About Helpful Home Services
Helpful Home Services is a independent handyman service operating throughout Boston, MA since 2001. The crew specializes in the long tail of small home repair work that is too small for a single-trade specialist but too important to keep ignoring — drywall patches, tile and grout repair, faucet and toilet swaps, ceiling fan and light fixture installs, deck and fence repair, gutter cleaning, window and door adjustments, weatherstripping, painting touch-ups, TV mounting, and assembly of just about anything that comes flat-packed. Two-hour minimums and up-front per-job estimates keep pricing transparent.
Helpful Home Services serves homeowners across Boston, MA and surrounding ZIP codes including 02108, 02115, 02125, 02127, 02130. Pricing is up-front and quoted in writing before any work begins, with no obligation if the estimate isn't right for your project.
