"James made me a custom mailbox and put it in for me. Took the old post out and everything. He built the new one real heavy-duty too. I was expecting it to cost more, but the price wasn’t bad at all. I’m telling you, this man got some talent. He knows how to build stuff and he takes his time to get it right. I’d definitely call him again if I need something else done."

"James did a good job fixing my drywall and changing the ceiling fan. He was nice and did good work. Everything looks good. I would recommend him."

"James did very good work for us. He fixed our exit door because it was not latching right and replaced a ceiling tile. He also put up shelving for our store and made everything very level. He used strong, heavy-duty parts and did a very good job. He came quickly, the price was affordable, and we are very happy with the work. I will use him again for our other stores."

"I hired James to replace my dishwasher, and he did a great job. He protected my floors during the work and upgraded the water lines while he was there. He had every tool he needed and never had to run back and forth to the truck like many other handymen I have used in the past. He was quick, efficient, and did quality work. He treated my house like it was his own, and that really stood out to me. I would definitely recommend Elm Creek Handyman."

"I have hired James for several different projects around my house. I’m pretty handy myself, but I’m not able to get around as easily anymore, so it’s been great having someone I can count on. He has repaired a stuck front entry lock, fixed the heat rope on my roof, repaired my motion detectors, and fixed my kitchen drawers. I am hiring him next to replace my bathroom flooring. James is always on time, communicates well, does quality work, and his prices are affordable. I’ve been very happy with his work and will continue to call him when I need help."

"We recently purchased a house in Champlin and had a pretty long to-do list. James was able to take care of everything we needed in just a couple of trips. We are from Iowa, and from the beginning we felt like we had known him for years. He is extremely honest and transparent, does quality work, and made everything easy for us. I will definitely use him again for anything that comes up. He is our guy!"

"Let me just say, James is a gem! He came on short notice and helped us get ready for our daughter’s graduation party. He replaced some exterior lights and took care of a whole to-do list around the house. He is knowledgeable, looks professional, and got everything done efficiently. I also really appreciated that after sending him a few pictures, he came prepared with everything he needed. He made getting everything ready so much easier for us. I would definitely recommend James!"

"I called James to take care of few things around my house. He fixed parts on my garage door rollers. He came with a lot of tools and he knows very well what he is doing. I did ask him if he could give me a discount, but he said no and explained that I was already getting a discounted price. I had some cheaper options, but my friend recommended James, so I decided to hire him. He did very good work and was professional. He is coming back to give me a price for some deck repair also. I am happy with his work and would recommend him."

"We hired James to install garage storage and bike racks, and he did an excellent job. He is a perfectionist and really takes pride in his work. Everything was installed properly and he cleaned up so well that it looked like he was never there. He even saved all the manuals and paperwork and walked us through how to use everything. James is very knowledgeable and uses better, heavy-duty parts instead of taking shortcuts. He made us feel really good about hiring him. We would definitely recommend him."

"My wife and I are getting older, and there were quite a few things around the house that we had been putting off for years. A friend gave us the information for Elm Creek Handyman, so we decided to give James a call. James came over and spent more than half the day with us taking care of all the little things we had been putting off. It can be hard to find someone who will actually show up these days, and we also wanted someone we could trust and who would treat us fairly. James was honest, professional, and did great work. We already have several things on our list, and we will have him back next spring to take care of some more projects. We are very happy we found him and would definitely recommend Elm Creek Handyman."

"A tree came down in our backyard and damaged our fence area. James came over and was able to clear the trees and get the fence repaired. He reused some of the existing parts where he could, which helped save us money, and he also used better-quality parts from his fencing supplier where they were needed. He had everything reattached and completed in about a day and a half. He did a great job, kept us informed, and made the whole process easy. I strongly recommend James and Elm Creek Handyman. He will also be coming back to take care of some more work before we list our house."

"I heard about Elm Creek Handyman from the community page on Facebook and decided to give James a call. He came out and patched some concrete and fixed up the cracks for me. James was picky, oh my! He took his time and made sure he did it right instead of rushing through the job. You can tell he takes pride in his work. He knows how to do quite a bit, and I also found out he is a home inspector. I would definitely recommend him. Honestly, I told him he needs to raise his prices! Haha. Thank you, James!"

"We had a friend recommend Elm Creek Handyman. We met James at plumbing store and showed him a picture of our sink and the faucet we wanted while we were at the store. He was able to get us a all medal faucet. He was able to give us a price range right there and explained what could make the cost higher or lower, so there were no surprises. He was also able to get us scheduled within a couple of days! He installed the faucet for us and actually saved us money. He also warranted the parts, which is unheard of these days. I would definitely use James again. The guy is sharp, fair, and knows what he is doing."

"My dryer was not drying properly, so I explained to James what was going on. He did some research, came out, cleaned out the dryer, and replaced a heater part. James was polite, professional, and knew what needed to be done. He had to order a part, but he was very honest with us about it and came back to finish the repair. He was able to get everything fixed with just one additional trip. He did a great job, so we decided to hire him to replace some broken window screens for us as well. I would definitely recommend James and Elm Creek Handyman."

"We heard about James from our neighbor. They said, ‘He’s the fence guy,’ so we decided to give him a call. He came out and repaired a section of our fence and took care of all the cleanup and hauling away. James is a local guy who owns his own business, and he was very nice and hardworking. He did a great job, and he is coming back in the spring to stain the fence. We’re also planning to have him come back soon to replace a ceiling fan. It’s nice having someone local we can call when we need something done. Thank you, James!"

"We heard James was an old NE guy, so when our handyman passed away a few years ago, we decided to give him a call. We hired him to replace our screen door. He was quick, knew exactly what we needed, and was fair with his pricing. Of course, the cost of everything these days is a lot, but I told him I understood. He did a good job and was very nice to work with. It’s nice having someone local we can call when we need something done. I would recommend James and Elm Creek Handyman."

"I got James’ number from a buddy of mine. We had some stuff around the shop that we never seem to get to, so I gave him a call. He showed up when he said he would, had all his tools with him, and got right to work. He knows what he’s doing and doesn’t waste time. He knocked everything out, cleaned up when he was done, and the price was fair. I’d call him again. Good guy, good work, and he gets it done."
