Stan responded very quickly to our request, then did the job thoroughly and professionally. Plus he's a very personable, community-minded, and funny, guy. Highly recommended! read more

Stan responded immediately and was more than helpful-- he actually taught me how to complete the project I had called about! I will certainly call him again when anything needs fixing! Recommend 100%! read more

Stan seems able to do just about anything, and if he can't do it, he'll say so. I called him for help with the frame to my storm door, figuring the whole thing would need replacing and it would be expensive. Nope. He and his assistant (I love how he often has apprentices with him) were able to fix what I had without replacing anything. And when that left a draft under the door, he had a strip in his truck that fit perfectly. No drafts. No bugs slipping in. I have called Stan before and will certainly be calling him again. read more

I called Stan on Friday to ask him to fix my garage door which was getting stuck, and to replace a door handle on my kitchen door which annoying kept locking on its own. It was great that he was able to come on Monday to do the work. I appreciated his clear communication about what he expected the jobs to entail, and his hourly rate, so there was no confusion about that. He gave me option of offering to utilize, for free, a previously used door handle and garage door springs that he had on hand. I'm very pleased with the work that was done and can recommend Stan for efficient use of his and his helper's time, his ample previous experience these specific types of repairs, and patience in dealing with a situation that is difficult to resolve. read more

I am, totally, unimpressed with the way you handle your business. Approximately eight weeks ago you showed up to take measurements for basement handrail and for two new doors. Finally, after eight weeks, I heard back from you stating that the job was too big....really? According to your website, there isn't much that you DON'T do. Perhaps you should reconstruct your website. You could have contacted me much sooner than today. I waited this long for nothing. You wasted my time and I will not recommend you to anyone. read more

Stan has been extraordinarily helpful to my husband and I for over two decades. He and his crew are highly skilled, and they tackle a wide array of issues. They have solved and addressed problems quickly and at a reasonable rate. We have had a lovely rapport over the years, and we appreciate Stan's efforts to help us take care of our house. read more

Stan has been doing completely excellent work for us over the years, and as always come through with wonderfully efficient, cost-effective, durable, and even creative solutions to home problems of all sorts. He and his team also happen to be kind, calm, responsive, considerate, and a real pleasure to deal with in every respect. I can't recomment stan-the-fixit-man highly enough - six stars! read more

I am an enormous Stan the Fixit Man fan. He can do virtually ANYTHING. I sit back and watch open-mouthed as he identifies structural problems, diagnoses problems and in no time at all, well, fixes them. Extraordinary efficiency and reasonable rates aside, Stan is also painstaking about his work - he is not a let's-slap-on-a-band-aid guy. He really cares, is detail-oriented and, as I said, is able to diagnose and resolve a huge range of issues, whether a lampshade is hanging at a lopsided angle, grouting needs to be redone, painting issues, a closet door has fallen off its track - and much much more. My wife and I could not have prepared our house for sale, or for that matter, sold it, probably (!) without Stan in our lives. We are grateful to him. read more

I hired Stan to do a variety of jobs over the years, and I was always satisfied with the quality of his work and his rates. He was always up front with me about costs and timetables, and he was always on time. I recommend him without reservation. read more

Stan showed up at the requested time and got straight to work! He finished with time to spare, then reviewed all the work he went over. I only regret not finding more mishaps around my house for him to repair. Stan gets my recommendation. read more

Stan P. has been my go-to handyman for the last five years. I've used other services, but Stan is definitely the best. He is prompt at returning my phone calls. When he arrives, I have a list of tasks and we go through the list together. He carefully fixes each item and encourages me to watch what he is doing. I have learned a lot about repairs from Stan. Everything he has fixed for me has been a quality job - no do-overs ever necessary. His charges are reasonable, and I am always happy when the work is done. I give my highest recommendations to Stan-the-Fixit-Man. read more

We love Stan! He either answers the phone when we call or returns our calls promptly. He is an honest, skilled, thoughtful, meticulous fixer man and also a gentleman. He can do most anything, and when he can't he gives good referrals. He is awesome! read more

I have used Stan many times over a period of 20 years for a wide variety of jobs. He has always been quick to respond, and once when my garage door malfunctioned locking my car within, he came over on a Saturday to free it with no extra charge for it being off hours. He is very flexible about undertaking jobs large and small and his prices always reasonable. I am not particularly handy and it is a blessing to have a go-to person, but he is also very willing to explain how to DIY if one is interested. read more

Several weeks ago I contacted Stan the Fixit Man for two jobs using his website email contact System. As of today, July 14, I have not heard word one from his organization. My question: why have a system on your website if you don't respond to the requests? Therefore I cannot comment on their abilities at repair or handymanship but I can comment on their ability to communicate and it seems to be poor. That is unfortunate since I really had some jobs that needed doing and Stan's organization seemed to be the perfect fit. read more

I had a very long list for Stan and his crew and I am so very happy that they were able to do it all. They worked fast, kept a sense of humor - and the price was very reasonable. I'd call them again. read more

I will start by saying that Stan does decent work and is a good person. This is not about him personally, it is about the business. If you plan to hire him, I highly suggest getting an estimate IN WRITING from him. We did not do this and the final cost of the work was $700 more than the estimate, and with no warning that the costs were going to be off by so much. In fact, he was giving us updates that costs were just a small amount higher. We had worked with him once before and his work was fine and on point price-wise, so we did not ask for a written estimate. Because we did not have it in writing this time there were no consumer rights on our side, but usually contractors are not allowed to "low ball" estimates, otherwise everyone would do it just to get the job. You've got to be able to hold them accountable somehow. He did not handle this aspect of the work well and was very confrontational about it when I asked him finish the job completely before I paid him the inflated amount. He handed my some "free" caulk and told me to have my husband finish it himself. Not the professional attitude I would expect after paying someone so much to do a job. read more
