Having been through several handymen in the area and having been SEVERELY disappointed by all of them, I stumbled upon Eli - he had stuck one of those little 'handyman' signs in the ground at the intersection of Happy Valley and 55th Avenue. I thought I'd give him a shot and I'm SO glad I did - he was easy to get hold of, showed up on time, and performed FLAWLESS work that pleased even my picky wife!
The job I had for him was to rip out all the wood stair spindles and replace them with wrought iron ones - he had never done it before, but he tackled it anyway and it came out perfect. I can't recommend this guy enough. As an investigator, it was easy for me to run a quick background check on him before I called; I'm happy to say that there's not much to report - he's originally from Shelbyville, Indiana and even his driving record is flawless. He is, BY FAR, the best handyman in the north valley. In case you can't tell, I'm a BIG fan of people who are extraordinary at what they do; and I'm a big fan of Eli!
