Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with Chicagoland handyman. I was looking for a…read morehandyman to complete a few projects in my home. The repairman that I initially spoke with over the phone was super responsive and very polite. I was so impressed by the Yelp reviews and by the phone call that I immediately scheduled an appointment with him. After I finished setting up the service appointment we discussed the time, location, and other details. I immediately placed an order from my local hardware store and to have all the items (appliances) shipped to my home. The day before the scheduled appointment the repairman messaged me that he made a mistake and that he was supposed to schedule my appointment for the following day. He also mentioned that I did not send him a deposit to lock in my appointment as if I lost the appointment due to not paying him a deposit. I was confused! We never discussed a deposit or a deposit amount when I spoke with the handyman over the phone. I did not see the other Yelpers reference in their post anything about Zelle quick paying their repairman for a deposit. I thought something was odd I immediately thanked him for his time and told him I would not need his company to complete the repairs!

The initial price included up to 2 hours of which he worked about 1-1hr15 minutes. He charged an extra hour to apply a 3rd coat. He also forgot to do touch up painting initially which he said he'd do but did a mediocre job after he came back so I will need to repaint anyways. Communication was okay. He does ask for a deposit.

I have worked with numerous contractors over the years for my buildings and Tom was the best by far…read morefor the following reasons, 1. Started and stayed on the job until completion. Showed up every day early. 2. Communicated very well. When he was not going to make it (only 1 time) he let us know and told us when he would be back. 3. Stayed on schedule and completed the project on time. 4. Did quality work, very professional. Kept the workplace clean and respectful of our property. 5. Fair pricing, clear and understandable proposal. 6. To summarize, he completed what he committed to on time, very professional and I have already recommended him to others.

Tomas at Mysinsky Construction is one of the best or if not the best trades persons I have ever…read moreworked with. His ceramic tile job in my bathroom is a work of art. His attention to detail was above and beyond my expectations. If you want a tub to shower conversion done look no farther than Mysinsky Construction. His pricing is fair and he's easy to work with. He gave me great ideas on the design of my shower with his vast experience with bathroom remodels. I couldn't be more pleased with the job he did. If you would like to see the completed project I am open to show it to you if you would like.

I Always paid him on time and never gave him a reason to get upset. Since then, he has been harassing my tenants and me, threatening to call the city inspector to come to my buildings, sending my tenants ideas how they can sue me trying to force a Tennent to go on a date with him for smoke and drink in a very aggressive way, and many more... He seems to be very desperate for work and claimed that no one wants to hire him and kept asking me for more work, and when I said, I'm not willing to work with him, he get upset and start threatening again. I would stay away from this guy and will never let him in my house or any of my properties. I also filed a police report against him and restriction order together with a few of my tenants that has been harassed I attached a few screenshots to show the type of service you will be dealing with working with this company. Update to the owner comment: I added a screenshot on this page, showing the phone number, matching the phone number. I was texting with plus I found you on the Yelp through this page

Originally I called them to install my powder room vanity. Then I asked if they can do wainscoting,…read moreand they said they do! The price was reasonable and they showed up on time. I was so happy with the work! I will be contacting them in the future for more jobs. They didn't do the painting so don't judge the paint lol but they did the toilet, vanity and the wainscoting! Loved it!

After a few rounds of roommates, and just regular wear and tear around the Condominium, I had a…read morelist of repairs that needed to be done. Namely, my heavy iron screen door to the balcony kept slamming shut, the guest bedroom door was cracked and could no longer be closed properly or locked, and the kitchen faucet was driving me crazy with this constant drip....drip...drip. Plus, I wanted John's ideas on new kitchen lighting and paint colors, which will be the next project. John came by on a Monday to measure the doors and assess the damages. I think he went shopping on Tuesday at Home Depot, and by Wednesday afternoon, my entire list of broken stuff was repaired beyond my expectations, once again, while I was at Nordstrom's enjoying my day. I am so happy with his work, especially with the beautiful new kitchen faucet, the iron door closes without slamming, and the privacy of a locking door for the guest bedroom once again. Plus it was HUNDREDS of dollars less than other handy people have given me estimates for. Fair, honest, fast, reliable. I'd give 10 stars.

I received a few responses to my Yelp service request. Tomaso responded promptly, provided the best…read moreestimate, and was very flexible in scheduling an appointment. He actually arrived before the scheduled time, and sent me a text letting me know of his arrival! COVID compliant, he had his mask. He knew exactly what to do to change out the faucet, and completed the job quickly and efficiently. No leaks or problems, and it looks great! I would not hesitate to call TLCC again!

I also couldn't figure out how my toggle bolts were getting stuck/not tightening which left me stuck halfway through the project on my own. My call was returned same day and I was able to quickly set an appointment. Sergio called me 15 minutes before my set time and made me feel like one of my buddies just happened to be in the neighborhood. We quickly figured out that my bolts were too long and were bending as I pushed them against the foundation. With an expert on-site and having the extra set of hands we had the new unit installed in under 30 mins. Friendly and prompt service from a professional contractor.

I was looking for a handyman in the Evanston area to improve a few things in my condo that I had…read morebeen putting off for a few years. So I found AGH on Yelp and put in the request on their website. I received a quick response and George came out to take a look at everything we wanted to do and provided an estimate later in the week. Once I had a chance to review all my estimates I contacted AGH and gave them the green light. They were able to start work on my projects within a week. Here are the projects I had them work on: -Custom built cabinet/pantry in my kitchen -Custom backsplash above my kitchen counter/sink -Remove/install new cabinet by my stove -Recaulk bathroom window in my shower From start to finish it took them about a week. Pretty reasonable given the amount of work I had done. They also stayed within the original budget that was quoted. They were also very clean and the workers that were in and out of my condo were very polite. I will definitely call them again for my next projects. Only reason I don't give 5 stars is because the communication could have been better coordinated. It seems they have different contacts for all aspects: estimates, payments, and actual work. This is my only knock on AGH, but overall I am very happy with all the work performed in my condo!

Back in May/June 2025, I hired Handy Gentlemen for interior work on my house. It is now…read moremid-September. David, the owner, seems like a nice guy, and he did a good job replacing the tiles on my bathroom floor, and he (mostly his assistant) did a lot of painting, which on the whole looks good. But see below... The big issues were what I discovered after he was finished and had left: fresh paint stains in multiple areas, including the wood floor of my 19th century house and even furniture - which I cleaned up. Splattered paint near the ceiling of my kitchen which still, three months later, has not been patched, paint stains on my oriental rug, a major purchase 40 years ago, etc. David said he would pay for the rug damage, and I only asked for 50% of the very reasonable $175 cleaning cost. David told me to bill him via Zelle, something I said I'm not sure how to do. He already has my Zelle information, since that's how I paid him for the work. But after messaging him and emailing several times, he has not responded. And I still have paint streaks on the wall and an unpaid bill. So I can't recommend Handy Gentlemen. I think part of the problem is that David is under-manned and a bit overwhelmed, but not responding to my messages is unprofessional.

Originally I had planned to go through Home Depot for purchasing & installation but was having a bad experience and decided to cancel the HD installers and hire locally and I am so glad I did! David took the time and care to prepare my subfloors with new plywood and secure it to reduce a lot of those squeaks. He advised on what would look nice for new baseboards and the final floors look beautiful, a major improvement over the old carpet! Will likely hire David the Handy Gentleman for future projects.
