about richard

Richard Mendelson is not just a pretty face.

Before his days as a handyman, Richard served in the U.S. Navy as a submarine commander and worked for 35 years in the alarm and security system business.

Eventually tiring of the specialization of the alarm business, Richard started Richard's Handyman Service as a way to continue to help people, use his hands and head to solve problems, and enjoy the wide variety that comes with general contracting work.

Richard firmly believes that a handyman should be always on duty. When you call Richard's Handyman Service, you get Richard. It doesn't matter what time, he'll answer. Okay, maybe not when he's in the shower, but even then, you'll get a call back promptly and he'll be on his way to fix what's broken far sooner than you'd likely imagine.
