Mr. Handyman of Central - Eastern Norfolk County & South Shore

Mr. Handyman of Central - Eastern Norfolk County & South Shore is a locally owned Neighborly franchise based in Braintree, providing home repair, remodeling and installation services across Norfolk County and the South Shore. It is a BBB A+ accredited business. Reviews across 2023 through 2026 repeatedly name individual technicians — Marty, Scott, Charlie, John, Larry and Derek among them — and describe punctual, careful work on a wide range of jobs: a custom-matched wood fence panel and post replacement, a pet door installation, a tub and shower re-caulk, stair repair, a diagnosed ceiling leak, and an air conditioner installed within two days during a 2025 heat wave. Several reviewers describe fast turnaround, including a door repair completed within three business days after a prior contractor failed, and a banister installed promptly for a parent's safety. A number of reviewers say they've used the company for years or are repeat customers, including one who cites 20 years of calling on Mr. Handyman for small jobs. Set against that record are a handful of specific complaints. A 2024 review described a drawer-front and glide installation job that went poorly after a scheduling mix-up over how much time was allotted. Another 2024 review said the pricing structure for work that ultimately couldn't be completed wasn't made clear upfront, leaving the reviewer feeling misled. A separate 2024 review described the crew arriving late, leaving a mess, and pricing the reviewer called outrageous.
