Oddjob Rob

Bennett C.

I moved to the Bay Area a few years back and have long needed a handful of jobs done - but didn't really know who up here might be trustworthy or affordable. Finally I had to get the work done - checked Yelp to see who seemed to get good ratings - and chose Rob. And I could not be happier that I did. You never really know if five-star reviews are really reflective of the person or the work - and Rob's are! 100%. First off, he's thoughtful, caring, tries to understand what you want done and how it might best be effected, and utterly responsible. And on top of that his work is great - and as affordable as it is excellent. Not all the work I needed done was easy: a closet bar had had to be rehung in drywall, a lamp fixture had to be hung and wired, a tv had to be fixed to a wall, an unsupported mantle had to fixed above a fireplace, and - most difficult - some immense paintings I have had to be hung very high up (12 - 15 feet) in a difficult-to-hang space that barely accommodated a ladder and which were challenging to say the least. And he not only did it all, but did it great! It ended up being more affordable than I expected and it all looks fabulous. I will not only work with Rob again - he will be the handyman I use for as long as he cares to keep doing this kind of work. Don't hesitate to work with Rob. He's great!

Rob was recommended to me by my friend and neighbor, and I hired him to build a garden shed made of cedar wood. It was a very complex project, involving lots of pieces and a small space to work in.
Rob did an amazing job! The shed looks wonderful, everything fits nicely, and I am super happy :-)
I love Rob's attention to detail, his accountably and how easy it is to work with him. It's obvious that he takes great pride in his work.

The best handyman experience I have had in 20 years of property ownership. Can't say enough good things about Rob but I'll try: He works fast, efficiently, and is an expert at what he is doing. On this visit, he fixed badly damaged door hinges, track lighting, and door bell. He had all his own tools and parts with him. He's a great communicator and called the night before to confirm our appointment. Definitely a go-to guy.

We have been calling on Rob for over ten years for a variety of tasks and repair jobs.He always responds quickly and manages everything efficiently. From installing cabinets, doors, locks and shelving to removing and replacing lighting fixtures or switches he always does a great job. We are so grateful to have found him.

I am very happy to have found such an excellent handy person as Rob. In moving into a new house I needed to have a jillion things done to get the place ready to move in. He has done such a nice job on the miscellaneous repairs and carpentry and electrical work I needed done.
It is great to be able to rely on someone with his level of skill and integrity. I cannot recommend Rob highly enough.

I am so pleased to have found Oddjob Rob! I did a lot of searching for a handyman on Yelp. Rob responded to my online quote request quickly, returned my call quickly, and showed up when he said he would. His rate was incredibly reasonable, and he took care of all the items that needed attention, quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Rob for your handyman needs! He is awesome!

I'm very happy right now. Rob came last week and fixed everything on my list. He did everything from hang pictures to fix faucets to install my icemaker connection to installing lights to installing doorknobs and locks.

He's coming to my office next. His attention to detail and ability to do a variety of tasks is what I love about him!

Rob was recommended by a neighbor, and I'm really glad I found him. He's a trustworthy, knowledgeable, creative, friendly, low-key guy. He just finished his first job for us, and I'm quickly putting together a long list of additional jobs for him.

Rob is awesome. I have never seen him without a car full of tools and ladders, ready for any project. He is honest and knows how to do a lot of stuff around the house. He has been doing this forever and is my go-to person for stuff that needs to get done around the house. He has put in lots of doggie doors, mailboxes, plumbing, restrung double-hung windows, replaced doors, door locks, - you name it - he can probably do it.

Rob recently installed a wood barrier on my back deck to keep my cat from going down to the yard when I do not want him to. He gave me a free estimate, which was great, and also had good suggestions about how to make the barrier. I am very pleased with his work. The barrier blends in very nicely with the rest of the deck and landing. His prices are reasonable and the estimate of cost and time he quoted me was exactly what I ended up paying. I will use him again when I need more work done.
