TESTIMONIALS
Words From Happy Customers
Hal N
Centerline School Board Treasurer/ Warren City Council candidate
I highly recommend the handyman services of Jeffrey Matheus. He is not cheap but he is extremely nice to work with, smart and industrious. He offered me all the options on solving my faucet and shower head problems from my doing it myself, to his actually researching the best hardware and installation techniques, ordering the parts on my direction, and rapidly performing all the operations necessary to install them perfectly, and clean up after himself meticulously! I believe no one could have done it better or quicker for such a fair price.
Amy F
Training Specialist @ University of Michigan Medical School
I hired Jeff (The Handy Mitten) to help me with several projects in my condo. He included me in all of the decision making, and was transparent with fees. He is always professional and efficient in his work. He has helped me with projects ranging from hanging curtains to mold remediation and ventilation. I will absolutely work with him again and will refer him to my friends!

Master Fine Carpenter
Jeff is the real deal. I hired him to put a privacy fence around my property a few summers ago and we couldn’t be happier with how it came out. He took the project completely from start to finish from removing the previous fence to measuring and ordering the proper metal supported gate to the complete install with locks and hardware. And now, 3 years later it still looks great and hasn’t needed to be adjusted whatsoever. I have since hired Jeff for multiple smaller projects around my home and he was always extremely knowledgeable and thorough. I would recommend Handy Mitten to any of my friends and family for any project.
