One of the worst handyman experiences I ever had! I would give 0 stars if I could. I needed help with drywall repair of the ceiling of my shower stall. The previous homeowner did not use waterproof paint for the shower stall ceiling. Over time, the drywall accumulated moisture and started to crumble. I reached out to Mr. Wang for help because his reviews on Yelp were decent. He came out to my home to assess the problem. During the assessment, I asked him a technical question about whether the paint on the shower stall ceiling was waterproof. Now this is where the problem started. A normal person would just answer the question with a yes or no response maybe followed by a short explanation. Instead, he quickly grabbed a scotch pad that was sitting in my bathroom and violently scrubbed 3 areas of my bathroom wall to "demonstrate" that the paint was waterproof, which I did not ask of him at all and preferred him not to do that. There are now 3 scuff marks where the glossy paint lost its sheen from him using an abrasive to scrub the paint. The largest is about 10 inches long. I have posted a picture of the damage. I confronted him about his actions the next day, but he refused to repair the damage or give me financial compensation. When you hire a handyman for a job, it would be fair to expect that he fix the problem you hired him for and not cause a more expensive mistake. In order to restore the wall to the condition before the damage, I would have to hire someone to re-prime and repaint at least the wall or the entire bathroom, which would cost be a few hundred to $1000. Also, not to mention the inconvenience of not being able to use the bathroom for a few days for the work to be completed and for the paint to dry. From his Yelp page, it looks like he has been a handyman for at least 10+ years. So I don't know why a handyman with that many years of experience wouldn't know that the paint would be damaged if you scrubbed it with an abrasive pad. He really should have asked my permission first before doing something like this. I feel like this whole fiasco could have been prevented if he had used better judgment. I regret hiring him for the job. However, I did not know at the time that he would cause damage to my property. read more

Wang the Handyman 王師傅 - Damage done to my wall paint - Plumbing Near Me

Fast, kind, cheap. Three words to describe. We had a problem with pipe from the shower room and had a leakage. I was not capable of fixing it by myself so i had to find a handyman. My wife got a recommendation of Mr. Wang, and we contacted him. Since he was here.... We asked him to fix quite many things. lol shower heads, pipes, faucets, toilets..... all done pretty quickly. Afterwards we had another issue, and he came on the same day and fixed within 2 hours. We had experiences with other handymen before, and they were good too. But I do believe this guy is very flexible and the price was definitely the cheapest and reasonable. read more

Wang the Handyman 王師傅 - When there was leakage.. - Plumbing Near Me

Mr. Wang was a true professional. I reached out to him last weekend for an appointment today. He was on time and assessed the work requested before going back to his van to gather the necessary tools. I asked if he could remove two stubborn existing bathroom door knobs while replacing them with new ones. He installed two 16" bathroom towel racks. Lastly and the most lengthy, he removed our existing, dating thermostat for a Nest. It took longer than we anticipated but he was patient the entire time. All the work and then some was completed at the reasonable rate he had quoted me during our first communication. He does not bait and switch nor upsell. Thank you Mr Wang! read more

I just love Mr. Wang so much. I need a door replaced. After getting the measures from Home Depot (I do not want to mess with the correct measures, better getting the professionals to do it), I called Mr. Wang. He came over and we took off the door AND also a metal door (which is not replaced). Then we found the door jam/frame is totally damaged by termite, which explains why the door cannot be closed tightly. After evaluating the situation, I agreed that we replace the frame as well. So we got three 2 by 4 wood bars from Home Depot. Mr. Wang had to open up the dry wall to replace the frame.....so everything was quite messy but things were done in 9 hours, with the new door frame, the new door installed, the metal door installed, the dry wall put back and primed. All for a very reasonable price. Mr. Wang is honest yet very accommodating, so I highly recommend him. read more

Mr. Wang is very knowledgeable. We hired him for a house remodel when our original worker gave up. He's very knowledgeable about electrical work. He was able to tell us what was wrong with our wiring. He swapped out all of our light switches, outlets, installed lights, and condensed the number of switches in the house. He double checks what you want and has you look over his work after he finishes to make sure you're happy and that he finished everything. read more

I hired WPJ to renovate my house based on the good reviews in Yelp. Mr. Wang showed up on time for an estimate. The job includes replacing the fascia around the roof, removing the trellis in the backyard, caulking the bathtubs, repainting the exterior doors, troubleshooting/fixing the lighting/wiring issues in the kitchen. He also found a burst pipe in a hard-to-reach area and replaced it. He is very experienced and skilled to give a face lift of my old house. He is easy to work with, and honest. The charges are reasonable. I would recommend him to friends and family. read more

The flush valve of one of my toilets needed to be replaced so I called Mr. Wang. He came over the same day and replaced it. It was a small job and I had done it myself before but I am at that age now that I feel better to have a handyman taking care of such things for me. I will ask Mr. Wang again. It's best to text him because his spoken English is limited. read more

He hasn't done any work for me but I feel compelled to leave a review on his first visit because his rudeness and unprofessionalism were on another level. * When asked basic questions (years of experience, how many people working onsite), he dismissed them. As someone hiring him, I have a right to know. * He refused to provide a receipt. If you run a proper business you should have no problem providing receipts of your work. * He has his way of doing things. I wanted an access panel installed behind the shower valve. He overrode me and said he would cover the whole area with drywall. The access panel is there for a purpose! Good luck trying to reason with him. * As he was leaving he even muttered an insult under his breath because I chose not to hire him. Just because you think you can do the work doesn't mean you're entitled to my business and certainly doesn't mean you can give potential customers an attitude. His price is comparable to those of other unlicensed handyman so it's not like he would go above and beyond for that. No self-respecting person should have to put up with his attitude. read more

Wang is Okay, have him to come check for a blown fuse in the kitchen, and it just need to replace a wall recepticle, It took approx. 30 minutes the most for the whole thing. and I've got charged for $130.00.

Mr. Wang is AWESOME! It is soooo hard to find handymen who are efficient, honest and timely. One issue though is that he only speaks Mandarin. I'm fortunate that my father speaks Mandarin so he was able to help me with translating. When we called Mr. Wang to come do some small tasks around my house, he said he would have to come and see it before giving us a quote. He wanted to make sure that the projects assigned were things he was comfortable completing. He came out for a free quote and agreed to do the tasks I had in one day for a reasonable price. It included: mounting a TV, installing curtain rods, changing two light fixtures, adding a shelf in my kitchen, assembling and securing my over the toilet vanity, changing a toilet seat, changing a door lock, and installing a mesh net over my back door to keep mosquitos out. It took him awhile but he came in and went straight to work. If he felt like something was unstable, he was sure to let me know. He gave me options to help make my needs met. I was really happy with Mr. Wang and I wish more people would just work the way he does. I also wish he spoke English! But if you can speak Mandarin, Mr. Wang is your guy! read more

I had a water leak that caused discoloration and minor damage in the garage ceiling. After speaking to a contractor, an insurance adjuster, and a water damage restoration crew, in the end my plumber added an extra wax ring underneath the toilet to stop the water leakage. Now I needed drywall done to complete the repair work. Mr. Wang was friendly, knowledgeable, arrived on time and repaired the ceiling area. He also helped sweep and clean after the job. I notice care and quality he puts in his work. I would recommend Mr. Wang's services. read more

This must be the 3rd time we are hiring Mr. Wang to do some work for our 5-unit condo complex. This time, we asked him to replace the exterior water heater room door for 3 of the condo units. The old doors were badly damaged by water and drywood termites. With the new regulation, each door needs to have 2 vents, one near the top and one near the bottom. The problem with the vent at the bottom, like existing doors, is that when water (from rain or sprinkler system) gets into the door via the part of the net/screen that is inserted into the door or by some other means, the door swells and eventually falls apart. Mr. Wang and I together came up with a way to deal with the issue. We caulked around the nets/screens in the vent openings, covered up the lower vent with a metal vent cover, caulked around the metal vent cover, covered up the bottom part of the door with a galvanized sheet metal bent into a U-shape (see attached picture), and painted the door. We believe that this will adequately prevent water from ruining the doors. I am very pleased to be able to work with Mr. Wang on this and appreciate very much his flexibility, adaptivity, and creativity. I strongly recommend his service. In fact, I have recommended him to my son to do some work inside his house. read more

We needed to remodel our condo in Alhambra and were looking all over for an affordable, but fair and competent contractor to do the work.

He and his crew were very prompt, did the work in about a week, and the workmanship was up to par. I would definitely recommend! read more

We had a tough job involving a small kitchen remodel which required precision cutting of our existing granite counter top and cabinetry to fit a new oven range. This job was not easy and not too big. So most handymen would not want this type of job. I've interviewed at least 3-4 handymen and was either turned down by them or was quoted an unreasonable price. So here comes Mr. Wang to our rescue. He was well-mannered, meticulous, and reasonably priced. He explained each step of the process and reviewed all of the potential problems involved with this kind of job. Of course, he finished the work without a hitch and within the stated timeframe. We were all very happy with the final product and outcome. He highly recommend him for his integrity and service excellence. read more

Wanted some demo work done, and kind of need to look up in the attic to see if it can be done. He didn't want to, just wanted to demo first without looking. Unprofessional. Doesn't repair door or window frames, and hardwood flooring, well I guess mine was hard to work with so he said no. I feels that so many handyman either want projects or construction work or general contracting work. read more

Using Yelp we found Mr. Wang this morning. We had a kitchen faucet that leaked and needed replacement. We bought a new faucet set from Home Depot and asked Mr. Wang to remove the old unit and install the new one. Mr. Wang is very experienced and thorough. Carefully he examined the leak, told us we needed an adapter to connect the pipe in the wall and the new faucet we bought. He offered to go to Home Depot to get the missing part. He removed the old faucet carefully and cleaned up afterwards before installing the new unit. After all was done, he stayed to keep checking to make sure there was no more leak before he finally left. He also tightened a faucet in a bathroom that was loose and previous plumbers could not do. Mr. Wang is professional, friendly, and really thorough and cleaned up after his work. I would give him a five and recommend him highly!!! Sylvia read more

Mr. Wang helped me install a new dishwasher that I bought from Costco in my kitchen a few months ago. It has been functioning very well ever since. Costco's appliance comes with much better warranty (2+2 years) than places like Sears. The vendor affiliated with Sears also wanted to charge me much hefty installation fees. read more

I was trying to look for a handyman thru yelp to put laundry drywall, add shelf & Hanger rod to closet, and take out old Medicine cabinet, replace / add drywall. I read 5 stars reviews, called someone over to provide a quote. Without telling the handyman all to do list but only 2 tasks, we already knew the quote was way too high beyond negotiation. Sorry, we really don't want to waste your time and our time as well. I gave a call to Mr Wang 王師付，although he got only one 5 stars review. He came next morning and provided half price quote what the other handyman quoted to us. He started to work next day. We really got lucky to hire him. His did a great job without complaining and he really shown that he's willing to do everything. He even took care extra work by replacing a new electrical switch without charging extra. He's awesome, honest, respectful, and skilled & detailed while working. I highly recommend Mr Wang 王師付！ read more

He was very quick responding to my call, came over right away for assessment, and was very thorough in explaining the scale of work and options to consider.

If I could give him a six star review- I would. He came out to fix a problem and stayed three plus hours to fix the problem and didn't charge for the extra time.

I trust him immensely and would not only recommend him to to others,but will have him back for other repairs in the future. read more
