Christian did a great job installing a water supply line to our new refrigerator. The installation was clean and simple. He explained what he was going to do ahead of time. I compared pricing and availability. He was responsive during the quote process and on time. Christian is a good communicator throughout the entire process. read more

I called to get an estimate for installing bathroom ventilation fans. The experience was completely unprofessional, and indicated that they are not taking on new work. The gentleman answered the phone with "Whaadup!" I stated that I would like an estimate for an electrical installation. He, in a mocking tone, mirrored my words exactly, "what sort of electrical installation would you like an estimate for". Then, as I began to explain, he interrupted me, saying, "I don't wanna do this, I'm retired", and hung up the phone. Not sure why this business thinks this practice is acceptable, but I definitely won't ask for any work from them now. read more

I called. Christian called back, and we agreed that I'd email him a list we needed completed. I do so promptly -- ten routine items. Didn't hear anything back for two days. Called and left message. Again, no response. Now the DE FACTO coronavirus lock down has taken effect, and so I won't get anyone to take care our rather routine projects. Unsat. read more

Christian's Handyman Services - Chris - Handyman Near Me - Poway, California

UPDATE: Christian responded to my review. I guess this is a he said/she said situation at this point. I'm not going to go back and forth with him but I will post a picture of how one of our hinges was carelessly installed by him with the shims left sticking out. Original Review: We called upon Christian to hang two doors for our master bedroom. Our original appointment was on Friday at 9:30, he text my husband at a few minutes before he was supposed to arrive and let him know that he could not make it due to car problems. Not the greatest first impression but life happens so we agreed to reschedule to today. Christian arrived this morning about 15 minutes late. He got to work on our doors. My husband went upstairs to check and he realized that Christian had cut a hole in the wrong door. My husband mentioned this to Christian and Christian acknowledged the issue. The only solution was that he get a different type of doorknob. Christian left to Home Depot to get an alternative type of doorknob. Accidents happen and I understand that but here is what I have a problem with. When he was all finished and it was time to pay he charged us an extra $20. When my husband asked what the extra charge was for he said it was for the doorknob that he had to buy due to HIS mistake. He told my husband that when we returned the doorknob that we originally bought we would get a refund. While that is true, we now have to be inconvenienced to make an extra trip to return hardware because he made a mistake. Also, he should have run that by is before he decided to buy a new doorknob. I do not agree with this business practice. Also, he told us there is a $7 charge to use a credit card. That was not advised before the job. My husband came to tell me and I told him that I would write a check including the $20 for his mistake because I am not going to get into a fight about $20. Pros: - He took the old doors so we did not have to worry about their disposal Cons: - He is unprofessional - He canceled our first appointment - He was late to our second appointment - He made a mistake and cut a hole in our door - He charged us to fix his mistake - He charges a $7 fee for credit card transactions read more

Christian did an outstanding job for us. We recently purchased a new range and "over the range" microwave. When the appliances were delivered, we were told that they couldn't install our microwave because of a top of the range/bottom of the microwave issue. I called Christian and he came right over and came up with a viable game plan. He shortened my cabinets (above the microwave), installed the microwave, and retiled in the needed areas. Christian was the utmost professional and a real pleasure to do business with. We definitely will have him back to take care of some additional home improvements for us. read more

Excellent handyman, I highly recommend. Many different skills and very dependable.

I called Christian to trouble shoot a light that was not working at a rental we have in Poway. Within 30 minutes he was at the rental, had the electrical switch on his truck and the problem was fixed within the hour. I will be calling him again soon. Thanks Christian! read more

I hereby proclaim Christian the best handyman I've had so far -- and I've had some great ones. I called him on the basis of the Yelp reviews. I had nearly a half dozen things that needed to be fixed, including securing a mirror to a dresser (I didn't know it had been unsecured for 5 years and was a reason I called him), putting in a new thermostat, fixing one screen and making and putting in another, and fixing some shelves etc. He was very fast on his response, did a superb job and after at times trying some of those big handyman companies his price was reasonable. NOW I'm in entertainment and I know sometimes when someone says "reasonable," it means the tendency is to undercharge. No, in the case of handymen (or handypersons) there are companies that do put a big FEE on top. He gets an a plus on response, showing up on time, fixing the problems (including in some ways I didn't think of). HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and I'll be using him as THE person if I need the help. Also, he needed a few things and he zipped out the door to the Home Depot neaby, zipped back in -- and as I write this sooooooo much is now fixed in my Penasquitos condo. read more

Great work! I purchased the wrong size toilet and he exchanged it for me. I felt comfortable enough to give him a key because I had to go to work and everything turned out great. Will definitely use again! read more

Christian responded very quickly to our call and was able to quickly and efficiently fix our two doors in our garage. They were sticking due to the heat and he did a fabulous job fixing them - we don't have to push with all our might anymore trying to get in or out! We would not hesitate to call him for any other home repairs that may come up. read more

Christian is a wonderful person and he is very skilled at what he does. We had a leak in the plumbing and he did a thorough inspection and figured out where the leak was coming from. Our shower upstairs was leaking "behind the wall" so a simple fix ended up becoming a very time consuming repair. He was very patient throughout the process and explained what he was doing step-by-step. Then he made sure that everything was good before he left. He also did not charge us "an arm and a leg" for his job. Considering how extensive and time consuming this job was, we thought that his fee was very reasonable. While working on this project, we got to know Chris well and we can say that he is a very honest and friendly person. He doesn't do much advertising but he gets many clients through just word of mouth which is a testament to the quality of his job and his great personality. I have worked with a few unfriendly and shady handyman before but he is someone you can trust. You can't go wrong with him. Trust me. read more
