JR did an amazing job on my fence! Initially I was nervous that I would have to redo the entire fence, but JR came in, made some great observations and recommendations, and then went to Home Depot and got the appropriate supplies. He assured me that the entire fence did not need to be redone, but only filled in here and there and then a few 2x4s needed to be replaced. He was very polite and easy to talk to. He was respectful of my pets as well, which I loved! He did a great job, and made sure to walk me through each step of the process so I was well-informed of his game plan to fix my fence. I am very pleased with the outcome of the fence, it was under my budget, and he did it super quick. I would totally recommend him to anyone! USE JR for all your fencing needs!

After getting a few outragous estimates and having multiple handymen flake on me, I went through thumbtack to find Rudell in an effort to replace a severely damaged fence in my back yard. Rudell responded to me immediatly, provided an estimate on the same day, and started work two days after my thumbtack query. He put in the extra effort to finish the job in one day, which was faster than his estimate. The tennants at the property were very satisfied with his courtesy and professionalism. I will absolutely use Rudell again for handyman jobs on my property!

Rudell was GREAT. I hired him to put up a wooden fence on the side of my house. He was very professional, respectful, and very punctual. He was easy to get a hold of and responded quickly whenever I messaged him. Rudell took the job seriously and even came back a couple of times to perfect his work. He even did a few extra things for me inside the house...such as hang some pictures, install a closet guide so my closet doors wouldn't swing and put a rack up in the garage. He was great with all these small things too. If you're looking for a handyman that you can count on and has good pricing then Rudells the man for you! My husband and I are so glad we found him and used him as our handyman. He really got the job done and as we wanted.

I had a 12 ft gate rebuilt for our driveway. The design is what was discussed and installation was quick...1 day work. They seemed reasonable from the other quotes that we had received. The gate works as a gate should, so we are happy.
