Best Drywall Repair in Philadelphia PA

Rik and Mike remodeled my tiny bathroom in South Philly.  From a previous remodel, I had a leaky shower stall that that was tiled and grouted poorly, and they were careful to demo the problematic walls and floor, while salvaging tile on opposing walls, storage cabinets and cubbies, and a medicine cabinet that I wanted to keep.  

When the floor came up, we discovered a rotted subfloor, compromised joists and some water damage.  This was not something we had budgeted for in the initial estimate, but Rik recognized that the new priority was structural integrity and was reasonable about additional costs for sistering compromised joists, moving water lines, and giving me a new subfloor.  

When there were new issues or detours they had to take (the bathroom is in a 100 year old building), Rik ran all changes by me and let me know what options (and their respective costs) we had.  At one point, he even brought in a structural guy to double check the direction he recommended we take on those compromised joists.

Post demo and remediation, they installed everything I had bought for the project - the new toilet, the new shower stall, new shower walls, new vanity, new fixtures and new tiling on the floor.  That part of the project took the amount of time Rik had estimated, and the only time-related hiccups were caused by the rotting subfloor and joist sistering, which were not foreseen.

Rik understood that my number one priority was making sure that the shower was watertight, and he pointed out different steps during the way that we accomplished that goal.  I'll update this review periodically to let you know how watertight it remains.  

Finally, there was the issue of construction debris.  Rik and Mike did this work in late July and early August of 2020, when the city's sanitation department was racked with COVID-19 and some trash pickup did not occur on schedule.  While they put debris in large white bags labeled contractor bags and expected the city to haul them off.  However, once city services resumed, the sanitation department (for 2 consecutive weeks) would take all trash EXCEPT the contractor bags and the old toilet Rik and Mike had placed at the curb.  

When I notified them of this, Rik did the right thing.  Even though our financial dealings with one another were in the rear view mirror and the new bathroom had been completed for nearly 2 weeks, he swooped by 48 hours later to pick up the debris and properly dispose of it.  

In all, I was very pleased with Rik and Mike's work, and I would hire them again.

Very honest and reliable. We used the company to replace the roof on our property in PA and Jamal was very accomodating. Showed up when he said he would and completed the work  on time. Sent pics after the job was done since we don't live in PA. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a professional, honest and affordable contractor.

I had a pipe freeze on Xmas and was desperate to have someone come out asap, since we didn't have any water all day. Keith was responsive, came out right away, replaced the broken pipe and I'm back in business. I really appreciated communicating through the app, and as well via text. I hate calling places. I'm so impressed, I scheduled more work to be done with Keith, that I had been delaying for months. Thanks again!

Great work! Professional, on time, courteous, knowledgeable. Would recommend!  Came in to do some work on a shower. Made sure I knew what I was Getting into, did the job when he would, how he would, in the time he said it would. Pricing is very reasonable.

Would utilize again!

Followed through in a timely and efficient manner and cleaned up afterwards. I would hire again.

I'm really glad we found Rey! My husband and I own a rental house while also working full-time jobs so when DIY repairs don't go as planned, as was the recent situation for a broken dishwasher, we need help. Fortunately, my husband got the dishwasher working again, though he found getting it back together correctly wasn't so easy. I searched for someone to do the job and found RM Handyman Services. Rey was extremely responsive, punctual, and got the repair done super quick! Knowing that we can turn to Rey, we can bypass doing the repairs ourselves, and go directly to him.
