Al's Handyman

Randa M.

Thank you so much Al! Excellent work, quick response and very professional. I Highly recommended his services and will be using his service in the future.
Al did a really great job on building a patio wooden deck along with the benches. He will be our new guy for upcoming home projects! His fast, efficient, and great communicator. He finished the job on time and this is rare to happen with contractors with handyman. He was fast and efficient, and he makes sure that the client is happy and satisfied with the job. He knew exactly what to do, I will Definitely use his service again if I need another job done! Great experience from beginning to end.
Don't hesitate to contact him!

If you need a handyman call Al! He was quick to response to my questions and came out for an estimate right away. He was fair with his pricing and gave me a good deal for the work I needed done! He arrived on time and was so nice. I highly recommend Al!

This man is very smart and attentive. I messaged him and he replied so fast. Loved the way he worked. He did all my 5 closets for my new place, and a couple of other things. I don't know much about tools but he was so nice enough to go himself to get the extra parts which I definitely loved. He's also super fast and finished it all in one day. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Al is a delightful man. Sincerely, he is a sweetheart and is ready to go above and beyond (like picking up extra materials for the job). If you'd like to make a friend, Al is your man... if you want *quality* work done in your home I would think twice about using Al's service. I was not going to write a review, however I owe it to everyone to be honest about our experience so you all can make an informed decision.

We hired Al for a pretty extensive job, remodling our newly bought home. At first we walked away from his offer because of the many bad reviews we read. He then offered a very affordable price range. We accepted.

He has since finished the job and here are the top 12 issues we have with the job (many more problems not stated).

1. Many nails were left in the floor after he put te vinyl down. The floors and floorboards were put down (poor quality), but what uspset me and mh roomate is that she got a nail stuck in her foot because Al's team was so negligent.

2. The closet racks have begun to fall down as we put clothes on them. He took down the racks to paint, but did not reinforce them. This is VERY dangerous.

3. The electical work was very bad. We have lights that dont work properly.

4. Al's team did not install what they said they would. We still had our bathroom sink and lights not installed. The kitchen formica was not installed. So much was left undone.

5. The paint job was HORRIBLE. Oh my goodness. I was shocked at the paint that was everywhere (on our sliding glass door, on our new floors, on counters)... everywhere! They even painted over our new switches. Not only that, but the actual paint job was mindblowing. His team does not have the ability to paint in a straight line. Every time we asked for touch up, it became worse.

6. Sawdust was everywhere because they cut the floorboards in the rooms. Its been over a week and we are still breathing the sawdust. My roomate wakes up every morning witth a swollen face from allergies from sawdust (after sweeping 4x a day, mopping 2x a day, its still there).

7. We were shocked at how dirty the house was. Not just the sawdust, which they attempted to wipe down... but the team used our restrooms and we would find pee on the seats and their personal materials in our house.

8. They broke our blinds.

9. Uneven baseboards. I am in shock. Just look at the pictures.

10. Lack of caulking. We have uneven steps and really shoddy work all around. Caulking could have helped him cover the weaknesses, but he only partially did that when we complained.

11. He promised 2 weeks, he took almost double the time. Every day after 2 weeks he said he would be finished.


To his credit, when we mentioned that my roommate was bleeding and then again when the shelves fell, he did offer to come fix things and was very apologetic. The quality of work was so poor that we do not want him to come back.

Again, Al is the sweetest man you will meet, but the work is not quality. If you are needing something done at the most economical level and you dont mind poor quality, he may be for you. Also, if you have small projects, he may be for you.

I truly believe in investing in small businesses. He is a sweet man and won us over, but the quality is not good.

Ali came same day to give me a quote and the price was very reasonable and his guy did a good job. He was very kind and helpful. He finished the job even before I needed it to be done. I highly recommend this handyman!

Al responded quickly and gave us a quote within a few days. They speedy reply helped us to make the decision to us him and his team. We had a list of about a dozen things in our home to do such as hanging ceiling fans, curtains, gutter lights, electrical socket replacement and painting our patio. He accomplished everything in two afternoons. It feels good to have our home complete.

Loved that the handymen all arrived in masks. Kept their distance, too. Great work restoring rusting doors and decaying concrete bench. Better than expected. Would hire again

I wish I could give 0 starts. Al is just a polite scam artist. He will send some random guys that have no experience and does a sloppy job. But they are all very nice. Then halfway through the job once you've paid a certain amount they stop coming and start with the excuses- they're sick, inbetween jobs, ect....At some point the job I contracted them for was so far past the date they said they'd finish that I told Al just refund me back what I paid for already that they can't finish and I would get someone else to finish the job. Al agreed to refund me the money owed for the unfinished job, then I never heard from him again. If you still choose to use his services my advise is don't pay until the job is completely done.

Knew what he was doing with carpentry, stucco, and painting. Demo'd a rotting wooden facade wall for me, rebuilt it from scratch, and stucco-ed it. His stucco work almost completely matches the rest of the house; after a bit of weathering you wouldn't know it's new!

AI responded to my call right away and came the same afternoon to fix an electrical problem. Fantastic service! Thank you!!
