Came unprepared, made a mess, left a mess! Hosed off the windows. Even the covered patio ones! Left me with water spitted, smeared and greasy windows! No bucket!! Used cheap laundry soap and a laundry softener. (left them) Buffed the windows!!Stood on a ladder that was too short. Showed me a picture of our dirtiest window by my husband's work shed. Left hoses out and one was still on. Your choice!! read more

This was a strange situation. They were supposed to be at the house by 4.00 arriving after 4.30. I was expecting a van or a truck, instead a car with two young men, of whom neither spoke English arrived. They asked where the cleanout was, I showed them...they then called their boss so I could talk with him. They said the clean out was not plugged. I asked about snaking the toilet, I was told they would have to remove the toilet to snake it. I asked about putting it back together i.e. the wax ring? They had one that morning but they had already used it, so thank goodness we didn't do that. I said to tell me how much they wanted for the work they had done and I paid it...all this by telephone...I found it very unprofessional, and felt bad for the two young men. read more

They were quick to respond to my request to modify a kitchen cabinet to house my new microwave/oven combination that would arrive for install within a few days of my Yelp request. im very pleased with the end result, and according to the appliance Installers "they did a very nice job exactly fitting our requested dimensions" . I also had a couple of annoying drawers that were broken that leaned inward & offtrack, a 3-door bedroom closet door that I could never get to stay on trac. They fixed all at a very reasonable price. I'll definitely plan to utilize these handymen again and glad to refer them. Thanks Gabriel, etal. sincerely, Iris read more

Gabriel was a fair person to deal with. But upon set up of my gazebo the crew ruined some of my property and gazebo was pretty much damaged some of the points weren't bolted on fully. Not to mention some of the screws that were suppose to be bolted on the concrete weren't fully bolted to the ground or simply broken off. Dangerous if you have kits running around. They also left all their trash in the backyard. Beer cans, subway wrappers. Chinese food with food still inside. They took a few days and charged a fair price. Gabriel did replace my 200 chairs with 20 dollar ones from Home Depot. What a steal. So would I recommend this business, it's a no for me. read more

Great job, responsive over text, and reasonably priced! Converted two toilets from no-touch to conventional flush, and installed new door hinges in about an hour! read more

Quick service. First to respond. Fixed and refinished dining room table. Good communication.

Responded quickly and worked efficiently. I had a doggy door installed and I was pleased with the price and work.

Gabriel found a way to get the job done, and I'm very happy with the work. Highly recommended. Thanks!

Bad value. I reached out to a handful of a local handymen for a small project. Per the instructions, the shed would require three people for 3-4 hours of work. I provided a link to the unit and offered plenty of information. His quote came back 3-4 times higher than all my other quotes. pro tip - always to get a few bids lol read more

I've never seen someone so young work so hard, Gabriel and his crew, mostly Gabriel, tore down my rotted and aged looking pergola and installed this wonderful, clean and modern looking pergola for me at a decent price. He was willing to work with me and met all of my demands. Thank you Gabriel for this amazing pergola which will hopefully last for years to come! read more

Agreed on price and time/date but they were a no-show making all kinds of excuses. They wasted my day & time by not showing up at the appointed time yesterday to move three items. Need to blacklist them from Yelp. read more

We needed a door replaced from the home into the garage. Partly because Gabriel was four hours late for his 10:00 am appointment I was not able to be there so my mother stayed. She is a senior citizen and did not think to check all his work. The deadbolt could not even be thrown because it's misaligned, there were hand prints in the paint on the trim, and the paint job on the garage side was sloppy. I called and texted multiple times over the course of a week to see if he would reschedule a time to fix his work but it seems like he got his money and he has no interest in making things right. I feel like he took advantage of a senior citizen. We are moving and had no choice but to hire someone else to fix his mistakes. read more

Very prompt service. The quality of the workmanship was A-1. Excellent value as well. I gave Gabriel a call before 11am he arrived at my house at 1pm. read more

Gabriel was prompt on his time and was very reasonable with the charges. He did a clean job and was friendly. I will definitely hire him for any future services needed. read more

General Handyman Solutions - The gas grill that Kevin and Marvin built! - Handyman Near Me

Took more than a day to hear back from anyone, then I get four separate responses. I have a minor job replacing some wood trim around my garage door, and on an upper floor window. And that was that. Too busy, "I might be available in the next week or so", and I don't do second floor work, ...no response from the fourth. Disappointing. read more

This company and Gabriel are very unprofessional. He and his partner showed up to the my house 40 minutes late and reeked of marijuana smell. I should have just sent him away right then but I had a small job so I took a chance. I needed the door rehung on my TuffShed and I supplied the materials. He did a lousy job rehanging the door - poor craftsmanship, poor joints on the framing and they left a pile of mess for me to clean up. They couldn't even have put it in my trash can right next to the shed! Really? I told him that I was disappointed with the quality of his work and professionalism as he just looked at me with that "who cares, I'm stoned" look. I could go on but I would never have him come back or recommend him to anyone. read more

We reached out to this company requesting assistance with assembling a Gazebo we purchased. He agreed to come on Saturday at 9am. Saturday comes, he text at 8:40 to say he was picking up helpers and would be on his way. 10:45 I called him and he told me that he was finishing another project and could not come until 1 pm. Very unprofessional and in considerate of our time. Poor communication. Would not recommend you wasting your time read more

On February 12, 2021, I contracted Gabriel Mendoza, aka General Handyman Solutions (of Fairfield, CA), to work on my backyard fence and side gate, at the recommendation of my neighbor who "googled" fence work. I reviewed Mr. Mendoza's site prior to commencement of work, and the reviews were positive. I asked Mr. Mendoza if he was able to do the work based on the pictures; he assured me he could. However, after the second day of work, it was obvious he was not skilled to do the work. I asked him three times, and each time he told me he could do the work. Being frustrated that he was not understanding what I wanted done, I showed my brother, who is an engineer, and is also my handyman, several pictures of the work, and my brother knew he was doing everything wrong. I told Mr. Mendoza to work with my brother, but Mr. Mendoza didn't feel he needed his advice, and told my brother that because he's not the client, he would do it his way, because it's his warranty. On the fourth day, I knew this was a waste of time and money by keeping Mr. Mendoza on, so I terminated his service. Even after Mr. Mendoza no longer worked for me, my brother still had problems with the work he left behind, causing more money to be spent and additional labor for my brother. Mr. Mendoza did not research what was needed to complete this job, properly and cost-effectively. He lied about his ability to do the work from the beginning, and his work proved that. He's very sloppy and not mindful of the work conditions; leaving nails sticking out from the wood, and wood panels were cracked because of the wrong size nails used. If anyone asks me for my opinion of Mr. Mendoza's work and work ethics, I would definitely give him a "FAIL"!!! read more

Really wonderful folks! They replied to my inquiry quickly and were able to send out a handyman the same day! Reasonable prices and quality work- I'll be sure to use them again! read more

I hired this company to install a fence after damage from the wind. Gabriel was confident his team could do the work and we signed a contract. The quality of work was subpar and it was obvious he was inexperienced with fence installation. He admitted as much half way through the project when we expressed our dissatisfaction. The contract was terminated part way through the project due to poor quality. Both parties agreed to terminate and he was paid for services completed. This company might be able to do basic handyman jobs (I do not know from experience). However, I DO NOT recommend this company for fence install or repair. read more

Gabriel was on time, wearing a mask, did a great job. I'll definitely hire him again and recommend him to my friends!

Quick response and quality service. Gabriel came on the same day I called. Up front with pricing and good service. Totally recommend! I will be keeping him for my rental. read more

I hired General Handyman Solutions to install a kitchen faucet, garbage disposal, and bathroom vanity.

He completed his work efficiently and picked up and cleaned after himself. I would highly recommend General Handyman Solutions for your next home project. read more

Gabriel was on time & did a great job of repairing the drywall. It was a small drywall patch that only needed to be taped & mudded. I will paint myself. He had the lowest estimate of $150. I had 2 estimates at $250 each and 1 at $449. Because it was located in a corner behind furniture, I didn't want to spend very much. The job took a little over an hour. He removed the drywall cutout that was there & added wood behind the wall to ensure the drywall was flush with the wall. He said it would not look right to mud the gap. I would hire him again. read more

OMG....I've never seen a guy so young worked so hard!!!! I bought 90 computer tables for my classrooms that both have 1 and 2 stories high. Gabriel, and his 2 coworkers worked their asses off assembling the tables and placing them in the 2nd story classrooms! Mind you the tables ARE HEAVY...about 50 lbs just the tops. They worked from 7am til 5pm nonstop not even taking a lunch break. I love that they came in with masks. And they cleaned up after themselves as well. And his price is soooooooo reasonable and worth it!!!! WILL DEFINITELY HIRE HIM AGAIN in all my future projects, at work and in my home!!!! Super reliable, punctual, professional and just downright hard worker. A true God send for all your handyman job!!!!! read more

Thank you Gabriel for responding quickly and being prompt this morning. Sorry I overslept and didn't answer the door! I am glad you were able to stop by this evening and lay down the crawl space cover for our flooring installation. Really appreciate your help with such a claustrophobic project. Reasonably priced and kept on your promise. read more

Gabriel was able to come the day I called him. I had a leak in my pipes, so I did not have running water in the house. I appreciated him coming the same day. He arrived in the evening and started the job but was not able to finish because of time constraints and all of the stores closing early due to Covid-19 so we could not get all of the supplies we needed. They came back first thing in the morning and did a great job finishing up the job. They were patient and willing to work with us. read more
