Our Take on Columbus Handyman

A long-running Clintonville handyman and remodeling firm that fixes and builds decks, porches and railings. Best for repairs and modest builds, and ask how pricing works first.

    Brian was really nice and tried his best to fix my custom shutter and one dresser door. It’s not a 100% but definitely better than before. The rate is too high in my opinion.

    The screws in my rear entrance door had worked out due to a bit of rotted wood making the door unusable. The repairs were done quickly and professionally. And it was cost effective. Recommended.

Company Background

About Columbus Handyman

Columbus Handyman has worked out of 3757 North High Street in Clintonville for years, in a house the county lists as converted to office use, and its sign out front advertises kitchen and bath remodeling as well as handyman work. The company says it is family owned, has served Central Ohio since 1997, and is licensed, bonded and insured.

Decks are one of a long list of trades. The website's decks and fences page says the team can repair, replace and build decks, help design and plan a new one, and handle fence repair, replacement and painting. Photos on the Google listing show the kind of deck work it does most: covered front porches with new posts and railings, pressure treated deck stairs, white painted railings with lattice skirting, and a screened porch with a stone base. That makes it a good fit for repairs, railing upgrades and modest builds rather than large multi-level composite decks.

Google shows 4.5 stars from 271 reviews, read November 11, 2026, the largest review count among the companies here that list deck work. One owner wrote that the crew repaired decks and installed railings on all the outside steps and adapted to changes along the way. Others name Grant for handling a multi-part project, Spence for installing a handrail, and Brian for a careful repair. A 2026 reviewer felt the hourly rate was high for a small fix, which is a common complaint about handyman pricing.

The office keeps weekday hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed on weekends and major holidays. The website does not list a licence number, warranty terms or the decking brands it uses.

Columbus Handyman suits owners in Clintonville, Beechwold, Old North and nearby neighborhoods who need a rotted deck board, stair or railing fixed, or a small porch or deck rebuilt by a crew that can also handle the trim, paint and electrical around it. It suits less well anyone planning a large composite deck, where a dedicated deck builder will have more relevant work to show. Before booking, ask whether the job is billed hourly or by fixed quote, whether a Columbus permit is needed, and for the company's City of Columbus home improvement contractor licence.

Columbus Handyman FAQs

  • Is Columbus Handyman licensed for deck work?

    Columbus Handyman says it is licensed, bonded and insured but does not publish a licence number. For a new deck in Columbus, ask for its City of Columbus home improvement contractor licence and whether it will pull the permit, since most decks over 30 inches high or attached to the house need one.

  • What are Columbus Handyman's hours?

    The office is open Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and closed on weekends, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Call 614-263-2479 or submit a work order on its website.

  • Does Columbus Handyman do small deck repairs?

    Yes. Its decks and fences page says the team repairs, replaces and builds decks, and Google photos show railing, stair and porch repairs. Reviewers describe deck repairs and new railings on outside steps. Ask whether your job will be billed hourly or by a fixed quote.

  • Is Columbus Handyman licensed and insured?

    We checked 0 of 1 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.

  • What areas does Columbus Handyman serve?

    Columbus. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.

  • Does Columbus Handyman offer emergency service?

    Emergency availability is not listed for this company. If you need an urgent call-out, check the ranking for companies that do list it.

  • What warranty do they offer?

    Warranty terms are not on file. Ask for them in writing before work starts.

  • How was this profile built?

    Credentials come from issuing authorities, ratings from the company's Google Business Profile with the date we read them, and the editorial take from our own review of estimates, warranty documents and public feedback. Anything the business told us is labelled as reported.

  • Can a business pay to improve its profile?

    A business can subscribe to manage its own listing details, and it can buy a labelled sponsored placement. Neither changes a ranking position or the editorial assessment on this page.
