Doktor Handyman

Hired Aly to perform various handyman type services around our home. He was at all times a true pleasure to deal with and did the job on time, on a very reasonable budget, with top notch quality and with a smile. All work done very professionally. He even managed to figure out and fix 2 plumbing issues (one a leak, and one a smell) that 2 plumbing companies couldn't figure out! Our home is now "fixed up" and nasty smells and leaks gone thanks to Aly! I would highly recommend him.

I moved into a new home and needed to convert the ground floor family room into a bedroom with an accessible washroom for my son as well as finish a closet. This was my first major renovation project and was quite apprehensive about hiring a contractor. I found Doktor Handyman on Homestars and I could not say enough good things about Aly. From the initial meeting, he was very easy to talk to. Aly had a lot of great suggestions both functionally and for cost-reduction. His quote for the project was comparable with
other contractors I met/contacted. Communication throughout the entire project was excellent as well as the quality of workmanship. Aly was also able to accommodate my requests for additional work around the home during that time. Overall, the experience was pleasant and stress-free. I would not hesitate to recommend him and will definitely use his services again for future projects. It was a pleasure to work with Aly. Thank you!

Very professional company. They did every day the work they said they would do. Also the way they work was clean and the bathroom tiles look really. Really reco them

I opted for the company's flat rate, rather than hourly, since Hadi my handyman, said it could be quick or it could be "tricky". It fell somewhere in the middle but his efforts were successful and I am un-jambed. Company responded quickly to my first inquiry and was on-scene the same day of my follow-up. Would definitely recommend and call on them again.

We hired Dr. Handyman for a kitchen remodel. The team remained professional and respectful of our home throughout the project. Dr. Handyman remained on budget and worked diligently to deliver on time. We would recommend Dr. Handyman and his team for a kitchen remodel.

Based off of his Homestars reviews, I engaged Doktor Handyman for a quote to fully gut and renovate my original, 65 year-old main bathroom. I must admit that I had some apprehensions about using a 'handyman' for a project of this size and magnitude, fearing that they might be more of Mr. Fix-it type shop and not sized or skilled appropriately for a full renovation. Don't let the name fool you! Doktor Handyman was an A-1 professional from from start to finish and did an amazing job on my bathroom.

High points:

- Fair and reasonable quote
- Stayed within timeline and budget
- Excellent finished product
- Good communication
- Extremely easy to work with

Personnel:

The company is made up of a couple of different crews all led under the owner K.C. who acts as the General Contractor. Different crews with different skill-sets came on day-to-day basis depending on what stage of job it was at (tear out, dry-wall, plumbing, tiling, electrical, etc) His guys are very polite and respectful. Job site was left clean at the end of each day.

Job:

Tear out was done properly, right down to the studs/joists. Behind-the-wall construction was done to code in terms of insulation, water-proofing, vapor-barrier, etc. The tile work is very well done including the intricacy of having an accent line follow through the shower nook (very sharp). The overall finish is excellent. End-product is a 10 out of 10.

Communication and Working Relationship:

This is the area that I found truly set Doktor Handyman apart. I found K.C. to be extremely easy work with. He was available day or night to talk, answer questions or help me through design choices or component selection. Every concern I had was addressed without issue. I repeat: without issue. There was no himming and hawing, no weighing of how it would effect his profitability. It was just done. Very refreshing. A great example of this is when I asked for additional waterproofing of the shower nook, outside of his current build standard. His response was simply that if I wanted it that way and if it would give me piece of mind, consider it done. He picked up the time and materials. No nickel and diming, no additional cost to me. It's how he operates, one of many examples. Upon completion, he left us a roll of tape and asked us to road-test the bathroom for a weekend. Tape an 'X' on anything we see that needs attention or is not finished to our liking (there's always a couple of things). We did and it was all taken care without question the following week. He really cares about quality work and genuinely wants you to be happy.

In Closing:

I can't think of many ways I could have improved the experience of this renovation. Fast, fair, friendly and excellent finished product. It went so well that I wouldn't let him leave. I immediately booked Doktor Handyman to gut and renovate my second bathroom. I'll leave another review on that job when it is complete.

Conclusion:

If you have renovation and/or contracting work you need done, call the Doktor! You won't go wrong.

I found KC here on homestars. I was kind in a bind. My home was being sold in one week and the contractor who was supposed to fix my stone steps and faucet did not keep his commitment.

We spoke on the phone and he looked at the pictures and was at my place the very next day. He gave me a quote, which was very reasonable, he had some some difficulty with both the stones and faucet but kept to his quote. He did such a great job that we had him also the side steps.

I would recommend this company without hesitation. Solid job!!!!!!

KC and his crew at Doktor Handyman came to paint window frames, install an interior door and replace a outdoor faucet; they did an excellent job They were polite, on time and on budget.

I highly recommend Doktor Handyman

My antique bed frame was splitting at the footboard and I was very worried that I would be crashing to the floor sometime very soon. This company cared enough to come as an emergency on a weekend evening. They glued it, braced it and nailed it. I'm very grateful. Very caring people.

Hired this company to install a shelf and assemble a kitchen pantry. They came on the same day. Excellent service and reasonable price. I was able to text a picture of what I wanted and he went shopping for the items at Home Depot right away.
