Handyman recommendations?
« on: January 24, 2010, 10:01:14 PM »
I have a relatively large kitchen with dinning space that need to repaint the wall and cabinet.
Also, the lighting fixture need to be replace.  Generally speaking, how much does it cost to hire someone
to do this work.  I believe it shouldn't take more than one day to do this.  And, can anyone recommend
good handyman or contractor to do this?  Thanks.

If you have had a good experience with a handyman please recommend one to me.  I am new to JH and am having a hard time finding a reliable one.  TIA!

It also depends on condition and amount of work. Do you need just painting? spackling? Do you need a a primer first? My husband  charges $25 hr plus you need to buy materials. This is pretty standard-even hiring someone off the street.

I use a guy named Mark.  He lives in Jackson Heights. I don't want to post his cell here without asking but his email is teedoff6@hotmail.com.  He just painted and tiled my apt and did an excellent job.

Hi bellabella. I have a friend who could use handyman services. How can I get her in touch with your handyman husband? She just moved in and needs things like - taking apart some ikea furniture, fixing a hinge on an armoire, hanging some shelves in a closet - etc. Please, contact me  - 347-484-6001. thanks

I also had the same Mark [Caban] over for a long list of "honey-do" things I just didn't want to stress over.  Great guy.  Easy-going, efficient, very professional, v. reasonable rates.  And skilled.  Will def. have him back over for a few more things.  Did I mention that he brought over pastries from his favorite bakery?  teedoff6@hotmail.com is indeed his email!
