Best Handyman Repair in Fresno CA

Thanks Ed for troubleshooting my short circuited yard light on a Sunday.  And worked all day on Monday to finish the new line to the light .

We needed to replace three outside doors.  John responded in minutes, and we made an appointment for him to look at the doors.  He came promptly at 8 am, and suggested replacement doors and a total bill at a very reasonable price. He purchased the doors at Home Depot, brought them in his truck to our home and installed and painted them on the same day!  Excellent workmanship, very professional, and prompt.  We are quite satisfied with the work and would recommend him highly.

I needed a handyman and couldn't find anyone. I ended up finding  Jason and he immediately responded. He came out immediately and gave me quotes on my jobs. His prices were fair and he showed up on time and did excellent work. Couldn't be happier with his services. He dug out and leveled a 13ft x 13ft area for me, laid pavers and built a greenhouse I had purchased. He also repaired / rebuilt  my gate. Removed several small trees. Several other odd jobs in the house such as fixing leaks etc. Jason is fair priced and trustworthy. If he cannot do a job he will tell you. He goes above and beyond to make sure things are done right. All in all I would give Jason a 10/10 and will be using him  in the future.

Guy never followed through on the date he said he would go out and check my home ! FLAKEY!!!!!!

We have had a horrible pantry situation since we moved into our home. We finally saw some ideas on the home improvement shows that seemed like they might work for our situation.  We contacted several people/businesses and it seemed like no one really wanted our business or our job was not important or big enough for them. We finally found Mike Gilgen from Gilgen Handyman and Construction. He was responsive, came out exactly on time every time. He understood exactly what we wanted and explained what we could and could not expect, given the specifics of the corner location next the garage door entering the washroom/pantry.  Not only did he deliver exactly as promised, on time and on budget, but completely exceeded our expectations and we are so happy and impressed with the work and finished product.  No more looking around for help with projects we need help with or that exceed our ability and skill level, our first call every time will be to Gilgen Handyman and Construction!!

Amazing service! Called Mike from out of town for a property in Fresno. I was not expecting him to start the work the day that I called since I've called others and they were quoting me 2 weeks out. His rate is reasonable and cheaper than the others that I've called. I appreciate his communication from his estimated time of arrival to giving me option on the equipment that needed to be purchase. He worked on the fan in the restroom. After purchasing the equipment, he sent me picture of the receipt. He went on to finish the work and realized that the purchased equipment was not needed, saving me some money. Not many people will do this, since I wasn't physically present to see the work being done. He was so kind to return the equipment and only charged me for his service. I will be using his service again in the future. He's definitely the go-to handyman!

Richard responded quickly and offered to come out the following day to fix 2 outdoor lighting fixtures. He showed up early and worked for 2 hours tracing old wires to make sure he found the problem. He had another appointment, but came back and finished in the dark. Richard kept me informed every step of the way and is the nicest guy you would ever meet.

Simply put: just not responsible or trustworthy.  He's trading on the fact that he's a Veteran - as am I - but he made two appointments with me and broke both - including one for which I told him I'd work from home for a whole day to accommodate his schedule.   It's important to me, as a Veteran, that those who trade on the fact they have served - do so responsibly and represent other Veterans well.  Not the case here... hoping he finds a way to become more professional, and only make commitments he can keep.

JR left a business card on my door. I really needed help with some gardening. I needed the lawn front and back mowed and some bushes and an olive tree taken out.i also wanted to see how much it would cost to put in sprinklers in just the front yard. He came over and gave me an estimate and started working. I signed a contract, and he did the work. I asked him for a copy of the contract and receipt of payment. He kept telling me he would bring it back and never did. He also told me he would be back the next day to finish up. There was some garden trash he was going to take away and to fix the sprinklers he put in. He has never cone back. I kept calling him and texting him. He finally called me back and said he had to have some surgery and would send me the copies of the contract and receipt of payment. It has been over 25 days, and I still have not received them.  It's very sad when someone in business takes advantage of the people he is doing work for. So now I am going to have to pay out more money to finish the job JR was contracted to do.

I'm not sure if this business is legit or not. The guy was incredibly unprofessional. We purchased some storage facilities that needed work, and he refused to answer the phone. I entertained a few text messages, but he wanted info, and didn't want to have a phone call or send his email address for details about the project. He kept asking if it was some random person and was sending winky faces (;)) like he's trying to catch an ex or something.
He then also mentioned something sarcastic about an investment company owning storage facilities, like that doesn't exist.
Long story short, it was a very strange conversation, and incredibly immature. I wouldn't recommend reaching out to this guy, and seeing the other reviews, it seems like they've had a bad experience with him as well.
