Since I don't want to pay for Angie's List, I have gone through some trial and error to find a good handy man for my new home. Fortunately, my old apartment complex had the brains to hire Ki of Checklist Handyman to remedy some simple situations in my home, and I had the brains to keep his information when I bought my house! Little did I know the scope of handyman knowledge Ki had!Not only has Ki helped me spearhead and complete NUMEROUS home improvement projects, but he also did some awesome work for my mom. Her front door was losing its luster, and Ki stripped and varnished the entire thing... for a great price. You should see this thing. Amazing! He has helped me do so many things from fixing my garbage disposal, to hanging large pictures/televisions to installing insanely heavy chandeliers. He is now working on my kitchen counters and backsplash and will install my hardwood floors next.I can't say enough nice things about this guy. Everyone knows how uncomfortable it is to have some stranger in your house, installing this or fixing that... but Ki is so friendly and approachable that I never feel that way. He also knows when to bother you and when to not. I work from home, and he never gets in my way. He is always on time, always provides great advice and always explains everything to you in detail.If you have any home project, small or large, Ki of checklist handyman is your guy. Give him a call... he is so relaxed and so affordable that you won't want to work with anyone else. And he knows how to do just about anything. read more

Ki was terrific. Having him help was an awesome experience. There are three high level points that I'd make: (1) he's friendly, polite, and a genuinely good person; (2) he's smart, confident, and excellent at what he does; (3) his pricing and fees are fair. First of all, Ki is a great guy. He exudes, calmness, friendliness, professionalism, expertise. He listens. He asks what else one might need help with. He seems to genuinely care and want to be helpful. Second, he knows his stuff! From the most basic - like hanging a clock on a wall, to something with a little more complexity (like hanging mirrors and having to go through metal framing), from troubleshooting hard-wired smoke alarms, to fixing electrical in appliances, to consulting and helping with shelving, stacking a washer/dryer ... he's knowledgeable about it all. I was appreciative of his help and I'm happy to know that I have a resource I can call on in the future. Finally, is pricing is fair. He has a base rate, but for the work he does, it's well worth it. This the second review I've written. The first was for an unpleasant restaurant experience in L.A. This second is for a wonderful experience working with Ki here in Honolulu. He's great. Just please don't request his help when I need his help with something! read more

I called Checklist Handyman to replace and install an air conditioner and to fix two inside doors, one with stripped screws and the other with a lock that did not close properly. I thought that the estimate that Ki Soh gave me was a bit high, but lower than other quotes I received. After he finished, I felt that his services were a real bargain. The a/c that is situated 6 feet above the floor, was more difficult to install and required some re-modeling, He fixed the inside doors quickly and even offered to mend a closet door whose hinge screws were stripped. He explained exactly what he did and, like a teacher, showed me some tricks to know, e.g., the use of a heavy duty metal tape to seal the air conditioner unit, and the advice that most screw down wooden screws too tightly. Ki has an amazing ability to problem solve, to think of creative solutions, and to explain what he did. He will not require you to get new hardware if the existing one just needs tweaking and he would not take extra money for the third door. His treatment towards me showed that he is an honest, competent, and inventive handyman who looks forward to challenges. read more

Ki is a true professional that does meticulous work.I recently purchased a house and have had Ki work on over a dozen items ranging from changing out doorstops to replacing light fixtures and re-doing tile grout. He also mounted a couple of large televisions for me, which included installing an electrical outlet behind each TV and running all the HDMI cables through the wall, so you see nothing coming from the TV. Everything he worked on came out fantastic.I did get some lower quotes when I was shopping around, but KI's prices weren't unreasonable (especially for the quality of the work). Like anything else, you get what you pay for. Ki's motto is "Get it right the first time every time" and he's shown me that repeatedly. You can tell he really cares about doing a good job. That, to me, has tremendous value. I don't even bother getting quotes from other people anymore. If Ki can do it, he's my guy. I've dealt with enough knuckleheads to know that if you find a reliable contractor that does good work, you stick with him! read more

Ki is awesome. I hired him to fix a window fixture and Ki did not leave until he was certain the job was done right and that it would not occur again. He did not charge me for doing the "extras" and spent additional time with me providing maintenance tips on how to prevent the problem from happening again. He is prompt and professional in providing quotes and returning phone calls, emails, and showing up for the job. Simply put, he does EXCELLENT work and does not overcharge the client. He is the perfect person to hire for an average Joe like me who is not mechanically inclined, cannot afford to be overcharged from large businesses, yet needs to have repairs done around the home. I will be using him again and have already recommended him to friends and family. Lastly, he runs his business with extreme integrity and old-fashioned principles that are lost in this day and age. If you are looking for a qualified, professional handyman that charges a fair price, Ki is you man!!! read more

What an amazing experience with Checklist Handyman, after a freak accident at home had some of our appliances damaged and left the place in disarray, I was overwhelmed by the mess it left behind, so I asked around and a friend told me to get in touch with Checklist Handyman for them to handle the situation. I have no knowledge of them prior to this incident so I hearkened to my friends advice and got in touch with them, and the first good impression I had about them was the fact that I was barely off the phone when they arrived at my doorstep! And for the next several hours, they worked with expert precision and not only did they replace the damaged sink, fixed a broken pipe, replaced some tiles among others, they also cleaned everything up without leaving behind any trace of dirt! These guys are damn good, and this is coming from someone who is not easily impressed! read more

Ki & Micah had done some work for me before and I was happy enough with their work that I immediately contacted them again when I was ready to have more work done. I sent Ki a list of pictures/shelves to be hung, hooks to be installed, etc; he came the next day (right on time!) and got to work right away. I kept finding things to add while he was here (sorry!) and he was still happy to help, even giving some excellent suggestions for improvements. Not only is Ki an excellent worker, he's high-energy and gets the work done quickly. He makes sure everything is done absolutely right and to your satisfaction and cleaned up afterwards. I'm extremely pleased with this company's work and just sorry I forgot to leave a review last time! I highly recommend the guys at Checklist Handyman for any work you need done. read more

Looking for a great handyman? Look no further. Ki is exceptional! From our first point of contact, I knew I was dealing with a professional who had the expertise needed for the job. During scheduling, Ki was always responsive and took time to follow-up when needed (a rare quality in this business). When it came time to get the job done, I knew he was trustworthy as soon as he walked in the door. This is so important when inviting someone new into your home. He is respectful, personable and conscientious - even down to ensuring that he leaves the space clean once he's finished! Seriously, if you want it done right the first time and you want to feel 100% good about the job, hire Ki. You won't be disappointed! read more

Ki Soh worked for three hours doing minor repair work in my apartment and Airbnb, such as fixing the broken rail of my kitchen drawer (now the drawer can slide in properly), reattaching a loose electrical outlet to the installation of a new ceiling light fixture in my bedroom, Being young and strong, he worked fast and efficiently. There is still more repair work to be done and I will be sure to call him again to finish my list. He does excellent work and has a good, honest, friendly attitude. I would definitely recommend Mr. Soh (Ki) to any person who needs minor electrical, plumbing work to minor repairs to be done around the house. Mrs. F. Wong June 8, 2018 read more

I recently purchased a home in ewa beach and found a bunch of items that needed attention. I contacted the checklist handyman and gave him a pretty extensive checklist to include everything, from plumbing, drywall repairs, electrical outlets not Working and so on and so forth. He not only finished the checklist within a quick turn around time but also gave me some solid advice on how to keep up with the upkeep of my family's home. I would highly recommend the checklist handyman if you want efficient work done at a very cost effective price. read more

Working with this handyman has been nothing short of excellent, and very efficient work in my opinion. I had Ki from checklist handyman fix up a list I made for him to include removing and replacing 4 light fixtures, fixing a broken bathroom light (he replaced the ballast) and re-installing numerous shelves that were either loose or installed incorrectly from the previous handyman. I appreciate his professionalism, and would recommend to anyone who needs a quality handyman to contact checklist. The quality is in the work, Guaranteed! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Mike. We are selling our home and needed the vent in one of the bathrooms replaced. The original vent was super outdated and just a complicated situation. Although in the beginning it seem like it would be a bit of a challenge to replace, Mike was able to put the new fan in. He was super nice and knowledgeable on what needed to be done. If we were staying on the island I definitely would continue to use Checklist Handyman. Thank you soo much Mike!!! read more

Anyone looking for a great handyman on the Oahu island should definitely hit up Ki! Including his professionalism and his vast knowledge of fixing/putting together anything, he is very responsible, super friendly, and was extremely reliable. He set up my ac unit and bed frame which he put together very quickly! He is committed to whatever task is at hand. I 100% will call him again if I ever need anything else and encourage anyone else to do so. Thanks a lot Ki! read more

Ki installed 3 grab bars in my shower. He was very careful with drilling into the tile and made sure everything was level and straight. He was aware of what he put his tools on not to scratch anything, where he stepped and was very respectful. He cleaned up nicely afterwards and was quite personable. He also followed up with a "How's everything?" text a couple of days later. I'll be contacting him again for some other endless projects. Mahalo, Ki Ray read more

Ki did a great job replacing electric water heater! I was out of town when water heater started leaking. My wife called Ki. He came over disposed of the old one. He clean out the area before the install. He had to add pvc pipes for the new water heater. He also added drain pad that go outside instead of in the house. I highly recommend! Ki is very professional! read more
