Abel did a great job. Attention to detail and excellent finish. Highly recommended.
We had Abel work on the exterior of our 1930’s cape. We have a lot of original details and woodwork, including wood gutters we needed removed. They were able to adapt to the original details and had a fantastic outcome! Stayed on schedule once the work started, great communication, and maintained a clean work site; even spared our flowers! Glad to have found a crew that we can count on.
Abel at Stronghand Services has been quick to respond and communicate from the first phone call I made inquiring about his interest and availability for our home repair project. He is a delight to work with- professional and kind with great attention to detail. My neighbors complimented he and his crew often, both the work and their character. Clean up was excellent at the end of each day. I would not hesitate to recommend him for your project! He will be first on my list to call for anything else we need to get done. Our house got the love it deserves. Thank you Abel!
We needed to have repair work done on a deck. Able responded promptly to our inquiry. He was prompt, his work was as described in his proposal. While work was being done he kept me appraised of what was happening. At the end of each day he cleaned up the work site. The deck is finished and looks great. if we need other work done , i would call on him again.
We hired Stronghand Services for a massive home overhaul — two bathroom renovations, full window replacements, a living room bump-out, a new roof, and complete re-siding. Over six to eight months, they handled it all, and the quality was consistently excellent from start to finish. What impressed us most was their reliability. Timelines were respected, communication was clear, and when surprises came up, they were handled quickly and honestly. The crew was professional, hardworking, and genuinely respectful of our home throughout a long project. If you need a contractor who does great work across a wide range of trades and makes a stressful process feel manageable, Stronghand is the real deal. We'd hire them again in a heartbeat.
