Robert Freese Handyman Services

I used Robert Freese years ago and didn’t realize he had a Unilocal page, so my review is rather late. He is fantastic. Although his specialty is HVAC, he is a wonderful general handyman. He replaced all my old hard wired smoke detectors quickly and correctly, and also checked my HVAC, which he said was very clean. He is honest, trustworthy, local and reasonably priced. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Robert is great, he has done quite a bit of work for me. Plumbing for my bathroom remodel and switching to a tankless system with a recirculating pump, he did a furnace swap out and added A/​C to our home. He came out when he promised and finished when he said he would and the work was done correctly. Nice guy and trustworthy. I highly recommend him.

I had several options from my research list on Unilocal.However as it was on a holiday weekend (New Years) I knew my chances were better with a person who can fix my wall heater than an establishment with set hours. I called several business establishments any ways and of course they were closed and I just left a message.
I called Robert and left a message for him as well but he called me back within an hour. Told me he had another job nearby and that he can stopped by afterwards. Less than an hour later Robert came and diagnosed our wall heater problem and fixed it. It was fast, professional and very cost effective. He didn’t try to bs me by selling me fixes I didn’t need.
Happy customer.

Robert was recommended to me by my favorite general contractor. He added AC to my exiting furnace. He was on time for his first visit, listened to what I suggested, suggested a far better option for where to place our compressor, gave me the best quote I received, and got me on the schedule quickly. He suggested a concrete contractor (though I decided to do the pad myself to save some money). Today he showed up on time with an electrician and an assistant, and they got the job done by 4pm. The work is neat, and I’m sitting in a cool (and getting cooler!) living room right now. All three of them were extremely personable, but Robert in particular. He’s the kind of guy you want to stay friends with when the job is done. I strongly recommend calling Robert for a quote before you do any HVAC work.

My husband called Robert to fix a creaky stair, broken fence gate, and a crack in the ceiling. He came the very same day and completed everything. He was quick, efficient, did an excellent job, and charged a reasonable price! Thank you Robert!

Robert deserves all his 5-​star reviews here. We had a sink that needed to be re-​mounted — Robert took a look and gave an estimate, explained what was needed and why, which was awesome (and trust-​building), and then came back at a later date and promptly and efficiently fixed the sink, well within the cost estimate. Sink looks great; I didn’t need to clean up afterwards and there was a minimum of mess and fuss. Plus now I will go looking for a recipe for bacon cupcakes, on his recommendation. Thorough, excellent, professional, and nice, and has good bacon cupcake recommendations.

I got stuck on a project installing my dryer and called around for a couple days to find a handyman to help out. Many were not interested in such a small project and wouldn’t even give me a quote. Robert accepted the job came over, scoped everything out, and when he realized I had been given bad advice at the hardware store, he went shopping for us to make sure that the dryer was installed safely. We will definitely keep Robert’s number handy and use him again!

Can’t say enough good things about Robert. He showed up as promised, the quality of his work was exceptional, he cleaned up after himself, was totally focused on the task while being very personable, and the price was right. Would definitely hire him again, and again.

I called two other handymen in the area who never showed up and then decided to give Robert a try. He showed up promptly, took great care to keep my home clean, and was very polite and professional. Before leaving he suggested some maintenance tips to help me keep up the house and save some money on future maintenance. I will definitely use him again and recommend him to others who are looking for help.

I found Robert on Unilocal!On a Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 I called what must have been over 15 handymen services in the San Ramon area listed on Unilocal and the internet and seriously no one answered their phone.
The ONLY person that called me back was Robert Freese (who called me back right away)! I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Robert could do the job that we had at a property we manage — in the limited time window we needed — without coming out for an estimate first (it was really just a simple washer replacement on a faucet) — for a very reasonable price. Robert was really friendly and responsible and we liked his service so much, we used him again a few days later for some more handyman tasks at our San Francisco rental property. Thank you Robert for quality work at a reasonable price on time when we needed it! We look forward to using Robert’s services again when the need arises with our multiple rental properties that we manage in the bay area.

My husband and I are not handy people, and we found a wonderfully honest and dependable handyman in Robert Freese. He’s as good as they come and we are happy to know him! Originally my husband met him at the park (CVCC) while playing with our son (Robert was there with his daughter). When he came home and told me about how he met a handyman at the park, I was skeptical, but after meeting him and having him work on the house, I consider that encounter to be so lucky for us! Robert helped us make numerous repairs at our old house preparing it for sale and at our new house, making it nice for us and just the way we like it. Robert has repaired drywall, installed shower doors, installed new cabinet hardwares, installed window blinds, among many other household tasks and repairs… all at very reasonable prices. In addition to what I have mentioned, what is the most important to me is that I am letting someone who is good, honest, and respectable in my house too.
While we did not use him for HVAC, Robert is also licensed to do HVAC work. (Lic# 763 968).
