A To Z Handyman

There was leak in the bathroom ceiling and he was able to fix the wall. He was very helpful gave detail information on what is he going to fix. I’ll recommend him for all future fixes.

Alan fixed our exhaust fan and a bath tub pip in which hot water was not coming. Alan quickly identified the issues and fixed them for a good price.

Alan did an excellent job installing a new faucet. He was on time, professional and completed all the work at a great price. I appreciated his attention to detail especially when presenting the final work product. When I need the A-​team I call Alan.

Allan fixed the leak of a spout and a tap. He did great job efficiently.

I needed my garbage disposal replaced and a kitchen faucet installed. Alan was highly recommended by my mother-​in-​law and I see why. He arrived to my my house on time and came fully prepared with the proper tools. The garbage disposal job was completed with no issues and took him less than an hour. The kitchen faucet however was a challenge as the existing hole in the granite countertop was not big enough to fit the base of the faucet. I thought I would have to have him abandon the job and get someone to cut a larger hole and then have him come back to complete the job. He stepped out to his truck, busted out a power drill with a hole saw bit and was able to bore the hole out just enough for the faucet to fit.
All in all, Alan did a job well done and to my satisfaction. He’s very friendly and and is an overall nice guy. I will definitely keep him in mind for my future projects around the house.

Alan has done many projects around our home. Fixed and cleaned our gutters built a side gate, installed our new garage door opener and most recently, he custom made and installed a hand rail for the stairs coming in the house from the garage.
This guy is the Real Deal! Prompt, courteous, friendly and reasonably priced. I have recommended him to neighbors and friends. He can build and fix anything!
Thank you Alan for your great work ethic and amazing service!
I’ll be calling on you again as soon as we have another project. :)

I needed a gas valve installed in the kitchen. It was a project I probably could have done myself with enough research and free time, but I was on a deadline with a new oven being delivered the next day and I thought I’d leave it to someone with experience.
Alan wasn’t the first guy I called, but he was the only that answered! All the other local guys I called via my Unilocal search went to an answering machine. Alan answered, understood what I needed, and had availability on the day that I needed which was only a couple of days later.
When he arrived, he checked out all of the external variables that would be affected by shutting off the main gas line for the valve install. He duly verified that the other gas appliances were working properly after we turned the gas back on.
The price was as discussed and, I think, fair in accordance with the amount of time and effort he dedicated to the job. I would happily call Alan again for future projects.

We called Alan on a Sunday about some minor household projects. He was willing come to our home within an hour to get them done! Allen was very tidy and his fees were reasonable.
We are new fans and would recommend him to others in the area.

Liked the fact that Alan kept in touch with me by phone letting me know he would be a little late and then when he was within 10 min of arriving. He mounted a new locking mailbox for me quickly and even nailed back a big board over my deck while here.

I hired Alan to fix a hole in my ceiling. The sheet rock had to be replaced, the surface has to be textured and the ceiling had to be painted.
Alan did a great job. He was professional, reasonably priced, knowledgable and efficient. He also did a very clean job.
I will recommend him.

In short, this guy (Alan) is rude, greedy, expensive and very unprofessional. Beware, he does not clean up after himself (See attached photo). I had to clean up all the garbage he left behind.
I called him up to install a dishwasher and told me I’ll also have him fix other things around the house if possible. When he showed up, he asked more than what we had agreed and for other stuff he wanted to charge as if he was called only for that one particular thing (no discount for getting multiple things). I then asked him to just install the dishwasher.
— Very unprofessional and irresponsible. Didn’t even verify what parts he needed before making me go to the store. I had to go again because he had forgotten to check if he had all the parts before the first trip.
— He wouldn’t let me stay in the kitchen when he was doing the work. How rude is that? Who is he to tell me where to sit or stand in my own home. He was just scared that I’ll learn how to install it myself. Very unprofessional.
— He kept complaining as if he was doing me a favor during the work like how he could have been doing two other jobs elsewhere. No one forced you to come. Show some professionalism.
— I helped him take the old dishwasher outside but he then just dropped it in the middle at front door. When asked to lend me a hand to put it on the side. He declined. Wanted to charge me extra just to help me put it few feet away on the side Yes, he is that greedy. I said, forget it. I’ll drag it myself to the side and then I did after he left.
So overall, I ended up paying a lot more than what the other handyman had promised me. Other handyman was not available that weekend.
I’m not letting this guy get into my house again.

I have had Alan come out and fix things around my home and also at a rental home I own. He always is on time and does a great job at whatever I ask him to do. He’s also great about finding the most economical way to fix something rather than replacing it if at all possible. He’s done electrical, faucet work, installation of a garage door, painting as well as fixed an outside roof drain for me. If you want someone reliable and that does a good job, then call Alan. He will get the job done correctly and efficiently. I will always call him if I have any small work that needs to get done.

Alan arrived on time and did a great job fixing the sliding door that was jammed. So my kids can go out to the backyard again after one week of being stuck inside the house! While he was here I also had him fixed a few small items in the house, hung a few pictures, etc. Very reasonable price and easy to work with.

We had Alan install our sink, dishwasher, disposal, and ice maker in the kitchen. He had to come twice since we were missing parts but was helpful in pointing out what we needed to order and doing all he could the first visit. The next visit he got right to work and put everything together really nicely. We had some old parts and some new so it was a harder job than it should have been but he was really helpful and tried to tell us what would work and what wouldn’t. He did just as we asked (even when he advised us not to) and we really appreciated that. I’m sure we’ll have more to do in the future and Alan will be our first call! I highly recommend him.

We had water damage under the kitchen sink that needed some major repairs. Alan helped us. The following are the reasons for the good rating.
1. He came by to look at the work before giving an estimate (most handyman I called previously just gave me an outrageous amount over the phone)
2. He is skilled & had the appropriate tools etc
3. I liked his personality (easy to communicate with).
Overall, he did a good job & the price was reasonable as well. Of course I am as cheap as the majority of Fremont residents and would have liked the work done for half price but I try to be fair. It took him 3 hrs to do the work & he paid for the material as well. All and all, I am happy with the results and will definitely call him for help in the future.

Very very nice guy, did a excellent job, replacing the wash machine faucets and hook up wash machine. He also fixed my drain. Response calls very fast. I will definitely call him again If I need a handyman.

We called Allen for a last minute job that needed to get done by a deadline. He not only met the deadline but he did a fantastic job! Allen is great, he does the job and does it properly the first time. He was personable and respected our home. He took his shoes off when asked too and also wore booties as well with no issues.
He made sure that the work was done to our standards and he also did it with a smile. Allen is great, and skilled at what he does. I trust his work and will always be calling him when something needs fixing around the house.
He replaced a window, and instead of getting a whole new window which is what I thought we needed, he saved us money by getting the glass replaced instead.
He replaced the garbage disposal, and again saved us money by giving us the options of the different motor speeds that were available. which again saved us money.
Allen was honest and forthcoming with the information we needed to make the best choices to get the jobs done. He was fair with his pricing and well deserved.
Call Allen and get your house on point! Thanks Allen!

We really needed an handyman for some small jobs because we are moving — he fixed our base boards, did some caulking and later fixed a faucet we couldn’t turn off (not good with the current drought!)! We found Alan on Unilocal and we are SO glad we did! First of all Alan is very polite and friendly and very trustworthy. He was on time, very responsive, very reasonably priced, and his work was excellent! In addition he cleaned his work space after the repairs quite nicely. We feel really fortunate to have found him and we highly recommend him! We will definitely call Alan for ALL our Handyman jobs even after we move out of Fremont! :)

He is the BEST !!!
I hired a guy (found on Craigslist) to fix a broken wall. He screwed up and then i found Alan on google and explained the problem over phone and scheduled an appointment.
He came on time and fixed it. The fix was PERFECT !!!
The work he did is of high quality and he charged me a very reasonable rate.
I would highly recommend A to Z handyman to anyone with a basic or even complex job around the house.

We use Alan commercially at least once a week. He is prompt, professional, and honest. We’ve used him for several projects around the office, such as cubicle repair, plumbing, cabinetry work, electrical, as well a couple special projects requiring custom work or installation. The staff in the office trust him and respect his work. Whenever I contact him he is quick to reply and confident in his abilities. We have a couple more projects scheduled in the future and we look forward to working with him.
