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!!!

Closet doors installed

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.

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!

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.

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…

I live in an old house that wasn't really updated. For instance it still has a popcorn ceiling, (the last of my concerns) but i have to start somewhere. My question is do you/can you still install crown?

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…

Can you install attic ladders?

Over time, the wood started rotting and paint started peeling off. With El Niño approaching, I wanted to get this fixed. I spent several weeks researching handymen and door repair specialists. Most people I contacted wanted to completely replace both the door frame and the door itself which was quite costly. Additionally, my door and the upper jambs were still in great condition, and I didn't want to be wasteful by throwing those away. One person told me that this sort of repair was too difficult and didn't want to take it on. Ivan responded that he had fixed similar issues before and quoted me a reasonable price. Ivan arrived on time and got right to work. Something that I really appreciated was he took the time to explain step by step what he was going to do. The end result looked fantastic. He was able to replace the bottom jams, paint, and seal everything to the point where it looked like there had never been any damage in the first place. We had rain a week after the repair was done and my door jambs were bone dry the entire time. One thing I do want to note is that Ivan does have a a team that works under him. If you want Ivan specifically, you will need to request him but know that you might need to wait a little longer because he is very popular. I don't foresee having any more door issues since he did such a great job but if I ever do, I will definitely contact Ivan again.

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. We were thrilled with the outcome, and will definitely call Justin in the future for our handyman needs!

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.

I was impressed that he wanted to see the project to check actual conditions before quoting a price, while the other 3 just sent quotes from pic's. His price met or beat the others. Emiliano is concientous and meticulous, does not cut corners, and is as honest as can be. He did make one mistake which cost him additional time to correct, but when it came time to pay up, he immediately admitted that was "on him" and there was no additional charge. He even did a couple little extra things that he did not ask for any more. (I did pay him a little extra, though). The job was completed professionally and done right - I know because I am a retired construction superintendent. I will definitely hire him for future work, and have already recommended him to friends.
