I have called on Kevin numerous ties to help me with various jobs. I am a real estate agent and it is very reassuring to know that there is a reliable, competent and honest workman I can call. I have also had him do work inside of my home and outside. The quality of his work is excellent! Kevin is knowledgeable on all aspects of a home. I would highly recommend Kevin Connelly to handle any jobs that need to be done.
Kevin Connolly, The Acton Handyman is great - I don't really want to tell you how good he is as then he'll get even more busy. Kevin is superior for lots of reasons; Superior work - his work is thorough - and he does those other little extra things that you might not expect - fixing other minor things while doing a major project. He just does it, without asking and this is great. He noticed a bolt was coming loose on the garage door - fixed it. He put in a new roller for the garage door so that it would close correctly - just fixed those little nagging things that make life unpleasant. One thing I really like is that he cleans up after himself. He recently installed some insulation in out basement and the basement was cleaner when he was done than when he started. He has also installed windows and done another excellent job on those. All of his work is very professional. He understands what we want done so there are no surprises along the way.. We will continue to use Kevin, The Acton Handyman in the future. We like him, professionally and personally. I can't say enough about him and his work.
