Handy Hands Co, Inc

Handy Hands is a Jamaica Plain outfit built for the jobs that sit between a handyman call and a gut renovation: carpentry, decks, closets, trim work, and interior and exterior painting. The company says it has been at it for 35 years, and it takes work from homeowners, property managers and general contractors alike. On Procore, where the business claimed its own profile, it lists itself as a general contractor with fewer than ten employees, handling commercial and residential work across Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and carries a Minority Business Enterprise classification. It describes its people as including a licensed construction supervisor, plumbers, electricians, architects and civil engineers, and says the business is licensed and fully insured. For a deck, a run of closets, trim work or a repaint in Boston, this is a reasonable call. Ask for the construction supervisor licence and home improvement contractor registration numbers along with a current certificate of insurance, and settle which address to use on the paperwork — a second Boston address, on Dorchester Avenue, appears on the Procore listing.
