2 weeks agoThe handyman service I hired exceeded all my expectations. They were punctual, courteous, and worked efficiently throughout the job. I had several maintenance tasks around my house - including electrical fixes and furniture assembly - and each one was handled expertly. What impressed me most was their commitment to quality and ensuring I was satisfied before leaving. Communication was clear, and they provided helpful tips for future maintenance as well. I'm very happy with the results and would definitely use their services again. -

3 weeks agoChristian responded to my request immediately. I had a broken kitchen drawer and he was able to schedule the repair quickly. He fixed the drawer, no problem. I also wanted to use The Good Guys to paint the condo. After paying the deposit I found out that my HOA requires Workmans comp insurance, which Good Guys does not carry. Christian refunded my deposit immediately. I would definitely use The Good Guys again! -

1 month agoThey are extremely knowledgeable and helped us understand what was happening in our home after we found a leak. Christian was efficient and thorough, providing us with the information we needed to make decisions on how to fix our problem. Highly recommend!! -
Alan Quick
1 year agoWe had a long and diverse list of repairs that we've been sitting on for too long and as a result we were very anxious about even starting the process. We called Good Guys not really knowing if our list was too big and not really knowing how to navigate the whole process. We are so glad that we called the Good Guys. Chris came and walked through the project(s) with us and mapped out the particulars and decision points in his quote. The quote was accurate and detailed and fair and we felt very comfortable immediately working with The Good Guys Handyman. We felt listened to and never condescended to and felt a part of every single part of our sprawling project(s). We had The Good Guys install a new vanity and toilet, repair damaged tiles, remove ceiling fans, install new lighting, repair damaged plaster walls, remove a wall of mirrors, build out new shelving to replace the mirrors, seal our kitchen counters, and paint several rooms. The work was done on schedule and we felt like Chris and Jaime were our partners - rather than dictate their tastes or the simplest way to accomplish tasks, we were able to ask questions and explore all of our options for each task. The quality of The Good Guys work is impeccable and our remodel is gorgeous, exceeding our expectations. Each project completed by The Good Guys was done so on or ahead of schedule and the quote remained accurate throughout the projects. Our expectations have been exceeded!!

FAQ
How does The Good Guys Handyman determine pricing for electrical services?
We assess the scope of the project, including materials needed and time required, to provide a custom quote after an initial inspection. Factors like outlet installation or wiring repairs influence the final cost based on the specific work involved. Homeowners can expect transparent pricing with no hidden fees once we evaluate the job on-site.
Are you licensed and insured for electrical work?
The Good Guys Handyman carries full licensing and insurance to handle all electrical installations, repairs, and inspections safely. This coverage protects both our team and your property during projects like fixture setups or system troubleshooting. We prioritize compliance with local codes in Chicago to ensure every job meets professional standards.
Does The Good Guys Handyman handle outlet installations and doorbell wiring?
We install outlets in locations like closets or kitchens and handle doorbell setups as part of our electrical services. Our team also performs related tasks such as securing loose outlets and wiring repairs to address specific home needs. These jobs follow a thorough inspection to identify and resolve any underlying issues efficiently.
What is your typical timeline for completing electrical jobs?
We schedule jobs promptly and complete most small projects like outlet or doorbell installations in a single visit. Larger tasks involving wiring or repairs may require a follow-up if additional parts are needed. Expect clear communication on arrival windows and completion estimates upfront to fit your schedule.
What does The Good Guys Handyman do with debris after drywall or electrical repairs?
We clean up all debris from electrical work, drywall repairs, or installations, leaving your home tidy. This includes removing old wiring scraps, dust from inspections, or materials from fixture setups. Proper disposal ensures your space is ready for immediate use without extra hassle.
Why is hiring you safer than doing electrical repairs as a DIY project?
Our professional approach starts with a full home inspection to spot hazards like faulty wiring or overloaded circuits that DIYers often miss. We use proper tools and follow code standards for tasks like outlet additions, avoiding risks of shocks, fires, or system failures. This methodical process ensures long-term safety and prevents costly future problems from improper fixes.
