Worked with David on several home projects across a wide range of repairs and never found him lacking in how to get the job done. Beyond that, David is also a great resource in advising on other issues around the house that could use attention. Prompt, versatile, and fair. Highly recommend working with David on any project you have on your todo list.

Electrical and Wiring Repair

On a day when I needed someone to work on a moments notice, David was available. I'm not confident changing light fixtures, so a handyman was a good choice. He was on time, friendly, and very helpful with other small items that same night. I would consider him again.

Dave did a great job hanging curtain rods for our sliding doors and living room window. He also told me how to fix up the holes from the wall mounts he removed. Thanks!

David is a true pro. He worked on my washer and although the issue was not fixable, he took the time to try out various options first. He also stayed in touch with me after the job, offering helpful suggestions. A very professional, kind and diligent expert. I highly recommend him.

Plumbing Pipe Repair

Problem didn't get resolved. Intentional multiple visit to generate higher fee. Overall bad experience.
David's Contracting, LLC. -Insured-'s reply
Yes, 3 trips for parts is unusual, but sink unit was from England and a first for me.... Clearance in rear for removal was 4 inches, very tight. Grunted a lot. Client went to get new Sink system $1300 only to return and hear wife found it on Amazon for much less. Naturally a frustrating day. Sink final installed later, tho; and was called 2 weeks after to tighten a fitting for a small leak, which is done free per my policy; all errors are free. What started out as a faucet spray drip leak expanded much more than anyone could know. I did my best and had a sore back the next day after 3 hours under a sink! English sink systems are different, mate!

Plumbing Pipe Repair

Dave fixed the leaking pipe in the basement and replaced the Korkey fixture in the toilet. Our water bill was astronomical because of the constantly running toilet, but thankfully Dave was able to fix it. He went above and beyond to help us with additional possible improvements to our home. I will definitely contact him when we are ready to do further work.

Sandy and her Dad are great folks and I am glad to be of help...after years of sitting in corporations, Handymanning these nice people are a gift.

Plumbing Pipe Installation or Replacement

David came over and realized we were stuck: I was trying to fit a European bidet into an American pipe system. He suggested purchasing a step-down connector, which I did, and talked me through fixing it myself, which I also did. Thanks to his helpful suggestions, I finally have a working bidet! He knew his way around the pipes, and knew what he was talking about in regards to what to do with them. Would hire again.

Ed is right; The Law hath Spoken. Back pain ....Ouch.... from installing a Gargbage Disposal 2 hrs earlier cause me to almost drop Ed's Ceiling Light, but he was there to watch and caught it. Phone battery failed an hour earlier so I was a little late. It was nice to chat with him and his friend, and I will place handy man jokes on the profile soon! Thank you, Ed.

Dave had replaced my kitchen faucet. He was friendly and personable. Dave did not complete my job, because my new hoses where not long enough to reach the water valves, so I had to go to Home Depot to purchase extensions. I was disappointed in the lack of tools Dave brought with him to the job, as he requested to use random household items (paper clip, fork, my own tools) to help him with the job.
David's Contracting, LLC. -Insured-'s reply
dianna lives in the city far from parking. I walked 8 blocks. I left all my heavy tool box in the car having, installed many sinks. So glad she had a fork to take the tiny c clip out of the faucet system hose she bought. ..and a paper clip too! She was very helpful!

Plumbing Drain Repair

Dave helped us with some plumbing issues with our toilet and he was great. He was super responsive and kept us updated throughout the day on his expected arrival time. He made the timing work for us with our work schedule and was super quick. He gave us some very helpful instructions to follow up with and overall made a very unpleasant issue as pleasant as it could be. Would not hesitate to hire again!

To Anyone & Everyone Considering Engaging the Services of Dave H: Some folks tell me I am a seriously tough reviewer, and they are correct. Given this, in the case of Dave H, it is a rare pleasure for me to, without the slightest reservation, recommend Dave for handyman services. I have engaged him on several occasions for a variety of tasks (e.g., installation, assembly, repairs, and more), and without exception, he responded rapidly and courteously to my inquiry, arrived promptly at the scheduled time, completed the tasks at hand in a meticulous and thorough manner, cleaned up after his work, and honored his initial quote. These are the actions of a professional, and I consider myself lucky to have found him. -Scott Bennett Author, The Elements of Resume Style
