Company Overview

We strive to delight our customers by transforming their ideas into reality, step by step.
This company was born out of my experience with a moving service.
I took on tasks like hanging pictures, installing TVs, and putting together beds.
I dedicated my evenings to helping customers until I parted ways with the moving company.
The few clients I had propelled my business into high gear, and I was operational within the week.
Now, two years and three part-time staff members later, I continue to grow, grateful to the clients who have contacted me and trusted me with their projects.
I have spent 35 years in construction, both in hands-on roles and as a foreman and superintendent for Starbucks Coffee.
This experience qualifies me as someone who has encountered nearly every facet of the construction industry, and I genuinely enjoy my work.

Jon is the best handyman I've ever had! He power washed and stained our fence, attached a bracket on our dishwasher, applied wallpaper to our dining room, and re-hung several curtain rods to the correct height. He did an amazing job on all. Plus, he does it with a smile on his face. Highly recommended!

Jonathan has always been a life saver... every emergency .. no matter what.. he has been right there. He shows up with a great attitude and work ethic. He is knowledgeable and very reasonable on his prices. I would highly recommend him for this area especially since he now lives here in Desert hot Springs, I will definitely call him again for my future projects.

Johnathan did a great job fixing my front door that had warped and lock that needed servicing. Quick in and out, showed up on time and cleaned up after himself. he came highly recommended. He is a great handyman and can probably do whatever you need and the last few years he has put up outdoor lights as well as helped hang curtain rods in problematic areas.

Jon did a great job moving and cleaning an existing window AC unit and installing a new unit. He was neat, personal and efficient. I will definitely use him for all my future needs.

I called Jon after seeing his stellar reviews here on Yelp, noticing he was nearby in Highland Park, and having another handyman flake out on me. He returned my call the same day and was able to come take care of a couple projects the very next day. In a world of flaky contractors, his great communication skills and follow-through really stand out and set him apart.

He took care of a couple minor things in a reasonable amount of time and for a reasonable price. He's now our first call for any other home improvement projects that drop up. My husband and I are so pleased we found him!

★★★★★

Jon has a varied skill set and is able to do many different projects. He is the type of decent human that will even fix something else that he noticed as he is doing the job for which he was hired.
He is easy to get along with and does the work efficiently.
I am on a fixed income and Jon has been kind enough to put together solutions with material on hand to save me money. He really is a resourceful thinking man!
He really is multi talented and you won't be disappointed.

I own multiple properties and finding someone reliable with a wide range of skill can be a challenge when addressing the needs of your tenants. Jonathan is versatile, honest, efficient and professional. He has helped range of plumbing issues, carpentry and electrical repairs. He has become my first call when I need to get something repaired at one of my properties or for any issue at my own home. I highly recommend him.

★★★★★

We have used Jon for a number of projects around our house, indoors and outdoors. He always does a great job and his prices are reasonable. When he brings Gary with him for two-person jobs, he brings another hard-working, friendly guy. Highly recommend them.

I called a couple of times but nobody picked up nor answered back though the voicemail said that he would before the end of the day.... 10 days later out of the blue the Thinking Man remembered my call and did call me. He apologized for the belated answer and I apologized for having hired somebody more professional and communicative.

Jonathan and Gary came out did two days of work on an old house I purchased that needed a lot of work. Pricing was honest and fair. Work was done exactly as promised and expected despite many setbacks due to the age of home. Icing on the cake, the house was left cleaner than it originally was after the work. Cant beat that.
