ARC Handyman Services

I recently moved into an oven. To take the edge off the heat, I reached out to ARC for help with applying window tinting to three windows in my vaulted ceiling living room. I couldn't imagine how to get the films up a ladder, onto a window, and stay out of the ICU. Danny came by, took it all in, developed a system, and set to quiet work. He was patient with me and the chaos of a house in boxes. My cat even liked him. My cat doesn't like anyone.
There are more things that will need some work - I'll be using ARC Handyman when the time comes.

Kirsten was incredibly helpful with our last minute issue. She was so incredibly kind and caring on the phone. She wasn't sure she could fit us in (it was the end of the day) but called back and said Danny could be there ASAP. It was really incredible she remembered and made the call. Communicative and friendly and Danny fixed it right up. Highly recommend, wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you ARC!

The work was 1st class & Danny is the real deal. You can trust that the job will be done right the first time. I doubt you could find a job that he couldn't handle. My daughter & her husband just bought a house, and I will pass his info to them. And I scheduled the appointment with his wife Kirsten who is a real pleasure to talk with.

Danny and Kirsten have been an absolute pleasure to work with. Scheduling through Kirsten is extremely easy, and Danny's workmanship is second to none. The professionalism they both hold up to is why I have, and will continue to lean on them for any requests that come up.

Worst service; worst attitude. I own 4 separate businesses myself and worked for an international corporation and can not recommend ARC to anyone. Kirsten Lieder is rude to put it mildly. There are far more hard-working, respectful and people oriented businesses in Carpinteria that deserve patronage.

We relocated to SB and were looking for someone to 'correct' the improvements in our rental. Danny took on our entire list of projects - from a complicated light installation to assembling/moving furniture. Danny was professional and willing to do whatever we needed. His work is high quality and worth waiting for. Kirsten was able to fit us into the schedule sooner when he had a cancellation - which was terrific. It's a relief to find someone whom we can trust to do a great job. Thank you!!

I called ARC to come to my work for some maintenance on some office lights located on very high ceilings and some heavy furniture rearranging. Danny was on time, he was friendly and very professional. Handled these dangerous tasks quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend ARC to anyone in need of Handyman services.

My review is of Danny himself. My girlfriend and I were moving out of a home on the Mesa with a very steep driveway. Our uhaul hitch got stuck in the asphalt as we backed down and reached the street. We tried everything we could to get traction but the tires just spun and burned. Danny was working down the street when I asked for his help. He stopped his job and helped us! Danny used a massive jack to lift the uhaul enough to dislodge it. I spaced and left the uhaul in reverse so when it got loose it barreled towards a parked car. Danny jumped in the driver seat and slammed on the emergency brake saving my girlfriend from getting crushed. After thanking Danny for his help I tried to pay him but he wouldn't accept. He instead gave me his card and asked me to review him on yelp. We just bought a house and we will be using Danny for any work we need from now on.

Thanks Danny

We had Danny come and repair a set of pocket doors that had gone off their track. He ended up having to make some alterations because they weren't installed correctly in the first place. Now they work better than when they were new, and he was thorough enough to locate a large staple that was scratching the doors (we hadn't even noticed that this was happening).

Thorough, professional and on-time...we will defintely be using Danny again!

Great service, great communication and they even found a better solution than what we had asked for! Handled plumbing and wiring like an expert. Will gladly be asking Danny back the next time we need anything done!
