We met the UH team at a San Antonio home show and were excited to get some projects completed around the house. They were fantastic; and helped us replace 3 lights fixtures, correct some water damage on our roof dry wall, helped us move a heavy piece of furniture and replaced a faulty light switch. Charles the handyman is kind, respectful and helpful. Setting up the quote was easy and efficient with texting pictures of the work need and then an email quote with upfront, competitive pricing. We are so thankful for this company; keep up the good work guys. read more

Ultimate Handyman - Handyman Near Me

I used The Ultimate Handyman for a handful of small jobs around the house, and I'm so glad I did. Charles came out and knocked out everything in one visit--he reattached a fallen gutter, cleaned the rest, fixed a toilet, and even helped with a finicky door handle. Super affordable, flexible with scheduling, reliable, and genuinely friendly. It's rare to find someone this easy to work with. I'm already planning to have them back for the next round of fixes. Highly recommend! read more

David Damm owner of Ultimate Handyman was very easy to work with. He was great in communicating with me whenever I had a question about the project for Fence repair for my backyard. The work was done well and on time as agreed upon. The price estimate was fair for the work being done. I would definitely hire his company again for any future projects! read more

They never responded to any messages or calls. Maybe something has changed at the business. But I gave them a week to acknowledge .

This is a review about the responsiveness/customer service of this company. In my experience, it is very poor. I called this company and was told to send an email with photos of the projects I needed done. I did, and when I didn't hear anything after several days, I followed up. Nothing. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I sent a message through their webpage. that finally got me a response from David who said to call and schedule an appointment. Ok.... So I called and voicemail picked up, saying a text would be better. So I sent a text. I NEVER GOT A REPLY. Needless to say, after trying calls, emails (with photos), a web message, and a text, DONE!!! What a complete waste of time! Not sure how they stay in business. My advice? if they don't respond right away, shake the dirt off and move on! Especially if you need things done sooner than later. read more

NOT PROFESSIONAL, HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION, NOT LGBTQ FRIENDLY. This is a frustratingly long, interesting story so buckle up. We initially hired David in September of 2019 to install a Mighty Mule gate arm on our fence gate which would automatically open our gate giving us access into and out of our driveway. We pre-purchased the equipment, and hired him to simply install it. He gave us an estimate for $606.20 for, at that point we did not have time to shop around much and we paid him. Immediately after the installation we had issues with the fence. It wouldn't open or close correctly, it got stuck on a daily basis, the bottom of the panels drug against the driveway causing the system to go into error mode and turn off. The wood started to split where they installed the hinges and sagged. We called them back to fix it over the course of 2019/2020 about 4 or 5 different times. Red flag # 247...or something. Finally, in July 2020, 9 months after initial installation, the control board of the gate arm completely blew out due to the weight of the panels and the less than ideal installation of the system. We called David, multiple times, finally got him on the phone, and asked him to fix it. He said he would contact mighty mule and order the part under warranty. We asked him to fix the entire set up so this doesn't continue to happen, in addition to fixing the brackets that were splitting our fence post from the dragging weight of the gate panels. When we were finally able to get him to come out to the property he told my wife that he had a plan to remove the current wood fence posts and the all wood gate panels and replace the wood posts with metal posts (never ended up doing this) and frame the wood panels with a metal frame so there would be no sagging of the wood when the temperature changed. In August of 2020, as he was waiting to "hear back" from Mighty Mule regarding shipping the warranty part, he built the new gate panels. I am currently stationed abroad and my wife was visiting me when this metal gate framing project took place so we were not there. Pictures of the project (attached). You can see the gate is uneven, with the right panel too low, it drags on the drive way when opened. August 2020-October 2020 go by, with a broken, half-ass fence repair job and we cannot get David on the phone. Both my wife and I call him and his partner Charles multiple times a week to get a status update on the part and when he is going to fix this. When he does randomly answer phone calls, he tells me that there are shipping issues from CA due to COVID and he can't get the part etc and he will call me back later that day with a shipping update. Never once did he ever call me back. After around 2 months of this, he tells me if the part isn't in by the end of the week, he will go buy one himself from a local store and fix it that weekend. We say okay, weekend comes, he no shows and doesn't answer his phone. We play this game another few weeks. Then he tells me that he ordered the part himself "out of pocket" 2 day air and it will be in Friday, he will come by that next weekend. Same thing, no show, no call. Finally reach him, he says "they sent me the wrong part, I had to send it back". Now, I am a patient person, but this is ridiculous. Keep in mind we paid $600 for this install. We simply wanted them to fix their mess up. If they fixed it, my wife and I decided we wouldn't take this issue any further, we would let it go and simply not hire them again. BUT THEN. They finally show up at our property 9 OCT. The second and third photo show the "fixed" final product. Didn't even bother to secure the wiring. Whatever, while its annoying I can fix that. The best part, we had other contractors on site who told us David and his partner "obnoxiously" blared Rush Limbaugh the entire time- loud enough that my entire street could hear it. We also had neighbors complain. You can listen to whatever you want, but it seemed to all watching, that these gentlemen were trying to make a point. Completely unprofessional. July 2020 is when my wife hung a Pride flag with the words "equality" in front of our house. Coincidence? Recommend you find another handyman who takes pride in their work and treats all customers equally. read more

Door locks.... Great experience with David. Called as my family was having trouble with a door not closing and another door with a lock broken. Keep in mind, our house is borderline historic. David came out, made an assessment, and took time to explain what was needed. The front door was very tricky so David made sure the doors were working perfectly before leaving, you can tell he takes great pride in his work. Coincidentally my neighbor uses him as well. Thank you, David! read more

Requested and received quote same day. Charles did a great job removing old shutters, painting and installing new ones, and painting trim around front door. The only (minor) complaint: project was delayed 3 weeks because new shutters had to be ordered, but when Charles arrived he didn't have any shutters? He surveyed my old ones, then looked online and said, "I found some shutters at Lowe's, I'll go get them..." Anyhoo, the project turned out just as I wanted it. 10/10 will hire Ultimate Handyman again. read more

David came out and gave me a quote for several repairs in our house. The estimate was reasonable. We had some questions for Ultimate Handyman before starting the project and that's when we were ghosted. Absolutely zero communication from them. We've emailed, Text and left several messages and have to receive the information we needed to begin. If getting ahold of this company is this difficult before the project even starts I can't imagine trying to contact them through-your the project or if something goes wrong. read more

We had them build some shelves. This was not good from the beginning, David (owner) came to the job site to correct what his workers had done the previous day. Very sloppy work finishing the tasks and no clean up. Will not have them back... stain on the walls l, paint on the stain- not worth the hassle or cleanup. The attached pics are from the completed job read more

We were very impressed with Ultimate Handyman. We called to get an estimate of our door frame repair and given a fair price, so we booked an appointment. The professionalism that was shown as well as the job they did, was amazing. Also the price that we actually paid was under what was quoted. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs any work done. read more

David, the owner, was responsive and his team did the work exactly as promised. We scheduled them to hang a new door, repair boards on our deck, spray wash the deck, and haul away trash. Everything was done very well and they were very nice. We will definitely use Ultimate Handyman again. read more

If your standards are low, then go for him. Work was sloppy, untimely, incomplete, rushed and frankly not worth what we paid. Could not get rid of him fast enough!! He complained to my husband that the fridge was too heavy, that he had to bring one of his guys to help, likely just to charge more. Went too many times to Lowes to get materials (the wrong ones), and still used them. Did not finish painting, left trash all over the floor, dragged dirt in the house, etc, etc. So, now you know. Hire at your own risk. read more

Needed a table repaired. Called and scheduled an appointment. They called early, Charles came and fixed it quickly for a fair price. Even better, when Lowe's botched the installation of my new range, I made an emergency call and DavId came right away and did a perfect correction. Call them if you need good help fast. read more

David & his team did a FANTASTIC job on about 10 projects inside my home. I like to DIY, but some items are above my knowledge. David was able to creatively solve every problem, from complex to simple. He was also able to repair several 100 yr old sliding pocket doors that were stuck inside a wall--something I thought I'd have to find a "historic specialist" for. David is knowledgable in pretty much every arena. I'd trust him and his crew with any task and expect 100% satisfaction. I also unexpectedly couldn't be home during the two days his crew was at my house, and everything was in great order. It's nerve-wracking to trust your home and assets with someone for the first time, but they proved themselves to be the "ultimate" professionals. I'll be using him for our homes and my real estate clients. read more

Needed our back garage door replaced due to rot. David and his assistant were able to get a new door and replace it and the surrounding molding within 3 1/2 hours. Very professional and able to get the job done within a week NJ of my calling. Thanks so much, ultimate handyman! I will call again if other projects come up! read more

Only one side of our homes eave flew off in a storm. I called around 8 different companies to get it fixed but they either did not show up for appointment or flat out told me the job was too small for them. My husband would have done it himself but we have a two story with another 6 feet for the slab, so no way. David answered on the first ring, made an immediate appointment, and showed up at the exact time. He gave me an estimate that was way lower than we expected and it even ended up being cheaper than that. His guy came out at the exact time of the appointment we scheduled, fixed the eave in less than an hour and gave us a bill that was fantastic. I can not say enough good things about this company because they were just incredible. If you are worried about shady contractors then fret not any longer with these guys. We will definitely be using Ultimate Handyman for all our home projects from here on out. Thanks again, David. read more

Had them repair my fence. They gave me a fair price in the quote and stuck to the penny when it came time to pay for it! They did it all in a day. Very professional and well done. read more

I contacted Ultimate Handyman to fix two interior doors. After talking through text, I told him that I would like to hire him and asked what the next step was. He told me to send him my address and he would look at his schedule that night to see when he could send someone out, so I did. That was on a Thursday. I got no reply so I sent him a text of Sunday. Three weeks later, I still have no reply. I was looking for someone who wanted my business read more

The entire ULTIMATE HANDYMAN operation was very professional. The estimate was quick and accurate and my appointment was scheduled within my required timeframe. Doug called to tell me he would be a litttle late and upon arriving he got right to work. His work was excellent and I am totally satisfied! Doug was polite and professional. The final cost for the project was exceptionally reasonable. ULTIMATE HANDYMEN is #1 on my list for all future projects -- exceptional work all around! read more

Easy to communicate and extremely professional. Respectful team, did a great job installing my glass tub doors and light stairs on my staircase. Looking forward having the team over for future home improvement projects! read more

I was pleased with the work and response time from Ultimate Handyman. Charlie did the work on several different projects-replacing a bathroom exhaust fan, moving and adjusting curtain rods, fixing stoppers in bathroom sinks so they would actually close, and replacing a wall sconce in my kitchen. He was efficient and everything works correctly now! My only issue is that Charlie went off and left his very nice and expensive measuring tape, and despite leaving a couple of phone messages and sending a text, I haven't heard back from anyone about his reclaiming his property. read more
