Joel is smart and experienced. He can figure out the best way to fix anything. He's clean and organized. Never been disappointed.

Hands down the BEST decision I made was hiring Joel! Joel and and his partner came to my home and fixed a variety of different things I haven't gotten around to but always wanted to. He was able to install some new grab handlebars in my bath tub and recaulked a window that the previous caulking was cracked. I also showed him one of my cabinet doors that was broke and he fixed it for free for me. He also was able to look at my ceiling fan that I am going to have him come back and install once I choose one I like. He is a jack of all trades, but specializes in painting as well. Very friendly, great prices, and great at communication. Can't wait to have him back. read more

Joel (along with LaFayette) did it again: excellent work with humor and enthusiasm, too. This was our third time using Joel at our home in Woodland Hills and he nailed it. At our certain ages, we just couldn't face assembling the double backyard swing. The guys built it in less than 2 hours, including setting up an amazing full-sized, portable work bench and laying out multiple tools. The best, will leave you happy and laughing, too. Competitive pricing always to boot. Looking forward to our next job together. read more

Ok, ok, yes, I'm picky. My father was an artist with antiquing and faux finishes. So, I checked every inch of Joel's work and it was perfect. His suggestions on what would work and would look best were brilliant. Kinda embarrassed to admit, but he left my house cleaner than when he started!! Don't tell him lol, but he could've charged much more! read more

Contacted Joel and he was able to come by the following day. I had 3 tasks for him that involved patching, painting, and repairing some doors. Joel was fast, efficient, and resourceful. Also nice personality, which is a bonus. Thanks again, Joel! read more

I have never experienced a worker as unprofessional or creepy as the one. Last night I found he had gone without permission through my bedroom - which has nothing to do with the room being renovated - moved things around, broke the air conditioner, left plaster-caked footprints all over the room, including on my pillow. It will cost hundreds just to replace what he ruined. On top of which, he is more than a month behind on the project he is supposed to have completed, leaves the living room and guest bathroom in awful condition on a daily basis, and has used our dishes to mix plaster without permission. He should be sued, and his cheap home depot loitering hired buds. Do not use. Moreover, the business owner falsely claimed my review was fake or about a different company, when of course that is not the case, and demanded it be taken down rather than fixing or addressing any of the mistakes. Since the initial review, further work produced additional problems. More dishes needed to be thrown away because of contractors mixing plaster in them without permission. A computer had to be recycled because so much tile dust got in it that the motherboard was ruined and it would no longer turn on (said computer was in the living room, not the room being repaired, but the workers kept cutting tile in the living room for no reason). Also there is so much tile dust in the wood living room floor that the floor is ruined. And through it all, a job that was supposed to be completed by mid-June remains unfinished, on top of thousands of dollars in damage. Do not use this service or Joel or charlie, and do not believe any false claims by the "business" man. Get a licenced company read more

I made an appointment with Joel to fix my roof which was leaking around the evaporative cooler when it rained. He arrived on time and he and his assistant spent a couple of hours not just finding and patching the leak, but also proactively cleaning and patching all around the cooler to be sure it didn't have any other leaks. We had a serious rain the next day and the leak was gone. Both Joel and his assistant were personable guys and a pleasure to work with. I expect to be hiring them in the future. read more

Needed my washing machine and dryer uninstalled, and Joel was reasonably priced and super efficient. Would definitely recommend him.

I was flaked on by another handyman service on a Saturday morning. He was supposed to install some modular closet units in my Master closet. I had already removed all my things from the closet too! So I started calling recommended handymen, knowing how hard it would be to actually get someone for the same day. Surprise! Joel was just finishing up another job and came right over. He and his helper assembled and installed the units and did some touch up patch and paint as well. They also cleaned very nicely. And I love my closet very satisfied read more

We've hired Joel for multiple jobs and have always been done on time, as quoted and has always exceeded expectations. When first purchased house, had a lot of crack issues on walls and ceiling and then 4 years since, none have returned. He also painted the interior, fixed bathroom sink and bathroom door. He also demoed out a room in the garage, so we would be able to park our car inside. We recently just hired him to paint our exterior of the house, which had some stucco repair and knocked it out of the park! Been a month since and still looks just like the day he finished. Joel is our go-to for any projects I don't have time or expertise to do. Definitely worth giving a call! read more

Joel did a great job doing the necessary repairs! Very professional, friendly, and responsive to any questions I had. Highly recommend!

These guys were great! They responded to me quickly and kept great communication. They did two jobs for us at our house. They did good work and for a very reasonable price. We'll definitely use them in the future. read more

Joel's has done a few jobs for me and each time has shown professionalism and has done excellent work. He can do it all. I would absolutely recommend him for anyone who needs handwork around the house. read more

Joel and Charlie did a great job mounting a stairway railing. I have been looking for someone to help me with this repair for a while. They got all the wood and supplies, sanded and made the wood railing look amazing! I even had to run out for a minute and they were trustworthy and professional. The price was fair and done right the first time. I asked them to make sure it was on sturdy as my stairs are steep. Thanks Joel and Charley! I highly recommend these guys and will bring them back for other household projects I need done. read more

Joel's Handyman Service - Stair railing mounted on sturdy! Awesome job! - Painters Near Me

Let's put it this way, you won't find a better and more knowledgable handyman around here. Joel has done many projects for us in the past 5 years and I only wish we'd met him sooner. Always get's things done on time and makes sure it's done right. He has expertise in so many different areas of home improvement and won't BS you, waste your time or your money. Make this call first! 10 stars. read more

Wanted to update Joel's review! He is second to none and one of a kind. We have used him countless times now and every time he comes through. We had a bit of an emergency, and he came after hours to help us out. He is always available to his clients and goes above and beyond to treat you like family. Anyone that gives Joel anything less than a stellar review has clearly never met him or worked with him. He is a pro through and through. Thank you Joel! read more

I really appreciate the work Joel has completed at my home. It is flawless! Great work from a knowledgeable and trustworthy business. Thank you so much! read more

Since I moved into my home 5 years ago, I have hired Joel time and time again for a variety of projects. All of his work has been great, but I especially have to say he is especially talented at painting. He has painted every room in home, plus stucco work, garbage disposal replacement, light fixture replacement, and a variety of other small jobs. He is very much in demand, so I usually can't get him out here right away, but always worth the wait. His assistant, Charlie, is also very good. read more

I love giving unbiased and fair reviews and I have to say that Joel was so reliable, honest, personable, friendly and very professional. I called over 10 handymen and he turned out to be the best fit. We had bought a complicated toy set that needed to be installed and Joel agreed to it. He and his colleague Charles showed up on time, communicated promptly every single time. The project took close to 5-6 hours and Joel and Charles completed it on time. We were so impressed and very happy with the results. It's secure, sturdy and you can tell it was done by a professional. Joel knows what he's doing!! Joel is also passionate about what he does. He just doesn't work to get money but he wants his clients to be happy with the work he has done. He takes pride in his work which is a good quality when picking any professional to do the job. I can't thank Joel enough because during this time of Coronavirus, services are unpredictable and there are no parks for kids to play but Joel's work has brought us so much joy. Our son has the liberty to play in the backyard anytime. Thanks to Joel!!! I endorse him fully. This is the toy set he built in the picture. Joel, you're the best!!! read more

Joel is the best handyman. He is knowledgeable in fixing many things in the home. Joel's expertise is amazing! Just watch him fix your furniture or cabinets. When he is done you'll know that the item is as good as new! I highly recommend Handyman Joel!!! read more

Joel was recommended to us and we could not have been happier.  Joel and Charlie removed popcorn ceiling, repaired walls, installed recessed lights and switches, and painted. Although the house was old they did a great job fixing what they came up across during the work.  We were very pleased with the work and his price was fair.  They put in an honest days work and they were both very kind and friendly.  We were sad after the job was over and we didn't see them every day. We will definitely work with Joel again. read more

Throughout my 30+ years of home owning experience I've certainly have had my fair share of using contractors and handymen for various repair or upgrade projects around the house. Unfortunately most were either bad craftsmen in general or couldn't get out of there own way when it came to showing ontime and/or performing the actual work. Joel however blew my mind for not just his promptness arriving to work each day, his cleanliness and attention to detail, or his unwavering nonstop work ethic getting the job done right, but his can do attitude for being able to professionally tackle any project from plumbing, painting, to customized wood work. In a nut shell Joel will always be a rockstar in my book and you would be settling for second best not to hire him for any project large or small. Jim Holmes Monte Vista West Hills, CA read more

I called Joel to do some work left a message on voice mail, didn't get a return call so I called again he stated the number was blocked but stated l left my number on voice mail, I gave him benefit of the doubt, I explained to him over the phone I had pictures to hang, he said he would be able to do, I told him Friday is my day off so we scheduled Friday the following week 10:00am i received a text approximately 9;00 stating he couldn't come. This didn't sit well with me so I also made a complaint with BBB. Don't waste your time with this guy! read more

We couldn't be happier with the work Joel and his crew did in our home. We hired him for painting and some repair work in our closets and cabinets. He also had a great referral for new carpet and he took care of some small odds and ends at no charge. He and his team worked fast and quality is terrific. Joel is super easy to work with and would definitely recommend him for any painting and minor repairs jobs. Thanks Joel! read more

Bought an older house in Woodland Hills in July and found Joel on Yelp the following week. He's done so much for us already and we keep asking him back. His work is always excellent and he always cleans up after himself beautifully. And I'm SUPER picky. Bonus: he's very funny, kind, thoughtful and his rates are very reasonable. Some of the things he's done for us already: Removed old cook top then installed our new cook top and its gas line. Installed two ceiling vent fans with lights in two bathrooms where there were only lights before. He had to run the exhaust hose through interior and exterior walls to get this done. Perfect inside and out. Brought in an electrician friend to help replace over 20 outlets throughout the house. Replaced and/or rewired several light switches. They also removed a chandelier in the master bedroom and moved it to our stairway in a very high, difficult to reach ceiling after removing an ugly, old, broken ceiling fan in that difficult spot. Removed another very large, very funky chandelier the previous owner left behind and replaced it with my chandelier. Mine had to be rewired before it was hung and everything was done perfectly. Installed new ceiling fan with a light in the master bedroom. When we discovered the remote control for our new fan was making an older ceiling upstairs turn on and off (!!) Joel and his electrician friend knew how to fix it; they quickly changed the code on the new fan. Repaired / patched / painted holes in walls. Previous owner left behind several cans of paint that Joel used for these repairs. In one case, we couldn't find the exact match so Joel blended two colors we had and somehow matched the existing color perfectly. Hung two towel racks in one bathroom and was very careful about placement so they were both level and were mounted at the same height in both places. Very professional. This was a simple job but his attention to detail never waivers and I sincerely appreciate that kind of effort. We already have plans to have him back to install bookshelves in a closet and paint our living room, dining room and kitchen. Another benefit of working with Joel: he hooked us up with a carpet installer who charged us HALF what the "other guy" wanted AND we got the exact same high-end, environmentally-friendly, super-soft carpet the more expensive guy tried to sell us. Can't say enough about this guy. Do yourself a favor and call Joel! read more

He is very prompt and works very well great person to talk to very funny and gets the job done without any issues i would recommend him to anyone read more

All I can say is wow! Joel was incredible! He did exterior painting, carpentry repairs etc. for us. Very reasonably priced and excellent work. Would have him back in a heartbeat. read more

I cant say enough good things about Joel. He is awesome , his work is perfection and seems he can do everything. He is clean and prompt and has every tool. Thanks again for doing such a great job! You Rock! read more

I am not one to post on Yelp much, but this time, I just had to. It has been difficult during the whole pandemic to get things done but I desperately needed to revamp my garage that has been a "catch all" over the years for everything. I read the reviews for Joel and contacted him on a Sunday. I did not expect a call back until Monday, so I prepared myself to leave a detailed message but I was pleasantly surprised that he answered. I told him that my garage needed a complete overhaul from paint,stucco repair to overall organization. We agreed he would come on Wednesday and he and his team mate Charlie came right on time. What was a daunting project ( a real mess) became a work of art. From painting to shelving and repairs, everything now has a home. What was once a place I could not stand to be in, is now a remodeled place I enjoy spending time in. My neighbors walked by repeatedly during the couple of days he was there and were so impressed with his creativity and detailed work, that I do not doubt that Joel will now be seen a lot in our community. In short, if you are looking for someone who is beyond handy, professional and thinks outside of the box for solutions, this is your guy. Joel and Charlie are an amazing team and are super great to work with. Did I mention trustworthy and dependable? read more

Did all of the work on my new home which included removing popcorn ceilings, drywalling, removing wallpaper, and painting. He also mounted my tv, installed my above the range microwave, and hung curtain rods and shelves. Joel does good work and his painting skills are amazing...clean straight lines all by hand! read more

The reviews are right, Joel IS really funny. More importantly, he's knowledgeable, reliable, and hard working. I contacted Joel to fix/replace several items in my home in preparation for selling it. Of course, some repairs ended up being more difficult than expected, but it didn't matter. Joel got it done going well above and beyond what was expected for a great price! read more

I called Joel on a Wednesday to ask about some projects I needed done. He gave me estimates over text based on the dimensions of the rooms that needed painting, tile that needed fixing, etc. That Sunday, he texted me to see if he could start the paint job on Monday. He and two other guys came the next morning, painted both rooms beautifully, cleaned up everything well, and even helped me fix several cabinet doors that were misaligned and not closing properly. He fixed these things without even being asked! Joel and his crew are hard workers, paid attention to details, and were pleasant to work with. They were also reasonably priced. I already have other projects lined up for Joel to work on! read more
