Thirteen Google reviews, every one of them five stars, and the same first name in nearly all of them: Adam. That is the shape of This, That & the Other Handyman, a Boxford-based operation for the odd jobs a homeowner doesn't have the time or the tools to tackle. One recent reviewer mentions Adam is a veteran, and the notes that keep recurring are plain ones — he answers fast, prices the work fairly, and cleans up before he leaves. The recent work tells you what he's good for. In the last few months homeowners hired him to repair a window that was beyond a DIY fix, to sort out trim and molding left ragged after a floor replacement, and to seal a water-damaged laundry-room ceiling they weren't sure how to close up. Another had him repair three heavy pocket doors — he sized up the hardware a week ahead, then adjusted his approach opening by opening. When a new microwave install left cold drafts in a kitchen, he stopped by the same day. Across those jobs the pattern holds: quick to respond, reasonable on price, tidy at the finish. The work reviewers describe is general repair-and-carpentry — windows, doors, trim, and the small fixes a dependable handyman handles — and several say they have already lined up more projects with him. Two things to keep in mind before you call. Every review here lives on Google, and the history is short: the praise runs from late 2025 into 2026, so there is not yet a long, multi-source track record to lean on. And the work is Adam's own — this is a one-person shop, so scheduling turns on his availability rather than a crew's. For small-to-midsize home repairs and carpentry around Boxford and the North Shore, the reviews point one clear direction. Get the scope and the price in writing up front, and this is a straightforward call for the jobs that have been piling up on your list.

Adam was responsive, straightforward, and professional. Had a window repair job to do that was beyond my DIY abilities, and he took care of it quickly and effectively and for a very reasonable price. Will absolutely give him a call again if we have other home repair work that we either can't or don't have time to do ourselves!

After having our floor replaced, we were left with a number of issues, including repairing or replacing trim and molding. We called This That and the Other Handyman service, and from the moment Adam surveyed the problems and offered his recommendations, we knew we’d made the right call. He also took care of a water-damaged ceiling in our laundry room that had left us not knowing how to properly seal it. He was totally professional and wanted to insure we were totally satisfied with his work. We were. And if you hire Adam for your next home improvement project, you’ll be satisfied too. Adam is easy to work with, returns calls and is very dependable. We highly recommend him and plan to use him for all our future projects.

Adam recently completed a job for us which included the repair of 3 pocket doors. We’re very happy with his work! He assessed the job the week prior & quickly determined the hardware required for the heavy doors & his likely approach. He was able to pivot intelligently while performing the repairs as each opening presented unique problems. We’re very comfortable recommending Adam and we’re thrilled to have a competent handyman to hire for future work! By the way, he’s also friendly and easy to talk to!
