Handyman Unlimited

I was surprised with their reply. I understand nobody wants negative feedbacks but those should be taken as constructive criticism and professionally taken action. Took a screenshot of their reply and uploaded it too. Just wow fellow Unilocalers, see it for yourself. Be wise when picking your next contractor. By the way Mr Sammy, I am not an idiot and you don’t have the right to call anyone names. Good luck and may God bless and change your heart
My intention is not to ruin business but to share experience whether it be positive or negative. Please don’t curse anyone. «A foul tongue reveals a lot more about you, than the one you are using it against».

We called them to get an estimate for replacing the front steps on our mobile home. They came out on Tuesday, said they would call with a price on Wednesday, and, to date, we have heard nothing from them. This is Saturday. A simple call to let us know that they needed more time to prepare the estimate would have been great!

Handyman Unlimited is an excellent company. We have used their services several times. Tom and his team are very professional. Highly recommend.

overrated. way better options out there…

Thank You Tom, and the crew of Handyman Unlimited !!! I referred my mom to you when she told me she was wanting an Alum wood patio cover. From the first contact with Kay and setting the appointment to the very competitive and fair bid you guys did not disappoint. My mom is happy therefore I am happy. The work looks super tight and high attention to detail. I will refer more your way. THANKS FOR A PROFESSIONAL JOB WELL DONE!!!

I was very happy with the work handyman unlimited completed on my backyard. They put in a cement patio as well as a walkway that connected. They also installed a new sliding glass door and covered patio with recessed lights. Everything looks great and the cost was very reasonable. The owner Tom is very nice and great to work with. I would definitely recommend them.

Handyman Unlimited has done right by me. Kay is a saint, and dealt with all the issues and problems with professionalism and class. You cannot go wrong by hiring Handyman Unlimited!

I love this place!
Very informative staff and very helpful. If you need something done be patient, this business is VERY busy but they stay on top of their work if you stay on top of what you need. the owner is very sweet.
Keep in mind the workers that come to your house do not always relay the information BACK to the women who do the scheduling and call backs, if you have a problem CALL. Do not wait for the worker to get back to you… they are doing 10 – 15 jobs a week so do not blame the business for this. The women in charge of the scheduling work hard to keep appointments and call back. Put on your adult pants and keep tabs on your home improvement.
Do not sit around and wait for it, if you have an issue CALL. They will always be gracious enough to help.

Used these guys once to redo a water fountain. At that time, it took almost 2 weeks out to get them to come and fix it. They’re too busy for projects that are time-​sensitive. I want to redo a custom entertainment wall and make a wet bar… had someone come out for an estimate only to tell me he has to have the owner come out for the estimate. Then scheduled the owner out which was almost 2 weeks out… he came, took a look… I liked him, he seemed professional… but too busy. He said he’d get me a quote but it’s been over 2 weeks and haven’t heard anything. Won’t ever be calling them again.

I had high hopes for this business because their location is very close to my home. I emailed them to request a quote for several repairs needed for the fixer upper that I recently purchased. New light/​ceiling fan installations, new toilet installations, fireplace remodel, and other repairs. They sent a worker out to assess the work that needed to be done and that was it. I never heard from them again. I followed up with an email informing them that I never received the quote that was promised. Nothing. Crickets. Don’t waste your time.

Handyman Unlimited came and installed a whole house fan for us and did a great job!
The install took about 3 hours and they cleaned up after themselves once they were done — something that most companies have neglected to do in the past. The best part is that since the fan was installed we haven’t had to turn on our AC one time — even during our latest heat wave. My house cools down to the mid 60’s overnight and by the following evening it’s only in the mid 70’s. I love this thing!
Thank you Tom and Handyman Unlimited, my only regret is not doing this sooner!

Look!
It’s a bird!
It’s a plane!
It’s…
HANDYMAN!
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, believe the hype. Handyman Unlimited were courteous, prompt, professional, knowledgeable, and they did wonderful work in my upstairs bathroom. My bathroom did not have any work done to it since the home was constructed in 1971, so there were a couple of surprises that popped up, and that’s when I feared the worst, possibly sinking thousands of $$$$ into what I thought was a little remodel. But Handyman came through, they were creative and solved all the issues without opening up a wall and calling in the heavy equipment.
Look, no one said calling a contractor was fun or easy. And if you’ve been watching too much HGTV and seeing their happy faces while they do demolition, you’re fooling yourself. Be realistic and flexible, and do your homework! I did what I could on my own (thanks YouTube), then I called in the pros. Now my bathroom looks spectacular. I will most definitely call them again for the next job!

I hate to disagree with all the other happy customers but this is a genuine review!
I called Handyman Unlimited to help my parents who are seniors living in their home. My dad needed a sofa leg reattached as well as several other things around the house that he would have fixed himself but now his eyesight is too bad so he’s having to seek help. The Handyman Unlimited guy spent a few minutes reattaching the leg using a small metal plate (that my dad says won’t last) and didn’t even drill holes before putting the screws in, then charged my dad $ 107 for this one repair. My dad opted not to ask him to even look at any of the other things he wanted fixed. $ 95 per hour is too steep for most folks, and definitely out of my dad’s price range. We’ll keep looking for a real handyman.

Handyman was referred to me by a friend who was very satisfied with their professionalism and work. I gave them a shot and was also very happy with their work. The owner (Tom) called me the following day and agreed to come and see the work I wanted done. He was very professional throughout the entire meeting and even suggested ways on how to save money. He was not like other contractors that want to just scam. His suggestions were very good. There wasn’t anything that his company could not do. Not only did they remodel my bathroom but also put some new French doors up and worked on some backyard lighting. The workers were also very professional and courteous. Would call them back for another job.

Phenomenal job on my backyard patio. I live in a townhouse with no access to the backyard except through the house. These guys pumped it through the front door and out the back. Poured and finished 250sqf patio right up to to back door with ease. Great job guys! Thank you!

Handyman Unlimited is professional and gets the job done for their quote and on time. My CPA firm’s building regularly needs handyman services. We recently called them out to replace large outside windows and to sound proof several office. I will not hesitate to call hem for the next job at the office or at home.

I’ve only had very good experience with Handyman Unlimited. Twice, now, they have sent technician/​repairmen to my locations and they performed to the best of their ability. I truly appreciate the ‘window’ for arrival that they extend, so that, I can arrange my day instead of sitting around hoping they will arrive soon. In both cases. .. I was delighted when they arrived sooner than expected. Another reason to applaud Handyman Unlimited is they determined the problems. .. explained how they happened and what I could do to, possibly, to prevent re-​occurance in the future. This may seem like a small thing, but, it gave me enough knowledge to explain to family members what THEY could do to avoid the inconvenience and expense in the future. Their pricing is fair. Their punctuality is great. Their service is very good and they clean up after themselves.

We have used this company a few times and have been very pleased with their work. Their employees are always on time and do a great job. I have nothing but good things to say about them. They may be a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

The office personnel has their act together with email and phones. They were always returning my requests with very timely responses. I had a few problems with the quality of work, and was amazed when the workers were instructed to fix everything without my having to threaten to go to court. Again, I was very impressed with the way the workers came back and fixed everything. Kudos to Moses and Tom for the redoing the shower the way I wanted at their expense. Everyone showed up when they were supposed to and called ahead of time to make sure the timing was good for me. The time it took to do both my bathrooms was within a totally acceptable time frame. All the workers always acted in a very professional way. They worked with me to accomodate me on my very limited budget. They may have charged a little more than other people in the industry but it is worth it to have honest, ethical, and hardworking people in my home. All of them were very good about working with my dogs in the house. I would highly recommend them for any work.

My rating is actually 3.5 stars. I loved and hated Handyman Unlimited in La Verne, CA. This is a small business with what I can tell is a «hands-​on» owner who works on projects himself. He seems to have two clerical staff, a few construction foremen, and some workers. I really loved the fact that this business is completely legit with proper licensing and insurance. Yes, they charge a pricey $ 90 per hr but I am willing to pay this for their willingness to be law abiding and on the record. There’s way too much illegitimate work going on out there (and you know who you are) where people hire unlicensed, uninsured dopes who are cheap with questionable skills and this ends up driving the legitimate businesses into bankruptcy. Handyman Unlimited does small and big jobs — anything from fixing a stuck door to full remodeling. I hired them for a kitchen and bath remodel. The job was done very nicely and timely (in about a month but the house was vacant) and priced reasonably because they didn’t do this work over several months like other contractors. Now the not so good: The foreman who was sent to my house seemed to be very knowledgeable and skillful. I say «seemed» because although he said that he’d be onsite doing the work, he was hardly ever at the house. When asked about this, he simply said that he didn’t control his schedule but the office did. So why didn’t he tell me this upfront when I asked??? He was very nice and very friendly but also had a very high opinion of himself and would talk down to you sometimes in this nice but condescending manner (very annoying). However, I must say that the worker, who worked under the foreman, was very good. He was straightforward, honest (gave him my house key with no issues at all), highly skilled, reliable, efficient, clean, etc. He did what I asked. I liked the the worker very much; pretty much everything you’d want in a contractor. On the other hand, the clerical staff was a disaster. They can’t deal with emails or Word documents (year 2010). Literally, I had to let them know by phone when I was sending them an email because they didn’t know how to deal with all the junk emails they were getting, so my emails would get lost in the Inbox. And having them type up a contract and email it to you? Forget about it. We actually had to type up our own contract and send it to them so they could send it back to us as the «official» contract. They also sent our contract to a wrong email address which is totally not cool. I’m sure they would prefer to do business via fax machine. Fax machine? Did I mention it was the year 2010?!? Overall, would I hire them again. Depends on the job — small job (1 day or less) probably; big job that can get complicated like remodeling, probably not because the clerical staff wasn’t up to speed. If the owner trains up his office staff, I’d probably give this company a 5 star rating.
