 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've had some awful experiences with other contractors but decided to give Handyman Homes a shot and braced for impact. However, I was in for a pleasant surprise. What an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Sean/Shawn was knowledgeable and took pride in his work (which is very scarce these days). Thank you, to the team. I was really impressed by their great communication and the respect they showed for my time and my home even though it was a small job.
