    Really excellent service and workmanship, great family business. Drew Anderson came out quickly to quote a job involving running new electrical circuits, cabinetry rework and a range install. Drew was very transparent about pricing and answered all my questions as to how he would do the job. His time estimate for the work was also spot on. Drew and his father (who is a master electrician) came on a Sunday and were in and out in 3 and a half hours, including a thorough cleaning the work area. Highly recommended!

    Everything was done in a timely manner, the work was quality, and Chris was very professional! We used him for lighting installation.

    Owner is extremely rude, un-professional and arrogant. Don't waste your time with this guy unless you want to be treated poorly. Make no mistake this is a shotty, second rate, fly by night business. Anyone who claims to be an expert in everything is not good at anything. Old saying- "Jack of all trades, master of none" absolutely applies here. Guy will cook you breakfast, groom your dog, repair your siding, fix your toilet, re-build the engine in your car, and probably do dental work and/or minor surgical procedures as well.

    Just ask him, there is nothing he cant do.....(It just wont be done well, or right)

    Chris replaced some window trim for us. When I reached out, his response was immediate. He showed up on time, and did fantastic work. We’ll be having him come back to do some other jobs for sure!

    Mr. Finnegan came over and handled a list of general issues I was hoping to have repaired. Some painting and light switches that didn't work. He replaced a window and did some siding! Very good experience and would use again.

    I called this company a week ago to fix a hole in my wall. They didn't answer so I left a message. I get a phone call back and set up an appointment for today which shouldn't of been hard to keep since I live a few houses away from the address posted on the web. Nobody showed up so there still a hole in my wall. Nobody even bothered to call me. This is beyond unprofessional and a waste of time. Don't even bother calling them. I am not a competitor. Just a real woman looking for genuine help and service and was completely disregarded and ignored. Maybe you gotta be a man to call and be taken seriously, I don't know but he is not a man of his word.

    The motor on our garbage disposal burned out on us recently. We sent Finnegan & Sons pictures of under our sink as well as the unit we were looking to purchase. They let us know it was compatible and they could install it as soon as it came in. They quoted us a price quickly and the installation was on the lower range. The installation was done quick and looks great.

    Chris did a fantastic job. I will definitely be hiring him again. His attention to detail was superb. He also made sure the job was finished before my wife came home. Highly recommend him.

    Chris did some great work for me in a number of areas - repainting my porch, fixing and re-sealing my foundation, and installing a new section of fence and building some custom gates. I highly recommend, and I plan to work with him again!

    Chris went above and beyond for an extermination project at my in-laws house. It did a great job, it was very flexible, and extremely thorough. I would highly recommend his work.

    I called Finnegan & Sons on the 4th of July expecting to leave a voice message, what a wonderful surprise it was when Chris answered my call, I knew at that moment this is the gentlemen I would want to fix two window blinds.
    He showed up as promised to give an estimate which was very reasonable and acceptable and the job was completed right on schedule, professionally, accurately, to my complete satisfaction.
    Thank you Chris with your pleasing personality, professional caring, honest attitude you can't go wrong, keep up the great work!
    Wishing you all the very best always,
    Lal

    I'm new to the area and don't know any handymen. I called Chris to assemble a dining room table that I purchased. He was very responsive, professional and fairly priced. He did a great job and I will definitely keep his business card in my "trusted" file for future needs. Thanks Chris!!!

    We contacted Chris to fix some loose tiles in a bathroom shower. He professionally provided us with recommendations for options to address the problem including a rationale for his proposed plan. We couldn’t be happier with the results and will be calling Chris for all our handyman needs!

    I needed someone in a pinch to install a new disposal for an elderly aunt. The situation was odd because we were dealing with her schedule, but I was the one doing the hiring. Chris was able to fit me in quickly, did a great job, and for a fair price. He was even sensitive to keeping servicing my aunt without involving her in the arrangements. Thanks Chris! Would definitely do business again.
