Ruggiero's Handyman Services LLC

Ruggiero's Handyman Services is the kind of small, owner-operated shop people call when a house has a string of jobs that do not fit neatly into one trade. James Ruggiero's website says the business has been operating for 15 years and handles home repair, maintenance, and upgrades for homeowners, real-estate professionals, brokers, and investors. The customers who wrote about James describe unusually broad hands-on work. In a 2024 review, one homeowner said he installed lighting and faucets, changed a garage interior, and removed a space-hogging staircase before creating a new opening with a drop-down ladder. Other reviews describe a walk-in shower, two toilets, two renovated bathrooms with flooring, sinks, and toilets, room painting, outdoor light fixtures, basement heat, and a bifold closet door. Reviewers repeatedly mention respectful communication, careful cleanup, responsiveness, and work completed within the expected timeframe. There is one important item to settle before booking. The Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration 203707 is shown by the state registry as expired, with the record identifying Ruggiero's Handyman Services, LLC; BuildZoom reports the same number as inactive/cancelled and gives an expiration date of November 14, 2023. Ask James what registration or permitting arrangement applies to the specific project, especially for work that requires current authorization. This looks like a practical fit for homeowners who want one person to coordinate varied repairs and finish work, from fixtures and lighting to bathrooms, flooring, painting, heating, and general maintenance. Confirm the scope, permits, and current registration status before work begins.
