Best Shower Tile Installation in San Francisco CA
Bedr did an incredible job installing a 7-hook wall mount for all of our bikes. He was efficient, informative, and friendly. The bike rack is a HUGE quality-of-life improvement for our apartment and it Bedr made it a painless process. I'll definitely go back to Bedr for other handyman needs.

I needed an executive chair assembled, toilet seat changed, horizontal blinds changed in one window, hinges adjusted on kitchen cabinet doors. Ben responded quickly to my request to schedule and came the next morning to do the work. He was friendly, personable, knowledgeable, efficient. His rates were reasonable. Great experience. He's a wonderful find. So glad I took a chance on him.

Nemo from Handyman Heroes did great work on some complicated projects I'd been putting off. First, I had a set of suspended glass cable shelves that were taken off the wall by a temporary roommate who refused to put them back up when he left. The glass panes were too heavy for me to lift so I couldn't do it, and I'd already had one handyman come by who declined the job because he wasn't sure how to do it. I was feeling pretty worried that the shelves would never get back up (they were also years old so no longer had the instruction manual,) but Nemo did it quickly with precision and ease. I was literally shocked how fast he was.
Next, my flatscreen tv is mounted above a fireplace, and I'd had an issue where they were originally mounted too far down near the fire and the sound bar and bottom of the tv frame started melting. So I needed the TV moved up, the new sound bar installed, and a shelf installed below to deflect the heat. Best Buy, who did the initial incorrect installation, was going to charge over $400 for a full new installation. Thankfully Nemo saved the day (and my wallet) again! He got the tv adjusted and the shelf up; however, I had somehow lost the mounting hardware for the sound bar, but Nemo was able to send me a link to where I could order the replacement. I can't wait to have him return when the part arrives to finish the job.
Nemo was professional, courteous, clean, and fun to talk to. Highly recommended!!

I reached out to Ted while looking for a handyman to replace an old vanity, wall cabinet, and mirror in our bathroom. He was very responsive and generous with advice on where to get materials and what kind to get even before I had hired him.
Once on site, I found him to be super friendly, adaptive, and communicative. The project ended up increasing in scope (including tearing out and replacing some drywall) because of unforeseen circumstances. (It's an old house, so honestly I went in expecting a surprise or two.) Ted was great about laying out the options, being mindful of the unexpected increase in cost. Throughout the process I felt I was kept in the loop and consulted on all the decisions I wanted to be consulted on.
This was my first experience with a handyman and I'll definitely be calling Ted when I need one again.

Keshab is terrific. I live out of state and found him via Yelp. He connected with our tenant and took care of several different plumbing and electrical issues. He does quality work and is an excellent value, especially for San Francisco! I've worked with other handymen/women in the past and Keshab tops them all.

DO NOT HIRE. This person sent a plumber to my home who pulled fixtures out of the shower and said there was no issue with replacing them (it's fixtures only nothing inside the wall). I asked him to pull a plate back, and he yanked it off without the proper tools and destroyed the handle. He said the job was easy and told me what parts to buy, then left with my shower walls open.
A half hour later I got a text saying he can't do the job, and he REFUSES to give an explanation. My shower is now destroyed. I have never been so frustrated or felt so abused by a company. It is 5 days later and they still can't come up with a reason that the project is a problem other than it's a long drive (!) Thank God other professional plumbers are stepping in to help, and every one I contacted said this was incredibly unprofessional.
Do NOT under any circumstances engage with this person, they are not a reputable or normal company. The fact that they would do this to me and try to justify it tells you everything you need to know. Stay far away unless you want to scramble to clean up the messes they make.

Dave is the MAN, I called him about replacing a really old front door knob to a new security code handle. He answered, asked if I could
Text over some pictures of the door. After doing so he sent me a really reasonable quote, and days he is available. With in a day my door knob is updated and works amazing! He had to fix a few things to make sure it shut and locked smoothly. I'm so happy with it, he was super professional, made sure I was ok with everything before he left and ask if I had any more questions or concerns. I WILL BE CALLING DAVE AGAIN!

I had previously used him for resetting a leaking toilet in one of my bathrooms so was hoping for this next project to go as seamless. I messaged a picture and measurements requesting an estimate for a 7x7 resin shed I needed assembled. His rate was higher than several others, but I figured if I wanted it done correctly I wouldn't go with the cheaper companies. He also mentioned that he has done several of these assemblies. After mentioning I was a repeat customer, he ended up taking $50 off his quoted range so final price was $400. I scheduled with him for his next available appointment the following weekend.
He arrives one hour late (original eta 9-10a but arrived at 11a). At 9:13a he hadn't arrived so I reached out to him, he replied saying he was at another Client's walk through and was running late. I found it odd that he didn't even bother to let me know. This is where the lack of communication started.
He arrives and seems surprised that the shed is a big one. I show him the existing concrete pad where the shed is to be assembled and placed. I let him get to work. Again, I found it odd that he appeared surprised when I had provided all detail and sizes during the estimate request from the beginning. He also mentions later on it's a two man job which leaves me wondering why he said he has done these before. Certainly he would know then.
3.5 hrs later he was done. I went to check out the shed and tested the doors. Immediately I heard the door scrapping on the concrete and saw the doors were offset and did not align properly. I started to inspect the doors to try and figure out what the issue was. I also started checking the locks and handles. Next issue I noticed is there was a lug nut wrench adapter stuck to the back of the door handle. He then tells me passively that he can't get his tool off, it's stuck. At this point I go back to the door issue and he tells me that because it's larger than the concrete pad, the surrounding pavers would need to be leveled in order to level the shed to resolve the door alignment issue. I was shocked that he wouldn't mention the issue BEFORE proceeding with the assembly. No communication at all. If this issue would have been brought to my attention I could have then made a decision to fix and level the pad out before the shed was placed there. During this time he keeps assuring me it has nothing to do with his workmanship. I tell him I'll contact the manufacturer and if there's an issue I'll reach out to him. I assumed he would say sure, if there's any issues I can take a look. No, he just confirmed again that it has nothing to do with his workmanship. I immediately got the tail light warranty vibe which is never a good sign. I then go back to the stuck tool issue. I politely told him I would prefer to not have him leave his tool handing off the back of the handle and if he needed a wrench I could see if I hand one he could use (he showed up in a small sedan not a work truck so I thought maybe he was limited with tools). Before I could finish my sentence he sighs UGGGGHHHHHHH and he huffed and puffed walking away back to his car. At this point it I was not happy. I was paying him over $100/hour and he was being super rude and did a shoddily job. He then returns with a can of lubricant spray and a tool. He sprayed it and slipped his adapter off within 15 seconds. I wasn't surprised, he lacked any type communication or effort to do the job correctly.
If he would have communicated properly from the beginning and warned me of the leveling issues I would have been more than happy to pay him an additional rate to add some pea gravel or sand under the pavers or to even return another day. Now I have to pay someone else to move the shed and level the area out. Hopefully that fixes the door alignment and gap issues as I would not want to contact him again. Customer service, communication and common courtesy are non-existent.
No tip or no further work from me. I just hope I don't have any further issues down the road ( leaks).

We recommend Marin for any task you need done and we will use him again ourselves. No fuss no drama, just got on with the list we gave him. He came with his own large bag of tools and knows what additional items are needed to complete the job. So far we have asked him back 3 times in the last 6 months, to disassemble a Cal King wooden bed, disassemble a large 8' IKEA wardrobe, moved furniture to our friends' places, sweep the roof, fix doors that scrape the wooden floor, and most recently fix a non-working USB outlet and replace a bathroom fan.
