What sets us apart is offering a single point of contact for all home and small business needs. You speak to a live person, who schedules the job, often within a couple of days, at a precise time and day, minimizing any wait times. Our craftsmen call you the night before and on the day of the job to keep you informed before, during, and after completion. All the work we do carries a 1-year warranty on our services and materials. We are a time-and-materials organization, with $140 per man hour for everything we do and a $70 trip charge for every job. We have a 2-hour minimum job requirement, and our rates remain consistent for all projects.
Our craftsmen accomplish many tasks quickly, so bundling projects is an efficient way to get things done. We bill in 15-minute increments for jobs that exceed two hours, thereby minimizing costs. Our rates are transparent, and we guarantee our work, unlike other contractors who charge less per hour but lack insurance or background checks.

After being let down by a number of independent contractors who failed to show up or provide a quote, I turned to Ace Handyman Services. I found Kathy to be extremely helpful and thorough, taking the time to discuss all of my projects over the phone to gauge how long they would take. She explained the workings of their business to me, highlighting the fact that their craftsmen are employees rather than independent contractors. Thanks to her assistance, I was able to secure a quick and convenient appointment. Dylan, one of their craftsmen, was prompt, communicative, and flexible, which made for a very positive experience. Although the cost of Ace was higher than that of other contractors who had quoted me previously, I was willing to pay more due to their professionalism and competence.

To receive a quote for replacing my deck boards and hand rails, I contacted Dan and his team. Dan promptly arrived and provided me with a quote, keeping me informed and available to answer any queries. On the day of work, the team was punctual, and Dan briefed me on the task's scope. The outcome was outstanding! Although the completion took slightly longer than expected, it was partially my fault. I have enclosed photos of the previous and current appearances. These professionals are truly exceptional! I would strongly suggest them to anyone!

We received great service from ACE handyman services as they replaced two front railings for us. Dan charged us a travel fee to take measurements, and we had some concerns because of the limited space on our petite porch. However, he suggested ways to make the current setup safer, and also assisted us in ordering the necessary items online, which were delivered to our doorstep in good time. Bud then came over and installed the railings within two days. We were extremely pleased with the level of responsiveness, patience and kindness accorded to us by everyone. Moreover, Bud's work was of exceptional quality, which is evident in the before and after photos provided. We would definitely use their services again.
