Todd's Handyman Services

Todd's Handyman Services is a one-man, owner-operated business in Reading run by Todd Brissenden, who says on his site he's been doing small home repairs — doors, windows, drywall patching, minor plumbing, cabinets, decks and fences — for 40 years. The written record backs up the tenure: 35 Google reviews, nearly all five stars, with repeat customers describing him as a fixture in their homes for years, even decades. The specifics span the whole range of small jobs a house needs. In a 2025 review, a homeowner described five years of accessibility work as her husband's mobility declined — thresholds modified or replaced throughout the first floor, handrails added to three staircases and to walls with no existing support, and a ramp designed and built to match the house's existing woodwork. Other 2025 reviews describe a whole new gate built for a fence, supports added to a leaning stockade fence, a garage wall board installed to hold tools, grab bars added in bathrooms, and furniture assembled and artwork hung across many visits over the years. In two reviews from May 2026, customers describe a bifold door fixed after it kept jumping its track and hinges repaired on a kitchen cabinet that had unexpectedly broken, both handled within a day or two of the call. Google shows a 5.0★ average from 36 ratings. One review notes a practical limit: Todd doesn't do plumbing himself, though he keeps a plumber he trusts to refer out. Pricing is repeatedly called fair and predictable, and several reviewers say they've referred him to friends who came away just as pleased. For the kind of job a homeowner puts off because it's too small for a specialist and too fiddly to DIY — a stuck door, loose hinges, a fence repair, an accessibility fix — the record points to someone reliable and reasonably priced who keeps coming back.
