seeking handyman referrals to buy & hang a bedroom door

See this referral request from a Bloomingdale household:

We need a handyman to hang a bedroom door in our Bloomingdale house. Hopefully someone in the neighborhood or at least in the city, as I`m finding people who don`t want to drive in from far for such a small job.

Job would entail taking measurements and finding and buying door to match 100-year-old house. T

Thanks for any referrals!

I need to find a handyman who could help us hang a few things -- and maybe do a little painting.

Any suggestions?

seeking referrals for carpenters, handymen

See this message from a resident of R Street NW:

I am seekig references of good/reliable carpenters and/or handymen who could replace a wooden fence behind my house. I have found contractor Guillermo Orantes the Bloomingdale emails and the work he has done for me has been fantastic and in my opinion priced quite reasonably, but because he's so incredibly busy it's going to be awhile before he's available again.

So I was hoping to find some other names to get this project finished sooner rather than later.

seeking handyman referrals

See this message from a resident of R Street NW:

Periodically I have seen postings on here where local residents have highly recommended different handymen they have used. I was able to find a few of those people referenced in past e-mails, but upon calling the numbers listed for them, literally each number has been disconnected (and that has been the case for 3 different handymen listed on here!). I was wondering if you could please include a statement in an upcoming e-mail asking residents for recommendations for good, reliable handymen.

I need some minor door frame woodwork completed as well as some basic electrical work completed.

handyman referral

See this referral from a Rhode Island Avenue NW resident:

I wanted to put in a plug for our handyman, ANDY HENSLEY (301. 660. 0652). If anyone in the neighborhood is looking for a reliable person to do some carpentry or other handyman work around the house, I would highly recommend Andy.

He fixed our back fence and resealed a leaky shower for us along with a few other odds and ends around the house and did a great job. He was always on time, returned my phone calls within 24 hours, did a very professional job and cleaned up as if he had never been there. Andy is a great carpenter and is certainly up for bigger jobs - like building a fence or deck.
