    Gym room

    I contacted Matthew on November 3rd about a few things that had to be repaired in the house (kitchen ceiling repair after a leak, bedroom ceiling and wall repair after a leak, hall closet demolition and wall repair, speakers installation) and he stopped by the next day to give me an estimate. The estimate was very detailed and reasonable so we accepted it. Matthew and his team started working on the project right away and it took them 4 days to complete it. They arrived on time every day, answered all of my questions and explained a lot of things to me. They were very thorough with each of the repairs. I liked how promptly and professionally Matthew and his team - Ryan, Brian and Steve worked every step of the process. They cleaned up the areas of the repairs at the end. We're very happy with how they handled all the work and we'll definitely use their services in the future again!!!

    I hired Matthew from OC #1 Handyman to come and install some closet doors for my sons room. From start to finish was extremely professional and great with communication. Came to my house and gave me a quote and was out the next week to install. Was happy with his work and pricing was extremely fair. Will definitely hire Matthew and his team again whenever I need a handyman. Highly recommend!

    5* Review is not enough for the service, value and appreciation I have for Matt. I started a business last year and needed help with building my inventory from scratch. I had the concepts and ideas as to what I needed for my casino party rental company, but lacked the knowledge and skill set to make my tables, stands, etc. When I had contacted Matt, I had contacted other handyman's, but he had responded back and was readily available to help me with my projects. He has been swift, diligent, patient and understanding as to what I've needed for my business. Fast forward a year later, he is my go to guy when it comes to anything related to the business I need help with. Success is a social activity, and without Matt's help, I don't know if I would accomplished what I did in my first year in business. He has provided me with extreme value for the business and is irreplaceable. If you are looking for help with anything, he's the guy.

    Mathew and Ryan did an outstanding job repairing our window trim and drywall. They arrived on time and were ready to work, equipped with all the necessary tools and materials. They were very professional.

    DO NOT USE the Command Strips to hang your framed pictures!
    Stephanie L.

    TL;DR Just hire Matthew! DO NOT USE Command Strips to hang your framed photos! A frame fell and did this damage to the window sill. I reached out to several people here on Yelp. Matthew was the only one that asked for more pictures than I originally sent. The original thought was to replace the entire ledge. The quote was in line with what others sent, but I liked his communication best. Hiring Matthew was the smartest thing I did! He and Ryan were on time, super clean and tidy, kind and personable. We decided the entire 5' of sill did not need to be replaced. Screws, sanders, paint, caulk?, etc, etc, etc (I'm not sure of it all which is why I called Matthew!). It came out looking fantastic in less than an hour. I would hire OCs #1 Handyman again in a heartbeat!

    I have a sunroom with a leaky metal roof. would like it replaced with corrugated metal (14 x 20 feet) and mount siding on the sides (vinyl or hardy). have you done this before?

    Hi Brian, I haven't done this kind of repair and we don't do any roofing repairs. Wish you best of luck with this.

    Do you carpet tile installation?

    Unfortunately, we do not do tiling or carpeting.

    Do you repair windows?

    Sorry, we don't do window repairs. I would check your local glass/window shop.

    Hi do you electric work like doorbells and fire alarm installs?

    Hi Massie, we have the ability to help with those items but would need to take a look at everything.

    Do you do any sort of carpentry? We have a tall media/armoire that we'd like to cut in half and use as a table top media center.

    Hi there, we do some carpentry work but are somewhat limited due to not having a work shop with a shop saw. There are things we are able to pull off and make but we would have to take a look as it would be a case by case situation.

    Do you charge a hourly rate for small repairs?

    Hi Barry, we actually do both. Depending on the job. We have flat rates for some items like faucets, ceiling fans, TV's etc. We do charge an hourly rate for other stuff like painting, picture hanging, furniture assembly.

    Do you replace Fascia and eaves?

    Hi Chubby C, we don't repair eaves and really stay away from fascia due to being oversized and not belonging on ladders that high. There are times we've been able to help with some single story stuff but I stay away from any roofing repairs and…

    Hi Joanne, you can still install crown molding even if you have popcorn ceilings. Might not be ideal but it can be done. The issue would be when it comes to the molding meeting the ceiling, because there is the popcorn texture, although you can…

A coat closet had water damage prior to our purchase. After a mold remediation company ripped out wet dry walls, baseboards, floor and closet door, we got price quotes from two handymen to rebuild the closet and outside wall. We hired Ivan based on his 5-star reviews and competitive price quote. He showed up at 11 am and worked hard until 8 pm to finish the job in 1 day. He also patched ceiling holes made by the mold remediation company and repatched a kitchen wall that was badly done by another vendor. Ivan's finished work looked amazing, as if there were no prior damage before we hired him. We were so pleased that we hired Ivan again to replace an old porcelain undermount kitchen sink (2 bowls/2 drain holes) with a bigger stainless steel drop-in single bowl sink (1 drain hole). I picked a sink to purchase but thankfully, Ivan measured the old sink and counter cut out space and said my choice would not fit without him cutting the counter. I then bought a different sink only after Ivan approved its specifications and it fits perfectly in the existing space. Again, Ivan worked nonstop for 4 hours to remove the old sink and install the new sink. After removing the old sink, he saw that part of the granite counter in front of the sink was weak due to existing cracks in the granite. He immediately went to Home Depot to buy wood to reinforce the counter before installing the new sink. He also resealed all around the sink including below the sink to make sure no moisture will go underneath. It's this kind of attention to detail and very thorough work that made us very glad that we hired Ivan. On the same day, we also asked Ivan to replace a failed water shutoff valve under the bathroom sink. Again, his work was perfect and clearly showed he is knowledgeable and does excellent work in many areas of home repair. We already have other home projects in mind for him to do and we highly recommended him to our family and friends.

A couple of guys had said they couldn't do it, and another was very brusque in his responses. Justin was thorough and polite! He came by today, was super punctual, and tackled the problem right away. Not only did he fix the door so my parents wouldn't have to purchase new doors, he took the time to vacuum and even used a pen to get all the dust/hair/debris that had gathered in the track over the years.

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.
