Knowledgeable, punctual.... And reasonable. I can't hit nail to save my life, so, the next project on the honey do list, I'll be reaching out again. Thanks for the great work...

Blue-Collar Handymen: Good for cancelations, reschedules and no-shows. They never even made it out. I texted and call the business with no response. Thanks River! Good job guys! Unprofessional. Unreliable. Very disappointed! 0 stars.

River was super responsive and helped us disassemble a washer to remove it from our apartment closet. Hope to work with him again in the future!

No, you never did work for me because after your employee gave me his estimate I went with another plumber. Your employee charged me $1900 for a job that was done for 200.

We never did any work for you I believe you have the wrong business.
Apr 12, 2024Previous reviewHe overcharged to the point that the plumber that finally did the job when I told him the price he quoted me he said he should wear a mask the way he's robbing people

River was able to come out quickly and take care of our plumbing issue. He was great, knowledgeable, and efficient. Will definitely call for any further work we come across.

Thank you Penny! We appreciate your kind review! Let us know if you still need help with that bathroom sink drain! Hope you’re doing well!

Punctual, easy to communicate with, fast, fair pricing, and HONEST. Don't get a lot of people that will give it to you straight. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Fixed my couch that had been broken for months and did so efficiently and made sure the job was done right. I would hire again in a heartbeat for anything that goes wrong in my home!

These guys are great. Rivers was really knowledgeable and professional. Affordable and high quality work. His team remodeled my kitchen and two bathrooms, and gave us plenty of great advice on their design.

Do not hire! RIP off! It wouldn't allow me to post, unless I gave it one star, but this handyman gets zero stars from me!
Contacted the company to install TV on the wall, paint bedroom and closet door and sand wall. River, informed me that they wanted to get paid per day, as some clients didn't pay. They started the work on 5/26-2020. I paid him for the one day labor as well as to hide the wires on the wall. Mind you, he never kept his promised time of arrival. Every day there was an excuse. On 5/27-2020, I paid him for his one day labor, and again, he was late. Today, 5/28-2020, he hasn't arrived. I called him (no answer) and I texted him (no answer). I explained to him before he started the job that it need to be completed by today (5/28-2020). Please do not hire him. I am out of over $800! I will be reporting him to the BBB as well as the Chicago Police Department and he will definitely see me in court!
Update (5/28-2020) River finally texted me back, stating that his guy should be there soon. He had some sort of family emergency and I told him he needs to go and try to finish up today! Disappointed in his professionalism and overall work! Tchauncy finally arrived at 12:13 pm. The job is still not complete. He informed me that he wouldn't be able to work on 5/29-2020
Update (5/29-2020) I texted River pics of our bedroom (see attached) and he never replied. Keep in mind River wanted to get paid every day. As of today, I've paid him a total of $811.14.
Update (5/30-2020) Tchauncy arrived at 10 am and worked until 12:30 pm. He informed me that he had to leave to go to another job, as River was In Michigan. I informed him that my carpet installer received a cancellation and would be installing my carpet on Monday, as this job has exceeded its timeline. The job was to take 3 days, now it's almost a week, which is an inconvenience, and the paint job their doing is extremely poor! Tchauncy stated that he was going to a job on 79th and will try to swing back by, otherwise, he'll come tomorrow.
At this point, I am requesting 50% of what I've paid to be returned. I will never hire them again nor refer them. They should simply be out of business.
Update (5/30-2020) Tchauncy texted me at 6:40 pm to inform me that his other job ran a little late, but he has all day open tomorrow to start at whatever time best for you. I replied back, 9 am. I'll add another update tomorrow.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Business owner information

I’m sorry to hear that. Job was completed even after customer added on quite a bit of extra work that she refused to pay for. This was also 4 years ago. We have moved on hope you can too. Thank you.
