What Homeowners Say About Tools & Hands

Buffalo Grove homeowners share their experience working with Tools & Hands on repairs, installations, and home updates.

We wanted to replace our backsplash but were unsure how the tile would fit around the outlets and cabinets. Tools & Hands reviewed the layout and paid attention to the edges and spacing. The new backsplash made the whole kitchen feel more current.

Our project list had grown—a ceiling fan, two shelves, a loose door, and a faucet that needed replacing. Having Tools & Hands handle everything was much easier than finding someone for each task. They reviewed the list and explained what was included before starting.

Michael H.

Buffalo Grove, IL

Several deck boards were worn, and one step and part of the railing felt loose. Tools & Hands explained what could be repaired without replacing the deck. They replaced damaged sections, secured loose parts, and made the deck feel solid.
