Being new to Knoxville, we needed a few things done on the house we just purchased. We had heard good things about Smith Handyman Service. Nick was assigned to install 3 new ceiling fans, tighten up our banister and mount our 63" TV. He completed it all in one day for a very reasonable price (20% less than the quote)! He even managed to get the TV mounted all by himself! I don't know how he managed, but he did! He was polite and courteous. We will definitely be using this company again and based on our experience, would recommend their services to others!

I had them remove an old ceiling fan and light fixture from my living room and installed 2 new ceiling fans with lights. Burt was on time, and let me know when he was on his way. He was professional and made sure the job was done right. Great company to work with. Burt did a great job.

We are extremely impressed with all the work John Hagan has done on our house! He’s on time, thorough and takes pride in his work. We love our new beams. Will definitely have them back for more work!

Jon W. and John H. just completed installing a new ceiling fan from the vaulted ceiling in our family room. They did a fantastic job. Thanks so much you guys and Smith Handyman Service. Kris Geyer (Project Manager) and his team just finished building us a deck on the back of our house and re built the posts and railings on our front porch. They did an exceptional job. The crew are wonderful craftsman and pay close attention to detail. Thanks everyone at Smith Handyman Service.

Let me preface this by saying that my husband and I do all of the work on our house. We've owned it for a bit, and have just been slowly doing remodeling room by room. Part of that is to save and spread out money, but the other part is because we are just very specific about what we want and we honestly want things just pretty simple and basic. Well, after our roof gave up on us (we had a different company replace it after a major leak in December) we were left with significant of water damage to our ceiling. Suspecting we had water damage around the chimney as well, we made the unpopular decision to remove our chimney. I say unpopular because most everyone we knew just told us to wall over it. I was ready to climb into the attic and start chipping away at it myself, but we decided to give Smith Handyman Service a try. We talked to their group about taking down the chimney, framing the area, and putting up drywall and replacing a section of ceiling. After further consideration, we decided to just go ahead and have them drywall a room behind the chimney as well (we tore down the old wood paneling) and re-frame the closets to take the space where the chimney was. This was a big deal for us as it meant we were giving up a lot of control!
Scott Gloeckner came out to Project Manage everything and we have been nothing short of impressed to say the very least. Scott has been on top of the crews the whole time and from the chimney takedown to drywall has kept our home clean so that we could continue living in it during the project. I even had major surgery during the middle of all of this, and Scott and his people have been phenomenal and communicative. We asked to only have the drywall mudded and prepped for paint because we wanted to prime, paint, and finish up the flooring ourselves. They had no issues with this at all!
It has been nice to work WITH someone and not be made to feel weird for wanting to take on certain aspects of the finish work ourselves. My only regret is that we didn't know about them when we had our roof done. If we have any other major work that we don't feel like tackling ourselves, Smith will be our first call.
Scott and his crew pointed out some major damage to one of the original beams in the house and we did a change order to have that replaced. Had we just left the chimney there, we never would have seen it, and the damage would have been far more expensive and difficult to fix later. Scott even had his guys add additional bracing to the roof.
If you are on the fence about trusting Smith Handyman Service or their remodeling group, jump off the fence and give it a go. We did... and it was scary at first, but we are so so happy we took the plunge. Also huge shoutout to Juan for the hours of work taking down our chimney brick by brick. I would have made a much bigger mess than he did :)
