Outdoor deck and lightnings

Captain handy did a spectacular job installing our outdoor lights and renewing our deck. We received respective answers for our questions from Alex and he advised us with few suggestions on how better to place the lights close and inside our future new deck because we have no exact understanding how to make it better at the beginning of our discussion. Alex was very genuine and always asked us is the solutions proposed by him ok for us.

We are happy with his team work and would happily recommend him. Thank you, Captain Alex!

Professional company

We meet with several companies, but we were very disappointed in the responses to our questions. Alex listened to our ideas and responded promptly and honestly. He sends us a quote which was slightly higher than the others but I prefer to work with professionals than to lose money. Captain Handy team was very polite, and the owner himself was very diligent in making sure every aspect of the project was done correctly. We renew our driveway, side walkway, and our entire back yard. People are always stopping in front of our home to see the work. I totally recommend this company to anybody. If you don't get them to quote, you are missing out professionals.

Home Cleaning

The first time we using a cleaning service. What can I say? A good cleaning, on-time and thorough. In my opinion probably a little more expensive than other few cleaners with whom I talked but I think worth the price has given the satisfaction guarantee and the reliability. Will order again for sure in a month or so!

Floor Replacement Job

We recently hired Alex and his team in order to remove our old flooring in our basement and main level. They did it in a few days and we're really happy with the results. The work was done on time and at the quoted price. I definitely recommend Alex team for any flooring installation work!
