I never know whether to trust rave reviews on Yelp, but in the case of Brian Ludlow, owner of…read moreLudlow's Handyman Services, the five star ratings are spot on accurate. I needed a mailbox installed and had tried for 3 months to schedule various handyman recommended by neighbors. I finally took things into my own hands and searched for a reputable and highly rated handyman on Yelp. There were several options to choose from, but I was immediately drawn to Brian's business because it is locally owned and operated by him. Plus, I really liked his bio. I could tell he was someone who enjoyed his work and was focused on high quality outcomes for customer projects. Brian did not disappoint. Every step of the process was a good one. My first point of contact was through Yelp messaging. That's when I first knew I was on the right track because Brian promptly replied. Moreover, his communication skills were excellent from the get-go. He was able to fit me into his schedule a few days after my request. He arrived on time prepared with what he needed to do the job. Everything went smoothly, especially because Brian and I had reviewed the installation instructions through photos I attached to our Yelp messages. He was able to acquire the remaining needed materials that I did not have on hand. Brian clearly knew what he was doing and got the mailbox installed without any problems. He charged a reasonable amount and was a pleasure to work with. I had a great customer experience. I already have other projects lined up for him. Living in a 200-year-old home is going to provide plenty of opportunities to call on Brian's experience and excellent problem-solving skills.

Dean was super responsive when I initially reached out. He asked all of the right questions to…read moreensure he had the info he needed. He put wallpaper in our powder room and an accent wall in a home office. I am so happy with the way everything turned out. He also installed smart dimmer switches for us! Dean was personable, friendly and most importantly did an awesome job. We'll be contacting him again for our next random project. Thanks again for all of your help!!

We faced challenges…read moredue to the age of the home and Pete's experience, creativity, willingness, and determination ultimately solved some difficult issues.

Called Jeremy at the last minute for a friend (old woman without a/c for over a week, Gerhard's…read morecould only sell her the unit, couldn't help after that!). He squeezed us in the SAME day. Installed the a/c unit and moved the old unit for her. AND WOUDN'T TAKE A DIME! Customer service is alive and well and it's name is Jeremy. Excellent work and a good man. Highly recommended. I wish I could post this on Google, but I don't have a smart phone.

I recently hired Nick for a variety of tasks, including installing modern door locks (the kind with…read moreBluetooth and fingerprint access - they're fantastic!), replacing my kitchen faucet, and repairing a sticky sliding door.

All task was completed with the results beyond expectation, I highly recommend Nick

He was able to fix a glass shower door no one else had been able to fix (but claimed they could, instead they made it worse) in just 5 minutes , and helped me understand my lighting system, set up my new Litter robot and assess a few other items, being very honest about what was and wasn't in his wheelhouse. Will definitely bring him back for more projects we discussed. He is polite, very efficient, cleans up after his work, kind and honest.

I'm completely satisfied with their work.

Waste of time! I met with the business owner and reviewed with him the work I needed completed and…read morewithin a couple weeks I received the quote. However, upon reviewing the quote, there was an item missing and a couple changes I wanted to make. I talked with the owner about the changes, as well as the items they forgot to include on the quote, and 2 months of waiting for a new quote and several phone calls later - I still have nothing from this business. Horrible customer service; I would not recommend using them.

A few weeks ago I called for a quote. I spoke with a professional over text and he guided me…read morethrough serval questions and helped me with everything I needed to know. I did not end up needing a plumber to come to my home and because they took care of my concerns over text. The person even offered for me to text them if I ran into any issues while handling my plumbing concern myself. Because of the kind and helpful service I will always call A1 first! They're the best I've ever worked with! 100/10!

Also great to work with. Communication regarding project and during the job was very informative and thorough. Pricing of the project was discussed at beginning and they were pretty precise with their projected pricing of the project. They completed the project exactly how I was picturing it to look. Thank you again and will definitely use them again for another project.

No lie, I've never had a window look so good. Phil came out to address some rot in my window frame,…read moreand when he removed the old wood, it was worse than he thought.

I negotiated a price for a bunch of dry wall repairs and reframing my front door. Because it was in…read moretheory rotten and needed to be reframed. Turns out it needed better screws in the hinges. This didn't result in a discount. I didn't fight it because he spent about 12 hours 'fixing the dry wall'. Promised that it would be paint ready, which to me means excess dry wall cleaned up textured, and seams smoothed. Several spots were missed the first day, but addressed by revisiting the provided the second day. At the end of the second day when he finished the same cracks were still visible with just a massive amount of dry wall going away from the cracks. Along with that things were patched that were on the list with so much mess I had to remove the spackle and do the spot again. He also didn't texture anything during cleanup so things are not paint ready. On top of the amount of mess left behind, I spent hours this weekend cleaning up dust and starting to correct the work. I was hoping this would save me hours of work cleaning and sanding drywall myself. This is not the case between needing the work redone and the cleaning. I wouldn't recommend them for dry wall work.

From online reviews, I contacted Levan, the owner, who responded very promptly to come over and…read morelook at two lamps that I needed to have repaired, even though it was at the end of a long day for him. He quickly understood what he thought would be necessary, said he'd pick them up the next day and, once he took them, had them fixed and ready to go in just a few days. He also brought them back with new bulbs, including one that dims (which I hadn't had before). The price was extremely reasonable and he was personable and very polite. I recommend him without reservation for your electrical needs.

Before you read anything else, go look at my other reviews. I don't hand out 5 stars unless they…read moreare deserved and I'm all honesty, Levan deserves every bit of it. I put in a request through yelp. He had the best price and moved his scheduled around to accommodate my current needs (house selling, inspections, etc) He was there early and had finished by the time he was actually supposed to be there. It was a simple outlet issue and instead of charging for the outlet, he showed me that the outlet was good just needed to be rewired. He really could have ran the price up but chose to be genuine and when you have someone like that (much like a good barber or mechanic) you don't go elsewhere and you go out of your way to tell people about them. I will certainly be contacting him on the future. Levan is based out of Newtown and really "could" charge Newtown prices but is an honest and trustworthy guy. Highly recommend. -J
