one of the repaired exhaust vents - flaps are no longer clanking and the newly installed mesh has no gaps

We hired Paul to fix some clanking fan exhaust flaps and also replace the steel mesh covers. These exhausts are a good 25ft off the ground, so not the easiest to work on. We got scheduled quickly after exchanging some texts and photos. On the day of, he came on time and even brought multiple mesh options for me to choose from. He was very thorough and efficient with his work. Most importantly, he understood why we were needing this work to be done and made sure he fully addressed the problem. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend!

Paul was on time and did a great job installing all of our ceiling fans. He also did a great job of cleaning up all of his work. He also installed a bathroom mirror. I would definitely call upon him again for future work.

Paul did a great job. Came to my home on time, finished installation as scheduled with professional work. Thanks.

He built and hung 2 cabinets in 2hrs!

I've gotten multiple quotes and delayed installation. Paul was extremely professional, quick and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

The beautiful wall panels I had Paul install

This company is one of the best choices I've made. I had an emergency leak from my toilet and I was getting all these ridiculous prices but I found Paul on yelp and he gave me a reasonable price. He came the following day to changed out my toilet. He was so nice and professional that I had him install decor wall panels in my bathroom. It turned out amazing!

Bathroom lights and  faucets replaced and fixed!

I put out a project request on Yelp for a handyman to do a few things at my rental property and while I received several flat quotes on my inquiry, Handybox replied quickly requesting to come by the property to get a better idea of the job and give a more accurate estimate. Immediately I was happy with that honest response that he wanted to see first before giving me random price. Paul came to check out the hole in the bedroom door. I asked if he thought it was necessary to purchase and install a new door or if he could patch and paint it. He said he could patch and paint and would look just fine and save money there. I was super happy with that as the other guys just suggested I buy a new door which would be $100+ then the labor they would charge for removal of old door which+ install new would be another $100+ ! I went with what Paul suggested of course and so happy he did a great job! Good as new! He also removed an in-cabinet microwave and installed a new one, replaced light switches, removed 9 floating shelves and patched and painted the holes in the the walls in my small available time window of 3 hours! He was able to do it all well and efficiently. 2 weeks later my tenants moved in and brought attention to a couple other things that needed to be handled. Since Paul did such a great job and was honest and helpful, I texted him again for his help and he did not disappoint. He was able to coordinate with my tenants to meet to change out multiple super high ceiling recessed light bulbs, 4 smoke detectors, and 2 bathroom faucet sinks, shower heads, and valves! Yes- he does plumbing jobs too! The man is a jack of all trades and I'm so happy we found him- we will be reaching out again for any future jobs and recommend him to any and all who are looking for a handyman to do it all. Quality work and well priced. Thanks, Paul!

Drywall Repair Finisher - BEFORE:  I was worried that the plumbers cut the drywall so close to the baseboard that it wouldn't be recoverable.

Drywall Repair Finisher

Update (September 2026): I reached out to Luis again for another drywall repair, this time after…read moresome drywall was damaged by a water heater leak. As always, Luis did a great job. He opened up the affected area and carefully checked for any remaining moisture before removing the damaged drywall. He then replaced the drywall and repaired the area, leaving everything looking clean and properly finished. I really appreciate his attention to detail and the quality of his work. I would definitely recommend Luis for drywall repairs and will continue to use him for future projects. His prices are always reasonable. Thanks again Luis for another job well done!

I had a positive experience with Luis back in 2020 where he fixed a bad skim job by another…read morecontractor for me with a bunch of patches, and I thought Luis' skills were pretty superior. Over the years I have been doing DIY fixing of more bad spots around the house but I also work so I was never going to get around to all of it. I decided to call Luis back recently because I didn't want to do it myself anymore and I want to repaint fresh non-patchy walls. I hired Luis to reskim two bedrooms and two accent walls and some other miscellaneous spots that I added after he started working at my house. Luis was at my house for 3 half-days (1.5 in total) before telling me he was finished with the walls. I was (still) happy as a clam at that point and paid him in full for what was completed, fully trusting that the work was done skillfully based on my prior experience. (He was coming back one more time to finish the misc. stuff that I added on and I would pay for that part then.) Anyway, imagine my horror when I checked on his "finished" work and saw imperfections everywhere and tons of sanding dust still left behind on the walls, switches, and even mud on the door knobs. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves from here with brief descriptions of what's being shown. -Pictures 1-3: Some of the imperfections from the first time Luis said he was "finished." -Picture 4: His first fix-it visit(half day). He was supposed to find all the imperfections and patch them (the yellow highlighter spots), except he was patching bubbles with more bubbles. I had to patch all the spots again with my own compound and added a ton of other ones that he missed. Took me two full nights. -Pictures 5&6: His second fix-it and final visit (another half day). He was supposed to sand over all the patches and walls to leave them with a smooth & uniform finish that's ready for primer & paint. This was how I found them after he left. I sent him these pictures and told him to not come back as I had given him 2 chances to fix and he failed both times. There was no response from him. -Picture 7: I made only a partial payment of the balance on Luis' last visit because part of the remaining work was him making the corners of a ceiling overhang crisp, the corners are crisp but somehow the overhang is now squiggly when that wasn't the problem before. -Picture 8: I had taped up all my trims before Luis came as I didn't want any mud/compound to get on them, but I thought my crown molding were safe. They were not. He had busted them pretty badly with his electric sander in 7 spots and dinged them in at least 10 other spots but those were minor and I was able to superglue them back together. I did take on the repair of the major dings myself because I wanted to tape all of it up before he came back for more sanding. Luis and I had good rapport and I actually liked talking to him, but once the job took a turn for the worse, he never acknowledged that he didn't do a good enough job. He instead said things like, 1. "You're not supposed to look at the walls with a light from the side like that" and "I've never seen anyone look at a wall like you." --Yes, technically he's right, walls usually have paint on them which would have made these imperfections painfully obvious even when looking at them straight on, but until there is paint, this is how drywallers check for imperfections and fix them before they get permanently sealed with paint. (I had two painters (who also skim coat) come over for quotes and this was how they both checked to see how much prep work they would have to do before painting). 2. "I could fix these walls 10 times and something will still come up."--it really shouldn't if he did it right the first time, he's supposed to be a professional, not a DIYer like me. 3. "You've got to be kidding me. I'm at a point where I want to just refund your money and get out of this insanity"--after he came and saw all the patches I added to the walls (that he missed). I know what he was trying to imply and still gave him my electric sander to use so he could finish the job. With all that said, guess who is still stuck sanding the walls now after paying Luis to do the job and saying I didn't want to DIY this anymore. And with all these patches that I had to add to cover up his mudding imperfections/bubbles, it's looking like I'm going to end up with patchy walls again, which is exactly where I was when I handed Luis this project. What a joke. And the crown molding that I fixed up? That still needs to be repainted as well. I wasn't going to leave this review, but after several weeks and my walls still needing to be finished, I thought I would share my experience.

This can be a pretty invasive job if you do not know what you are doing. Matthew and his assistant (his name escapes me right now but equally respectful and nice) did an amazing job! I replaced the old plain door with a six panel door that matched the rest of the updated home. He bought the door, I supplied the paint for the wall and door that I had left over and he took it from there. In less than a day, job was finished, the door works perfectly, the drywall repaired and repainted, area spotless and overall craftsmanship perfect. Highly recommend!

Timely communication, inspection to give quote visit was professional and a quote was delivered promptly 2. Matthew does the job himself, it is not some private equity owned iPad guy type operation that outsources to someone else 3. He takes great pride in his work and it shows - after they were done, you could not tell that this was something that wasn't installed by the builder, it matched the look we wanted, to like ~100% 4. Once completed, the workspace loft area was as clean as when they started work, this is an attention to detail often overlooked by some others They weren't necessarily the cheapest quote but the quality of work and craftsmanship and delivering exactly what they promised, no fuss, no drama, is something to be cherished in this day and age Overall, highly recommend them if you have anything to be done in your home that you want looking good and professional and without regrets later Will definitely use them again for a future project

From the very beginning, Raul was extremely responsive. After I contacted him, he quickly arranged a time to come by, inspect the damage, and provide an estimate. We were then able to schedule the repair work very quickly. On the day of the appointment, he arrived right on time and started working immediately. Throughout the entire drywall repair and painting process, Raul was very careful, methodical, and detail-oriented. He completed every step properly and professionally. Even though this was only a small project, he never treated it carelessly or rushed through the job. He applied multiple coats of paint and matched the texture carefully instead of doing a quick patch job and leaving just because the repair area was small. That level of professionalism really gave me peace of mind and confidence in his work. After the job was completed, he also cleaned up the area thoroughly. His pricing was very fair and reasonable as well. I will definitely hire him again for future projects.
