Chicagoland Handyman

I have a condo that needed to get rent ready for the next tenant. It needed quite a bit of work. He managed it beautifully. Identified some things that I was not aware of that were of concern. Easy to communicate with and on point with the work.

This is my third time working with Denny and would absolutely recommend it. He's reliable, trustworthy and professional. He does a great job. I wouldn't use anybody else to repair things around my house.

Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with Chicagoland handyman. I was looking for a handyman to complete a few projects in my home. The repairman that I initially spoke with over the phone was super responsive and very polite.

I was so impressed by the Yelp reviews and by the phone call that I immediately scheduled an appointment with him. After I finished setting up the service appointment we discussed the time, location, and other details. I immediately placed an order from my local hardware store and to have all the items (appliances) shipped to my home.

The day before the scheduled appointment the repairman messaged me that he made a mistake and that he was supposed to schedule my appointment for the following day. He also mentioned that I did not send him a deposit to lock in my appointment as if I lost the appointment due to not paying him a deposit. I was confused! We never discussed a deposit or a deposit amount when I spoke with the handyman over the phone. I did not see the other Yelpers reference in their post anything about Zelle quick paying their repairman for a deposit. I thought something was odd I immediately thanked him for his time and told him I would not need his company to complete the repairs!

Reasonably priced however I requested work for a ceiling patch up job and requested that it look flat which it did not after the 1st 2 coats of spackle. The initial price included up to 2 hours of which he worked about 1-1hr15 minutes. He charged an extra hour to apply a 3rd coat. He also forgot to do touch up painting initially which he said he'd do but did a mediocre job after he came back so I will need to repaint anyways. Communication was okay. He does ask for a deposit.

Dennis answered my call promptly and was able to come over the next day to help patch my hardwood floors after I scratched them with my drum set's pedal (get a rug, not a mat). Price was reasonable, especially for giving me some piece of mind.

Dennis showed up on time and did a great job of reattaching my kitchen sink to the granite counter-top at a reasonable cost. He also replaced some of the older rusted pipes with new ones that he ran out to buy to complete the job. He was pleasant to work with and I will use him again when I have the need.

Dennis quoted a very reasonable price.
He was right on time the day of the work in our condo bldg.  He installed a new bath sink faucet and shower head that we had purchased. We also needed new shut off valves that he ran out to the hardware store because we didn't know what size we needed.. He did a great job and was pleasant to work with. Very happy we hired him.

Responsive, attentive, communicates well. Did good work. I've done repeat business with him.

Denny came through even during a difficult week for him due to curl instanced out of his control. I had a lengthy list of home repairs that he was able to easily fix. Whether it was adjusting tub handles or replacing screen doors, he did everything quickly and with great care

Denny helped remove an old mailbox and helped install a new one in our building. He was efficient with his time and charged at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend him for any handyman services.
