I had an issue with my pocket door and Happy Family Handyman was the first company available to help me.
Elijah was very professional, respectful of my home, and worked efficiently. Elijah came prepared with booties as my house is a shoe-free home.
In order to have better access to the pocket door, he had to remove the panels on the door frame. He carefully removed the panels without damaging any of the fragile wooden strips. He carefully diagnosed the issue and informed me of the issue. He warned me when he's using percussive equipment because he saw that I was on my laptop. The space for the pocket door is extremely tight and Elijah carefully hung the door back on the rail after fixing the main issue.
After Elijah completed the repair, he was very careful with his equipment to not damage my flooring. He used a shop vac to vacuum the paint that came off from removing the door panels.
I was so impressed that after he finished, my pocket door was fixed and it didn't looks like any contractor was there.
As someone who had a really bad experience with multiple subs for my home improvement projects, I was extremely appreciative that Elijah didn't break our damage anything during the repair process. Most importantly, he cleaned up after he was done.
Thank you, Elijah!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Found these guys through Yelp's service request. I must say they have the best response time and are very patient with tasks. I would give them 3.5 stars but bumped up to 4 due to their customer service/friendliness.
I needed help installing the floor to ceiling vidka tracks from IKEA along with a floating shelf. The price seemed pretty fair but also a but pricey for what the job is. Can't complain much as they saved me a ton of time and installed it professionally. I'm sure I would have messed it up and something would have fallen off later. Only issue I have is that the tracks they installed aren't really aligned so my curtains get stuck constantly. Its a small misalignment so it's not major, but can be pretty annoying. Luckily I dont adjust the curtains that often.
I do have more handy-work needed around the house that I had quoted from them that I would consider later in the future as it was pricier than these smaller tasks.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1Business owner information

Thank you immensely for taking the time to share your experience with my handyman services. Your feedback is invaluable, and I am grateful for the opportunity to discuss any aspects of our service.
I understand your concerns regarding the installation of the VIDKA tracks from IKEA. It's important to note that many IKEA products, including the VIDKA tracks, are designed with European building standards in mind. Specifically, they anticipate a perfectly level ceiling, commonly found in European constructions, which often consist of concrete panels. This design ensures a seamless fit between sections. However, in the U.S., residential construction typically utilizes plaster or drywall, necessitating evening and straightening through mudding. This process rarely achieves a perfectly even surface, leading to the popularity of textured walls — not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their ability to conceal imperfections. As a result, a perfectly level installation of VIDKA sections is impossible with this kind of ceiling. Rest assured, the installation was conducted meticulously, adhering to the provided instructions.
Regarding your rating, as the owner and operator of Happy Family Handyman Service, I am deeply committed to delivering exceptional service. Your initial rating of 3.5 stars, though generously rounded up, prompts me to seek a deeper understanding of any aspect of my service that did not fully meet your expectations. My goal is not just to meet but to exceed the standards of my clients.
I would like to highlight that I responded to your project request with utmost promptness, ensured punctuality at the job site, maintained cleanliness by wearing shoe covers, and adhered to the quoted price without any hidden costs. If there was any aspect of my service that fell short of a five-star experience, your insight would be greatly appreciated. It is through feedback like yours that I can continue to refine the services and ensure my clients' complete satisfaction.
Looking forward to hearing from you, and always ready to help you with the future home improvement projects! - Geri M.West Covina, CA21176Apr 27, 2024
Klim replaced an upstairs toilet for me. I worried about this project for a long time since I have family visiting next week. I am so pleased with the result. Initial response time was great. Scheduling and communicating through Yelp was very easy. I bought the replacement online at Lowe's, and he picked it up there for an added fee. I was super impressed by the skilled, professional installation. Definitely recommend.

I couldn't be more pleased with the handyman (ELIJAH) help installed pocket doors. A solid 5-star job! Professional, efficient, and the attention to detail was impressive. The pocket door works flawlessly, and the entire process was smooth. Highly recommend for their excellent service.

Recently hired this handyman to replace a leaky pipe under our bathroom sink, and I couldn't be more pleased! Not only did he fix the main issue promptly, but he also took the time to help with an unrelated matter at no extra charge. Exceptional service, professional demeanor, and top-notch craftsmanship. Highly recommend for anyone in need of a trustworthy and outstanding handyman!" Will plan to use him in the future.

Not licensed! They charged me well over the maximum $500 allowed for parts and labor. I, not being a handyman, did not know this is a law. They, unlicensed handymen, know this law. I repeatedly asked what the dollar limit is that an unlicensed handyman can charge, and he (who actually was part of the "if") continuously deflected my question. I did not know the law. They know they were in violation.

I had a few doors in my house that wasn't latching properly. Elijah came at the agreed upon time and fixed all the doors so they would latch. Will definitely call again for future repairs.
