# Pete's Handyman Service

**Trade:** Handyman · **Phone:** (508) 677-7873 · **Website:** http://peteshandymanservice.net/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 3.0/5** (low confidence) — from 2 reviews across 4 sources.

## The honest read

Pete's Handyman Service is a general handyman, remodeling and excavation contractor based in Acushnet, Massachusetts. The company says it works Acushnet, New Bedford and Dartmouth, taking on everything from small handyman fixes to remodeling and excavation jobs.

Google puts the business at 4.8 stars from 6 ratings. The two written reviews on record are older but detailed: in a 2018 review, a repeat commercial client wrote that they'd called on Pete "for many jobs from flooring to painting to general maintenance," adding that he "does great work and is a pleasure to work with." A 2020 review calls the work "friendly, professional" and says it was "money well spent."

Both Google reviews are several years old now, running November 2018 to December 2020 — an established history, but nothing more current to weigh against a bigger remodeling or excavation job.

This looks like a solid pick for the everyday flooring, painting and general-repair jobs its one detailed reviewer describes — just confirm current availability and pricing directly before booking anything larger.

**Strengths:**
- Repeat commercial client — 2018 review cites years of flooring and painting work
- Strong Google rating — 4.8 stars from 6 ratings

**Concerns:**
- Dated written record — the two Google reviews run 2018 to 2020
