Ceiling Repair

We needed to have repairs done to two places on our ceilings where there had been water damage. We contacted John because he had done a number of jobs in our house last year, and we had been very pleased with the results. Again, this time, we were happy with the work John did. He is reliable; shows up when he says he will; is meticulous in his work; and cleans up everything afterwards. A bonus is that its a pleasure to have him working in the house. Hes very personable and has a terrific sense of humor. We would certainly call him again.

Drywall repair

John did a large drywall repair job after a plumber opened our wall to fix a leak in the stack. He spent the full day working on this and we are very happy with the result. Thank you John!

Condo painting

We hired John to repaint a rental condo in between tenancies. He did a phenomenal job at a very competitive price. John was super responsive from the first contact on Homestars and throughout the project. In addition to painting the walls, John proactively fixed some small holes and scratch marks on a couple of doors in the unit, surpassing our expectations. He finished the job on time and left the unit in a pristine condition. It was a pleasure to do business with John, we'll hire him again without hesitation.

Garage renovation.

I had a garage which was non-functional unplanned, damaged). Luckily I was referred to John by my good friend and neighbour. John, an amiable person and efficient handy guy, not only fixed the issues efficiently but made the rundown garage into a pretty descent one!

Paint and drywall work

John was very responsive to my messages prior to and leading up to completing our job. A breath of fresh air in comparison to other contractors we've sourced in past. Reliability is not always something you can count on in this industry, but super important. This is ultimately why we decided to proceed with John's services. He did a great job with the work itself, finishing quickly. My kids enjoyed having him here as part of our household for the few days of work - he was very friendly and kind to them. Would use John's services at Pretty Handy Guy again and will recommend to others!

Basement paint and repair

John did a great job fixing the paint in my basement, including a portion of the ceiling which is more difficult to reach. He also provided and installed a nice looking removable cover for an unused dryer vent.

This is the second time I've called John and I would definitely recommend him.
