Steven is great! Very professional, knowledgeable and flexible! He will quote you a fair rate for the work you need done. Heβs been my go -to handyman for a number of jobs in my condo over the past few years. I call him (and though im soon moving will still continue to call him) because i trust him. I would very highly recommend Steven if you need a handyman for work in your home!
Steve was great! We had a lengthy list of small maintenance jobs (and a few jobs for our HOA too), and Steve juggled them all, clearly communicated with us, and finished on time. Would recommend!
