Best Handyman Service I called Affordable Handyman Service at 5 pm and explained I did not have an emergency, just a simple repair. Obviously he was on a job when I called, but by 8:30 the SAME NIGHT my problem was fixed. You can't go wrong with Affordable Handyman Service. Not only motivated but friendly and considerate.

Excellent work and geat service! I live in Los Angeles but needed to get my sister's condo fixed up in Chicago before my realtor could list it. We were on a very tight time line. My realtor had several contractors bidding on the job but they were all ridiculously high. I decided to take matters into my own hands so I went o-line and found Martin.
He answered his own phone and when he learned of my circumstances he drove ri... Read More On CitysearchAndrea Rose 10/1/2009
I would never use anyone else This guy is amazing. I called with an emergency, and he interrupted his day to come over and fix it - got the job done very quickly, and still made his next appointment on time. I seriously would never consider another handyman now that I have found him. Reasonable rates too, although if you've ever dealt with any "normal" handymen, you know cheapness isn't really as important as showing up when ... Read More On CitysearchAnaya 5/22/2009
Awesome My neighbor hired Martin to fix a few small issues in her condo. I let him into her unit, and then I asked him if he could help me fix a light in my unit. It was a small problem but I never could have fixed it myself. He was really sweet to help me out, very professional and efficient. Thanks Martin! Read More On CitysearchHabes 4/17/2009
Affordable Handyman A+++ I called for service at the end of a business work day, Martin answered the call and fit us into his schedule for the next morning without hesitation. He was prompt, polite and very effecient. I will definitely call on him again.
Yesterday was a very nice experience!

Best Handyman in Chicago! I met Martin by accident. You see I was looking for a handyman to fix the work of a handyman who preformed a crappy job and ignored my calls. I found about Martians company from a friend who spoke very highly of his services. I called Martin and he came out the next day to provide an estimate. His estimate was the lowest of the 3 companies I brought in and his reputation was by far the best.

Great service and prompt response Martin was great. He called me to set up an appointment, was exactly on time, and was able to replace my bathroom faucet in no time. He even was able to take the old faucet and send it in to the manufacturer for a rebate for us since it was under warranty. He is courteous and listens to your needs. I highly recommend going with Martin. Read More On Citysearchrobwalton 12/18/2008
Best handyman Martin has done work on our townhouse multiple times over the last several years and he has been nothing short of great. We have had many bad experiences with contractors and handymen, but have only positive things to say about him and his helpers. His bids are spot on, the prices are very reasonable, he shows up when he says he will and the work is very high quality. We have referred him to ... Read More On CitysearchBethanyJens 11/22/2008
Excellent service I was searching for a handyman to install a new garbage disposal and contacted several different services I found on the web. Affordable Handyman responded right away with a quote, dates and times that week and the hourly rate was extremely competitive with the few other companies that did respond. After 3 weeks, there are some some services I still never heard from.
After exchanging e-mails... Read More On CitysearchSommer33 10/30/2008
A FABULOUS HANDYMAN! I could not have been more pleased with the services provided by Martin - of Affordable Handyman. He was prompt, courteous, efficient and as professional as he could be. He accomplished all of the work I had contracted for in the amount of time he had originally specified, at the original estimated cost.
He performed all of the work exceedingly well and left my condo cleaner than it probably had... Read More On Citysearchbethcchicago 9/22/2008

Extremely pleased I contacted Affordable Handyman ("AH") to hang / anchor several heavy mirrors and paintings in my home. AH was able to accommodate my busy schedule and make an appointment quickly and conveniently. Once the handyman arrived (on-time, if not a little early), he was professional, meticulous, patient, and experienced in the task at hand. All debris was cleaned up and the project turned out beautif... Read More On CitysearchLapw 7/18/2008

Faucet/Disposal Installation Martin showed up on time (maybe even a few minutes early), completed the job in an hour and used materials I already had --all other estimates said 2 to 4 hours and wanted to bring their own materials. Martin was very friendly and cleaned up the worksite before he left. I will definitely call him again when I have more work. Read More On Citysearchmpwall 6/30/2008

Reliable, Great Quality and Attention to Detail, Finished Ahead of Schedule I recently hired Martin and his crew to paint the main room and office in my apartment and for some repair to my backdoor. I am really happy with the experience and the quality of their work. Martin offered great advice on paint and finishes. They arrived on time and worked diligently. They also finished a three-day job in two and left my apartment cleaner than when they started.

Great customer service AND superior quality work! We gave them 20+ projects of varying size to complete in our home. They finished all in a timely manner and did a superb job on each and every one. The total cost was very reasonable and completed within budget. They can really do it all. Painting, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, drywall, and more. I have had nothing but bad experiences in the past, so this was a refreshing change. I would... Read More On Citysearchgahanbar 3/20/2008
Quick responce time and great service! I sent an inquiry on a weekday afternoon to get some blinds hung. I received a quote the following day, and had my job completed within a week at below the cost of the quote! Martin was extremely friendly and did the job quickly and efficiently! He even asked if there was anything else thatn I needed done while he was there after he completed hanging my blinds. I would definitely recommend M... Read More On Citysearchrit1977 2/21/2008
Just Fantastic Martin and his assistant came over in two hours notice. I needed them in a crunch and he was there with no questions asked. He came after hours around 6:30pm on his free time once his other jobs were completed. But aside from working on my schedule he does GREAT CLEAN AFFORTABLE WORK!!!!! I have complete confidence in anything he does and I know I will be charged a fair price. That is very hard t... Read More On Citysearchkonr888 10/10/2007
Top Notch Work I've know Martin for several years. He is completely trustworthy. He will be there when he says he will, and you can safely leave him in your home while you are away.
Martin is a perfectionist and a jack-of-all-trades. He will tell you if you need a specialist, and not attempt something only to get in trouble.
Martin removed two kitchen soffits, rerouted an electrical conduit and exhaust... Read More On Citysearchmomelanuk 9/13/2007
Best in Handyland! Affordable Handyman is a great service. I called the service to install drapery rods. Martin (the owner) came over and put up the rods. Martin and his assistant changed my apartment entry and bedroom door locks, which improved the old outdated work my landlord failed to upgrade. I asked him if he would come back and install ceiling fans in both the living room and bedroom. He quoted me a price. I... Read More On Citysearchmaddieh 9/11/2007
Great service I called Affordable Handyman to install drapes in my living room. After our power went out from a storm, and I missed our scheduled appointment, Martin could not have been nicer or more acommodating. He came the next day (and even came early!), and worked quickly and efficiently to hang the drapes. He was extremely professional, and I felt very safe with him in my house. I will be sure to call ag... Read More On Citysearchcooperkj 8/28/2007
Great service Affordable Handyman is a great service. I called the service after putting multiple holes in my wall trying to put up a drapery rod. Martin (the owner) came over and put up the rod.

A true "Jack-Of-All-Trades" I was referred to Affordable Handyman for some general "remodeling-type" work I wanted done in a new town home.

Affordable, dependable, courteous service I called Affordable Handyman based on the reviews that were posted. Everything the other reviewers said was correct. I needed a ceiling fan replaced, which Martin quickly did. I had hoped to get a quote for some drywall repair that needed to be done and Martin and one of his staff actually did the repair the same day. It is a real find to have a resource that works after 4 PM! I was pleased... Read More On Citysearchmjohn5323 7/9/2007
Prompt, efficient, effective service I had a problem with birds getting into my dryer vent from the outside of the building. I contacted Affordable Handyman to put a vent cap on the dryer exhaust vent. The day of the appointment, Martin called to confirm! He showed up on time. He realized there was already a vent cap on the exhaust vent and that I'd been wrong about what needed to be done. He suggested a sort of cage to put over the...
