They write about whether the price held, whether anyone showed up, and whether they would hire us again. Here is what our five star reviews praise most, most common first. ### 1. They Would Call Us Again In about one in four five star reviews. A good handyman is one you keep. Six in ten of our customers come back to us for their next project. > "Great experience with The Handyman Company. Elton did an excellent job and was professional, responsive, and efficient. My tenants said everything looks great. I’d definitely recommend Elton and use them again!" (DeArron Anderson, Tampa office, 2026-08-30, Google review) ### 2. The Price Held In about one in five five star reviews. The price is in writing before any work starts, and the quote you approve is the bill you get. That is why the estimate comes up so often in the reviews. It matched. > "We had a good experience with the representative that came to our home to install a shelf in our bathroom. The shelf was mounted to a newly installed tile covered wall. The work was done quickly and professionally, and at a reasonable cost."

Would recommend using this contractor." (Tim Wight, October 25, 2026, Google review) > "I have used Handyman many times. Most recently I had them paint a bedroom for me. One day only, moved furniture, patched a few holes and did a great job! As in the past projects I was very pleased. That is why I go back to Handyman every time." (rebecca fitzgerald, October 18, 2026, Google review) > "Big thanks to our handyman Dick Calvo, who did great work on a very short turnaround, replacing a mildewing bathroom cabinet. Great work, very nice job cleaning up after; we’ll definitely call again!" (Kristin Laemmert, October 14, 2026, Google review) > "I highly recommend this company. They came out and repaired some broken tiles in our shower. The tech even repaired a shotty repair job that our management company’s repair man did. What really threw it over the top for me was after he was done, he cleaned up after himself. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had a repair person in my house and they’ve left a mess behind. But not this guy. He intentionally went behind his mess and left it looking nice. The repair was perfect. You can’t even tell there was ever anything wrong. I will definitely be using them again. I am one satisfied customer." (Sarah Sturdivant, October 12, 2026, Google review) > "I hired The Handyman Company to install crown moulding through my whole house. German and Luis were the installers. They both demonstrated superb craftsmanship. Their attention to detail was exceptional. They both listened to details of how I wanted the work completed and followed through perfectly. This included painting, cutting, installing and caulking the crown moulding. They also cleaned up the areas very nicely. I will definitely hire them again when I need other home projects completed."

After 2 months of waiting, Tom from the Handyman Company showed up and provided a fair estimate that was well under what the other company estimated because Tom explained that the issue was not what the other contractor claimed. Tom was here for the job the same week. Very satisfied with the work and he explained the “why, how, and cause of the issue”. Integrity and transparency along with personable nature sets this company above others I have worked with." (Dennis Quinn, March 26, 2026, Google review) > "Recently, Tom did some more odds jobs around my house, including putting up some lattice by my front porch, repairing some areas on the house damaged by plants, repairing outdoor lights, and painting my laundry room floor. As before, he was excellent. He was punctual, thorough, and very efficient. I highly recommend him. I hired the Handyman Company to assist me with several odd jobs, including the installation of a mailbox. Tom was excellent. He was reliable, capable, hardworking, efficient, and also very personable. I highly recommend Tom and the company." (Laura Corriss, September 2, 2025, Google review) > "Tom Robinson was our handyman. Tom was so friendly and easy to work with - he did an excellent job hanging our drapes, hanging ceiling fans, and hanging closet shelving, and he did it all with a smile and very positive attitude. We will definitely call again for work from Tom! Thank you!" (Angela Hammond, March 17, 2025, Google review) > "Fast and reliable. We were not even charged for the quick visit. We will call them again for service , we appreciate your prompt response !" (Neil Porras, September 11, 2024, Google review) > "Tom was great!

Grateful for the pleasant and helpful interaction with other members; ***** ******** and *****." (Dennis C, September 24, 2026, BBB review) ## The Craftsmen Customers Ask for by Name We do the work ourselves. The craftsman at your door comes from the local office, not a stranger sent by a lead site. A handyman company is only as good as the person it sends, and the reviews say so by name. Customers remember who came, and many ask for the same craftsman next time. > "Phil did an incredible job. He was very professional, knowledgeable and experienced at his work." (Steven K Sutton about Phil, Sarasota office, 2026-08-30, Google review) > "Miguel went above and beyond for us. We had a laundry list of repairs for him, a huge one being replacing all of the rotted wood on our carport." (Lauren Vanderveer about Miguel, Orlando office, 2026-09-09, Google review) > "Victor provided excellent service. He was very informative throughout the entire process of installing our new media wall." (Candice Kronable about Victor, Jacksonville office, 2025-10-09, Google review) > "We had Scott come to our house to do a variety of unrelated projects. My wife and I could not be happier with the work he did and more importantly how professional and on top of it he was." (Mclain Lavis about Scott, Jacksonville office, 2024-10-23, Google review) > "A+ The Handyman Company sent Larry out to fix my drywall and the experience was fabulous! He was able to do the repairs immediately and for a reasonable price." (Erin Carrigan about Larry, Melbourne office, 2024-05-03, Google review) > "Evan and his team worked wonders replacing our door and windows." (Rachel & Nathan Bond about Evan, Tampa office, 2024-06-20, Google review) ## Where Our Handyman Reviews Come From After a job, the office sends the customer one short email. It holds a button to that office's Google profile and a private way to tell us if something went wrong. Nobody is screened first. A happy customer and an unhappy one get the same email and the same link. That is why each office shows its full Google rating, low stars included. Only the five star reviews are quoted in full, and every review, good or bad, stays on Google where anyone can read it. ## What Happens When a Job Is Not Right Even a good handyman company has a bad day. What matters is what happens next. Call your office and a person answers. If you leave a message, we call back within one business day. Every job carries a one year workmanship warranty. If something we did is not right, we come back and make it right. > "On time, clean and polite. I was not 100% satisfied with the work, but the company made it right immediately." (Anne Graffy, 2019-09-10, Google review) > "The work was good and completed on time so final review they took care of my issues" (Speros M, 2025-06-02, BBB review) ## How to Find a Good, Honest Handyman in the Reviews Stars alone do not tell you much. The red flags in any handyman's reviews are missed appointments, slow callbacks, and a bill that grew. Read for those in anyone's reviews, ours included. - **Read the low stars.** Every company has a few. Read what went wrong and whether the company made it right. An honest handyman fixes the problem, not the review. - **Look for the price.** The best reviews say the bill matched the quote. We put the price in writing before any work starts, so there is nothing to argue about when it is time to pay. [Handyman cost in Florida](https://the-handyman-company.com/handyman-cost-florida) comes down to the job, not the hour. - **Get more than one estimate.** Comparing two or three written estimates is smart. Ours is free, so it costs nothing to include us, and several small repairs can go on one visit. - **Ask who shows up.** A licensed and insured handyman company sends its own people. Licensed and insured means the company holds a state license and carries insurance in case something goes wrong on the job. Ours are our own craftsmen from the local office, and the company is licensed, insured, and bonded. - **Check the license.** Florida law limits [the work a handyman may take on](https://the-handyman-company.com/handyman-license-requirements) without a contractor license. Ask for the license number and proof of insurance before you hire. Bigger jobs need a licensed contractor, and we are one: state certified licenses CRC1336072 and CBC1258366. - **Ask what they will not do.** A reliable handyman tells you when a job needs a licensed plumber or electrician. Minor plumbing, like a fixture swapped in place, is handyman work. So is a light fixture replaced like for like. New plumbing lines and electrical work inside the walls are not, and we will say so. - **Check the BBB.** The Better Business Bureau grades how a company answers complaints. We hold an A+, and one profile covers every office. - **Look at the dates.** A dependable handyman keeps earning reviews year after year. Ours span more than a decade, and new ones still come in from all six offices. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Who is the best-reviewed handyman company in Florida? Start with facts you can check.
