Fred fixed my dishwasher and in-so-doing gave me back some peace of mind. Very grateful for his prompt and friendly service.

Easily the best handyman service in SD. Not only quick and knowledgeable, but also extremely trustworthy. Fred has fixed several small items and a few big ones as well. There may be other options, but not many handymen do as quality job, clean up after themselves AND can be trusted alone in your home or place of business. I've had other handymen who were ex cons, current conmen or just did terrible work, but none of that is the case here. Highly recommend!!! read more

We called him to our shop to fix our broken sink and sink broke the plumbing while going down. He came down super fast, did everything efficiently and left without bothering the work flow of the shop. I have his number on speed dial now. Thanks brother read more

I am so glad I found Fred! He was the fourth handyman I'd contacted. He is reliable and fairly priced. He was able to go through my punch list to get my home ready for sale including plumbing and general handyman. He repaired termite damaged fascia board that the termite company gave the thumbs up to. He returns calls and texts and showed up on time and did what he said he would. I attribute this to Fred being from New England where there is a strong work ethic. Definitely recommend to others! read more

Fred has done everything from small repairs to a much larger remodeling project for us. He brings the same dedication to quality and detail to everything he works on. He's completely professional, but with an obsession for doing things right. A notch above top-notch! read more

I manage 100 apartments in San Diego and have used Fred / Elite Handyman SD for the better part of a year repeatedly, with repeated success. Fred is trustworthy, prompt, and sets good expectations for myself and tenants who occupy my apartments. He typically provides multiple solutions to a problem, and then lets us ask questions, then we decide on the best option to move forward. Fred then completes the job per the request. I have never had to send Fred back to "fix" any sub par work because it is always done right the first time. I have received excellent feedback from my tenants and colleagues in my office. The best part about Elite Handyman SD is that Fred will always reply to an email or call, and will always keep us posted if he is out of town, or unavailable. Setting a good expectation. read more

He returns call and texts, he did a good job with the leak in our sink and most importantly he is nice. I would recommend him.

I had a great experience with Fred- I needed a door frame and adjoining tricky plaster wall fixed. Fred was easy to contact and responded quickly. He was flexible with scheduling and pricing was very fair. The work looks great, and is probably stronger than before in my old house. Would definitely recommend Fred and his skill! read more

Fred was fantastic and is very reliable. He repaired water damage on a fascia board , repositioned some garage shelving, replaced a screen, and attached a hanger for a 100 ft extension cord to the garage wall. All in a little under 3 hours for $195 including materials. Besides doing excellent work at a reasonable cost, he showed up on time and has great communication skills! He is a professional skilled, nice, honest person and I would highly recommend him! read more

Fred is the best handyman in town! His work is super high quality and you can trust him to be professional, efficient, and honest. Our family has worked with Fred for years; he has installed shelving, switched out faucets, installed cabinets, caulked, patched, fixed so many things in our house. Always to the highest level of workmanship. We even named a piece of furniture after him. Don't hesitate to contact him for your handyman needs. I would give him 10 stars if I could. read more

Fred was here for 3 days doing a variety of tasks, and he did great work on all of them. He's efficient and has great communication skills, plus he shows up on time! Highly recommended. read more

We had an ever growing list of handyman odd jobs we needed help with such as broken sprinklers, garage door keys not working, broken front door lock, leaking windows, re caulking of sinks etc etc & rather than bring out separate tradies for each thing we decided to try with a handyman & see how much they could get done. Boy was that the right decision to bring Fred over (owner of the business & person who does the job). Fred was able to fix every single item on our to do list & it was obvious he was knowledgeable in many different areas. I would class him as a "jack of all trades" rather than a handyman. Not only did he sort out our entire list of "to do's" we found he did things professionally yet efficiently (for example rather than replace our entire front door set he took out the broken lock & replaced this only. He discovered that our windows were leaking because someone had caulked over the drainage system for them in the past .. had we hired someone less honest they could have easily told us that we needed to replace the entire window etc). Fred is definitely going to be our go to handyman from here on, he's super friendly & his rates were very reasonable considering the quality of his work. Our neighbors had hired a handyman a few months prior & had disastrous results so we will be passing along Freds business card to them also. Thanks Fred, much appreciated & we look forward to dealing with you again in the future. read more
