This is a difficult review to write because we really wanted to give Danny a great rating for remodeling our rental unit. But the fact is he walked off the job before it was done, and this was after he blew up at us about a flooring question we had. Not only was this disappointing, but very unprofessional. This put us in a very tight spot to find people to complete the job before our tenants moved in 2 days later. The work was okay up until the very end when you need a seasoned professional to complete the job (install baseboard trim, caulk bathroom sinks, install lighting fixtures, see the attached photos for reference). It seemed to us that Danny took on a lot more than he was prepared for and when we were in the home stretch, he just quit. Danny might be a good handyman for small, short-term household fixes. But if you're looking to do anything larger than that, you'll want to find a true professional who stands by their work and is committed to the very end of the project. read more

Danny installed these super heavy wooden shelves for us and they look amazing. He was so quick and easy to work with! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have something done right! read more

I found Danny on Craigslist a cpl years ago and he's been our goto handy man / fix anything. My wife and I personally use him at our home for little projects around the house and I use him for larger jobs at my restaurant and he's been able to handle any type of job big or small with professionalism and skill. I would recommend anyone to reach out to Danny for any assistance. A nice, friendly guy that delivers on what he says. read more

There were several projects around the house that needed to be taken care of, but we did not have time to get ahold of a mechanic for some electrical work or a carpenter for some wood. It was very convenient to have everything done around the house! Our garage door switch within the house was broken and he was able to easily rewire everything to make within a few minutes. Then we had a job for in the backyard where our patio shade was dilapidated and molded after being exposed to rain/sun damage for the past 25+ years. We did not plan on fixing it that same day, but since it was such an eye soar and the garage door fix was so fast we were intrigued. Danny said he could get it done within a couple hours after getting the proper material and for not much more -- we thought MIGHT AS WELL! Like he said Danny said he got out patio shade fixed within a couple hours. He sanded down the frame to level it out, went to the hardware store, got everything cut within our backyard, & cleaned up everything within a couple hours. Overall, Danny was very efficient, reasonable in price, and fast. We were very happy with his work and we'll definitely hire him again for more work around our old house. read more

Danny is an very talented and able professional. Danny rescued me from a nightmare situation. Before hiring him I had a terrible contractor situation that required me firing the previous contractor. Danny came in and helped finish the job as well as fixed multiple issues the previous contractor had caused/miss planned. He was able to do high quality work while coming up with inventive solutions to problems. Danny is a great guy and a skilled contractor. Do yourself a favor and hire Danny for the full job. I certainly wish I had him working for me from the start! read more

He was VERY rude when I called. Berating me the second I spoke with him. Very unprofessional

Fast response and reasonable prices. Danny's work came out great! I definitely couldn't get my furniture and cabinets put together with out him. 2nd update! Danny helped us with some larger construction. He was super accommodating to us and a pleasure to work with. I'll definitely be looking forward to working with him again. read more

Never finished the work he started, and no response when calling. Also odd behavior.. never again

The last person I hired quit halfway through a job and other companies would not take on a half finished job. I called Danny and not only did he accept the job but he also saved me money by not overcharging on the materials like the other guy did. Thanks again Danny, if I see you out it's capicola and Italian sodas on me! read more

We had a great experience with Danny. He did a fantastic job skim coating, painting and tiling our kitchen. Danny has shown to have great attention to detail and did a fantastic job. Every day he was right on time. His estimations for the amount of work required were good and he had the right tools and experience. We were very happy with the price for the amount of work done. He is a very nice guy and showed a lot of consideration for us and our neighbours. For the skim coating he brought in another experienced contractor who was extremely professional and very friendly. We highly recommend Danny! read more

Danny can! From our first couple of txts to assess if he could, I quickly realised this was looking good. I respected his quick responses and questions - with diagrams over my photos to make sure we were on the same page. He showed up on time and was able to shorten my massive reclaimed bed frame - He also helped me relocate it. Super tidy and satisfied my ocd level of quality. Thanks Danny!! read more

Danny Can The HandyMan - Handyman Near Me

Super nice guy, easy to work with, responsible & timely, and knows enough, not only to be able to put together the madness that is PAX IKEA stuff, but also to strategize solutions to DIY solutions around the house. Already worked with him twice, building 2 IKEA wardrobes, then with custom gray stained shelves, and now looking at building other custom furniture around the house. read more

I called Danny in a huff one morning. NYC summer was dawning upon us - mind you, I've experienced the sweltering heat of NYC without A/C and I was not about to let that happen again. He answered right away and offered a $60 rate for installation. Pretty standard. I begged him to make an addition to his already packed schedule for the day, and he agreed to come by that evening. Danny worked very fast, efficiently, and meticulously. He made sure to examine the window and guided me throughout the entire process, and offered advice as to how to un-install the unit should I decided to move apartments in the future. He's made sure to check in weeks later to make sure the A/C is still up and running. Very professional and very kind! Highly recommend! read more

Danny was great. We had a faux-brick wall that we wanted mortared and painted. Danny was ultra-responsive, the quote was right in line with what we were expecting, and the work was done very well! He definitely knows his stuff, and we would not hesitate to use his services again. I highly recommend Danny! read more

I needed the front window cut out of my house and restored in order to move furniture in. I chose Danny because, unlike other respondents I reached out to, Danny asked relevant questions before giving me a quote--I didn't have much faith in people who gave an estimate without actually asking about the scope of the job. Danny and Peter were on time, professional, pleasant as could be, and got the job done. I will definitely reach out to them for more projects at my home. read more

I hired Danny because I had some projects around the apartment that I had tried and failed at. Additionally I thought his prices were much more reasonable than other handyman companies that I had looked up. I didn't have to commit to a whole half day's worth of work or spend hundreds of dollars. His hourly rate is perfect for a poor student like me who just wants a relaxing, functional home. Danny was efficient and very capable at putting some Ikea shelves into the walls and a shelf into my closet. He also put up some Ikea blinds for me and was able to handle the very weird configuration of my windows. So far the shelves are still in place and holding lots of weight and I am super grateful to have a shelf in my closet finally. I also appreciated that he pointed out and fixed random little things that he noticed (a fire alarm that wasn't fully screwed into the ceiling, etc) Hiring Danny was totally worth the money! He was friendly and easy to get along with and made the whole experience pleasant. Would definitely call him again for other too-difficult projects! read more

Turns out Danny Can. Had him build some custom cabinets for my office. Came out AMAZING. I'm more than a little OCD, so it was incredibly nice to see someone who takes the same amount of attention to detail as I do. Couldn't be more stoked on the work. Easy to work with, came into the office outside of office hours so that it didn't interrupt our work, and didn't leave the place a mess. read more

Dan is the man. Whereas I am sure he tires of hearing that, it is accurate. He is a clever carpenter, polite gentleman and fastidious worker. He is capable of handling large projects, but also does not shun the simple request. I really appreciated his prompt communication and his fair estimations. I would highly recommend Dan and will certainly enlist him again. read more

Danny was awesome! Replied to my quote in less than an hour, and was able to help me out the same day. He helped me take down my through the wall AC, pack it and bring it from my third floor apartment all the way down to the first floor for FedEx to pick it up, all by himself. Really impressed, since other companies I requested a quote from were suggesting two people for the job and charging me accordingly. Fair price with a two hour minimum per job, and he came prepared with a hand truck and tools. He was great with our dog, who kept getting in the way. Definitely calling Danny again for any future projects! Thank you, Danny! read more

Very professional, talented and reasonably priced. Danny set up custom made shelves that looked deceptively simple, but we're in fact tricky to get installed correctly. End result looks great. Thanks! read more

Danny was friendly and easy to work with. He was able to quickly assess and address and issue with my kitchen. I would call him again!

Efficient, focused, and solution-oriented - Danny got a whole bunch of small carpentry fixes done in a short time period while being friendly and easy to communicate with. Responsive to email and text. Easy to schedule and to get quotes - Thanks Danny! read more

Danny fixed a couple spots on my ceiling that were cracked and sagging due to water damage years before. One crack was so bad my ceiling was about the fall down. The work Danny did was phenomenal! There is absolutely no evidence of a repair. He was very professional and flexible as far as my schedule. You should hire this guy!!! read more

Danny did a great job--arriving not just on time, but early--and got right to work putting together various pieces of furniture in practically an instant. Was easy to work with and fair price. As there slogan says, he can! read more

Danny is awesome. Installed a chandelier for us, and fixed the hinges on a broken door, so now it shuts properly. A laid-back, competent guy who doesn't overcharge. Plus, he arrived exactly when he said he would come! read more

Friendly, responsive and great work. Danny came by to help hang my TV on a brick wall and install a bunch of blinds in my apartment. For both jobs Danny was quick to respond to my calls, showed up soon after and worked quickly and cleanly. I'll definitely be calling him again with any work I need around the apartment. read more

Responded to my message quickly, arrived on time. Good rate. Thorough. Fast service. Personable. Thank you!

He was a really nice guy, responsive and came quickly. However, when putting up fixtures for curtain rods he forgot to attach one of the screws (to be fair when I texted him he came back). That rod and the fixtures are all pulling out the wall now (a couple weeks) and I only have sheers on the rod - not even anything heavy. He didn't replace all the old fixtures with new - when he did, there was a long screw and he damaged the wall which had just been painted. I get that it might have not been possible to do anything else, but I could have done it badly myself for free and he should have told me first that that was going to be the outcome. I have to get my painter in now to do a touch up. This was a super simple task and I am surprised at all the good reviews. I asked him to have a look at a ceiling fan that was squeaking a bit - he took it apart and couldn't find the problem (that is fair enough and he said he might not be able to from the beginning) but now it has extra problems - the original squeaking and now also a clicking sound and a wobble. read more
