Peter has been our handyman for two of our properties and has been absolutely fantastic to work with! Knowledgeable, considerate and very reasonable, he's handled every repair/renovation beautifully and in a timely method (not an easy thing to do with an older home!). He's the first person we contact whenever anything needs repaired and he's never let us down. Highly recommend! read more

Pete handled our entire remodel for our second home in Northeast Philadelphia. We faced challenges due to the age of the home and Pete's experience, creativity, willingness, and determination ultimately solved some difficult issues. His rate is reasonable, and his creativity/flexibility is priceless. We are now moving forward with the 2nd phase of our remodel, the basement. We are looking forward to working with Pete again and we co-sign his mission statement. read more

Working with Peter was hands down the best experience I've had with any home improvement project. He is friendly, honest, and reliable. I hired him to fix some ceiling drywall that had been damaged by a leaky roof. Peter responded to my initial message immediately, made an appointment to come by for a look, and sent me a very reasonable estimate soon thereafter. After all this, there was no question in my mind that I would hire him, and everything about the process emphasized that I made the right decision. Peter's work is impeccable and efficient. And I have NEVER had such clear and consistent communication from anyone I have hired to work on something in my house. With Peter, I always knew where we were in the process, and when I could next expect him to be by. I will absolutely, 100% hire Peter in the future for other projects. He is a total gem! read more

Peter was great to work with and we'll definitely be calling him for help again. He made as many visits to get the job done without spending too much time or doing unnecessary things. He was on time every time, extremely personable, knowledgeable and left us feeling confident the job would be done well. We had a lot of small additions around the more emergent situation that Peter initially came by to look at and he took all of those in stride and took care of it all. read more

I have never met Peter in person but know that he is great. He has worked on my rental property over the years and is flexible on payment methods, good with communication, and does honest work. He repaired a faucet for us most recently and we have been satisfied with all that he has done. He may be a victim of his own success, however. When I contacted him recently, he was very busy and couldn't schedule for some time out from the date I called. I would gladly use him again if the timing worked out and you should consider yourself lucky if you are able to schedule something with him. Take it and run!! read more

Great communication and very friendly. Changed out my faucet and light easily and quickly. Will definitely use them again for other jobs. Highly recommend! read more

Peter has been amazing to work with. I'm remodeling two condos in Philadelphia and I'm in San Diego. He keeps me informed, gives me updates and considering how far I am away things have been very smooth going. I highly recommend him! read more

Like previous reviews have posted, Peter's a really nice guy. I had a leak from the upstairs bathroom as well as a damage wall from the plumber looking for my stack pipe. Peter did the drywall and painting. He was always on time, pleasant, and he kept me informed. read more

Very disappointed. Initially asked Peter to do what I thought was a simple job of swapping out 6 light fixtures and hanging a door. He came back with a higher estimate than the others, so I delayed the work by several months while I was dealing with a sewer repair. Contacted him around the holidays only to find out he was booked. He recommended his assistant, Jon. Jon came out today (three hours late). He then spent two hours trying to assemble one ceiling fan and trying to remove the base of an old one. It became clear to me that he wasn't experienced in these types of repairs, which he or Peter should've told me in advance. I told him I was going to hire someone else and he was nice about it, but still frustrated by the time wasted. read more

Peter did some outdoor painting for us and some mortar caulking. Peter did a great job at a reasonable price. He communicates well, and is reliable and dependable. read more

I was so happy to find Peter. I have never met him in person, but have been using his services for about a year at a property that I rent from afar. He is honest, trustworthy, straightforward with his project assessments, careful and clean when projects are underway, good with communication, and my tenants like him and feel comfortable with him. If you're looking for an honest, hardworking contractor, you've found him! read more

Peter has done a number of jobs for me and my husband over the past few years, installing a wooden kitchen countertop, stair railings for a twisting stairwell, exterior door trim repair, installation of lattice and iron gate and installation of a large, heavy mirror in an awkward location. We've been very happy with each of these projects! Peter is very easy to work with, responds quickly and takes the time to explain the details of what the job will entail. Peter is honest and makes sure that the job is being done as requested and agreed upon. We'll continue to contact him as needed! read more

I'm very fortunate to have found Peter Macleod. I've hired him for various projects over the last 5 years. One time in particular, he gave me an alternative solution which saved me thousands of dollars. I received a quote from another contractor which Peter advised wasn't necessary and in fact, there was a better, cheaper alternative. Sure enough, Peter was RIGHT. His solution to the problem was more than adequate. Overall, Peter's service, communication and professionalism is SUPERB. I would advise anyone who needs handyman work to hire Peter Macleod immediately! read more

Peter did drywall repair and painting for us, and we couldn't be happier with the result. He was professional, reliable, trustworthy, and friendly.

His work is impeccable and we are extremely happy with the services he provided. We will hire him again! read more

This is a long overdue review. Peter McLeod is smart, timely and hard working. He is also a really nice guy. We have had him do work for us three times and each time the results could not have been better. One of the jobs was to turn a closet into a pantry and build a book shelf for cookbooks. Results were fantastic. And let me not forget to mention, his rates are reasonable. Ned read more

Too busy to take on my job. Too busy to respond. When he finally responded, excuses excuses.
