Dillon identified the root cause of my skylight leak by testing and learning and fixing only what was necessary instead of trying to replace an entire functional skylight as other handymen had proposed. He is smart and applies critical thinking in his approach! He was very responsive. He’ll be my go-to for future work. Thanks Handy Dandy!

I am absolutely thrilled to have found Dillon the Handy Dandy Thumbtack Pro on Thumbtack. He was quick to respond to my request and reached out to hear more details on the tasks we needed assistance with in our cherished home that was built in 1892. A home with many unique quirks, which Dillon handled with great care. He was punctual, a great communicator, a problem solver and detail oriented . He is exceptional in his profession and brings a wealth of knowledge to your projects. We had nine rooms to be addressed, and a total of 20 projects to do. From caulking the kitchen counters and sink, to adding weatherstripping on two doors, to installing a new dryer vent, fixing an old drawer handle on a wooden antique built in cabinet, removing the workings of an old bedroom door knob, repairing it, and having it working like new and much,much, more. He worked wonderfully with me as we went from room to room taking down ceiling light globes and globes from various chandeliers. After cleaning we worked together to re-install each and every last one. Dillon even figured out how to take the five globes of an art deco type ceiling light, which I am extremely grateful for, as it came with the home when purchased and my employers had no information on it to go by for care. I highly recommend Dillion, am blessed to have found him, as he will be my go to on any future needs at our home. A very deserving 5 *****!!

I had the pleasure of hiring Handy Dandy for a project that involved plaster walls, door shaving, and doorknob replacements. I couldn’t be more impressed with his work. He truly went above and beyond, taking the time to ensure quality and precision at every step. Hanging mirrors on plaster can be tricky, but his attention to detail and commitment to getting it just right were remarkable. It’s clear that he takes pride in his craft, and the results speak for themselves—flawless and professional. He is also an incredibly kind human. I would highly recommend Dillon to anyone seeking quality work and someone who genuinely cares about their clients’ satisfaction.
Ps. If you have a piano ask him to play.

I had a fantastic experience with Handy Dandy! He was punctual, sending me a calendar invite to confirm the appointment, which really helped me plan my day better. His professionalism and communication skills were top-notch throughout the service. He did an awesome job, meeting all my expectations and more. I highly recommend him for anyone in need of his services.
Overall, he’s not only skilled but also a genuinely nice guy. You won’t be disappointed!
Thanks Dillon, you saved the day!!!
