He charges $275 an hour. And 30 minutes of such was picking up new toliet at Home Depot, which was one mile down the street. Joe replaced a toilet. Took him 30 minutes to remove old toilet and replace with new one. He still has not sent me a copy of the receipt for new toliet and I asked him twice. See pics below of text. read more

How this guy got four stars is seriously beyond me. I own a vacation rental management company so everything is time sensitive. I called Joe and he told me that he could help me out the next morning between 7:30-8am. The next morning I didn't hear from him. I text him multiple times and called him three times. Never once did I ever hear back from him. Read through all the reviews before you call this guy. People call him "No show Joe". Stay away!!!!! read more

Joe the Handyman - Handyman Near Me - Oceanside, California

I used Joe to install a floor in a small bathroom. He did a great job in a timely manner. I have referred him to clients since and I am scheduling more work around my house. I'm very happy that I found him. read more

He took all safety measures and worked hard under harsh conditions to do an excellent job, thanks Joe I'll be using you again!

I called eight other businesses and they wouldn't be able to help for days or wanted me to leave a voicemail and would get back to me someday. I left multiple voice mails, only received one callback and they said they couldn't help. Long story short, on my ninth call, Joe answered immediately. He was able to help me the same day. I needed help for mom at her house and it was a bit of an emergency. Perhaps I was lucky, getting some of my karama back, or the stars were aligned, but regardless, I was very thankful for his help. He solved the issue quickly and didn't overcharge for the service. Joe is out there roaming the streets, helping little old ladies. A regular modern superhero. Good job Joe. read more

I read other great reviews about Joe when I looked for a handyman. I was not disappointed. He called me back right away, came over and gave me an estimate right away, we discussed our game plan, and I found him to be very knowledgeable. Unlike others, he showed up with measuring tape and appeared to be a serious working man. Not only was I not disappointed in the finished product, I was absolutely delighted. The work was correct, and good-looking when it was all done. I know good work when I see it. My husband was a licensed architect in the state of California. He would recommend Joe. I intend to ask his help for all my handyman needs. read more

Joe the Handyman - Lattice installed by handyman Joe. - Handyman Near Me - Oceanside, California

Our entire closet shelf failed and with the weight of our stuff caused the supports to punch holes in the drywall, one going all the way into the next room. Being in the middle of other renovation in the house we needed to get this fixed quickly because we didn't have anywhere to keep our stuff. I called Joe around 8 am and he was able to come by around 11. Fixed the holes and was out by 12:00. We weren't home at the time but when we came back it was like they were never there. Thanks Joe for being so available, and easy to work with. Ill keep his number for my future handyman needs! read more

Had to have the toilet seal replaced in our main bathroom. Gave me a price over the phone came out and did the job cleaned up and didn't charge me anything more than what he quoted me. He came over on a Saturday morning at 8:30 AM when everybody was still sleeping did his job very quietly without disturbing anybody l. very nice very personable cleaned everything up . I highly recommend him for handyman work around your home. read more

Scheduled a 9am appointment on a Saturday for an estimate to finish garage walls through Joe. I called hm at 915 and it was clear he forgot the appointment. After arriving 30 minutes late, he was polite and reasonable going over the work with me. He departed promising I would have an estimate by Tuesday. I inquired to him on Wednesday and am yet to hear from him nearly a month later. Don't waste your time here. It is apparently only valuable to you. read more

Joe was reliable, prompt, and a true professional. My husband and I had a fence at our rental property that needed to be repaired. Joe was able to make the repair and was fair with his pricing. I will definitely use him for any future repairs. read more

I have used Joe now on four separate occasions. I figured it was time to leave him a review. The first time I called him one of the springs on my garage door had snapped. He made the time to get over that morning. He fixed it and for $100 less than the other two handyman I called had quoted me. I called him back out for a toilet repair and a few minor things around the house. This last issue was a water leak inside my walls. Ugghhhhhh......what proved to be a nightmare was made much better by Joe. His drywall guy did an amazing job. You can't even tell it was a patch. I had him correct a patch, that was badly done, over a year ago. He also patched a hole in our garage. The night we called him a valve on our front yard sprinkler system went out. He sent a guy to fix that issue too. I have referred him to two friends. who have also used his service. Both said he did a great job. His business has grown since our initial meeting. So unless it's serious, he may have to fit you in. He's reasonable and does a good job. If you need a handyman. Joe is your guy!! read more

Joe was quick to respond and was able to fit me in the very next day. Upon Joe seeing what needed to be done, he let me know what the cost would be before moving forward. One of the issues Joe was assessing was a dishwasher. We needed to replace it and he offered to pick it up himself from Lowes. When he arrived, they told him they didn't have the right one in stock. Joe went completely out of his way to another location to get the right appliance. Long story short Joe went above and beyond normal expectations to help me and I highly recommend him. Will definitely use him in the future. Thanks Joe!! read more

Don't wait, don't live with your house in disarray. Had garbage disposal broken, leaking faucet and rotted out sink drain. Temporary fixed them on my own for months. After months of my wife upset with my "duck tape" fixes I knew it was time for a professional but I didn't want to pay an arm and a leg and wait all day for the repair guy to show up. Saw great reviews for Joe on Yelp and gave him a call. Called Joe and he was at my house 15 minutes. Looked at my garbage disposal and told it needed to be replaced. Quoted me $90 labor. Looked up labor rates from other workers and it was $125 on average plus other "fees" Joe went and got the parts and got to work right away. The work was perfect, fast and professional. Couldn't be happier with the work. Also gave me advice on how to fix my bathroom sink, much easier then I though. Thanks Joe! I will call Joe for all my house needs. Now my wife is happy and so I am happy! read more

I had so many little things that needed repaired that it turned into one massive project. Based on his YELP reviews, I called Joe and he picked up the first time. He set up a time to meet me, worked around my life and schedule, and within 4 days of that first phone call, everything in my home was fixed. He's reliable, professional, and extremely easy to talk to. I can't say enough about how quickly and professionally the process went and couldn't be happier with the work his team did. I'll never use anyone else. read more

DO NOT USE ! VERY RUDE & UNPROFESSIONAL. He came by my house @ 7:45 in the morning unannounced a week and a half later saying my dad owed him money. I'm a single mom who doesn't get home until 3:30am(so you can see my irritation with the time he rung my doorbell) Had no form of proof , my dad was still waiting on a receipt and when i was trying to confirm an amount he got an attitude and drove off! Not quick enough because I got his drivers license number. My dad gave him $540 cash the day of and he then said he needed my dad to give him cash for parts . Since my dad was told AFTER the work was completed he said come back in about an hour and he would have it (and he did) because my dad doesn't live in town . He never never came back . I tried to verify the amount before he stormed off with an attitude. DO NOT USE !! read more

Called me back, was able to get me in same day. Showed up when he said and even had someone with him. Very professional, cleaned up after themselves and my dishwasher look and works great! Will definitely keep joe handy! read more

Your search is over! Joe is top-notch and provides excellent service in a timely manner. He is very knowledgeable in a wide variety of home repair issues. I highly recommend! read more

Joe came by and repaired a light switch and drywall patch he was very nice clean and efficient and a pleasure to work with.

Joe and his crew did an awesome job on the installation of siding and painting on my garage. I converted my garage to an apartment. The front siding needed to be added to match the rest of the house. The work he did matched my home perfectly. I am extremely pleased with the job they did. I highly recommend him. read more

All around excellent! Joe was super responsive, came over on time, worked efficiently, and did great work. I had him hang some medicine cabinets and a variety of framed pictures and art. He made sure everything was fastened securely, and aligned properly. His pricing was very fair. I will definitely hire him again. read more

I called Joe the handyman in an emergency to replace my leaking water heater. He and his worker were able to install my new water heater in fast, efficient and professional manner. I would not hesitate to call on or recommend his handyman services! G. Peralta, Oceanside read more

After researching local Handymen, I found Joe and loved his reviews on Yelp! But, this story doesn't have a happy ending. He answered his phone right away, and we made an appointment to meet at my listing in Carlsbad the next day. I am a Full-service Realtor so I was taking care of something for my client. Joe came out (Thursday), saw the project which quickly became two projects. Install of a stackable W/D and adding ducting for an Air-Conditioner. He said he would have the quote ready either that evening or the next day. I didn't hear anything back by Friday morning so I texted him. He said he was still working on the bid. On Saturday and again on Sunday, I tried his cell and had no response. When you work for yourself, your reputation is really all you have. Ability to communicate is very much part of that reputation. I lost 5 days waiting for Joe to give me a written bid. If this is how he runs his business, I would most definitely not hire him. So here I am on Monday morning making appointments again for the same job. Final thoughts: If the job was too much, then he should have given me the common courtesy of bowing out early on. NO STARS read more

No Show Joe! I contacted Joe for some simple repair of low voltage out door lighting, bulb & fixture replacements, minor rewire etc. Joe & an assistant looked over the project, left the house presumably to pick up parts and never returned! I called him twice leaving messages with no return call. Apparently he wasn't interested in my project, which would be fine, had he simply told me that! Walking off & not returning follow up calls is highly unprofessional. I will Never call on Joe again! Zero Stars!!!! read more

Joe the handyman was great. We had a water leak coming up through our new wood flooring. Having a slab leak in the past I called Joe and he referred us to a water leak detection company. The water leak detection company did a great job locating the leak in the wall and not the slab. Joe came out and fixed the leak from the water pipe in the wall immediately, removed the damaged drywall and wood flooring. He took the time to explain his plan for the repairs and how long it would take. He kept us posted as to when he was coming to complete the repairs and was on time. He did a fantastic repair, fixed what was needed for a reasonable price. Highly recommend and will call him again!! Lavon D. read more

We've continued to use Joe for several other repairs over the past couple months... always does a great job! Still very happy and plan to continue to call him with our projects. read more

Great service, came by same day to replace my faucet. My honey-do list is one item shorter!

I wasted a week trying to get a clear estimate for repairs (shower heads, smoke detectors, back yard trimming) and ultimately decided against hiring him. He didn't show up for the first appointment, then when he came he didn't seem to have a clear initiative on what he'd actually repair or how much it'd cost. He said he'd send me photos but after 2 days of back and forth I only got a 3 terrible photos of the wrong thing. (He sent me photos of the wrong tree, nothing of the shower heads). He kept asking how he'd get paid before he even gave me an estimate, and overall it was a lot of stress and hassle I didn't want to agree to. read more

Joe is amazing! The first time I called him was for several projects - a leaking spigot, broken window blinds, broken shower door, and sticking windows at my Mother's house. He came over the same day and got everything done perfectly! A few weeks later, I put in an emergency call to him - To tap off water and gas lines and assist with loading a U-Haul. Once again, he responded right away, came over, and took care of everything quickly. He is also a really nice and professional guy. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you Joe. read more

He has changed the name of his handyman business several times. It would appear after enough negative reviews, he just changes the name. My experience with him was very poor. Did a terrible job, demanded the money before I even saw the finished product, and did not fix the issues. read more

Joe did a great job installing screens on my house and taking my front door and turning it into a dutch door. Reasonable prices as well.

I needed some cabinets hung up so I called Joe. He was available immediately, but I wasn't home yet. We set a time a little later that afternoon, and He came by right on time. He took a look at the cabinet, the wall and got right to work. I expected just a few screws in the wall, but Joe and his guy re-framed the cabinet and hung it very well. I have full confidence that the job was done right. The price I was quoted over the phone was the price we stuck to, and I have absolutely no qualms about calling Joe back for any jobs in the future. read more

Joe came to my house and gave a estimate on some work. He sent over the estimate and gave him the job. He said great that he would be here in two days to take care of it he never showed up. read more

Thank you Joe! My kitchen sink faucet had broken and was laying in my sink. After checking Yelp for handymen in my area, (Oceanside) I called a few. Joe was the only one who got back to me and fit me in between all his other jobs. Thanks again! read more

Amazing, amazing, amazing! I called Joe to see if he could come by and un wire an annoying smoke detector that wouldn't stop beeping and Joe was here within the hour! Not only was he fast and efficient, he had 2 smoke detectors on his truck that he installed to replace the old ones. And if that wasn't enough, he fixed my side gate that wouldn't latch and my evened out my stove burners. I will definitely call Joe again and highly recommend him! read more
