About
Hi my name is Perry Van Soest. I have been living in Santa Barbara working on my family's avocado orchard for the past 3 years, before that I had working for my step-father's painting company in Manhattan Beach since I was a teenager. While I am most experienced in painting and everything associated with that trade, my other skills involve plumbing, drywall repair, mounting tv's, hanging pictures, basic carpentry, demolition, basic electrical, junk removal, pressure washing, driveway resealing, landscaping, small machine maintenance, RV maintenance, furniture assembly and repair, and I own a wide variety of tools.

If you have to use a Handyman Service, I would only use Thumbtack. The others appear intransparent as to what you pay and/or you do not pay the Handyman directly. Within Thumbtack, I recommend Perry: hardworking, smart, efficient .

Well I was surprise Perry didn't bring wood glue with him. He saw what needed to be done with the pictures he brought. I also wanted a receipt for the work and some kind of guarantee it would last more than a month. He said he would come back to repair it if it didn't hold up.

Perry patched and prepped our cabinetry and has handled several painting projects and odd jobs around the house. I appreciate most his energy and enthusiasm for jumping right on top of a project. His professionalism gets it done quick and with quality! I highly recommend Perry for your handyman needs!

Perry did a great job fixing my broken cabinet and bed frame. He was able to problem solve the best way to secure it and was very efficient. I would definitely use his services again
