Abington Handyman Services

After contacting several local contractors AND placement agencies, I pulled up Abington Handyman and FINALLY got a response. And by several, I mean well over 10. These guys seem to handle a wide variety of installations and repairs, but in my case, I needed 3 new doors installed. It’s an older home with bizarre measurements and strange hardware, so I figured it’d be best to hire someone who knew what they were doing.
So, as opposed to continuing this novel, I’ll sum up my experience with Bob and his team…
— Contacted them through their website initially. Immediate and continued contact with Bob through e-​mail and phone.
— Bob set up comfortable dates and showed up when he said he would for the initial inspection.
— Very knowledgeable and informative on pre-​installed door hardware and future possibilities. Was very open and honest about door options, materials, types, and pricing.
— Made sure we were very clear and comfortable on all contract terms before starting anything.
— Treated me, my housemates, my home and property with complete respect.
— Left it clean, left it pro.
I have my doors now, and it was a job well done. I’ll be keeping Bob down for the future. If you need something done, give them a shot! At least let em’ swing by and talk to them… Bob and his men are very kind people, and they know what they’re talking about.
Also, John B. — if you weren’t satisfied, I trust you spoke with them. They’re completely reasonable, and your contract protects you. Secondly, if you TRULY weren’t satisfied, perhaps your review should have stated WHY. A single, vague, negative comment makes YOU look bad, not THEM.

I can’t take full credit for finding this service as my mom has been using them for a while. She recently had my room repainted since I will be moving back home for the 18 month duration of my Nursing program. Whenever I have been home to observe the jobs Abginton Handyman Services has been doing for my parents, I’ve been really impressed. Our 30 ft hight back deck was stained in a week. My room and the entire hallway was painted within a week. They even took all the doors in the hallway off of the hinges and sanded them outside to reduce dust and such. Now I know that’s just good practice and common courtesy, but really… alot of painters would just sand everything where it stands. My parents’ asked them to patch and paint some areas in our dining room and, instead of just going over the bad spots, they sanded and repainted the entire wall for continuity’s sake! These guys are thorough! Also, they are reasonably priced — the owner, Bob, includes everything (labor, paint, etc) in his estimates instead of nickel and diming you on the other end. His contractors are efficient and well skilled in their individual trades. I would definitely recommend them for that next home project you’re thinking of undertaking, but probably shouldn’t do on your own — like replacing the garbage disposal.
