Jim's Handyman Service is a Dartmouth handyman, and a recent Google customer said they were very happy with the door jamb fix Jim did and that he would be the person they call for future fixes they can't tackle themselves. A recent Google customer who first found Jim Jackson five years ago brought him back for a new to-do list. That customer described him creating new fence gates, installing a platform and ramp for a Rubbermaid shed, replacing rotted wood and creating new railings and spindles on a deck and landing, hanging an outdoor shower on the side of the house, fixing a leaking dehumidifier and fixing a snow blower. The same customer said he looked at each problem, came up with several ways to solve it and let the customer choose, and used his equipment to custom make pieces for each project. The company's site says Jim Jackson runs the business himself and works alone, and that he did handyman work for family, friends and neighbors for over thirty-five years before taking on new clients in 2018. It lists carpentry, home repair and general home maintenance across Southeastern Massachusetts, in towns from New Bedford and Fairhaven to Wareham and Westport, and it cites Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration 188305. In a 2025 Google review, a customer said Jim worked through a long list of jobs, large and small, showed up on time and fully prepared, and offered alternative suggestions to help keep expenses down. Massachusetts lists its home improvement contractor registration, 188305, as active, held by James Jackson.
excellent work, excellent prices, very happy with the door jamb fix Jim did and he's for sure going to be the person I call for any future fixes that I can't tackle myself. Thanks so much, Jim! :)
Jim Jackson is amazing! I’m so thrilled to have discovered him 5 years ago, then he came back to do my new TO DO list! He is skilled in so many things! Jim is a true professional, friendly, patient and allows me to watch, assist, and ask questions throughout each project! He looks at a problem and comes up with many different ways to solve it, offering options and allows you to choose. It is awesome to watch him use all his equipment to custom make pieces for each project! He is intelligent, organized, efficient, and a perfectionist & never disappoints! I’m so grateful for the many things he has accomplished indoors and outdoors and has brought me more happiness and peace around my home! He completed many projects, such as creating new fence gates; installing a new platform and ramp for my Rubbermaid shed; reinforcing an existing wooden ramp; installing 3 flag pole fixtures; installing a new Ring doorbell; mounting 3 fire extinguishers on the wall; installing a new switch for my bathroom light; fixing a leaking dehumidifier; fixing a smoke detector with loose wires; replacing rotted wood and creating new railings and spindles on my deck/landing; reinforcing a lattice privacy fence with 10 ft metal poles and adding additional metal supports; hanging an outdoor shower on the side of my house, creating a shower shelf & installing eye hooks to attach leashes to keep my dogs from running off into mud during the shower; installing 2 garden hose organizers; installing many coat racks and equipment hooks on the basement stair walls; climbing ladders to cut a huge oak tree branch down after the blizzard; replacing bifold door hardware on laundry doors; fixing my snow blower; and installing key cabinets and decorative shelves for paintings! No job too big, no job too small, Handyman Jim Jackson fixes it all! He is like Superman! Jim is the best Handyman ever! 😊
I highly recommend Jim Jackson Handyman Services. I had a long list of things needing to be done, large and small, and Jim was able to accomplish them all. He is everything he claims to be. He showed up on time and was fully prepared. He offered alternative suggestions to help keep expenses down. And his work is meticulous!
