Handy And Some LLC

Handy And Some LLC is a Plaistow, New Hampshire-based home improvement and remodeling company that Sean, its owner-operator, says he's run for more than 30 years — kitchens, baths, additions, decks, and general handyman jobs. The company's own FAQ, in Sean's words, says he holds a Massachusetts construction supervisor's license, self-reported as held for 25 years, though no license number is given and it hasn't been checked against the state registry. The written record is deep and consistent: 69 reviews dating back to 2017 sit across seven platforms, and the current site ratings are strong — 4.9★ on Houzz, 4.8★ on Thumbtack, 4.7★ on both HomeAdvisor and Angi. What keeps coming up year after year is Sean himself — reviewers from a 2022 tree-damage repair to a 2025 bathroom remodel single out his own communication, calling him responsive and quick to explain what's happening and why. The projects on file skew toward real remodels rather than small fixes: a 2019 Houzz reviewer had Sean take down a wall to combine living spaces and move a washer and dryer to the first floor; a 2020 review describes converting 500 square feet of unfinished basement into a family room, on budget; and a 2025 HomeAdvisor review covers a full resurfacing of a 32-year-old deck with Trex decking and PVC railing. On a separate 2025 deck job, the crew took on extra repairs that weren't part of the original scope and was careful not to damage the existing rubber roofing while doing it — several reviewers between 2020 and 2025 mention pricing that was competitive or fairly adjusted once a project's scope changed. The one clear exception sits in a December 2023 Angi review: a customer reports the job wasn't finished as contracted and describes Sean turning belligerent and sarcastic when asked about the deficiencies, to the point of being blocked. It's an outlier against an otherwise strongly positive, multi-year record, but it's worth asking current references about before signing a contract. For a full kitchen or bath remodel, a deck rebuild, or a bigger addition on the Massachusetts–New Hampshire border, the reviews back a company that shows up, communicates directly, and handles scope changes reasonably — just confirm the license details and get contract terms in writing given that one 2023 account.
