House Doctors

I was very pleased with services provided by House Doctors. They were very responsive and professional. The tech was right on time (actually even a little early), and was very knowledgable and professional. He did a great job. I’ll be using House Doctors for all my handyman and remodeling needs!

The contractor was punctual both times combined with with doing an outstanding job. The owner is always accessible via phone & e-​mail. House Doctors will show up when they say they will, unlike other contractors, who prioritize your job based on profit & scope.

I love House Doctors, Alexandria. I’m a Realtor and they were so helpful when I was helping an out of town client prepare his house for listing and then with later repairs. Amanda at the office is wonderful! Service is her middle name. She makes herself available after hours and responds quickly. They come on time, are polite get the job done. I will continue to use them personally and for my clients and refer them.

I was extremely impressed with House Doctors, from beginning to end. I called to request a quote for some random work around my house (taking off a doorway, basic electrical fixes in the basement, basic bathroom pluming fixes) and was contacted within half an hour of leaving my message by the very professional, helpful, and helpful office staff (Amanda). One of House Doctors’ contractors, James, came for the estimate the next day and was timely, honest, thoughtful, and extremely competent. James came back a few days later to do the work (it’s great to have the estimate and work done by the same person) and he did an excellent job, taking off a door frame with enough care to re-​install it later without any hint it had been dismantled and replaced. Only thing to note is that the initial visit is a 2 hour minimum, so make sure you have at least 2 hours of work to get done or you’ll get charged anyway!
James provided his expert advice on what to do, how to do it, and how to save time /​money if there were appropriate shortcuts and/​or things I could do. I trusted James, and he did a fantastic job. Settling up with the office staff was quick and easy (again, Amanda was great).
I will surely use House Doctors again whenever I have projects around the house!

Excellent! Professional, efficient and a very fair cost. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with House Doctors. We had a water heater replaced in our DC condo by another company. It turned out a part of a wall needed to be knocked out in order to pull out the old heater and put in the new. This left a hole in our wall that needed to be covered. We reached out to House Doctors and they were very helpful in collaborating to create a solution. The coordinator, Amanda, is extremely patient and professional. Mike, who completed the project in our home, was easy to work with and completed it in half the time I anticipated. We are looking into having them return to do a few other repairs we need in our home but have been putting off. Would definitely recommend!

I used House Doctors to put up some heavy-​duty shelves. The guy they sent (James) was prompt, polite, and did a first-​rate job. I will definitely use them for future household repair and construction work.

House Doctors has been great so far! We recently bought our first condo and were in a bit over our heads with home repairs/​upgrades. Neither my husband nor I are particularly handy. House Doctors to the rescue! Matt came by the other day to fix a wiring problem in our guest room. He knew right away what the issue was and fixed it within minutes. We then asked him to install a ceiling fan, which he did very quickly. He was really friendly, helpful and efficient. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help with electrical projects. Hugh came later the same day to give us an estimate on some plumbing work. He was also very helpful, professional and friendly. The pricing seems very reasonable, especially for the DC area. We are very grateful for House Doctors’ help in making our new condo feel like home!

The handyman came on time. Completed the work faster than I expected. Answered all my questions and concerns. Great communication from the Coordinator. She answered all my emails and was great with all the changes I had to make before the appointment date. Great experience.

I just had my first (but not last) experience with House Doctors. I called, they scheduled appointment to look over my basement remodeling project right away. Now we are enjoying our recently remodeled basement! Hugh and his folks exhibited unsurpassed customer service and quality workmanship. The job was done on time and on budget. They have a new customer in me!

These guys are a great local franchise with a very responsive crew and expert know-​how. If they are in over their head, they tell you up front (before they start billing). I have used them for years on 5+ jobs. Pricing is fair (unless it is a huge job) as they charge $ 99/​hour and that can be extreme when comparing against a flat fee company (like big paint jobs, or whole job refinishing).

I have hired this company on several occasions from hanging new ceiling fans, to deck repairs, to plumbing and much more. When I moved two years ago they did all the punch work needed to get it on the market. Everything done was timely and professionaly. Since then they have worked on my new house doing various things and at my place of business. I would definitely recommend them and will hire them again when needed!

I contacted this business over a week ago and received an immediate e-​mail from them informing me someone would contact me regarding my list of repairs. My initial reaction was great. I will get my home improvements done before I put my house on the market. Nine days later I am still waiting for the initial contact. They have my e-​mail and home phone number, so what is the problem? The owner of this company lives in my neighborhood. Needless to say, I will not recommend this company. Sorry but this company doesn’t deserve a star.

Please don’t use this company unless you like contractors who are incapable of showing up on time, doing a quality job, and not damaging other things. I’m on day four of waiting for there guys to finish a job. And when I complained I was informed that I should just use another bathroom. I ONLY HAVE ONE! What other bathroom do you suggest I use, the neighbors? Don’t use this company, unless you have really forgiving neighbors or just like being really frustrated. There is no excuse for this level of incompetence.
