“I contacted Rutherford Handyman Service for a quote on building a new deck for my parents’ house.
They responded right away, provided a fair and reasonable quote, and were able to start quickly.
They arrived exactly when they said they would, completed the work as contracted, and thoroughly
cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend Rutherford Handyman Service for any handyman needs
— they are professional, reliable, and deliver excellent quality work.”
