McCollum Property Services offers handyman work in Southern Maine, and its website names Scarborough, South Portland, Portland and Westbrook as its service area. The company says it handles repairs from doors, windows, toilets and faucets to patching drywall. A customer brought in Joe to reinstall an undercounter dishwasher that was not properly installed and said he was prompt, courteous and clean. Joe made sure a dishwasher installed in an older home fit right and looked good, according to one Google customer. On Thumbtack, a customer said a dishwasher install got more complicated because of the age of the home, and Joe got the right tools and fittings and installed it in a timely manner; that customer called the price very reasonable. A customer had a 1/2 hp Badger garbage disposal installed in a few minutes. A Thumbtack customer got a garbage disposal replaced and a sink unclogged on short notice. And when Home Depot delivered appliances, Joe disconnected and reconnected a customer's gas stove around the delivery and explained the process more clearly than the store employees did, that customer wrote. On Google the business shows 5 stars from 23 ratings, and on Thumbtack 5.0 stars from 24.
