Steve Mills Handyman Services

Steve Mills Handyman Services is an owner-operated handyman business based in South Weymouth, run by Steve Mills himself, covering the everyday jobs other contractors skip — painting a room, some carpentry, furniture assembly, general repairs — across South Weymouth, Rockland, and the wider South Shore. By his own account, he charges $50 an hour with a two-hour minimum and bills materials at cost plus 10 percent, pricing detail that's more specific than most handymen post publicly. The track record is thin and split. Google has logged only three ratings, averaging 2.3 stars, and its short history includes both praise for the work and a complaint about calls going unreturned, with no clear pattern either way. An older Porch listing from 2016 shows a similarly rough 2.0 average across nine reviews. The Better Business Bureau, by contrast, lists an A+ grade with no complaints filed — though the business has never sought BBB accreditation, and that grade doesn't independently confirm the quality of the work itself. Given how few ratings there are and how they diverge from the BBB's clean sheet, it's worth confirming availability and a firm start date directly with Steve before booking, especially since the one complaint on record concerns responsiveness rather than workmanship. For a small, contained job — a repair, an install, a paint touch-up — this is a low-overhead option with unusually transparent rates; for anything where reliable scheduling matters most, get that commitment in writing first.
