Common Questions
Do you handle common Chicago electrical issues like rodent-damaged wiring in attics?
Yes, we do. As a licensed service with extensive electrical training, we frequently address this exact local issue for Chicago homeowners. Our process involves a thorough inspection to identify all compromised wiring, safe removal of the damaged sections, and a complete repair or replacement following current codes. We understand how older Chicago homes and seasonal pests can lead to these problems, and we provide a durable fix to restore safety and function.
What is included in your 'one-stop shop' handyman service?
Our 'one-stop shop' approach means we can manage a wide variety of projects in a single visit. This includes handyman tasks like assembly, caulking, and door repair; painting and staining for both interiors and exteriors; drywall installation and wall finishing; and a full range of electrical work from fixture and outlet installation to panel and EV charger service. This breadth of service saves you time and coordination hassle, whether you're refreshing a room or addressing multiple maintenance items.
How does your pricing and booking work for a project?
We offer two straightforward options. For smaller or exploratory tasks, you can book a handyman (and a helper if needed) at a clear hourly rate. For most projects, we provide fixed-price quotes after a consultation, so you know the total cost upfront with no surprises. You can book initial consultations and manage invoices and payments online for convenience. This flexible system is designed to fit the varying scope of home maintenance and improvement projects common in the Chicago area.
Company Background
I'm the owner of The Good Guys Handyman, a Chicago native who started as an apprentice in my uncle's construction company at 16. After over 15 years of hands-on training across multiple trades, I founded this business to meet the local demand for reliable, multi-skilled help. We've grown into a true one-stop shop for Chicago homeowners, offering everything from drywall repair and painting to electrical work and assembly. Our approach is built on the deep, practical experience gained right here in the city, allowing us to handle the scattered projects and specific maintenance needs common in Chicago's diverse homes. We provide clear, fixed quotes and straightforward hourly booking to make getting quality work done as simple as possible for our neighbors.
