    I recently hired The Great Handyman, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! He was incredibly quick to respond, friendly, and had a genuinely professional attitude. Not only did he get the job done faster than I expected, but his rates were also very affordable, which was a huge plus.If youre looking for someone who gets the job done right without breaking the bank, I highly recommend The Great Handyman. I’ll definitely be calling him again for future projects!

He was prompt, efficient, and took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring I was well-informed and comfortable with the work being done. I will be definitely working with him again.

    I would like to thank Brian, The Great Handy Man for taking care of our ceiling repair in our garage. From the first call, Brian was extremely responsive, and was able to take care of us within a few days. I would highly reccomend the services without second thought, great craftsmanship and extremely reliable.

  • Review 4 (2024-10-17 - Rating: 5)

    We have worked with Brian at The Great Handyman on several jobs now. His work is extremely thorough, especially his work with drywall. Each time, there was no evidence of any work being done and it looked like a new wall. I would recommend The Great Handyman to anyone that doesnt want to worry about the product that theyre going to get.

  • Review 5 (2024-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    Just wanted to give a great big THANK YOU to Brian for repairing some drywall in multiple areas of our house. After he was finished and I repainted the walls, you cant tell that they were ever damaged. Brian is very courteous, responsive and showed up exactly when he said he would, even working around our schedule and still completing the work in a timely fashion. Highly recommend The Great Handyman!

  • Review 6 (2024-12-24 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 11 (2024-07-08 - Rating: 5)

    I was looking for some quotes for a couple of handyman projects I jad going on at my house. Brian asked a couple of questions, wanted some pictures. Sent that over and Brian got back to me very quickly with a reasonable quote. He was timely and did excellent work. If I have any other handyman jobs, Brian will be the first one I call.

  • Review 12 (2024-05-20 - Rating: 5)

    We have found our Handyman for life! Brian responded right away to help us with an emergency situation. He was at our house within 30 minutes of our call late afternoon on a Friday. He fixed our problem, was professional, proficient, thorough, and just went above and beyond in making sure our situation was resolved. He is skilled in many areas, so we have started our list of next projects. I highly recommend calling Brian - The Great Handyman for your home repair needs, if you are in the greater Jacksonville/St Augustine area!

  • Review 13 (2024-09-22 - Rating: 5)

    We had a wide variety of tasks for our new home and Brian did a fantastic job - lighting, fans, blinds, etc. Courteous, friendly and well prepared for any task.

  • Review 14 (2024-05-20 - Rating: 5)

    After calling 9 different people for urgent help, Brian came out ASAP to assist. His work and personality are top notch. Its really hard to find a great handyman in the area and I was torn telling the area my new secret, and in fact I never leave reviews, but he definitely earned my review. Very few people clearly stand out in their work and care and Brian is top on that list for me!

  • Review 15 (2023-02-17 - Rating: 5)

    I hired Brian to add an attic access in my garage as my builder had not done this. I found Brians pricing to be very reasonable given the effort that it would take to cut the attic access and then install some attic flooring. Brian showed up promptly each day, took great care to protect the area he was working in, and cleaned up each day before leaving. I have to say, Brian is one of the cleanest, most considerate contractors I have ever worked with. Overall, I was extremely impressed with Brians work, he completed the project on time and exactly as quoted. I would highly recommend Brian for any project and will be using him again in the future.

  • Review 16 (2024-02-16 - Rating: 5)

    Brian was an excellent choice in getting our new home ready to move in. No job was too big or small. His attention to detail made all the work he did beyond expectations. Look forward to having him back to our house for anything we do in the future. Highly recommended Brian

  • Review 17 (2023-10-19 - Rating: 5)

    Brian hung a TV for me outside on my patio and was fantastic. He went to far as to include wood filler to make rear hardy board surface flush and even purchased larger lag bolts from Home Depot since the ones that came with the mount kit seemed a little small. Overall great service and fast and reasonably priced. He went above and beyond! Would use him again for sure.

  • Review 18 (2024-05-01 - Rating: 5)

    Brian cut a hole through a wall in the garage and installed a portable A/C. The service was great that was fit in within the same week (couple of days). Happy with the quality of work.

  • Review 26 (2024-12-09 - Rating: 5)

    I had The Great Handyman come out to my commercial location, and they did an awesome job. The team was super friendly and got everything done quickly and efficiently. They tackled all sorts of tasks, from small fixes to bigger projects, and everything turned out great. If you need reliable and skilled handymen, I definitely recommend giving them a call. They really know their stuff and make sure you’re happy with the results.

  • Review 27 (2022-01-25 - Rating: 5)

    Brian throughout his time of our service kept constant communication with us. Brian was knowledgeable and respectful of our decisions while guiding us on the best solutions to fit our needs. Brian is meticulous, constantly thinking steps ahead to avoid mistakes. He is respectful, quiet, keeps a clean working space, and very responsive. We love our remodeled kitchen island, new backsplash and our under mount lighting. Next up is remodeling our pantry from wire racks to wood shelving. I’m so exited my husband found Brian. We really appreciate him and his attention to detail.

  • Review 28 (2019-11-14 - Rating: 5)

    If you need work done around your house you should hire Brian. He does great work and is very detailed. He is also reasonably priced and provided a detailed estimate before starting the work. His estimates are straightforward and easy to understand.He repaired walls, missing tiles and a broken closet. Each job exceeded our expectations and were completed within the time he told us the project would take. He checked in and provided updates on his progress and took the time to explain what he was doing every step of the way.We also had issues with our dryer vent which he was able to resolve. He is professional and works within your time frame. Big or small projects, Brian is the handyman for the job.

    So thankful for Brian and his great work! We had a bear of a front door problem, the wood was so swollen it would no longer open. We were told by others just replace it, which would have been a fortune, has an oval with beveled glass. Brian was up for the challenge and he was able to fix the problem and save the beautiful door! Very grateful! Brian is very good at what he does, very conscientious and cares about doing a great job and always makes sure his customers are happy. Highly recommend The Great Handyman Brian for all your various jobs! Great communicator and very responsive as well.

  • Review 32 (2020-03-26 - Rating: 5)

    The Great Handyman (Brian) does great work. He constructed two outdoor stair railings for us and did some smaller repair work around our property. He can successfully problem solve around challenges. In constructing our one railing, Brian came upon a slab of concrete buried underneath the soil that impacted his ability to install the posts. He rented a jackhammer to fix the problem without making a big deal of the event. His carpentry work is beautiful and shows a great attention to detail. He also fixed our 100 year old wooden storm door that now opens and closes seamlessly. Brian also fixed our dryer vent and our laminate flooring that had shifted. He is a jack of all trades, but in this case shows excellence in all his trades. Upon departure, he left everything clean and neat. He is pleasant and professional in all interactions.

  • Review 33 (2018-05-14 - Rating: 5)

    I am perhaps the least handy person on the planet, and as a homeowner for nearly 30 years, I have been in search of a truly great handyman. Until contacting Brian and having him do work at our home, that search had been fruitless. I could not be happier with the work (a variety of projects both inside and outside) that Brian has done. Ive also been very happy and impressed with how responsive and accommodating he is, and with how reasonable his pricing is. I will be a customer for this truly Great Handyman for as long as he is offering his services, and would recommend him without hesitation to family and friends.

  • Review 34 (2023-05-26 - Rating: 5)

    Brian did an excellent job at fixing our dry wall repair. Looks brand new. He was very professional. We will be definitely be using this company for future service.

  • Review 35 (2021-05-07 - Rating: 5)

    I cant say enough good things about Brians work. We had ceiling drywall work done and you cant even tell it was ever damaged; the ceiling even had to be blended with the existing swirl pattern and Brian made it look seamless. His work is very attentive to details and the space was cleaner when he left it than before he started! He even went as far as to take our garbage to the curb when he filled it and back again the next day. Total professional and clearly takes pride in his work. Give this man your business without a second thought, you wont regret it!

  • Review 36 (2020-04-19 - Rating: 5)

    This was my first encounter with Brian. He installed my kitchen cabinets and the quality of his craftsmanship was so amazing and refreshing. I appreciated how humble, kind and respectful Brian was that I will have him come back to do more work on my condo. I will recommend Brian “the great handyman” to my friends and family for any job!

  • Review 37 (2023-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    With the recent high winds and rain, a piece of siding fell off the side of my house. I was extremely concerned about the exposed wood and since my house is a colonial, I could not safely or easily secure it myself. The Great handyman was a referral to me from a siding company and once I reached out, Brian responded and provided me the immediate relief I needed by saying he can help me. He came same day (within hours from my initial call) and took care of the displaced siding in an hours time. Hes courteous and attentive and very professional. Hes reasonably priced. I appreciate his help! I will absolutely refer him to anyone I know in need of handyman services and I would use him again.

    Brian removed and replaced 450 sf deck made of 2x6. He works in an extremely meticulous manner. There was almost no mess from the demo. He took the time to make the resulting seams look better than before and to make sure every hole was pre drilled and done right. Looks great!

  • Review 58 (2016-03-30 - Rating: 5)

    During some rough housing a some boys fell against my wall leaving it dented and cracked. I contacted the great handy man hoping he could make the crack/hole less noticeable. I never imaged that the end product could look so good. I dare anyone to find the spot that was repaired. I dont know how he ever matched the color so perfectly and made the wall so perfectly smooth. But he did. And to top it off, he came when he said he would, worked efficiently and left the area spotless. Now thats my definition of a Great Handyman. If I need another job done, I know who Im going to call.

The hole in the ceiling was irregular shapped, and next to speakers in the ceiling. He was very professional, and when the job was done, you could not tell at all where the damage occured!
