Since I have had several Spectacular Splats, I accrued some injuries that won't allow me to complete the work I started. I need a handyman to do the things I can't do anymore. You know, little things like ripping out cabinets in my kitchen, repairing the wood around a window, demolishing an unneeded closet, removing old, nonfunctional gas wall heaters (I converted my house to all electric), building a small, low deck, putting down new LPV flooring, painting the exterior of the house, repairing a couple of broken switches anad outlets, hanging ceiling fans, that sort of thing. I don't know if Shane can do **all** the things I need done, but he can do most of them. And that makes me happy, because Shane is awesome. He answered the phone (which is important, getting voice mail for the initial contact means I never get a return call), we talked, I told him the 2 most critical things I needed done, and he arroved within the hour to do them! I needed an old kitchen sink removed since I had plumbers install a new sink on the opposite wall. I'm going to put my stove where the old sink was. And I needed an upper cabinet moved so I could put a new refrigerator there (mine is 43 years old and getting fragile and cranky and harder and harder to repair). He removed the old sink beautifully, did a fantastic job, cleaned up after himself. It was great. The upper cabinet presented issues. Apparently, back in the 1940s, when this house was built, those cabinets were installed as a permanent part of the house. There were no nails or screws to remove to take down the cabinet. It was well and truly built in. We discussed it, and instead of removing the entire cabinet, we decided to remove a section of the cabinet, just enough to let the new refrigerator in. That would leave me with the upper shelf just under the ceiling, and half the lower shelf. I decided to leave the doors off so it would be open shelving, and have decided the upper shelf that I need a 4-step step ladder to access will hold my flower vases and ornamental knicknacks like the tabletop centerpiece figurines. And maybe part of my gnome collection. And my kitchen Toad can be comfortable there, too. The lower shelf can easily hold my most used cookbooks. I only need a 2-step stool to reach that. Shane was wonderful - he didn't comment on the clutter of all my previous pre-injured messes, the state of the floors I intend to replace (and oh that linoleum is AWFUL) (I plan to hire him to replace the floors in my house, but that will be the last major handyman work I will have - that's OK, I have a LOT more). He charged a fair and reasonable rate and I increased that because of the trouble we had with that upper cabinet. I'm sure he was frustrated at not being able to do what I originally wanted, but I am happy with the solution we arrived at for it. And he was fast, kind, professional, skilled, and all the things you want in a person you bring into your home to do a job. I have plans for this man - lots of future work as I save up the money for each project. Next up: the 2 windows we discussed. One has rotted wood to be replaced, the other, I want to convert to a door with a small deck and ramp. I'm not sure if I'll have the money before or after the new year, and we may have to wait on the weather, but that's the next project. So stay tuned for that review! read more

We had to have everything corrected after paying for the repairs. We asked him to come and finish the job. It's he promised the next day. He was a no-show. We also got homophobic voicemails and crazy texts from Shane after the work was done. If you'd like to message me direct I can share them with you. I'm not able to post here. read more

I wanted to brag on the Designated Handyman! The stove arced when I turned it on and then it wouldn't work. I got ahold of Shane, the Designated Handyman, and told him what was going on. He was able to come out the same day, troubleshoot the problem and fix it! He took the time to explain in detail what happened so that I would understand. Overall, it was a great experience and he charged a fair price. We will definitely be calling him for any future problems and we highly recommend him! read more

First thing he doesn't take credit or debit cards and you don't find out until the work is done. Secondly 2 weeks later when we ran the dishwasher it did not drain. We thought the washer needed repair or replaced. Another company came out they said the plug on the new disposal was not removed so the dishwasher would not drain. We were charged $125.00 for this. Called Shane tried to get 125.00 refund from him. He said sorry and hung up. Would not use him again would absolutely not recommend him. read more
