Home Run Handyman is a Rockland-based contractor run by Jim Reardon, who has led the company for more than 14 years and says he has 31 years in the trade overall, working on doors, windows, decks, stairs, and interior remodeling for bathrooms, kitchens, and basements across the South Shore and Greater Boston. Reviews here are genuinely split. On one side, customers describe a fast, well-priced stair replacement — finished in two days at half the price quoted elsewhere — and a deck build customers called well worth it, with reviewers over the years calling Jim and his crew reliable and thorough. On the other, two detailed 2023 accounts describe real problems left unresolved: a new deck's storm drain left draining improperly with the company refusing to fix it, and a door installation that left damaged woodwork, an upside-down handle, and no response to repeated calls. A third reviewer that year described sloppy work that went unaddressed for four months. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor license has expired, and the state registry lists it under the name Home Run Construction Inc. rather than Home Run Handyman. Given how mixed these accounts are, it's worth asking pointed questions before booking — get a clear scope and timeline in writing, confirm current licensing and insurance directly, and ask how the company handles a callback if something isn't right the first time.
“Owner at Home Run Handyman for 14 years 7 months”
Would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. I had to have them come back multiple times to fix things that should have been done before they finished the job. They left a storm drain sitting and draining on the brand new deck they just built and refuse to fix it because it's not part of the "install". What kind of construction company would leave this kind of situation? They removed it and put it back shorter instead of leaving space to allow it to drain UNDER the deck. All the pieces were there for it to reach the ground. They also took all the left over materials, that I paid for, and didn't get a single penny back. Shame on this company and Shame on Lowe's for allowing this company to represent them.
As a small business owner, I know I can always count on Jim and his crew to take care of any of my construction needs. Very reliable and would highly recommend.
If I could provide a lesser review I would. Home Run Handy Man was contracted to install new doors in my home. The incompetent crew left my house after damaging a brand new door, left exposed nails in the woodwork, damaged surrounding woodwork, installed door handles upside down, damaged an exterior light, and didn’t have all the necessary tools to complete the job. I’ve made several attempts to call the business who has not responded at all. This business has no customer service and is quick to take your money without completing the project. Complaints will be filed with appropriate government agencies.
Excellent craftsmanship, installers were very professional, very pleased with outcome...
Home-Run Handy Man came by to build me a deck and I couldn’t be happier with how it came out. They got it done in a timely manner and sent the best guys to make sure they gave me the best results. Professionals who take pride in their work.
