ARC Handyman Services

My first contact was with Kirsten. She was friendly, gave comprehensive information on what to expect and scheduled me right away, giving me an estimate of time and price.
Dan arrived with all the tools necessary to complete the assembly of a Murphy bed in 3 giant boxes. He figured it all out and then helped me install window curtain rods and do a few small repairs. All was swept up and boxes removed to our recycle. Excellent service and knowledge. I would recommend them.

Excellent work, very much appreciate the timeliness and attention to detail. I will definitely recommend and use again at my home.

I had a wonderful experience using ARC for my home improvement project. Dan arrived exactly on time, was courteous and professional, and did great work. He was friendly and collaborative as we brainstormed a solution to my issue (gutter repair and downspout replacement). Communication with Kirsten at the main office was a breeze and pricing was reasonable and transparent. I highly recommend Dan for your home improvement needs!

Really substandard work. Recommended him to a friend and he took total advantage of her. Very sad. Wish people had more integrity.

Everything about this business is professional, helpful, and friendly. Kirsten's phone calls were efficient, but more than that they were warm and reassuring -- We needed advice about a flooding situation under our kitchen cabinets .. we were hoping that Danny could just replace the supports and repair the damaged materials. He carefully assessed the damages and suggested that the job probably called for extensive remodeling -- and that we should consult a cabinet maker. We were disappointed because we sensed right away that Danny was a person we would trust to do the job! We will most definitely contact ARC services again for jobs when they pop up -- which they seem to do frequently --. A great asset for the Carpinteria community!

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.
