changed a few lightbulbs (which was helpful since I'm so short - thanks Ricardo!) He definitely went above and beyond. Very professional and honest, and worked with me to figure out what would show best aesthetically for resale. His quote was very fair, and the work was done on time and was of great quality. I would definitely recommend his services and would use him again in the future for projects.

general repairs

As I prepared to sell and move I realized to my horror that all of my family handymen were now too old or wintering somewhere warm. I contacted Ricardo and he was wonderful. Prompt answers, showed up prepared for the jobs I needed him to do and didn't turn a hair when asked to straighten pictures or other little problems. He does terrific work and I recommend him highly.

Ricardo has completed a number of projects at my house. This has included landscaping, fixing fixtures, and painting the powder room to name a few. I have found Ricardo to be reliable, detail oriented and very professional. I am not stressed out anymore when I am faced with any repairs around my house. Thanks to Silver Lining Handywork!

Wall repair/painting/renovation

I just moved into a fixer-upper and hired Ricardo after reading several positive reviews of him on this site. He was very professional, courteous and always on time. He does great work and I would highly recommend him. I will be seeing him again soon to help me with my never-ending to do list :)

Front Door and Lock Repair

"Silver Lining Handywork" replaced part of my
front door frame and trim. Plus they also replaced
and re-fitted parts of the door and the locks.

It was an extremely well executed repair job.
Ricardo did solid work and everything looks great.
It was also completed pretty quickly and each step was
thought about, so it was quite thorough as well.

I really appreciate the repairs to my door and
highly recommend "Silver Lining Handywork"
Very professional and vast experience of repair work.

Thanks Ricardo! great work!

Handy work

Ricardo arrived on time & with a smile; took a walk with me as I showed him what all needed done; listened while I prioritized what mattered most & then set about getting it all done, quickly, methodically, & efficiently. I'd been hesitant because I've not used HomeStars before and was unsure what to expect, although the reviews were the reason I called in the first place. I look forward to working with Ricardo again in the near future & recommend his services.

Light Fixture Installation

We needed to have a new light fixture installed in our two storey entranceway. We're very thankful we found Silver Lining and had them install the fixture. Their price was extremely reasonable and the customer service was fantastic! They arrived at exactly the time they said they would and got done so quickly we were amazed. The light looks great and we couldn't be happier with the work of Ricardo and his crew. We're looking forward to having them work on some other projects for us!

Curtain rod, picture, vanity mirrors

I'm SO glad to have come across Silver Lining through Homestars! We wanted curtain rods attached to our bulkhead which needed carefully attention so the duct work behind it was not touched/punctured. After calling many so called "pros" and even having a few come into our house, Ricardo saved the day. He was prompt, knew exactly what I wanted done and attached our double curtain rods without any issue. Once he completed hanging the curtain and I realised how well he did the job I asked him to add a large photo in our dining room along with 2 vanity mirrors. The jobs were flawless and it was a pleasure having Ricardo do the work for us for a very fair price. Will definitely call him back when we need some more small work done around the house.
