Brian from Hughes Handyman Services did a fantastic job remounting my undercounter sink after the old adhesive gave out. He was quick to respond, gave a fair quote, and completed the work cleanly and professionally. I'm very happy with the result and highly recommend their services!

My husband and I recently decided to D.I.Y our laundry room. Once we ran into our third issue we were recommended to Hughs handyman services. Brian promptly came out and quoted us a reasonable price and was able to get started on the tile in our laundry room. Our laundry room was done in a day and half. He was professional, knowledgeable and efficient. If you're ever in need of a reliable handyman Hughs Handyman service is the place to call!!!

I called Brian to come and take a look at a small staircase that was in desperate need of some repairs. He ended up fixing the staircase for me the very same day. He did excellent work and charged me a reasonable price. I will definitely be calling him for my next project.

Had Brian come out and do ceiling repair, install a fan, fix a door frame, install a new toilet and then gut and retile a shower. Brian does amazing work! He is responsive, on time, reliable and very reasonable. I will definitely be reaching out again for my next home projects!

Had Brian come out to do some flooring tile work, refurbish a set of interior stairs, and a full walk in shower job. I am so happy with the outcome, that I will definitely be using him again for a few other projects I have coming up.
Brian was punctual, professional, and very knowledgeable. His rates are very reasonable and the work is top notch. His attention to the details really makes him stand out compared to other contractors I have dealt with in the past.
I would highly recommend HHS for any and all of your home improvement needs, no matter how big or small!
