Highlights
- Quick response times — praised for prompt, friendly handyman service
- Thin review record — just 10 Google ratings, one detailed review
- Listing name mismatch — ezlocal lists it under a different name
Cambridge Handyman Services works out of Massachusetts Ave, close to Kendall Square, and its own site frames the pitch simply: handyman and home-repair calls around that corridor, from quick fixes to bigger installation jobs. The public record behind that pitch is thin. Google shows a 3.8 out of 5 from just 10 ratings, and the only review with any real detail dates to January — a short thank-you note naming a team member, Tarek, rather than describing the job itself. Third-party write-ups echo the same general take: quick response times and a friendly crew. That's consistent, but it isn't much to go on, and the tone underneath the star average reads a little softer than a first glance suggests. One thing worth checking before booking: an ezlocal directory listing files this company under a different name, "The Cambridge Handyman," even though it points to the same official website. That's most likely a directory quirk rather than a different business, but it's worth confirming you've reached the right outfit before scheduling anything. For a small, quick handyman job around Cambridge, this is a reasonable call to make — just get scope, pricing, and timeline in writing directly, since little of that is documented publicly yet.

We strongly recommend Cambridge Handyman Services for the handyman work in our home.. They were in our house two days ago and did a number of repairs.. The service was courteous and efficient, and the price was absolutely fair..

I needed a cabinet hinge repaired and a ceiling light fixed. the light was fixed perfectly. The hinge, which is tricky, proved more challenging. The team said they'd come back the next day with a new hinge and they never showed. When I called - over three days - they never responded. I have now given up. Their work may be good, but their follow-through and responsibility is lacking.

I called Cambridge Handyman Services to get a handyman. They called a third party company and we scheduled an appointment. The day of the appointment no one showed up. After almost 1 hour I called the third party company complaining and I was told that I would have received a call back shortly to know a time. After almost 2 hours and no call received and no one showing up, I decided to call Cambridge Handyman Services directly to have someone else, but the guy was not very responsive and told me that he was calling the third party company again and getting back to me. After 5 minutes I received a message (not a call) from the third party company saying that I needed to find someone else. I called the Cambridge Handyman Services once again and the guy was just unable to give me any answer. He just stayed silent on the phone. I did not even receive a "sorry" or else. I lost lots of precious time. This company is completely unable to do the job they are claiming they do. They are unable to solve issues as they arise. Don't waste your time with this company.
