Dwight and Patrick were conscientious, quick, and efficient in helping remove a old cabinet from a tricky position. Great professionalism.

I highly recommend their work.

These guys are great! Personable and communicative. No double talk or cryptic lingo. If you have input, they take the time to listen. The quality of the work has been great. They are even compensating for some of the un-plum work I inherited from the previous owners. I will certainly have them back soon.

Courtesy, timeliness, a job well done for a fair price-that's what I want when I need help. Those four items are not always easy to come by, but Diablo Valley Handyman Svcs provided all that when they sent Dwight and Patrick to replace my automatic sprinkler system timer. They came out to assess the problem, gave me an estimate, went to pick up the parts needed and installed a new timer --not a wasted moment! Perfect and I'll have green grass in no time. Very nice personable guys. This company has a permanent spot in my phone directory. Try them. You won't be sorry.

Scheduled appointment to have various things done around the house. Arturo took care of everything that could be done in an efficient and quick manner. Very nice guy and took time to explain what parts I needed to complete the rest of what I needed done. Would definitely hire again. Price was reasonable too.

Hired Diablo Valley Handyman for a few projects around the house, they were very responsive to our requests, provided a quote very quickly, were reasonably priced. I worked with Billy who did great work, was professional and very easy to work with. Highly recommended.

Update: today I worked with Jose for some additional projects and he did a phenomenal job, went above and beyond our expectations and can't recommend highly enough.

Was recently very pleased with their work. We had Patrick come in and did a number of jobs for us and did a great job. They were very fast and efficient. I will definitely be using them again in the future.
Thank you for all your hard work!

James sent Larry to install my security door. Larry got the job done in a fast and timely manner. I will definitely use DVHS again.

Just had Dwight come in and do some electrical work in my crawlspace. All i can say is EXCELLENT WORK!! From the initial quote with James to final installation with Dwight everything was punctual and professional! They showed up on time every time, a first for me with any contractor, workmen, or handyman. Really impressed by their professionalism and more importantly their work. Thanks James and Dwight I will not hesitate to call on you guys again and would refer you to anyone that requires your skill set. Highly recommend!!

When you have a couple or larger home repair projects, you may find yourself in a Catch-22. The jobs may above your skill level, yet too small for your Contractor. This was my dilemma last month when I finally threw in my Sheetrock knife after my bathroom ceiling fix was just not quite right. At about the same time, Comcast concluded our wi fi issues had to do with a corrupted cable running from a splitter inside a wall. And the topper, my long deferred fix of a drafty front door was no closer to fixed. I did a lot of research, crowdsourcing referrals around town, and Diablo Valley Handyman kept popping up. I gave them the cable pull job, with the other projects as possibles. Well slap me sideways and call me Sammy, these guys came to play. Within a day I had an estimate, and they put me on their schedule 2 weeks out. Kind of a good thing, because it indicated they are busy. Dwight and Patrick showed up right on time. They confirmed the bid for the cable job and went to work. Since they made a great first impression, I had them bid on the other two jobs. Slam bam thank you ma'am. They went back to work and got it all done. Efficient, respectful, knowledgeable and on budget. Sure couldn't find a single criticism of their work. I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of this, but save a day and have them do multiple projects. That was a real money saver. Great job guys! If you consider them, and would like a reference, I'm game.

Absolutely wonderful. I would recommend Diablo Valley Handyman to anyone for any size project. I had a project that was very detail oriented and required a bit of problem solving and the guys handled it brilliantly. The main guys at the house daily were Dwight and Patrick and they were pleasant, efficient, and ready to work everyday (love those guys) Owner, James is honest and super easy to work with. I can't wait to post photos of my finalized projects. These guys are so awesome that I recommend my real estate clients to them regularly.
