Best Sink Installation in Los Angeles CA
Tomas fixed the bar in my closet and now it holds all my clothing. He did a great job. He was nice, worked neatly and his pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend him and will use him again.

Danny is great. He is very thorough and knowledgeable. We first hired Danny to hang new IKEA cabinets as well as a microwave for our new kitchen renovation, but also had lots of other jobs to get the house lease ready. He wound up having to fix a lot of problems that we had from previous workers, and he did a great job making everything perfect. Besides the basic handy work, Danny has basic knowledge of electrical and plumbing, but was realistic about what he didn't know. Whenever there was something to do outside of his purview, he could recommend colleagues who were experts, such as a great electrician we used. Danny is very meticulous about details, and will make things perfect, and suggest things to do as if he were working his own house. I had limited time and budget, so couldn't address every issue we had for our renovation, and couldn't afford to make everything perfect, so Danny was also great with listening to my priorities and completing those things on time, and within budget.

Oleh did a fantastic job replacing old curtains and curtain rods. He was on time, polite and friendly, and got the job done efficiently. The curtain rods look great. I would totally recommend him.

Teo is a gem. He is honest, knowledgeable and cares about his customers (the exact opposite of a couple of other plumbers I have used in the past year, whom I found on Yelp) . He came to fix a clogged kitchen drain 2 weeks ago and cleared it. But we had an issue again last week and he came immediately and spent over an hour clearing the drain and fixed the problem and did not charge for the second visit. He really cared about fixing the problem and he explained everything he did. I will always use him for any plumbing or electrical issue I have. I am planning to use him in the next couple of weeks to do some painting/drywall and electrical work. I strongly recommend him and it is very rare to find a handyman like him.

Per my landlord's policy, I had to hire a licensed, bonded contractor to install an AC unit in my apartment window. A very simple task that does not traditionally require any professional help and shouldn't be time consuming or difficult for a mere mortal who can follow simple instructions, let alone a pro. Anyhow, since I like living in my apartment I complied.
After calling around Craigslist (...I know) I received a couple of decent quotes from a few companies ($150-$300) but then I called Rich of R&K Tradesmen. I described the job to him and he had big manly questions for me, things like: Can you pick up the unit all by yourself? and was in awe when I said that yes, I, a silly woman, was able to lift a unit weighing no more than 40 pounds. He then quoted me $400 for the job. I couldn't help but actually laugh - that is exorbitant, especially since I already knew his competitors' rates, and the AC unit only cost $250 to begin with! Rich then attempted to educate me, saying that he has a contractor's license and not just a driver's license (implying that I'm too dumb to know the difference) and that I'm probably being lied to by all of these other companies. I explained to him how simple it is to check a company's credentials using the Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors website and that I had checked his and every other company I was considering. It wasn't a heated conversation but his condescending tone didn't leave me feeling like a valued potential customer.
My boyfriend was also calling potential companies and he also called Rich. He described the same job and - believe it or not - was quoted only $200! (That's right. A $200 price difference for the exact same thing! Sketchy, no?!) As my boyfriend didn't know the interaction I had just had with Rich, he asked him to send company documents to our landlord for approval. He was one of two companies we had approved by management.
When my boyfriend and I connected the dots of our discussions, he recounted for me how Rich had also given him an attitude the whole time (I think his description was two-bit craigslist huckster?). Needless to say, we hired the other approved company to install our unit. (For $150, I might add)
Yesterday we received a rather hilarious voicemail from Rich threatening legal action for using his documents to hire another contractor. We have no idea where he got this idea, except that we didn't hire him, so perhaps he thinks that we must be using his documents to commit fraud?! Crazy.
Based on the other one-star review from Everywhere E, this guy appears to be very lawsuit-happy.
I didn't have Rich do any work, but if his contracting skills are anything like his interpersonal skills, I'd advise you to find someone else. AVOID!!

I do not normally write reviews. In the case of Handy Danny I have to leave one. Danny was reliable and prompt each day. From the initial estimate to the last day on the job. He completed a conversion of a void furnace enclosure into a now useful utility closet. Danny was able to give suggestions which I liked and incorporated it into the project. I was on site while he worked and he made sure I was happy with each detail as the project progressed. Danny finished the project in the estimated time and he worked around my adult children as they were coming and going. At the completion of the project he made sure I was totally satisfied with the project before final payment. He cleaned up the work area making sure all debris was gone. I cant be happier with the completed work. I already have discussed a second project with him which will possibly take place in a month or so. If you are in search of a reliable craftsman with keen attention to detail than Danny is your guy.
