I hired Israel for my bathroom remodel. He was extremely professional, very kind, patient and got the job done quickly and efficiently. Always arrived on time and his work was done to a very high standard. And my bathroom looks absolutely amazing! I would not hesitate to recommend him to come back! read more

See all

Israel showed up right on time to install an outside blowing kitchen vent and his work was completed quickly and cleanly! I would definitely recommend and hope to use him for future projects. read more

Israel himself does good work, but the people he hires have caused us nothing but headaches and wasted money. We had been happy with the work done up until recently. One kid was installing insulation in our basement and ripped out the step-down transformer wire for our heat, so we didn't have heat for 2 days. We had to pay $200 OOP for a service contract with an oil company to get it repaired. While he did credit our bill for the problems incurred, he raised his rate to $100/hr without informing us, so the invoice was still a shock. The dope he hired to install our front door took 6 HOURS and he did a horrible job. He couldn't figure out the doorknob, and our brand new front door is now a royal pain in the *** to close, you have to really shove to get it to shut. We voiced our complaints, and his response was that 'we weren't closing the door properly'.... WHAT? In addition, they knocked our exterior lighting wiring loose and it hasn't worked right ever since. We also had a new toilet installed that wasn't adhered to the floor correctly, so every time you sit on it, it tilts forward and then slams back down. And lastly, the guy who custom cut our exterior basement door never sealed it, so it's splitting and peeling at the bottom and sides, which is letting a lot of mositure into our basement when it rains. We spent $200 to have a new door look like it's 100 years old, NOT happy. Israel always tried to make things right, but when we voiced all of our complaints and concerns about everything from the work done last fall, his excuses put us off. He did help us out in a pinch on several occasions, but I cannot recommend him because I don't trust the people he hires, and he was too often willing to overlook poor quality work despite his high rates. read more

I saw all the rave reviews and really expected the same kind of service. Sadly, I didn't get it. He came by and gave me an estimate and promised to do the work within the next few days. Texts and phone messages back and forth, delays, excuses, BS, etc. to the point of not getting any more replies. About a month later I get a call from a lady who representing this company who wants to set up a time for an estimate. I'm thinking, HUH? The caller was clueless about everything that didn't occur to date and offered to check with the owner about setting up a time to do the work and would call me back with a time. Never heard from them again. read more

Israel and his crew moved 2 extremely heavy adjustable beds from the garage to the upper bedroom. Easy to setup the appointment, job well done, decent price. Recommended. read more

I had a couple of projects that needed attention around the house....Not knowing who to call I turned to Yelp and Google and searched for a local handyman. I discovered that Isreal the Handyman had great feedback and the bonus was that he was very local to me (same town) . I called him on Saturday morning, he showed up the same day to give me an estimate. His prices were fair so on a handshake I agreed to have him start at his earliest convenience. He came by Monday and completed first project. Once the parts came in for the second project Isreal was here the following day (Friday) and completed the second project. I was very happy that Isreal was able to complete both projects in 6 days... Isreal's work ethic is second to none, he's quality consciousness wont leave you with a mess. He's respectful and genuinely a nice guy. I'm sure I'll be calling him in the future for other projects... Thanks Israel !!! read more

The holidays have been challenging for me and my girlfriend because we've been dealing with a mouse(mice) problem. An exterminator laid a few traps with little success- the rodents were getting in somewhere. So Christmas Day was spent patching up holes beneath the sink and behind the radiators. We thought we solved the problem but New Years Day one ran across the kitchen floor. At this point my gf and I are frustrated, disgusted, and fed up. So we looked to yelp for help and found Israel. He answered right away, and showed up an hour or two - ON NEW YEARS DAY! He took time to search the the whole condo top to bottom looking for any entry spots. He gathered they may be com from the wall where there's a slight gap between the floor and baseboard. He used caulk and meticulous closed the gap. VERY NEAT, VERY PROFESSIONAL. Good communication, honest, and very professional. Will def be calling Israel for a future Reno/update. read more

I needed someone to re-grout parts of my shower and install a door for me. I found Israel on Yelp, and he contacted me back quickly and came out to give me an estimate the next day. He worked with my schedule to find a day when he could do the work and was very timely, professional and reasonably priced. I will absolutely continue to use him! read more

We love Israel. He's done a ton of work for us in and around the house and I've never met a more honest and trustworthy contractor or handyman. We've shopped around a lot and he's always proven to be very reasonable as far as pricing. He has done quality work with jobs both small and large - an example of the latter being a basement room he finished beautifully for us, which included electrical and HVAC work. He is respectful of our home (always mindful of removing shoes and always cleans up after his team, etc etc) which in my mind is a huge plus. Whenever we've had any issues with projects he's done (even if he had nothing to do with causing the issue), he's always been happy to stop by and give it a fix at no charge... again, I feel like that type of professionalism and courtesy is what will keep us having Israel on speed dial for years and years to come... until he retires! There is always work to be done :) Honestly, I cannot say enough great things about this guy. read more
