Local Carpentry Services in Durham, North Carolina

I have used Mr Handyman of Wake County for some time now and was referred to Mr Handyman of Chapel Hill for some repair work on a leaky gable vent in my home. From the time I contacted them, Shane the owner, took the time to contact me, answer my questions and do some research regarding what they would need for the job. They were prompt for their appointments and made great assessments of what needed to be done for the repair. Shane my technician was wonderful to work with. He took extra time and care to ensure that the materials they used would last (using tempered wood instead of just painting, etc). They were very fair with their charges and were transparent about all of it. I cannot recommend them enough, good guys who do great work.

Sam was exceptional!

Rick was a fantastic technician. He was friendly, efficient, and professional. I had a four-item list and he got through it quickly and with care!

This is the type of service you use when you want something done right. It is not cheap, but you truly get what you paid for. I've used it twice, and will continue to use it for jobs around the house I'd rather not do myself, but want someone to do the work the way you'd do it if you were. It's a DIYer's DIY service, so-to-speak. The first job Mr. Handyman did for me was repair a door frame / sill that was installed improperly by the original builder of my home… and prevented my door from properly closing flush. Gary did a fantastic job, down to the finer details of caulking and touch up work, and even with the clean up and vacuuming up debris. The second job, was a more extensive fence repair that required removing old posts and footings and repouring them with new posts. Rick and Sam did a fantastic job, were very professional, kind, and personal. They even custom made fence post toppers to match the existing ones, hauled away and cleaned up all job site materials and debris, and raked my pinestraw back to the right areas where they had cleared it. They also poured some drainage rock around the posts to create a barrier between the newly footings and the damp pine straw… preventing rot from occurring and the same problem surfacing again down the road. Overall, every bit of the service exceeded my expectations and I'd truly recommend them to any homeowner looking to complete jobs the RIGHT WAY versus outsourcing them to people who could care less about the quality of there work. You might be hesitant, like me, to use a big-name service like this, but you get a personalized experience and service the entire time: from project introduction to completion. It felt like my friend or neighbor was doing the work. I will be back!

Miguel arrived on time and immediately covered his shoes with booties. He worked diligently at installing two grab bars into the ceramic tile shower and upon completion, thoroughly cleaned every speck of dust. I highly recommend Handyman of Chapel Hill, and especially, Miguel.
