“As soon as they answered the phone I knew I was dealing with professionals. They arrived on time went straight to work, cleaned up when they were finished and explained everything they did. I actually enjoyed having them in my home. Now I tell all my friends don’t stress out…
Call Mr. Handyman.” (Kyrstal Shepherd)
TestimonialsI've been an ICU nurse and university professor for 22 years. You do not have to be “Handy” to be a Mr. Handyman Owner. My husband and I have enjoyed working together on homes we purchased and renovated. We're both creative and willing to work hard for that potential we initially see in a house. Some of our purchases require more "vision" than others but we are passionate about turning houses into homes. I feel we bring this passionate drive and energy to my management of Mr. Handyman. When I don't have a paintbrush in my hand, I enjoy reading and growing roses.
