Hired on Thumbtack

I needed a hodgepodge of repairs that had built up over time in my bathroom - it had gotten overwhelming. Joel was super responsive, advised me via chat on what to buy from Lowe's, and arrived the evening of the same day, right on time. I think he was in my house for just over an hour and fixed SEVERAL things on my toilet as well as my bathroom door. I'll definitely hire him again.

Details: 1 toilet • Municipal water (most common) • House

What a great experience! Replied quickly, showed up on time, repaired my disposal instead of replacing which saved me money. Needed a new kitchen faucet, and the pipes were corroded and needed replaced. Joel was so easy to work with and did a great job. I will hire him again for any plumbing/electrical handyman jobs I have in the future.

Details: Yes, the existing disposal needs to be replaced • I'm flexible

Sorry to have taken so long to write this review! Joel was really great and was able to clear a toilet that had been plugged up for days! He was very responsive and punctual as well. I will definitely use him again for my plumbing needs...

Joel was very easy to work with. Unfortunately, the repair wouldn't have been worth the cost so it will be a new dishwasher for me. He was very thorough, looked at everything, and told me my options. I am satisfied with what he had to say. I would use Joel again, most definitely. I also like feeling like I was supporting a small business and not a "chain".

Details: Dishwasher • GE • Residential

Joel was able to come to unclog Our kitchen drain within a few hours. He arrived right when he said he would and worked quickly and efficiently. This is the second time we have hired him and I would hire him again.

Details: Yes, repair is urgent • Only one drain has issues • Clogging • Slow draining • House
