    I called Carlos to discuss a deck-restaining project required by my HOA. He was very knowledgeable,…read moreexplained that he had completed many similar projects, and provided a clear quote after I sent him a few pictures of the deck. On his first visit, Carlos thoroughly cleaned and sanded the deck. He also went above and beyond by power-washing underneath it, an area that desperately needed attention. I had not asked him to do that, so I really appreciated the extra effort. When he returned to stain the deck, the finished result looked fantastic. Carlos was prompt, honest, upfront about pricing, and clear about what needed to be done. I am extremely happy that I hired him, and my deck now looks great and meets my HOA's requirements. I cannot recommend Carlos highly enough. He does excellent work and is an even better person.

    5/5 - Highly Recommend!…read more I had such a great experience with "His Hands " Handyman Mr Carlos Barbaro and couldn't be happier with the results! He helped me mount a stained-glass window I've been wanting to display and he handled it with so much care and precision. It looks absolutely perfect--secure, level, and beautifully showcased. He also installed two new toilets for me, and the whole process was seamless. He was professional, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. Everything was cleaned up afterward, and he made sure I understood how everything work before he left. Reliable, friendly, reasonably priced and skilled--exactly what you want in a handyman. I'll definitely be calling him again for future projects! Highly recommend.

    I'm giving them two stars because they did 1/4 or 1/2 of the job that I asked and they quoted me to…read morecomplete (you decide how much they actually did). Here are the details. I reached out to them last year to replace the batteries in our wireless & cordless shades in our living room, as well as rethreading some wire for one of our outdoor landscaping lights. I specifically told them that they would need a 30ft ladder to do the shades (as well as a description about the shades and that I would provide the batteries) and described the issue with the landscaping lights. The lady on the phone said that would be no problem. Fast forward a week and the technician they sent decided that he wanted to see the room because he didn't believe he needed a 30ft ladder. Upon his inspection he sure did need the larger ladder, and he said that it would need to be a two person job instead of a one person job (so $600 just for the shades). I could buy an appropriate ladder for that price, so I said no his estimate was no longer competitive and we wouldn't be paying for the company's services of time to address the shades. Then I said if he felt up to looking at the landscaping lights he would be more than welcome to do so, but we would be expecting a much lower price since they didn't plan for the shades appropriately. So he takes a look at the landscaping lights and says he can do it for "less" than what we were originally quoted for the shades and light (which was $500). So I said have at it then. I should have said take a hike! He "fixed" the light but didn't try to test to see if it was actually fixed. Then comes time for the bill, and sure enough it is less than $500 but it wasn't reasonable considering he ditched out on half the job and didn't want to even test to see if the light worked. Now why am I writing this review a year later, and why am I still steamed about it? Because we got both emails and mailers the other day asking for us to give them business again, even though a supervisor never called us to apologize or refund even a small amount given the subpar service. I totally get that people need to eat, and earn a living wage, and I'm fine with paying for that; when you don't do the job though, why should I have to pay the higher price when if I knew it up front I would have gone with someone else. Well... lesson learned. I don't recommend their services, and won't be using them ever again.

    Avoid this franchise. They want $500/sheet to install drywall. Thats $2,000/hr and incredibly…read morehigher than the national average by about 20 times. Thats without paint and materials.

    Ulises and team were a critical element in the remodel of a 3 bed 1.5 bath townhome in Round Lake…read more He and his team were professional and efficient. All work completed at a fair price within 30 days. Project completed in two phases, first removal of all carpet, laminate floor, kitchen, old hot water heater, bathroom fixtures and various items left behind by tenant. Second, install kitchen, hot water heater, paint all three levels (ceiling, walls, doors & trim), reinstall some new and previously existing bath fixtures, reinstall closets and install new trim & shoe. Turn around time, communication, pricing and quality of work all EXCELLENT. The townhome looks great and will bring top dollar!

    Thoroughly professional, well-equipped with the right tools, equipment and experience…read more Safety-minded. These things matter to us and we got them all in Ulises Alvarado of UBD Handyman Services, who listened carefully and assessed our needs before installing decorative shutters to our home's exterior. The shutters were heavier than usual and he arrived with scaffolding (not just a ladder) for the upper level, demonstrating that he understood the scope of work. These gents work well as a team. The job was done with precision, quickly and at a competitive price. Ulises' cheerful manner and willingness to offer advice, when we asked, was icing on the cake. Did I mention he's an excellent communicator, responsive and punctual? He is! We'll bring Ulises back for our next job.
