The floor is alone are stunning. The installation was clean, precise and level, not a creek not a gap not a single corner out. He clearly knows what he's doing and does not rush the process. Painting was equally impressive. The lines are chris, the coverage is smooth and even and was meticulous about prep work which as any homeowner knows, is what separates a beautiful paint job from one that peels and fades. My walls of professionally done because they were. The wall reconstruction work was where they really distinguished themselves. The kind of work requires both technical skill and a good eye, and Near Me Handyman has both.

On top of the quality of his work, they was on time, respectful of my home, cleaned up after and communicated clearly throughout the entire project. The unexpected little things that always come up in home projects were handled without complaint and without nickel and diming me. My first floor looks brand new and now I'm ready to tackle the rest of my home.
