Barbara Roeder on R&R Handyman and Painting

After reading the R&R Handyman Services and Painting website's listing of the diverse jobs that the owner, Josh,  does/the skills he has plus the good reviews of his work by his previous customers, I contacted Josh. From our initial meeting to discuss my project of replacing a window to the completion of my project, I can say that Josh was an excellent communicator throughout this project. He is also punctual, reliable, an experienced professional with a positive work ethic, detail-oriented and delivered quality work. I highly recommend Josh. Thank you, Josh!

Daniel Gordon on R&R Handyman and Painting

We had Josh with R&R Handyman and Painting in to do some drywall repairs and replace an egress window. Great experience! He was very thorough collecting information and providing a quote. He informed us of potential unknowns that may change the scope of work. He provided multiple options for the window with price, quality and lead time details. His estimated material arrival and scheduling to do the work was as accurate as it could be. The window was a few days later getting in but he was still here a few days later to do the work. The work was completed in 2 days as planned with exceptional quality. The window looks great and the drywall is very nice. He matched the texture with great quality. His communication throughout the whole process was great and reassuring.

My daughter and I couldn't be more pleased with the wonderful work that Josh has done. He's kind courteous and an early bird that's right on time every time. The cost of his service is reasonable, and if there's anything such as painting that needs a touch up he's happy to come back and do just that. We highly recommend his services.

Josh was great to work with! He did some trim work and replaced some flooring for me. Communication was great from start to finish. He was able to start the project in a timely manner and finished earlier than estimated, but still with amazing quality. He was knowledgeable, thorough and showed great attention to detail. I called him in to fix an ugly DIY and it now looks better than i could have ever imagined. I would recommend Josh to anyone needing work done and I will definitely be calling him again if I find other projects!

We recently hired Josh for a drywall project in our garage. His work met our expectations! This was the 2nd job we’ve enlisted from Josh and knew he would not disappoint. Josh is reliable and is talented in so many lines of work. We’d highly recommend him for your project needs!
