If I could give Derek and Joseph 10 stars, I would. I kept throwing them curve balls with regards to work changes and added items and they kept hitting home runs. We have a few more projects that we are needed to have done and Derek has already made preparations for them. We will absolutely use D-Rex Delivery and Handyman in the future and I will happily recommend them to anyone. 10 stars!

Details: 3-5 items • Sofa • Other furniture items • Within the same building • Stairs to load items • Stairs to unload items

Dereck was extremely friendly, professional and responsive. He came in at a time when my husband was unable to complete challenging steps on a bathroom reno project by himself. We were very pleased with the quality of Dereck's skills, work ethic and were pleased with the end result. We would hire him again for future projects. Thanks again Dereck!!!
