My father, Pete Russo, founded this business in 2006. We worked together for several years as Russo Home Improvement, addressing the small tasks that homeowners face. Now, I handle most projects independently, as Dad prefers to roam the country with Mom. I am Sam Russo, a swift one-man operation that handles small jobs for residents. I am available as early as 7 AM during Monday to Friday.

I aim to carry on the practical and innovative approach that my hardworking father established this business on. I am a versatile handyman, favoring small projects that keep me in your home for under a day.

I have to give a big, Thank You to Sam Russo for a job well done. He's professional, knowledgeable, and honest! I'm completely satisfied with the work he preformed at our house and will recommend him anytime someone ask for a great Handyman.

Sam came to my residence to assess damage to my fence caused by the last storm. Unfortunately, Sam was unable to do the job. He was honest on his assessment of the repair and I appreciated his honesty. I will consider him to do future repairs to my home, and certainly recommend him to friends and family.

Sam got back to me quickly when I reached out through yelp, and even did a little research on the issue I was trying to fix before coming over. He was able to squeeze me in a little earlier than expected, patched up a hole in our drywall quickly, then was able to give some advice on the rest of the project (which my wife and I were already planning do do ourselves) before he headed out. 100% recommended!

Will definitely use Sam again for future needs. I contacted him through Yelp about a backyard sump pump needing replacement and in less than an hour he was in contact with me. We texted a few times to hash out the details and he showed up right on time ready to do the job. This guy knows his stuff. He had all the tools, parts, glues, wrenches...everything at his disposal. He's a delightful guy to chat with and patiently answered any questions I had. Now we just need another rain storm to put this thing to a true test! Thanks again Sam :)

I am always highly skeptical of a perfect review for a person/company/organization. Not that it's ""impossible"" but did you really do that great is my thought process.

Well Sam Russo has thrown my skepticism out the window. Imagine, if you will, having your best friends dad come over to your house and just casually whirlwind through repairing everything that's broken. Then imagine that person with a beard and glasses and you have the delightfully talented Sam Russo. I'm extremely cautious of who I invite into my home to do work. So this was a venture into the wild side to invite a handyman from Yelp in. However I cannot say I regret it one bit.

Not only is Sam personable and engaging, he doesn't interact with you as though he is the all knowing technician. He goes out of his way to make sure you understand what he's doing, that he's completing the tasks to your preference and while he moves surprisingly quick he doesn't make you feel like you're wasting his time.

There's a reviewer who has posted that they've considered giving Sam one star to keep him a secret. I absolutely understand their rationale. I definitely feel like I've found a keeper and I'm honestly more than happy to squeeze into his busy schedule (which I now can absolutely understand why it's so busy!). I can't imagine even trying to look for another handyman even half as talented. Thanks for making this so easy Sam!

Great service! Sam did some plumbing work at my home. He arrived exactly on time with a smile on his face. Work was completed expertly and at a fair price. He is very respectful of your home and a true professional. Thanks Sam!!

First time working with Sam today and I have zero complaints. He was punctual, professional, and his work is exceptional. Prior to our appt today, he was easy to communicate with and was honest about what he could and could not fix. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great handyman.

I have to admit, the thought crossed my mind to give him a 1 star review... but only because I am greedy and want to keep him a secret so he doesn't get too busy! Sam was GREAT! He installed my light fixture quickly, efficiently, and I've already picked out a few other projects that I will be using him for. He was friendly, fast, and professional. I will definitely be using him again in the future :)

I feel like I won the lottery finding Sam! We have had him replace light switches, install fans, light fixtures, fix doors, etc. He has done an excellent job on everything, we could not have been happier. His pricing is beyond reasonable, we would have spent three times as much to have an electrician do the same kind of work. He is very knowledgeable and even caught a few potentially dangerous issues with a light switch and some wiring.

Sam came over and assembled a patio furniture set from home depot I recently bought. While it probably would have taken me all day to complete, he was done quickly within the estimated time he gave. He showed up on time and was prompt. I would use him again for this kind of work as his prices are very competitive as well.
