Helpful Badger is a truly “helpful” service. Jake communicated his arrival time with sufficient advance notice for me to prepare for his arrival. He was prompt, courteous and professional. I appreciated the quality and efficiency of his work. The work site was left clean and I would recommend Helpful Badger to my friends. Quality work and a quality gentleman.
They are fast and very efficient! Cleaned up the debris and very friendly!😃😃😃😃
Helpful Badger is awesome! Jake's team is so friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to provide ample information on what they're doing, why, what they recommend, etc. I know nothing about being handy so I really appreciated this. I will definitely look to Helpful Badger for future needs.
Super helpful folks!
My husband and I hired Helpful Badger to fix our kitchen cabinet door when it came off. Wow! Did Jake and his team do a great job. They were responsive, kind, and clear about what they were doing and why. The end result works great. We'll 100 percent be hiring Helpful Badger again in the future.
We hired Helpful Badger to install curtain rods in our home. The team was very friendly and they did a good job. We will use again!
Jake cut apart and removed an old oil tank from our cramped basement. Job was done promptly, at a very reasonable price, with full communication throughout. One minor follow-up issue was addressed quickly at no extra charge. Thanks Jake!
Fantastic! Super fast (they had an opening the day I called in) and friendly! I love 'em and I'll be back to hire them again and again. <3
Great company! 100% recommend.
Excellent Work.
I had an odd challenging second-story facia repair job. Jacob, did it for half the price that I estimated, and he was a joy to work with.
Couldn't be happier with the folks from Helpful Badger. They provided sublimely excellent service on site surrounded by equally great customer service overall. And they charged a good, absolutely reasonable fee for their work.
Jake and his partner installed hanging lights over our breakfast bar as well as putting in dimmer switches. They were friendly and very professional. One new dimmer switch we purchased didn't work , so they went and got us another. We'll certainly use them again and highly recommend them. They are to perform to do many different kinds of repair.
Jake and his team were great! Super helpful and honest. They discussed what we needed and set expectations. Will 100% use them again.
They’re communicative, punctual, smart, strong, fun and very good at what they do; what they do appears to be everything…I’ll hire them again.
Jake hung patio lights for us and worked out a far better design than I had envisioned.
Jacob did a great job tilling the back area of my house. We got a few quotes and they were by far cheaper than the others. No doubt I’d use them again.
On time. Kept in touch with confirmations of date and time and even letting me know when he was on the way. Polite and efficient. Great job on putting my IKEA pieces together.
Helpful Badger was very easy to work with. They were able to work within my available timeframe and provided good service at a fair price. I would recommend them for any projects that you will have.
Great service, prompt reply, fair pricing. They had to reschedule and come back due to pitch of my driveway but didn't charge extra. Would definitely use them again and for other projects. Thanks!
Pressure washed driveway, deck, gate and cleaned my gutters. Good job, reasonably priced, pleasant and on time. Would hire again.
Jake and Kelsey were delightful, on time, efficient, had all the right equipment as well as went the extra mile being helpful. I most certainly will use Jake again.
Excellent company to work with. Very good work, on time, and good communication skills.
They were the 1st to respond to my needed project on Thumbtack. They were the only ones who offered a free live consultation and estimate. They fixed my fence gate quickly and on budget. Very friendly and professional. Highly recommend.
I appreciated Jacob's quick response to my request for gutter cleaning and maintenance. He worked me in the next day and was on time, very efficient, and was fun to talk with. Mostly, he did a great job at a very reasonable price. For those reasons, I would highly recommend hiring the Badger for your project.
Gave them a call to see if they can help me with a project. Jacob and I discussed the scope of work and then informed me that his bookings were way out and offered some other options in helping to get my projects completed by the right people. I appreciated his honesty and feedback. Although I’m not utilizing them strictly because they’re too far out for when I need them, I am confident his team is more than capable of handling any job they say they can. Finding an honest handyman who wants to ensure your projects are handled properly goes a long way in this industry.
They installed my backyard Gazebo, Jacob is professional and friendly. I will hire again to do jobs around the property.
THRILLED with Jake and team. They did a professional job, and cleaned up after themselves. Super impressed!
Jake from Helpful Badger does great work, quick, and very easy to work with. If you ever need a handyman go with Helpful Badger, they will take care of you.
Really nice folks, did a great job.
Great value and very professional! Mounted my TV, large mirrors, and artwork for the price I would pay just to have a TV mounted from any place else! Communicative and did a great job! Thanks again! Would definitely recommend!
Jake is great to work with - responsible and responsive. He and his team get the job done.
Prompt and good quality work.
Jake went above and beyond and we appreciate that. Super professional and kind which are rare traits in today’s world. Thank you!
Received a quick answer and quote. When they arrived the team was polite, efficient and did a wonderful job. Would use them again for sure.
Jacob, Hal and Cameron did an amazing job today power washing my driveway, sidewalks and patio. In addition on the fly I asked that they clean my gutters. Affordable price, on time and professional. I recommend Helpful Badger!
I absolutely would recommend Helpful Badger.They have done several projects for me including staining my deck and replacing needed boards,sealing deck. The latest was landscaping my backyard.They are very good and reasonably priced.
Awesomeness is what I can say about Jacob and Helpful Badger. Jacob installed new faucets in my kitchen and bathroom and made sure another faucet stopped leaking. He also changed a saddle valve for my new ice maker and water Refrigerator. He and his helper, Hal, were very friendly, professional, punctual, and reasonably priced. I have already discussed another project with him to put up a privacy fence. I definitely would recommend this company/ handyman. Job well done.
They always have done a wonderful job with my pesky gutters and don’t charge me for things I don’t need. Reliable, on time and affordable. I highly recommend!
Working with Helpful Badger was great! They were able to come out the same day and fix my problem!
Great service. They installed a water line to our fridge so we now have ice!!!
I'm absolutely thrilled with my experience with Jake and Kelcie at Helpful Badger. They were quick and professional and did a great job. I will definitely work with them again.
I highly recommend! Jake is great to work with. Excellent communication, good work and reasonable prices. He helped us out at 2 different locations ... one in Seattle and one in Beaverton and he had to make some extra trips as a result but he was very kind and patient with us. Thanks Jake!
Highly recommend. I had them replace and install 4 new sinks at my house, which they got done efficiently, doing a quality job in a timely, courteous and helpful manner. Their bill was quite reasonable compared to what a plumbing company quoted me. Thanks Jacob and Kelcie. I know who I am calling next time I need a repair or upgrade work around the house.
We hired Jake and Kelcie to replace two bathroom light/exhaust fans in our house. They were amazing through the whole ridiculous ordeal and we will absolutely hire them again for future general contractor type work. The details below are to share how they handled the comedy of errors (not their errors, just the way things were going). After removing one of the fans, they determined that an electrician was needed due to too-short wires that wouldn't reach the new fans. They sold me the light/fans and didn't even charge me for the time they were there, mostly because they had to essentially leave the house with a hole in the bathroom ceiling (that they covered in cardboard temporarily). They were super responsive to my texts and worked REALLY hard to connect me to an electrician in their network (who was very busy but still fit us in pretty quickly). When the electricians came to do the install, they let us know that the light/fan we had purchased wouldn't work in the downstairs bathroom due to no attic access. I let Jake & Kelcie know and asked if it was possible to return the light/fan. I received an "ok" via text and wouldn't you know it, they showed up at our house very soon after that text with a refund check so they could take the light/fan off our hands. I don't think I've ever encountered a company that was so good at customer service. Seriously.
Jacob and his team were prompt, professional, and able to quickly and cheerfully adapt if a task turned out to be more involved than expected. We had a list of home repair jobs that had needed doing for months. The Helpful Badger crew took care of it all in one day, and even finished early! Highly recommended. We will definitely be contacting them again.
Jacob and his team are great! They are knowledgeable, friendly, hard working, and punctual. I'm very happy with the work they did. I will be using them again for sure. Chris Portland
My faucet and garbage disposal problems at rental property was source of complaint for a couple months. Finally sought competent reasonable plumber to fix and thankfully and fortunately found Helpful Badger and my problems were fixed to good as new. Jake fixed not only wear and tear age related problems with faucet but fixed other problems under sink that were caused by incompetent installation of dishwasher by major appliance retailer. All within one hour for good affordable value. My new go-to company for handyman services. Highest rating and recommendation.
Jake was awesome. I self diagnosed a problem myself and was of course wrong, but we came up with a solution that will fix the issue on a timeline that will work for both of us. Very fair, very professional. I’ll be hanging on to his phone number!
The job was demolition of a floor to ceiling bookshelf ten feet long attached to the wall, removal of debris and repair of the wall. Two guys, including Jake got it done in slightly less than the time estimated, at slightly less than the price quoted. The room looked like nothing had ever been on that wall. Nobody got hurt and nothing was damaged. Can't beat that. Recommended.
Very vary nice people 👍. On time very good work. I will use there services again. Tru a t me don't look further they are spot on and then power wash it right off. 5 starrr guys nice work and will use them in the future THANKS JOHNNY
They Performed services I requested - arrived as promised and took care of the things I needed done
They were very nice people, professional people. Did a very good job.They went out of there way to help me with another item. If I need anything else done I will call them first. (You can trust them) LAL Thank You
On time, quick, professional and excellent work.
I am very impressed with the way this company does business. Well organized, thorough and were able to handle the repair I needed with expertise and efficiency. I will definitely be using them again.
Very nice gentleman & conscious of your time
These guys are great! Had them install a ceiling fan and they did it in record time. We had some trouble getting it started and they reached out to the manufacturer on my behalf. It was a dumb technical issue in the end, but they were not going to leave the job unfinished. Also very nice people to work with. Super happy and will use them in the future!
They responded immediately, got the work done quickly, and their price was very reasonable. I will definitely use them again!
I am a realtor and found Helpful Badger for a job that required a wide range of general services to be completed. Jake and his team came in quickly and did an outstanding job with all the repairs. Their customer service is excellent and affordability is unmatched to other options I found in the area. I would absolutely recommend Helpful Badger and will be using for future projects on any/all of my homes. Huge thank you to this wonderful company for the work they do!
Very nice people who take care and pride in what they do. They arrived during the time specified. They cleaned the gutters and power washed the house in an efficient manner. They had me inspect their work, and advised if they saw any issues with the gutters and/or roof. Also liked that the job's pricing was up front on their web sight. You knew what you were paying before they got there no surprises. Would definitely use their services again.
Jake and company did a great job replacing old wooden siding and sealing a leaky roof area and even fixing a very old sliding screen door. He and his team are courteous and thorough. We highly recommend HelpFul Badger.
the gentleman was very personable, kind, and quick. he did a great job assembling the dresser. it was assembled within an hour and a half.
Very helpful! Pleasant and efficient service person.
I can only say good things about this group! on time good price friendly all good
They put my bike together really fast. They really did know what they were doing. I have to get on the bike tomorrow and give a review about how the bike works.
Highly recommended. Fast, friendly service!
I was really pleased with HelpFul Badger. First, their website was very informative with up front pricing and scheduling was a breeze using their website as well. Communication was great. They were on time and everything on my to do list was taken care of.
Communicative, timely and conscientious as well as honest. Very reasonable and accommodative. Recommended
Super responsive, detailed and great all around! Highly recommend!
The whole deal was easy and pro. Jacob and his staff communicate very well. Will call them again in a minute.

I've used Jake at Helpful Badger several times for repairs on my rental properties. He's done an excellent job every time. I would highly recommend him for any of repair needs.
Jacob and his team were excellent, they assembled 5 pieces of furniture for me in under an hour and were responsive and efficient. Highly recommend them for any handy work you need done!
Helpful Badger did a great job taking care of some home maintenance repairs quickly and within their estimated quote.
Saved the day by helping install a portable ac exhaust that needed modification. During this heat they were an absolute lifesaver. Installed professionally, and quickly. Prices are more than fair. Refreshing to find good quality work with reasonable rates. Thank you!!
Jake is completing a job for me and his team has been a pleasure to work with on my project!
This was the second time that I used Jake for his help. I'm very happy and plan on calling him again.
Helpful Badger is truly helpful and efficient. It feels so good to have all those repairs completed.
Very handy service. Fast and Professional job done. Nothing couldn’t be better than this for timing, service and affordable price. Will use them again.
Yesterday Jake and Kelcie came to the rescue. I was turning over a rental unit last night & discovered the 14 years old disposal decided to retire, permanently. Helpful Badgers came at noon as scheduled & installed the new disposal. They also adjusted a couple other things too. The new residents were very happy to get the unit as promised. I love the tech that Helpful Badger use and I'll call them again when I'm in need of handy, helpful people. PS: They are reasonably priced and they clean up when they're done!
Great service as always.
Very happy with my experience using Helpful Badger. Showed up on time, did good work for a fair price, easy to deal with, tenants were happy. I will definitely use them whenever possible.
The folks at Helpful Badger are seriously helpful! They came and repaired a fence for me, and also squeezed in time to fix a broken step. Great communication, super prompt, good value, and did a fabulous job. Looking forward to hiring them again next time I need a hand.
The Helpful Badger team were incredible to work with. My fence came down in a wind storm and they were able to work with me to quickly replace it. They were speedy to respond to my initial request for a bid, collaborated on determining the design, and were amazing when it came to working me into their already full schedule. I really appreciated how willing they were to walk me through different parts of the process and they even showed me how to DIY a completely different/unrelated project. They knocked out the fence build in two days and on budget. I’ve had numerous neighbors compliment the finished product. I would definitely recommend the Helpful Badger team and I’m sure I will be reaching out to them for future projects!
They came out and fixed my fence that was damaged.
Jake did an excellent job power washing my parking lot, curbs and sidewalks. He was very attentive to his work and came back a few days later to touch up the job. He listened to what I wanted and was easy to work with. I would highly recommend Jake at Helpful Badger.
Good communication before and after the job. Got the job (gutter cleaning) done well and for a very reasonable price.
I love the helpful badger team - punctual, professional, and afordable!
Our HOA needed to have 2 porches at the back garden area replaced. Jake showed up for all of his appointed times on time and ready to work....the finish work was excellent, and the bid was the best out of 5. Would I recommend him and use him again..? definitely. I'm aready going to use him for work in my condo ...sink and garbage disposal replacement...I'm very happy to find someone for handyman work!
Excellent service, timely and competent. Accommodated last minute request. Definitely will use again and recommend to others.
I needed a mailbox fixed. They came on time and were very efficient! I will use them again!

We called helpful badger for a project that other company was putting off and this guys were able to finish the job quickly and professionally like the way should be. I highly recommend them for around the house or office projects.
Have used multiple times and very pleased! Always professional, on time, and considerate when in my home. Would highly recommend
Jacob did a quick, quality job on multiple doggie door installs. They have very reasonable prices, ACCURATE ESTIMATES, & are upfront with any potential issues. I have scheduled them for a fence install and porch repair when the weather improves.
We were very impressed with the gutter cleaning on our two story home. Service was easy to schedule, communication about appointments and confirmation was excellent, appointment was on time, work was quick and efficient, and service was reasonably priced. Our overall impression was of a of professional and competent business, and we will certainly use them again in the future.
Jake and Kelcie are up for most any work, from room and fixture demo to installing ceiling fans to putting together a full size loft bed. And what they don't know how to do, they always have the perfect recommendation for who can. Feel very lucky to have found them.
They were efficient and reasonably priced.
Communication was great and the work was done without a hitch. The dog door was installed in less than an hour and the rate was reasonable for a small job. Will definitely use them again.
Great job installing 3 full length mirrors in older home. Prompt, quick, and professional. I’ll definitely be hiring them again!
Helpful badgers did a great job on the projects we requested! We had them install a TV Mount, replace 2 chandeliers, and mount a garage storage rack. They arrived on time and got straight to work. Jake was responsive via as well.
Very pleased by the quick and efficient individuals that came. They even were able to fix multiple things while they were here.
Jake and Kelcie provided quick and helpful service to secure our garage by installing a new lockset and repairing the strike plate in the man door. Fast and reliable. We will be using Helpful Badger going forward and highly recommend them.
I've used Helpful Badger several times for various repairs on my house - replacing disposal, installing dishwasher, construction, and roofing repairs. They have been honest, reliable, and do good work. I will continue to call them for any handyman or construction needs and would recommend Helpful Badger to others!
Called them last minute when my food waste disposal stopped working. Rather than charging me $200 for an emergency repair he walked me over the phone to fix it. It was a quick call but he took the time to tell me step by step on how to get it working again and didn’t charge me anything. Will definitely call them for any future household work. Very friendly and professional
We had a gutter that pulled away from the house in a windstorm on a Sunday, Jake responded and came to look at the job on Monday. He got up on the roof and did a quick temporary fix until he could get back in a week for a permanent repair. They came back, fixed the gutter and cleaned all of the gutters on the house. He restored my faith in contractors, friendly, professional and responsive.
Jake was reliable, efficient, and did a great job. He is friendly and easy to get along with. He turned down a different project and was honest about his comfort level tackling something that really needed a specialist. I plan to hire Jake and the Helpful Badger for any future projects in his wheelhouse.
Recently provided Jake with scope of work who arrived on site with all parts necessary to successfully resolve issue. He left property clean and ready for use. Strongly encourage those who look for competitive estimates and quality work to contact Helpful Badger. My client now lists Helpful Badger as preferred vendor.

Jake has been great to work with! He is very responsive, got the job(s) done well, and sent me pictures within the invoice. Very professional! We will definitely continue using the Helpful Badger. Thanks!
Very helpful and informative. They went above and beyond!
Superb service ! Very easy to schedule! Jake and Kelcie are a great team. I’ve had them out twice and continue to be amazed at how efficiently they work. They are very skilled in the majority of handyman services and will tell you if the job is out of their scope of practice.
Replaced smoke detectors, a flush valve etc.
Jake showed up on time and did great work same day we called him. Will 100% use him again.
Jake came to repair a leaky drain and some electrical coeds that needed replacing. He did a great job!
Had these folks come in to help me stopgap fix my disaster of a kitchen. They got me space for a range and dishwasher! Super happy with their professionalism and were excellent conversation while the work was being done. Would recommend their handyman service to anyone. Looking forward to the next project with them.
Super communicative, very transparent, honest, and considerate in their pricing, amazing work!
HB is an excellent choice for those everyday tasks you keep putting off every day. They were very easy and responsive to work with and performed quality work. In one example (a little extreme), they had to fit a door into a previous frame that was so “off” that it required adjusting the new one to almost the angles of a funhouse mirror. Somehow Jacob made it fit and look square. If your list is growing, give them a call.
Jake at Helpful Badger was super-responsive. He came out did a few home maintenance repairs. Very professional. I highly recommend. Thanks!
Quick response to online request and was able to schedule gutter cleaning for the following week. They did amazing work on our gutters. We will definitely use again!
Have used Jake twice now for gutters and once for moss treatment on my roof and a kitchen faucet replacement. He will get my business each time I need something!
We hired the Helpful Badger team when my husband and I realized we were out over our skiis. We wanted to replace a non-working medicine cabinet mirror with integrated LEDs with a regular medicine cabinet mirror. Seemed like an easy DIY swap...until it wasn't. The mirror wouldn't hang right and was in danger of crashing to the floor. We knew we needed help. What we thought would be easy for the Helpful Badger team required intense problem-solving and to get the screws to fit correctly, they had to be customized both in length and in the screw head (I didn't even know you could do that!). In the end, it works perfectly for us and the price could not have been more reasonable. We're really happy that we called in professionals because this is one job we definitely could not have done ourselves. I'm already thinking about other projects for this team. They'll be my first call!
They were early, courteous, and got the job done.
Absolutely recommend! They came out same day to help me in a pinch. The quality of work was fantastic, the communication was excellent and the prices are affordable. Hands down this is my go-to Handyman service from here on out. I’d give more than 5 stars if that was an option.
Prompt, personable, and professional!
My usual handyman was busy so I needed to find someone to reinstall a window AC unit within the week. Helpful Badger was very responsive and Jake came within a day or two. The communication was great and he was very professional. Based on my experience and his availability I'll be using him in the future.
Repaired attic insulation
We have used Helpful Badger at work on many occasions and have always felt very happy with their work. This last week we had an emergency at work and needed to get some flashing reattached to a house before we were able to close the sale. Jake came out that same day, fixed the flashing, and then sent us before and after pictures, unprompted, because he knew the lender would need to see them. They have been a wonderful company to work with and we hope to keep our relationship strong in the future.
I hired them to install a gutter guard on a high part of the house - and clean out the gutter. While here they also fixed a door latch free of charge. They set expectations and delivered efficient , quality service while also providing helpful advice about tools and maintenance. I will use them again and highly recommend them!
Solid work and very happy with agreed upon terms, will use them again.
Great pre appointment communication. Asked questions prior to appointment, knowledgeable, showed up on time and work, worked very efficiently. I will definitely be calling the Helpful Badger again -- and, again!
Jake is a fantastic! Our company was in a pinch to get a sink fixed in one of our locations. Even though Jake was a little booked out he took the time to work late and help us out. He sent us photos and fully described everything in detail that needed to be worked on. Jake made a customer for life.
Very responsive handyman service. Professional and courteous. Would recommend to others.
I am going in for hip replacement surgery soon and I needed someone to install some grab bars in my shower. I had been thinking about doing for awhile, as I am 72 and have been nervous about slipping. I called a number of plumbers and handyman services, but got no response When I called Helpful Badger, Jake immediately picked up. He scheduled a time to come out in nine days. He arrived on time and did an excellent job in putting in sturdy grab bars. Now I feel much safer in the shower and have already requested that he do two more jobs for me. I highly recommend his services.
Jake is always great helping us with whatever task we have for him. We continue to employ Jake's services and he comes with our highest recommendation!!
I used Helpful Badger for a rental and as I was out of state, they were able to do general repairs to get it ready to rent. They were extremely efficient and helpful and kept in touch the whole time! Pleasure to work with. I will definitely call on them again in the future!
Jake from helpful badger is one of the most professional and amazing handyman we have found. Thanks to our friend who gave his contact. He does lot of household work including fixing sinks, installing garbage collector, fixing fences to installing toilets. Amazing and always quality work and does not over charge. If the amount of work we requested is less for the money he charges, he requests to give more work. Very honest and hard worker. I would recommend Jake and helpful Badger for any household fixes you have. Thanks for the great work Jake and team.
Install of string lights. Super communicative, friendly, efficient and fair price. Would highly recommend.
I love working with Jake for all of our outdoor pressure washing needs! He also helped us out with a gate hinge for a client.
10/10 would recommend! Helpful Badger came recommended by a friend. Easy to work with and fair pricing. Arrived early and sent a text when they were en route. Jacob and his crew were very nice. I enjoyed meeting them and look forward to working with them again. Sometimes working with new people can be a hassle, but there was nothing complicated about working with Helpful Badger. Everything from the communication to scheduling and service provided was top notch.
Wish you to know that "Jake" (Jacob Pischer) was of real assistance in regard to a river dock that had become untethered and was in danger of releasing downriver. Jake knew what he was doing, wasted little time, and resolved our immediate issue. Jake is a problem solver and is a personable, gracious person. He is the kind of employee any company would be pleased to have represent them. Thank you, Patric McMenamin
Jake is very professional and does great work! He installed a garbage disposal for me. Turns out my kitchen sink was more complex than the average one, which caused him to need to make several trips to the hardware store to buy parts. It took longer than anticipated, but at no point did the project feel rushed for that reason. He also stuck to the original quoted price, despite the various trips he had to make and parts he had to buy. Couldn’t recommend more highly!
Jacob and his colleague came to help me mount a TV into a corner and also mount a few art pieces. They did a phenomenal job and paid close attention to detail. Great quality. Next time I need any handiwork, I’ll be sure to reach out again.
Awesome Work installing my new wooden fence for my house! Appreciate the hard work, Jake is the man! Very responsive, very professional. I recommend Jake for any home needs!
They arrived at the agreed upon time, did a good job for me. Price was very reasonable. I would use them again.
Excellent service, reasonable cost and people you can trust, second time I've use their services and they are excellent!
Jacob and his teammate did an outstanding job cleaning our roof and gutters— and cleaning up the goopy mess created by the job! Helpful Badger is the first company of the many that I've hired for this yearly chore that I've been 100% happy with their performance. I will be rehiring them in the future without hesitation.
Informative, responsive, and trustworthy team!
We had an excellent experience with Helpful Badger. They were efficient in scheduling, planning and, executing the project.
We have not been able to test the work (drip under sink) but setting up the work, making estimate, and all dealings with Helpful Badger have been expedient and careful so far. Jacob and receptionist very pleasant and friendly.
Professional, and timely. Highly recommended.
Josh was great about communicating with us. There was a supply chain issue and he communicated with the materials company & got back to us. He & Kelsi were very pleasant to work with and the roof over our patio was tested today with heavy rain—no leaks and it looks great!
Excellent work, friendly people. Follows up on their work. Treated roof, pressure washed siding.
These guys helped me out in a pinch despite a booked schedule. On time, courteous, competent. I'll be using them again!
Jake was super responsive, started the job ahead of schedule, and was super thorough. He and his crew did fantastic work and left my home neat and tidy when done. Used Jake for kitchen countertop and bedroom door repairs, pressure washing, and some other miscellaneous items. On my list of jobs needed, one item in particular was a pretty hefty tear out and replace job that I was prepared to have to dig deep to pay for. Upon inspecting he told me the damage wasn't nearly as bad as I thought and suggested a much more cost effective repair. I really appreciate when pros like Jake are more concerned with doing good work and earning trust than with taking my money for work not needed. I can't recommend Jake highly enough. Thank you Jake!!
Contacted Jacob to see if he could set up all my new kitchen appliances and put in my microwave over the range. He and Ryan came out and took care of the job. The microwave install included cutting some existing backsplash tile to fit it in, and Jacob had the right tool for the job. He is very knowledgeable with a can do attitude, and will also let you know the things he can't do which I appreciated. They also installed a light fixture while they were there. A fair price, and it's off my list! Will hire again.
We had Jake come over to replace a broken garbage disposer unit. Jake did a good job in a timely manner. Although he forgot to re-connect one of the cable, when told, he responded quickly and came back to our home to fix it. I would definitely recommend Jake, given that we have used his company couple of times this year. He provides good(and timely) professional service.
Jacob and Ryan did a nice job for us and we plan to have them back to help with other jobs on our list.
Fast and reliable service!
I have used Helpful Badger twice now and very pleased with their service and pricing. They respond super quick and were able to get to my house within a day or two.
Needed to get some dry patched textured and painted after getting some plumbing work done. Jake was awesome.
Thanks for the great work, at such short notice, really appreciate the rapid response on Easter Sunday! would use Helpful Badger again :)
Always answers the phone! Very hard working staff. Would recommend.
Jacob responded super fast and helped me out when I was in a bind. He showed up early and got the job done. He is polite and friendly and a hard worker and I will be calling him again. Highly recommend.
Jake was very prompt and did a great job for a great price. Would definitely recommend
Jacob just finished power washing my driveway and sidewalk. He did an incredible job and had no qualms giving me tips on power washing with my smaller electric power washer. He was friendly, exactly on time, and did a fantastic job. Already have plans to have him clean my gutters and clean my siding!
Terrific service cleaning my rain gutters. The work was done quickly and efficiently and I will definitely use their services again.
Jake did excellent work, great job, will use him again.
Great customer service!! Was on time and very efficient. I will definitely use them again and reccomend them to my friends
I appreciated Jacob's excellent communication. They did a great job of cleaning gutters and blowing off our flat roofs. We will have them back, as this is a task that needs to be done, 4-5 times per year. No more climbing on ladders for us!!!
Prompt response to our inquiry. Scheduled us quickly for service. Pleasant personality. Efficient. Finished job quickly & proficiently.
Great work, had a unique faucet issue that they troubleshooted even tho it took longer than it should’ve.
Excellent job! Very quick too
Jake did a excellent job!!!!! Super fast and knowledgeable about what needed to be done to mount into brick. I have a list of things I’ll be calling him back to do. A+++
Great professional! Diagnosed and fixed problem quickly and offered an ubeatble price. Will use again
Jake was very polite. The first time he came to assemble my rowing machine, we discovered a piece was broken. He carefully packaged it back up and promptly reported the broken equipment to Amazon. He then stayed in contact with me to ensure I could get it assembled as soon as the new pieces were shipped to me. The second time around, all went smoothly. I would recommend this service to others.
I've used Jake at Helpful Badger several times for repairs on my rental properties. He's done an excellent job every time. I would highly recommend him for any of repair needs.
Helpful Badger was sent out to install a lift in my garage. The way the roof is set up made the installation far from easy or standard, so Jake constructed a bracket in the rafters and had to get creative to make it work. He ended up spending significantly more time than planned by no fault of his own and without protest. The lift works perfectly and I couldn't be happier with Helpful Badger's level of professional service.
I have worked with Jake of Helpful Badger for the past 2+ years. My experience has been a great one and I wanted to ensure his company is acknowledged for it. Jake is at the ready to satisfy all my handyman needs and offers referrals when he cannot assist with the job himself. Thank you, Jake, I look forward to building a stronger and lasting partnership with Helpful Badger. - Alan
Amazing
I am very happy with the service I received from The Helpful Badger. It was easy to schedule, they arrived on time, worked quickly and didn't try to sell me extra. Jacob was very professional and personable. When he needed a different ladder to do part of the job, he quickly rescheduled to finish the next day with the right equipment. I will definitely use them again!
I operate a B&B unit in my home. During a guest stay, the leg on the sofa in the rental unit broke. Helpful Badger was able to provide excellent repairs in less than 12 hours from the time I called. I will definitely be using Helpful Badger for my handyman work in the future.
I hired Jacob and team for a door repair and was impressed at how knowledgeable and professional they were. I've used other handymen in the past that were flaky and not well prepared; meanwhile, Helpful Badger was very communicative and got the job done well. Even when my project presented a curveball, Jacob talked me through the issue and let me know what to expect before proceeding. I'll be returning for future handyman needs.
They were so great! A lot of places said they would not help to cut my counter to fit a new oven. They did the project with high quality, and were so nice on top of it! Highly recommend.
They do good work and charge reasonable fees
Love working with Jake and Kelcie on my projects. Very good quality and has good recommendations if it is beyond their scope of work. Will be happy to work on small projects with them any time.
Arrived on time, super friendly and did a great job installing a cabinet. Thank you!
We've enjoyed our experience working with Helpful Badger. We appreciate how knowledgeable, reliable and organized Jake and Kelcie are and they also seem to love dogs, which is a big bonus. Definitely consider Helpful Badger for your next project.
We had house keys and IDs stolen. Helpful Badger came out right away to replace our locks and were very reasonable. They also helped us with referrals for a couple of other projects. We will definitely use them again.
Great job!! Will always call for any future needs
Great work!
Super prompt reply. Arrived early and great job on install. Communicated well throughout project and let me know some additional issues to look out for. Will be using service again.
Fixed our fence post, great job!!
Helpful Badger is super great. I needed help with some home repairs and they came to the rescue despite their very busy schedule. They're very clear about pricing, friendly, prompt and solution oriented - great service!
They built me a beautiful fence. Rock solid professionalism and craftsmanship. We could not be happier!
They fixed a rotten fence for me. Very responsive and good communication. Reasonable pricing and did a great job. Having them back out for another project soon.
Repaired toilet. Repaired Dishwasher. Great general repairs
I had my gutters cleaned through Helpful Badger and they did a great job. I liked that they have the option to pay through Venmo or PayPal. Highly Recommended!
Wonderful service, punctual and honest upfront pricing. Very professional and courteous. Will Be using them again!
Arrived on time, quality work.
Did a great job mounting the television to the wall and I will continue doing business with them.
I’d recommend helpful badger because they cared about the quality of service more than getting business. An estimator came to look at a failing fence post. While looking at it, the estimator noticed the fence post was on a failing retaining wall. Instead of just taking the job, they referred me to a landscaper that would be able to fix both issues. They saved me from taking out the new fence post when I get the retaining wall replaced. I did not actually get a service from helpful badger, but everyone I interacted with was very nice and helpful.
Incredibly helpful service! Friendly, on time, high quality work. Will call again for future work. Thank you!
Jake and Kelcie helped us patch drywall, level a sagging shelf, and repair a vanity in our laundry room. They were very responsive, clear about the work they did, and reasonably priced. We will certainly be calling them again in the future!
They were awesome! They came by to help me figure out if I needed to go the replacement route with my stove. They also troubleshot with my warranty company (which a lot of contractors won’t mess with) which helped me out a bunch. 10/10 recommend
Highly recommend.
Helpful Badger helped me move cabinets and cover up an old phone jack so it could be tiled over. They were able to get me in very quickly and finished the job quickly. I would definitely use them again.
Jake was prompt, communicative, and extremely helpful. He spotted another issue that he could fix in the same location, and took it on within the same service call. Saving his info as my "go to" for future needs!
These guys were referred to me and I am so thankful to have found them! They did an excellent job for a reasonable price. I am definitely referring them to others and using them again!! Thanks guys; everything looks GREAT! I'm super pleased.
The team of two people arrived on time and installed my air conditioner correctly while having to deal with some difficulties with my painted-shut window. They took all of the trash and recyclables with them. They were very friendly and the price was reasonable. I would recommend this company to my friends and to others.
Jake of Helpful Badger was honest and explained the work he was doing carefully. Everyone is booked these days and Jake is no exception. I am happy to wait because I know he’ll do just what I need, do it well, and charge a fair price. Highly recommend!
The second I met Jake and Kelsie, I knew they'd take great care of me. They quoted a very fair price for several smaller jobs that I had outstanding, and showed up on time with an apprentice that they didn't charge me for. They did excellent work, even the apprentice who was still definitely learning but really committed, and were flexible with me when the chandeliers due to be installed hadn't arrived yet. I will be using them for as long as they're available, for all the jobs I have. Thanks y'all - you did a wonderful job!
The repair was in a condo I rent. Helpful Badger was so easy to work with. They scheduled the repair, kept me informed, and arrived promptly so that my renter didn’t have to wait. I was able to pay remotely. I’ll certainly be using them again!
These are a great team of people who will get your home repair jobs DONE! Excellent communication and service.
Jake and his crew were extremely responsive, on time, and professional. They built their pieces of furniture for me and hauled away the resulting cardboard mountain. I will be calling Jake again for handyman help.
Helpful Badger was professional, honest and did an amazing job mounting our tvs and installing some complicated ceiling fans. Would definitely recommend them and will use them again for any other projects.
Great Worker and quality attention to detail
Jake was hired to clean my gutters. He was very prompt with email responses and courteous. His prices were very fair as well. I appreciated that he could get to the job in 1 day, as there was a blockage we were concerned about.
Excellent service, great craftsmanship and attention to detail. Will absolutely call them again and recommend them to others.
Jake was great! I highly recommend.
The team did a great job. No more overflowing rain gutters. Very prompt. Only thing I can say is what great service in stifling heat
Jake was on time and a great guy. Jake installed the straps on our hot water heater. We hit it off great ! Found out we had some history in common so had a great laugh as we were both had been in the Medical field as Nurses. We WILL defefenetely use your servise again as we discused more jobs that need attention. Thank you for your service and I will share my positive experience with friends. Thanks again !!
Jake was super responsive to our request for some work on our 100+ year old home. He worked with us on our tight schedule and gave us a lot of great information in addition to very good work. Very professional, and prompt, all at a very fair price. We'll be calling again soon!
Incredibly efficient, nice people. Did the job, we’re on time, and would absolutely use again.
Very thoughtful and professional work. Highly recommend!
Excellent!
Jacob and his crew from Helpful Badger were very professional and helped me with everything that I needed them too. They also took a look at some other things that were outside the scope of work that day and made some very helpful suggestions. I will definitely be hiring them again in the future! Edit: Part of my fence was destroyed so I called Helpful Badger and they were very prompt with quoting me for repairs and also adding a gate to I can easily get into the woods behind my house. The work is high quality and quick.
Jacob did a great job fixing and replacing a leaking bathroom faucet. He was on-time, thorough and communicated clearly. I'd have him back to my house with other future projects at any time. Thanks again, Helpful Badger!
Jacob came out and built a excerise bike for us. He was on time, professional, and did a great job at building the bike and not leaving the trash from the box inside the house. They had masks on as well. This is the second time we have used them and we will continue to have them do jobs around our house that we are not able to do
Very quick and right tools
Jacob and Kelsie arrived on time and were knowledgeable and very professional. They solved the issues that arose with my install. I have already scheduled them on future projects.
Jake was quick to respond and very knowledgable about our situation. His treatment of our post-rat issue was done thoroughly and successfully.
Badgers arrived early, took apart the shed quickly despite having to adjust their method, and were super helpful in loading onto the moving truck. Above and beyond!!!
Jake was on-time and delivered as promised for a reasonable price. I'd recommend him as a good handyman.
Jake and his crew were fantastic, professional, and they double and triple checked their work to ensure it was done well. They stand behind their work and were timely, friendly, and communicative. I will happily use their services again!
Nice job with the gutter cleaning and power wash. Jake went above and beyond cleaning out our downspouts that were full of years-old gunk and rehanging some siding that fell off over the winter for no additional charge. Thanks, Jake!
Courteous, helpful and efficient
Before reaching Kelcie I contacted several other businesses about a small but unusual project. Kelcie was proactive, positive and went the extra mile to help me out. Thank you, Kelcie!
I had a fantastic experience with Helpful Badger! They recently installed a new refrigerator for me, and the service was top-notch. The technicians were punctual, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. The whole process was smooth, and my new fridge is working perfectly. I highly recommend Helpful Badger for any appliance installation needs. They truly live up to their name!
Couldn't be happier with the folks from Helpful Badger. They provided sublimely excellent service on site surrounded by equally great customer service overall. And they charged a good, absolutely reasonable fee for their work. They even went out of their way to help. When I hired them for work in my house, I asked if they could drop by my Mom's house next door to check out how she could install an air conditioner. They didn't just stop by, they saw that a less intensive option was available, so they just did the work right there: Unstuck a stuck window and did the installation in about 20 to 30 minutes. I may regret providing this review, though. My only negative experience was that they weren't immediately available when I called. :-) Their earliest available time was a week out. That's not a problem. In fact, it's about half the time I expected. But if they keep making customers as happier as I am, they're going to be so busy soon that -- next time -- I might have to wait two weeks. :-)
Jake is amazing! my grooming table broke and he build me a way better one!! it holds heavier dogs easier and it has a better restrain system! he was amazing very professional and kind. he is the best at his job! if your looking for the best you have found it, look no further. you will not be disappointed 😌
Awesome to have someone you can trust to call for services around the house! Jake and Kelcie were on time, courteous, and extremely efficient with the time spent on our project. I we will definitely be calling them again! Thanks again Helpful Badger!
They were very professional, on time, knowledgeable and resourceful :) I have already passed on their recommendation to folks in my neighborhood.
incredibly responsive, polite and quality work. Great value, I will definitely use them again
Had help from Jacob and Kelsey this morning. They were GREAT! Very reasonable price for doing a job from a ladder which we could not do. Professional, friendly, and efficient. Great communication and arrived on time. We will definitely use them again.
I will absolutely hire Helpful Badger again! They were professional, responsive, timely, and did great quality work.
My new favorite company! Jake and Kelcie are quality humans who legitimately want to help people. I am so happy to have found my new handy people. :)
Helpful Badger installed a gazebo in our backyard. All facets from beginning to end of the project we’re done at the highest level.
I had a good experience with Helpful Badger. No unwanted repairs or over head charges.
Professional and showed up on time to take care of my misc. requests. I will call them again when other work is needed.
Jake and Kelscie are a pleasure to work with - I appreciate their being there for me, as a customer, for the past 2 years (many tasks and various). Always on time, always with tools, always with can do and will do attitudes. They have installed a small-area fence, hung curtain and towel rods, affixed my fencing to my concrete wall (stabilization), pressure washed my sidewalks, etc. Both also have helped my mom (a senior) with minor-intermediate plumbing, as well as me - installed new garbage disposal, toilet issues, etc. I would recommend Helpful Badger for sure!!
They were easy, on time, good communicators, and the did the job perfectly well.
Helpful Badger was hired to do some handyman projects. Being that I just moved there were projects That had to be done shelving, a fireplace mantle, installed a new clothing rod in closet, & a microwave Hutch. There crew were on time & cleaned up perfectly. They were knowledgeable, perfection was a must if you need repairs this crew would be the first for the job. It’s a pleasure to recommend this company & crew. the
Jake did a great job and was responsive and professional.
They did good work for a good price and were very responsive. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Very communicative, took initiative and didn't require micromanaging when fixing some projects around my rental. He was on time and respectful of my home, time and money.
VERY happy with the service I received. They were able to fix my garbage disposal quickly and provided a tutorial in troubleshooting for future reference. Will not hesitate to use them again in the future.
Great communication and assistance with my project. We had to reschedule due to heavy rain but I was quickly notified and rescheduled. The team arrived on time and completed the job quickly without sacrificing results. The front of my home looks pristine and ready for spring. Thx guys!
My wife and I found Helpful Badger after searching many places online. They had good reviews, and after using them today I can see why. They were very responsive, knowledgeable, and honest. They stayed into the evening to get the job done in one day rather than having to come back. They finished our project faster and for less money than originally estimated. The quality of the work was great and the cost was very reasonable. We would certainly use them again and recommend them to others.
Jake is AWESOME. On time, thorough, goes the extra mile. I will have him back.
Thank you, Jacob of Helpful Badger! Your outstanding customer service and follow-up really helped our team feel at ease. Knowing that our project's holiday light installation was completed by a professional, really made the project an ease. Thank you for being so accommodating and a pleasure to work with! Much Success!! :)
They were very friendly, had great response time and showed up on time for the service. Pricing seemed reasonable as well.
We hired Jake to install a custom attic access door. Jake was prompt to respond, communicative and knowledgeable. The work was done professionally, we will definitely use Jake again for our next projects - highly recommended.
They were very easy to work with. This one of the most painless services I have set up. I would highly recommend.
Gutters clean - thank you
Awesome handy person services with very reasonable prices, accurate estimates & down-to-earth folks.
Wish you to know that "Jake" (Jacob Pischer) at Helpful Badger was of real assistance in regard to a river dock that had become untethered and was in danger of releasing downriver. Jake knew what he was doing, wasted little time, and resolved our immediate issue. Jake is a problem solver and is a personable, gracious person. He is the kind of employee any company would be pleased to have represent them. Thank you! Patric McMenamin
They are fast and very efficient! Cleaned up the debris and very friendly!
Jake is amazing! my grooming table broke and he build me a way better one!! it holds heavier dogs easier and it has a better restrain system! he was amazing very professional and kind. he is the best at his job! if your looking for the best you have found it, look no further. you will not be disappointed
They arrived a little early (loved that) set to work immediately, got an 8x8 she’s completely put together in under 3 hours.. Then only charged me for the originally quoted 2 hours. These guys are AWESOME! I will definitely be using them again!
Jacob came out and did a fantastic job at assembling my sons portable basketball hoop. He was knowledgeable about this job and we spoke of others that we might have him work on in the future.
