We hired Sam to install some child-proofing anchors. We had some scheduling conflicts, but he was very communicative throughout it all. When he finally made it out, he was kind, efficient, and even fit in an outdoor light installation. Overall, we're very happy with his work and professionalism. We would be happy to recommend him to others and use him again, should we need it. read more

In an era where ghosting is common, Sam responded within a day to my request to let me know that my roof tile and dry rot repair project was out of his scope and suggested I contact a dedicated roofer. I really appreciated his professionalism and will certainly reach out again to him for future projects that are in his scope! read more

Sam is reliable, professional and great quality for a fair price! I appreciate having someone local that I can trust to do anything I'm not 100% confident tackling myself. Highly recommend if you want honest work and fair pricing! read more

We've had Mr. Russo do Five Handyman Projects in our Home in about 12-15 months He is always Superior and very Through. He Installed a new Microwave which required quite a bit of planning, new mounting holes, new mounting bracket, exhaust fan flipped and vent sealed. The Pre installation of Measuring and testing all the New Microwaves functions was "Value Added". We've given his contact info to Family, Friends and Neighbors. Mr. Russo is Our "GO TO" Handyman read more

Heard back from Sam really quickly. Good price for the service requested and the work was done quickly and well.

I hired Sam to install a dryer vent in my garage! Phenomenal service and care given! Definitely an improvement to my home! Sam even let my 2-year-old watch the installation! read more

Sam Russo has always popped up when I'm searching for a handyman or need something serviced within my home. My dishwasher has been leaking from the air gap all onto my counter whenever I ran my dishwasher. Super frustrating! Reached out to Sam last week and within less than an hour I got a response with quote. Excellent!! And he was able to send out someone the next morning, Nick. Although Nick didn't show up on time he was sure to communicate that and did a great job clearing out the clog while educating me with how it occurred. Apparently a lot of food/gunk got trapped over the years. Imagine a clogged artery. YUCK! Quick, easy, & painless. Nick made sure to run our dishwasher to ensure no type of leaks were occurring underneath our cabinet nor anything from the air gap. It's been over a week now and I've successfully ran it 3-4 times. Price was a little hard to swallow for this job but for peace of mind it was worth it to us. We don't mess with plumbing. Lol. We will certainly be return customers! read more

The praise you see here is well-earned. Sam was a terrific find! Communicative, personable, and highly competent. Clearly his skills are well honed, his experience is deep. He knew exactly how to fix my old pocket door that was in rickety shape. He did a complete job, including dismounting the door, troubleshooting it, and reinstalling with its trim and even caulking it. Yeah, I'm impressed! I'd say you're crazy not to hire him for household repairs read more

I reached out to Sam because I had 2 pocket doors that were failing. I knew just by talking to him he was very knowledgeable and good. He explained his pricing very clearly and was very reasonable. He came at the appointed time with the proper parts. He was able to make the repair and a couple adjustments in under 30 minutes. Very professional, courteous - took his shoes off - and knowledgeable. Absolutely would recommend to anyone wanting competent, professional work done. read more

Sam replaced our garbage disposal for a fraction of what a plumber charges. Same day service, high quality workmanship and great customer service. Thanks Sam. read more

Simple summary: he's my go to handy man now for all things. He fixed something I thought was unsolvable in under an hour and was super friendly and awesome. Calling him forever read more

Mr. Russo did a great job patching and painting some spots in our drywall and adjusting our cabinets that no longer closed properly. He even noticed a few spots I did not mark and fixed them-- it looks brand new. He was very detail-oriented, knowledgeable, kind, and professional. I recommend his services. read more

Thank you Sam. Unfortunate that my door issue was not within your scope, but i greatly appreciate your honesty and sincerity in knowing what you are comfortable doing or not doing. Thanks for the recommendation. Hope to call you again for other projects. read more

Sam replied that my project was "beyond his scope" but it was only $24 in parts (from Amazon) and 1 hour in simple labor most anybody could do. So he's either incompetent or dishonest. read more

Sam is an excellent professional. He showed up on time and had the work done and charged exactly as he quoted. I highly recommend him. Thank you, Sam, for doing a great job! read more

Sam took care of a few needs in prepping house for sale - faucet, ceiling fan and toilet repair. Was on time, worked efficiently and explained some things to pass onto the new owners. Great value and easy to work with. read more

My front door had become nearly impossible to open from the inside because the top corner was touching the frame. It was also difficult to lock because the deadbolt no longer perfectly lined up with the strike plate. I was starting to panic! I really thought I was going to have to reframe the entire door or be trapped forever, forced to exit through the garage! I'm a single woman homeowner. I've had many repair people over the years, a few have been on the super creepy side (especially this one hot water heater guy...), so I reached out to a few handymen through Yelp to evaluate their profiles and responses in an attempt to get a feel for and filter out the guys who likely didn't know what they were doing or might be creepos. Sam was one of the handymen I contacted on a Saturday afternoon for a quote. He responded right away and gave me a totally reasonable quote to adjust the door and offered to come out on Monday. There were other similar quotes from others who seemed equally professional and non-creepy, but I just liked the "vibe" I got from Sam, ya know? His guy Nick arrived right on time that Monday and came up with a fix. I immediately trusted his judgment and presence in my home. Not a single ounce of concern with this one. Within minutes of his arrival, my door was swinging open and closed like butter and the deadbolt turned as easily as a brand new lock would. I'm absolutely thrilled! My door hasn't functioned this well in YEARS! He also did an adjustment of the strike plates on the door between the garage and house that had been annoying me for a small additional charge. I literally could not be happier with their service and wish I'd reached out a lot sooner. If I ever need something done that's in their wheelhouse, they'll be the first guys I call!! read more

Sam is awesome!!! I am super grateful to have found him and his company! He has a wealth of knowledge and experience, and even better, he's a super nice guy who's also honest, reliable, and responsive. I highly recommend Sam, and I will definitely be calling upon him again. Thank you, Sam! read more

I am so grateful to have found Sam. I needed a lamp swagged, a pocket door fixed and a toilet wax ring replaced. Sam responded quickly, provided a detailed and fair estimate, and scheduled me right away. He did excellent work on my projects and I am so pleased with his results. I highly recommend Sam Russo to anyone needing a handyman. Thanks Sam! read more

Sam has been a huge help! He helped repair/replace a fallen shelf, a set of broken blinds, and a broken garbage disposal. All in a couple short hours. He was upfront with my quote, fast with responding, on time, and sent pics of his work after it was done. He even took the time to examine an issue w the toilet (the flange was broken and toilet was leaking at the bottom), but he was professional enough to refer me to someone else as it was a little outside his scope. I really respect that he didn't try to fix it without being totally sure he could. Some others might do it and make it worse! Thank you Sam!! I'll definitely use his services again! read more

I needed some help with a ceiling fan I had installed. I reached out to Sam who followed up within 20 minutes of my request for a quote and had someone come out the next day.

We got new shelves in bathrooms, hammocks hung from the ceiling, and a closet revamp with new closet rod and supports. Sam is very polite, professional, fast, and friendly.

Sam and Nick are the best. Quick response, easy to schedule, reliable, fast workers, and fair pricing. I have had them build furniture, replace light fixtures, replace faucets, adjust/repair doors, and much more. Thank you Sam and Nick! read more

I recently again contacted Sam to install light fixtures, a ceiling fan, door and cabinet adjustments. Sam was not available but his assistant Nick was available. I am so pleased with their professionalism and their work. I already scheduled an appointment to have a security door placed. I highly recommend Sam. Sincerely, Stephanie S. read more

Wonderful communication and service! Very professional. Wholeheartedly recommend and will definitely use their services again.

Omg, I found my all rounder handyman who can do all he said he can and fast too. Great communicator, great prices, easy going, thorough and efficient on doing his job. I didn't think he can do it all in one day but he did and early too so I can pick up my son from school. Created me a different location for my attic access (was inside my closet who would want insulation always falling off to their clean clothes) moved to hallway, installed two backyard patio posts, and installed my bifold closet door. read more

Don't ask yourself if should, just hire these guys!! They are THE BEST!! I reach out yesterday and they were on it TODAY! Nick fixed my doors and locks with amazing efficiency and did a perfect job. Not only are the good but they are honest and trustworthy. I can't say enough. I will hire them anytime I need a handyman. THANK YOU!! You have no idea what a wonderful thing you did. read more

Really disappointed...been trying to book Sam for two days now and can't get a response; I only got an initial response from my Yelp inquiry. I'm sure he's great but I wouldn't know it. read more

I did not use him. THE reason: he doubled his quote after he had submitted it. I ultimately used someone who completed the whole task in well under two hours and was happy, it appeared, with the payment which was very similar to Mr. Russo's quote before doubling it. read more

Sam arrived on time, was well prepared for the specific job, evaluated a complicated bi-fold door problem, worked to find a solution prior to the remount, and completed the job satisfactorily in less than an hour. He was direct and respectful. It was the first time we hired Sam, and would definitely hire him again. read more

I checked out reviews on a few different handymen, and settled on Sam. He was awesome! He finished things much faster than I thought and even did some other things we needed too. Thanks Sam! read more

Nick installed a security door and a couple lock sets for our home. He was prompt, friendly, and professional. Excellent service!

Sam and Nick are responsive, courteous and provide quality services. We've done a few projects with them and we're happy with the results.

Texted Sam to see about getting a lighting fixture installed. He answered me in a few hours. He seemed very busy yet very organized. His teammate was sent for the task, super nice guy! Job was done easily, efficiently and cleanly. Highly recommend these guys!!! Only downside is they aren't cheap. But I guess you pay for what you get. read more

Fixed a pocket door, 2 doors, 2 wonky drawer, and cat door through wood door. knows his stuff and quick! Understands old houses. Amazing

I'd give more stars if I could. These folks were so patient when we had problems with our appointments. Always kind and thoughtful and when we were finally able to get our lights installed, they did a fantastic job! Highly recommend for handyman needs! read more

I had a problem with a couple of bedroom doors that wouldn't fully close. Nick of Sam Russo Handyman came to the house to fix the doors. He explained why the doors wouldn't close and what he could do. Nick was very professional and got the job done. Doors now work great. While he was at the house, I had him give cost estimates of other things that needed fixing. Sam Russo Handyman will be the business I will turn to the next time I need a handyman. read more

Man, I really don't want him to get busier. But that's not the right thing to do, think, or say. Sam is friendly, knowledgable, and professional. He also happens to be upfront with what his expertise is, what jobs he can, or can't do. And that's perfectly respectable. He responds quickly and is well priced. I want to hire him again once I create a "honey do" list in hour-long increments. read more
