"Richardo and his crew were simply amazing - They were on time, their work was fast and efficient. During the job I asked them to take on a lot more work, which they did. Without their assistance the project would have never been completed on time. Richardo was responsive and his communication was top notch. He worked out many extra details without a hitch. I was super lucky to find his company, as I am from out of town and had no experience with DC. I was very impressed with him and his crew. I would hire them again for any project, In fact I wish I had him involved for the bulk of the project, as it would have been completed in a more timely fashion. I cannot say enough good things about them. Highly recommend!! I wish he lived in my area for future projects!"

"Really love working with Ricardo. Such a breath of fresh air compared to other contractors in the DC area. He is a complete professional from his estimate process to his clean up of the worksite. Everything he has done for me has been done to the highest quality. We really appreciate how they take care of our home just the way we do. You can tell the care and pride they take in their work by the way they take care of their tools. Ricardo and Cesar have repaired my deck, installed a new exterior door, repaired power outlets, repaired rotted door frames -- you can tell they can really handle any project and complete all of them to the same high standard. Thank you for all your hard work! Please keep up the great work as you continue to help me with my projects!"

"Can't recommend Handyman Services enough! We first called Ricardo when the smoke detectors in our home were randomly going off every evening. He was able to come out the next morning and fix the issue quickly. A few weeks later, Ricardo and Cesar came out to do HVAC maintenance on our house - they did a great job, and now we're planning on having them take care of a few other projects around our house that we've been meaning to get to for a while. Super professional, very informative, and incredibly helpful. We've been looking for a good handyman in DC for years, and finally found them!"

"My experience with Ricardo was absolutely wonderful. He was very responsive and professional - sending a same-day complete and detailed estimate even past midnight - gave us exact time slots, kept us on the loop of any changes, accommodated to our tight timeframe and finished the job at the said budget. Ricardo and Cesar had to fill a patch of our drywall ceiling and paint over it. They were meticulous in their work, mindful of our floor and furniture on a rainy day, and their finished product was near-perfect. We understood going in that partially painting the ceiling would leave it noticeable, but they managed to make the end-product look seamless. Luckily they had paint that matched very closely to ours, but it also helped that they didn’t give up until they found the right one. They offered that we follow up with them the next day when the paint dried, and covered up another stain that we hadn’t even noticed before. Plus they’re fun to talk to. We’ll definitely keep them in mind for our next project and would recommend them to others!"

"We own an apartment in a 1920s coop. This is Ricardo’s second project for us. First, in 2012, he refinished the floors. This time we asked him to fully renovate the kitchen—a complete gut job that, among other things, included knocking down a non-load bearing wall separating the kitchen and living room. We were thrilled that he accepted the project. Before he started the work, Ricardo met with us in person a couple of times. He asked tons of questions, listened attentively, and fully understood our vision—to fully modernize the space (plumbing, electric, new cabinets, etc.) while retaining as much 1920s character as possible. Ricardo takes great pride in his work, and throughout the project, he went above and beyond to help us execute our vision, and then some. He carefully removed, restored, and reinstalled the original baseboards; he found perfect 1920s-era cabinet hardware at a home improvement store store late one night; and he and he and Rosanna provided countless recommendations—on light fixtures, subway tiles, floor tiles, etc.—to retain as much character as possible Ricardo continuously explained the progress to date, the next steps, and the overall roadmap. Ricardo, Rosanna, and the entire crew left our house clean and tidy each night. They are genuinely kind, trustworthy, down-to-earth people—the kind of people you want in your house and the kind of people you want to be friends with—and were also really good with our dog and cat, both of whom were home during the project The before and after photos are almost unbelievable. It’s been several months, and we’re still blown away by the final product. Ricardo and his crew did an amazing job, right down to the tiniest details. We keep saying our new kitchen should be featured in a magazine, or something. We have recommended Ricardo to colleagues and other neighbors. And we can’t wait to ask Ricardo and his crew to do our bathroom, hopefully next year."
