M & M Handyman Service

Guys please do not go to this guy for service. He was supposed replace my thermostat at my rental property. He called me and told me he got the job done and requested $ 125. I made the payment right away out of respect. An hour later my tenant called me and told me that he did not replace the thermostat, instead he just opened the cap and told them how to manually alter the heat. And called it a «fix». I sent another handyman and he replaced the thermostat with a brand new one AND also fixed the ceiling fan on top of that and still cost me less than that.
All John tried to do was to fool me with an explanation in some technical complicated way thinking I do not know anything about this stuff. Please avoid him. You will regret it if you don’t.
ALSO — he talked to the handyman who replaced the thermostat, and requested I show him the invoice, and still have not refunded the money. He also abused my tenant 7am in the morning to go back in the house and «unfix» in other words break the thermostat and only then he would refund me.
A total ridiculous, disaster experience.

Great work Got here early, on a Saturday. Efficient, quick, automatically understood the job, got it done no questions asked, done in 2 and a half hours when i was ready for four. Definitely recommend. Great price.

I really like John. He’s very knowledgable and was even proactive with some of the things that needed fixing (example: he was to fix a small part of our toliet and he just replaced the valve). Things I’ve been meaning to fix for eight years, John fixed in 5 minutes, and had materials in his truck to fix things I didn’t anticipate.
Also, he was really, reasonably priced. Was committed to getting the jobs done right but quickly (he rushed around my house from job to job). However, I read the reviews in depth after he was to come back to my house to repair some things outside. I had already paid him for this work as I wasn’t going to be home at the time he was to make the repairs. He didn’t come the day he said and didn’t call, but I called and he picked up and said he was trying to come over soon. He said he would come on Thursday, ended up coming Saturday morning, which wasn’t a big deal to me because I didn’t need to be home when he came over. He did the work perfectly, quickly, cheaply. I can’t give him 5 stars but I would call him again despite not coming when he said he would and calling.

If I could give 0 reviews I would, he embezzled $ 85 from us, promising us a gutter repair the next week (ONE NAIL TO BE SCREWED IN) to be completed THREE weeks ago. He’s been dodging our calls & ever since and it’s been TORRENTIAL pouring, with my boyfriend making a makeshift gutter holder in the meantime… Should have looked him up on Unilocal before calling. Now considering going to small claims court out of the mere principle of being swindled and lied to. Honestly wish we had called the police when he was semi-​bullying us for money… DO NOT USE!!!

I wish I read the reviews before making an appointment. Don’t waste your time with this business, they didn’t even show up.
I called on a Friday, was able to get a Monday appointment. I don’t live at the property so I had made a special trip. After waiting 20 minutes, with no phone calls to tell me they were running late or couldn’t make it, I called the main number and was told that they would call me back once they figured out which technician was assigned to me. I never received a phone call back, and nobody ever showed up. I continued to call the main number to at least reschedule, I understand things come up — but they stopped answering their phone. Very strange, and not to mention, rude.
If they didn’t want my business, or weren’t available to help, why make the appointment?! Such a waste of time.

I called to set up an estimate, set up an appointment time (that same day), and the appointment time came and went with nobody showing up and nobody calling to say they were late, etc. I called and texted multiple times and got no response. Completely unacceptable.

Excellent customer service. He arrived at my house 30 mins early. He was very professional — quick n very thorough. Even did extra work that wasn’t discussed early on. I would highly recommend M&M. I will be calling him back to do some ply work. Thanks M&M for the awesome service. If you want a seasoned handy man M&M is the way to go.

They didn’t show. I called when they were 30 minutes late and told that someone should be there soon. Called again at an hour and got an answering machine. We’re at an hour and fifteen past my appointment and I have to leave.
It’s unclear to me how they plan to generate income but it appears they have a laissez faire attitude when it comes to customer service (or even providing handyman services in exchange for currency).
It’s my fault for ignoring the other reviews that said they didn’t show up. Hopefully you don’t make the same mistake.

Such great customer service! M&M Handyman Service was able to walk me through repairing my appliance over the phone, saving me the cost of a new appliance and installation. I didn’t know what I was doing, and he was so patient, helpful, and friendly. I’m so happy that I called M&M; I will definitely use him for all my future handyman needs!

Why didn’t I check Unilocal first??? Same experience as so many others. It was easy to get an appointment to have my garbage disposal replaced. The gentlemen even had me text him a picture of the current unit so he could pick one up on his way. I’m posting this review 2.5 hours after our appointment time — no show, no call. I called the company, but am unable to reach anyone. Cross this one off your list so you don’t waste your time!

Mr. Brinkley just did some work on our house today. He did a good job patching up the ceiling, cleaning the gutters and installing a hook for the garden hose. We would use his services again.

I am really surprised to hear that other people have had problems with this company! I have called John several times and he always shows up on time and has reasonable prices compared to other handymen I have tried for similar fixes. In fact, I decided to write this review because he just talked me through fixing my closet door on the phone because he could tell it wasn’t a big problem, rather than coming over and charging me. Anyway, if you use this company ask for him!

I didn’t think it would actually come to this, but it did. I had used M&M several times and so didn’t pay much attention to the other reviews complaining that he doesn’t show up. But recently we needed a handyman to fix a couple things around the house, and although we scheduled an appointment with him he did not show up. We called him a couple of times and left a text message, but he never got back to us. Very unprofessional and a great disappointment.

AMAZING SERVICE! I have used his services twice now. Once to mount two TVs– he gave me a great price and was fast. The second time my garbage disposal was not working (I had some glass stuck in it) so I called to set up an appointment and he was nice enough to walk me through fixing the drain over the phone and at no cost. Definitely use his services!

I wish I could give this person ZERO STARS. He scheduled an appointment with me and then just didn’t show up! No call, no e mail nothing! I finally got in touch with him and re-​scheduled the appointment for the next day. Again — he just DIDN’T SHOW UP! I wrote and called to find out what was going on but he just never replied! I went with a different service. ZERO STAR SERVICE — USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AS THEY JUST DON’T KEEP APPOINTMENTS.

Showed up one hour late for the initial appointment, and that was only after I called to remind him of the estimate walk-​through. He was nice enough and said he’d let me know the estimate by the next day. I never heard back from him.

Same experience as Robert and Vijay. The guy gave me an in-​person estimate for minor home repairs, but never showed on the agreed-​upon date or returned my followup call. Save your time and find someone reliable.

Mr. Brinkley did two jobs for me at one property that were great. On budget, fast, he showed up on time, etc. Then I had him look at a third job and gave him a key to the property. He disappeared… no call, his voice mail is full, no response to email. So I don’t know what to think. He was great, but now I couldn’t recommend him. I ended up changing the locks because I was weirded out by the whole thing.

I tried to use M&M Handyman Services, but unfortunately they missed two appointments to come to my home to see what projects I needed help with. After they were a half hour late the first day, I asked them to reschedule for the next day, which they did. I was promised that they would be on time, but when they were 15 minutes late for the second appointment, I called to ask when I could expect them and was told it would be another 30 minutes. I told them I would be finding a service that is better at keeping appointments.

I was very disappointed with this contractor which basically did not proceed past the appointment setting stage. I called them and asked for them to come out and inspect some work I needed done at my property. I set an appointment for 6 pm on a Friday. At 7 pm, they still had not showed up, so I attempted to call and left a message. They were a no call no show. The followiing day, I tried to call to see what had happened to our appointment, and they picked up the phone and hung it up on me. Geeze! If they didn’t want the work, why couldn’t they just tell me so. My recommendation… stay away from this one!
