the owner, Ken was extremely knowledgable. He returned my call quickly and showed upper the jog promptly. The work was grade A and done in a timely fashion. He knows a lot more than he advertises and was able to repair other items. read more

Ken continues to do amazing little projects around our house! Fair price and quality work, he installed a garbage disposal for us recently and it's flawless! Can't recommend Ken enough! read more

Amazing response time, repair work, and was very kind to us. We're so lucky we found you. Thanks for reaching out!

Mediocre experience and high prices with a side of irritable. It's like a different person from the one in the reviews showed up, but it was him. Yes, he basically knows what he is doing, but I had more work to do around the house and hired someone else and was more satisfied. read more

No need to look further because Ken is your guy. Knowledgeable, professional and fairly priced. Ken came out to our building and sized up a broken door repair -- then he proceeded to get it done simply and efficiently. Our whole building is grateful to him. read more

When do you know you're an adult? When you're giddy over your hooded microwave being vented outside. Our smoke detectors are wired and when one goes off, they all do. The one near our kitchen is super sensitive and more than once I've woken my husband up from a dead sleep when it went off. Even with multiple windows open, a fan circulating air and the microwave fan. Said smoke detector was replaced because I accidentally broke the first one trying to turn it off. I'm sure our neighbors think we're awful cooks who burn all our food. I found Ken through some reviews on here and a recommendation from a co-worker. He was responsive, reasonable, and went through in detail his plan. If you don't properly flash it, you can end up with water issues. Ken removed the old microwave, vented the new microwave out the side of the house, and extended our backsplash, a project we'd not gotten around to doing. We were and still are very pleased with his work. He was also kind to our cat Mel who insisted on supervising his work up close and personal. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Ken again. read more

I've hired Ken to work on a couple projects for me, including installing a brand new storm door, and repairing another door which had been damaged by heavy winds. Ken's work is excellent. Plus, he responds to opportunities quickly, and completes projects in a timely manner. Ken also has a wealth of knowledge - and it's helped a lot while navigating the hurdles and complexities of home ownership. read more

Ken is awesome. I asked for his help with my unique issue - our roof hatch door desperately needed replacement gas struts. The door was so heavy to lift, and a previous contractor messed them up terribly to the point where the hatch door only opened up about 6 inches (we were unable to crawl out of it). Ken saved the day - he researched and sourced the correct struts for our hatch door (which was a challenge in and of itself) and completed the work in less than a few hours. The hatch door finally opens fully again, and it's so light that we are no longer breaking our backs pushing it up and open. Highly recommend Ken, he's smart, creative, and does seriously quality work for a great price. Thank you Ken, we can finally enjoy our roof again! read more

Ken is a skilled handyman. Easy to work with and fair prices. I intend to continue using his services in the future.

Amazing. Contacted him about a window. I thought we'd have to redo the whole frame. Turns out it just needed a couple of parts. He was beyond fair and honest about the work. He came out within hours and completed job. We have three buildings and I will definitely be contacting him again. read more

Ken removed an old A/C unit (we got a mini-split system and did not need it any more) and beautifully patched inside and outside of our home (see uploaded photos!)

He was very easy to work with and communicative throughout the whole process. He even fit us in during a very busy time for him. We were SO impressed with his work and would definitely use him again and recommend Ken for your project! read more

Price was very fair and he was neat/tidy and respectful, which is hard to find these days. read more

Ken built and installed an IKEA kitchen in our rental unit along with a few other projects. He did a beautiful job! He was communicative, fair, kind, and did great work.

Ken is trustworthy, responsive, VERY reasonably priced, knowledgeable in a lot of areas, does great work, is efficient, COVID compliant and a really nice guy. Ken repaired two exterior doors at my dad's really old house that had warped/swelled and got them all set for winter. The doors now shut securely and with ease. He also had to repair a lock because of the shifting. Ken does not over sell (charge you for more than you need) and tries his hardest to make it work for you and your budget. Ken was also the first contractor (of several we contacted for estimates) who actually wanted to look at the doors before giving his estimate. We will be hiring Ken again to replace exterior door frames. I HIGHLY recommend Ken! read more

The trim and baseboard look beautiful! We are grateful for Ken's great work and excellent turnaround time! Thank you Ken! read more

Ken is an honest, hardworking and honorable person. Not being a Chicago local, I relied on Yelp quite a bit. After talking to several handyman operations on Yelp, I have decided to work with Ken. While most of the other companies have a pretty complicated estimation or scheduling process, Ken is very easy to work with. He charges a very reasonable hourly rate and you pay for the time you need him. Simple as that! He addresses everything I need to be done including washer & dryer installation, bi-folding door installation, door adjustment, breakers swap, caulking and paint touch-ups. I literally ran out of things for him to do. Ken is my go-to guy now and will continue to give him my business. He is definitely a "highly recommended" in my book! read more

I had an open hallway and French doors purchased off the internet and asked ken to frame and install the doors. Ken did a superb, detailed job.

I will be using his services again in the future. read more

Ken repaired a door jam for us and did a great job! I would recommend him for anyone looking to do small-medium remodels or repairs.

Good honest work and pays alot of attention to detail. I used Ken for the first time to install a farmhouse sink that although it had some bumps in the road, ken managed to pull it off and it looks great. I used him again to install a vent running from my over the counter microwave outside. He came and was able to complete the job with a day. His time and monetary estimates are on point to what he quotes in the beginning. This is my go to for things I manage to mess up or don't have time to mess around with around the house. I am very satisfied with the work he has done and will continue to use his services in the future. Just a heads up though, try and book early because he is pretty busy and books up quick. read more

I have been a local realtor on Northside for 20 years and my standards for hiring contractors are high. I solicited 5 bids and Ken was not necessarily the lowest but one of the lowest (others seemed sketchy). So I hired Ken for ceiling fan, bookshelf, and faucet installation. Like most contractors, the key is they are professional: scheduling fast and easy, show up on time, with correct tools, complete job in professional manner, and honor the quote. Seems simple right? Believe me, its hard to find. Ken met all those goals and was professional and job done well. So guess what? He is my handyman for life and I recommend him to all my buyer clients now. and to you too! Call me if there are any questions, I would be happy to help. Jeff Kropp, The HomeBuyer Agents, 773-805-9305. I should also add Ken agreed to return to finish one last thing (a shelf was missing and had to be reordered from seller). read more

Ken did a great job with our bathroom remodel! We knew we had a crack in one of our floor tiles, and after pulling it up, we saw some extensive damage to the sub-floor as well. Within a week, Ken pulled up all of the tiles, replaced the rotted wood, put down a new sub-floor, re-tiled the whole bathroom, installed a new vanity (which required additional plumbing work), and raised the mirror and lights. He was very professional, and kept us informed of any issues or suggestions that he had while working through everything. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else who is looking for a dependable contractor. Thanks Ken! read more
