Verified record
Handy Lions is a young two-person crew working Boston-area homes, and the thing that comes up again and again in eight recent reviews is speed — quick replies, next-day estimates, jobs done right the first time. One homeowner with a 100-year-old house who says she's hired many handymen over the years called it the best handyman service she's used: quick response, a detailed estimate, gutters and roof cleaned, deck stairs replaced, and a screen door fixed after two other services couldn't manage it. The range of work is wide for a handyman outfit — moss removal from a garage roof and a gutter cleanout, an apartment repaint that came out "clean, smooth, and made the whole space feel brand new," and patiently working through mid-job snags like wrong parts delivered. Reviewers repeatedly mention fair pricing and cleaning up after themselves. There's no complaint anywhere in the record so far, and nothing to flag. For a punch list of smaller repairs or a mixed job — paint, gutters, a stuck screen door — this is a crew with a short but clean run of specific, positive accounts.

“Highly recommend Handy Lions”
Handy Lions is the best handyman service I've ever hired, and with a 100 year old home, I've used many handymen over the years. To start, they replied to my inquiry very quickly, scheduled a time to look at the work the next day, and provided a detailed estimate. Now for the work - it is excellent quality with attention to details. Lio offered options and suggestions I hadn't considered to solve some of the issues. The final results are better than I even hoped for. I had the gutters and roof cleaned, deck stairs replaced, screen door repaired (after 2 other services couldn't do it properly), and window boxes installed on the front of my house. I am already starting a list of the next projects for them. Lio and Mathis were professional, talented, very hard working (in 90 degree weather), and a pleasure to have around for a couple days. I have used less expensive people but it ended up being a waste of money because things were not done correctly. Handy Lions pricing was reasonable, fair, and there were no surprises.
Great experience with HandyLion recently. They responded to our query quickly. Provided a fair estimate and completed the work well. Good communication about ongoing work, patiently worked through issues such as wrong parts and respectful of work space. Will definitely consider them for any upcoming projects.
If you’re looking to hire anyone to do fixing inside or out Handy Lions are the people to call. These two young men are extremely professional, always on time and clean up after themselves. They can do most things and if there’s something they’re not familiar with they will tell you although I think they can do just about anything. Give them a shot-you definitely won’t regret it.
These young men have dedication and will get the job done! I love the work they did
Had a great experience with Handy Lions. They were quick to respond, super professional, and the work was done right the first time. Fair pricing and friendly people too. Highly recommend, will definitely use them again!
