Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from RUDY'S HANDYMAN. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A day rate replaces the task list — usually the better deal once the list gets long.

Text him on a Friday about a leaking dishwasher and, one May 2025 reviewer wrote, he was installing the replacement by Saturday afternoon. Speed, and the sheer range of what people hand him, is the thread running through the 85 reviews Rudy's Handyman has collected since the start of 2025. The jobs are the everyday list: garage door trim, two door sweeps, decking boards and a toilet swap, shelving in a tight closet, a shiplap wall, a pair of pre-hung fiberglass exterior doors, replacement window screens, exterior caulking, gutter cleaning, furniture assembly, TV mounting, holiday lights, even a loft bed disassembled and moved. Several customers describe coming back over a span of years rather than hiring once. Two things recur often enough to plan around. Pricing: reviewers describe quotes that hold and no upselling — a May 2026 customer called the quote reasonable and the process transparent from first contact to finish. And reach-back: a June 2026 homeowner texted about those door sweeps and had Rudy on site with a helper the next day, which matches how others describe getting scheduled. He is not always solo. Reviewers mention a crew, a helper, staff, and in one 2025 account he pointed a customer toward an electrician for a kitchen wiring problem rather than taking it on himself — worth knowing if your project needs a licensed trade. The dissent is a single one-star from October 2025 saying only that the work was very poor quality and the writer would not hire again. There is no detail attached to weigh, and nothing else written about him echoes it. What is thin here is corroboration rather than volume: the written record sits almost entirely on Google and starts in 2025, so there is little outside history to check it against. That makes this a straightforward call for the repair-and-install list — the doors, the flooring patch, the assembly job, the move — and a reason to put scope, price and schedule in writing before handing over anything larger.
Highly recommend! Rudy did a perfect job repairing my garage door trim. Communication was prompt and professional from start to finish, and the pricing was very reasonable. I will definitely use them again.
I’ve hired Rudy for a wide variety of projects and every job has been completed with exceptional skill and attention to detail. He’s assembled furniture and cabinets, mounted TVs, hung artwork, installed bathroom hardware, repaired doors, fixed flooring issues, and handled countless other household tasks and repairs. What stands out most is his professionalism, reliability, and craftsmanship. He arrives on time, works efficiently, keeps the workspace clean, and makes sure everything is done right the first time. Whether it’s a small repair or a more involved installation, the quality of his work is consistently outstanding. It’s hard to find someone this dependable and versatile. If you’re looking for a skilled handyman who takes pride in his work and can handle just about anything around the house, I highly recommend him. I’ll definitely continue calling him for future projects.
I hired Rudy's Handyman to replace some decking boards and swap out a toilet, and I couldn't be happier with the results. He showed up right on time, got straight to work, and finished both jobs quickly (same day) without cutting any corners, everything was done to a really professional standard. Pricing was fair and honest, no surprises or upselling. I'll definitely be hiring him again and would recommend him to anyone needing reliable, quality work done around the house.
Excellent job done. We really needed the help and very thankful it was done very well.
Rudy was the best handymen I have used. He was timely, transparent, kind and available when needed. I highly recommend him for many odd jobs. I can’t speak to his range of skills but for what we needed, he was perfect!
