Reviews First Call Handyman
March 2026
Mike came day of to help with an issue with my front door. The lock on the knob wasnt working/was loose, letting cold air in. He arrived before the scheduled time and was in and out under 30 minutes. Will definitely keep his contact info handy for future handy man needs!
February 2026
I hired Mike to fix the coax input into my 3 year old tv. No one in town would work on a tv at all. Mike was prompt with his research and follow through. The part ordered needed some modification so labor was a bit more than estimated but, still within reason.

So I made the mistake of removing my ceiling light while trying to change a light bulb. It looked like the light fixture was going to fall on the floor so I was calling all around to get a handyman to fix it. Finally, Mike answered and he came right on out. His emergency fee was reasonable and he fixed my light quickly. He was sweet, provided excellent service and I won't hesitate to use him again.

Mike is the best. He responded quickly and came by the day after my fence blew down after a heavy windy storm. He moved the debris debt out of my neighbors yard and then came back after a few days to completely restore the fence. Excellent work.

Mike was a great tasker! He completed furniture assembly and moved several items (including large furniture pieces) up a level and others down a level. Then wrapped up with breaking down a mess of shipping boxes and hauled away the cardboard so we wouldn't have to deal with it. Super friendly, respectful of our home, and productive with the time allotted. Very positive experience.
