Alex Hendyman runs a solo handyman operation in Cambridge, three years in — and across 75 ratings on Thumbtack it's holding a 4.9, with 95% of that landing at five stars. The reviews on file cluster around a handful of familiar handyman jobs: mounting a TV, patching a crack in drywall, caulking a shower stall or a row of cabinets, hanging a curtain rod. In an April 2026 review, one customer described Alex checking in at every step and working suggestions into the plan as he went; another, the same month, called the finish on a caulking job 'very polished.' The thread running through them is steadiness — showing up with his own tools, working through the job at a normal pace, cleaning up before he leaves. The review history here runs through Thumbtack only — 75 ratings there, 95% of them five stars — with nothing yet on file describing how the smaller share of lower ratings played out. For a smaller job — a TV mount, a repair, an assembly — this reads like the right call; for anything larger, it's worth asking directly about pricing and scheduling, since neither shows up in what's here yet.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Alex Hendyman. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A day rate replaces the task list — usually the better deal once the list gets long.

We had a great experience with Alex! He helped hang a curtain rod across our sliding glass door. He took his time to understand our preferences, was extremely patient and did a very thorough job. His work is meticulous and we are very appreciative for his help! Would highly recommend!
Alex helped me caulk my shower stall and fixed a dry wall crack. He showed up on time as scheduled and the outcome looked very polished.
Alex was very respectful of our home and asked every step of the way what our thought were and even made suggestions. Alex did an excellent job mounting tv to wall and cleaned up after himself. He was well supplied with his own tools and did the job quickly and thoroughly. Would recommend Alex for this type of job.
Alex did a great job of mounting my TV at a higher than normal height. He also fixed my mailbox that was tipped over by the town snowplow. He provided great service for a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
Alex did an excellent job with the tasks I needed to have done (cabinet caulking and clearing of old shelves/countertops in our utility room). He is pleasant and professional. I plan to call on him for other jobs in the future.
