My Handy Guy

Oscar installed our air conditioner and was fast and did a great job. would recommend him!

We had Oscar replaced a toilet upstairs. During his visit, we noticed the shower handle was leaking water and asked him to put in a new handle. No problem, he went to the store and got the parts, installed it for us and was on his way. Weeks later we noticed watermarks on our ceiling and called a plumber who showed us pictures of water spraying inside the wall, behind the shower handle where Oscar had put in a shower handle. It cost us LOTS of money to fix the plumbing and then we had to hire a dry wall guy to patch up the ceiling. I understand mistakes happen so I called and texted Oscars the pictures and he said he would fix it but he eventually ignored my texts. Wish he could at least fix his mistakes.

There prices are unbeatable, knowledge is untouchable, super friendly .
The process to get in touch with him a little disappointing, but maybe that is because he is so busy. Definitely worth the effort. He treats customers like family.
Highly Recommended

I spoke with Oscar and scheduled a meeting for the very next day, at the time that he preferred, even though it wasn’t the best for me. I rearranged my evening and the guy didn’t show.
Very disappointed, but I should have known — Unfortunately I didn’t read the several other similar reviews here on Unilocal.Unreliable.

Oscar was great. He had the best prices and I called and compared with at least 12 different handyman.
He did some bathroom work for us and he really knows his stuff.
We are going to call him again and have him do some demolition and remodeling work in the kitchen.
He’s a nice guy and you can tell he is honest, genuine and has integrity. He has a lot of experience with plumbing and can do just about anything. I’m going to start a list on small things around the house that also need a little fixin for the next time he comes out.

Unfortunately, I did not give enough weight to other Unilocalers. Similiar to others experiences, Oscar made an appointment, did not show up, and did not return phone calls or texts. I am disappointed because he had quoted great prices.

I had scheduled an appt for Oscar to come to my home to do some work. I texted him my address and he texted back «confirmed.» He never showed up. I texted him twice after that and never responded. Very disappointing.

I was ready to give Oscar a great review. He got here quickly and worked, with his sons, to work out the kinks in our new house. I appreciate punctuality and I definitely appreciate a family business.
Things were going smoothly until he stepped on the edge of our deck and broke one of the pieces of wood. He told me he’d fix it once I got the piece from Home Depot. I called him at least five times asking for him to come through and each time he was too busy. Eventually he gave me the old, «Don’t call me, I’ll call you when I can do it» spiel.
It’s been four months and not a peep from the guy. All of this time my pregnant wife and I had to gingerly watch our step each time we exited the sliding glass door.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND !! I am a repeat customer !! He fixed my bunkbeds that WERE VERY COMPLICATED !! It took family members 4hrs just to set bottom bunk only !! I knew MR Handy GUY could do it !!

My husband and I wanted a new entry door. Removal of the old door was fine. Installation of the new door… not so fine. We couldn’t get the frame straight. Finally after a hour of frustration I was on Unilocal looking for a handy man. We found Oscar! He had our door level, plumb and working great in less than 10 minutes. He is our go-​to-​guy now when we need a handy man. Thanks Oscar!

Oscar took care of about 20 various jobs for me around the house. Wow – he is amazing! Super fast, great price ($ 75/​hour), knowledgeable about almost everything, and with a wonderful positive attitude to boot. I’m going to call him back to install some ceiling fans and light fixtures, and a bathroom fan and vanity. He is absolutely the best and the handyman I’ve been looking for forever!!!

Oscar was responsive to my phone calls, did an excellent job installing my bath tub door, and cleaned up after his work was done. Professional work at reasonable prices. I would highly recommend him.

Oscar was pretty awesome! He looked at all the things that were wrong with my house and gave me some sound advice. I could tell that he wasn’t looking to make money from me, instead he was telling me what I needed and didn’t need to fix before selling the house. He even helped me replace a light that was stuck in the socket! A true gentleman, thanks Oscar!

Great great speedy service. This guy knows his stuff. I shopped around got a few estimates, with this economy I didn’t want to overpay. I was shocked to see how reasonable his price was, and I have to admit I was skeptical, but moneys tight so I took a chance. He did the job quickly, no messing around and to my surprise he had all of the parts in his truck (when I say truck I refer to his ambulance, so let ur neighbors know in advance everything is fine, otherwise they’ll be at your door checking on u). The guy is really knowledgable and professional.

If I knew it was this easy to get things fixed around the house, I would have called Oscar a long time ago. He is professional, courteous, inexpensive, and responsive. Now I just need to find an honest mechanic.

We just moved into an old home and when I installed the washing machine it would not drain properly. I tried everything I could think of to no avail I have an 11 month old at home so any delays in laundry can become a problem quickly. My neighbor recommended My Handy Guy and I wish I had called him sooner! Oscar is very nice professional clean and respectful, when he finished with the drain so quickly my wife asked if he could look at a loose faucet in the guest tub. 5 minutes later he had replaced the part with one he carried in his truck and we were all fixed and ready to go.
Being new to a city we didn’t know who to call but now Oscar is our guy. you will not be disappointed!

I had a minor leak issue with my water tank that a previous plumber caused from not knowing wtf he was doing… Luckily my boo knew who to call.
Oscar was nice enough to come all the way down from Oceanside, during a rare stormy day in San Diego. He came and got straight to business; knowing right away exactly what to do and was even prepared with replacement parts. He even showed me the issue with the pipe and the hard-​water build up. He didn’t push any other «needed» repairs… I was the one who asked him what the cost would be to replace the water heater and he was able to get me a great quote and offered to come back to do the work. He is great to work with, and highly recommended for any of your handy man needs. I will likely be calling him in the future for some small home remodeling, as he said he also installs floor tile. His prices are incredibly reasonable, for the quality of the service he provides. If you need any plumbing or other handy man jobs around your home, he’s the guy to call!!!
