Meet Bruce
In 1991 Bruce caught the remodeling bug when he bought a 120-year-old house that needed love and attention.
He found he enjoyed the challenge of making something old new again. Add 30 years as an industrial and graphic designer, and you get a natural problem solver with broad knowledge of building materials, process and repair.
Bruce kept meeting busy homeowners who needed someone dependable for the jobs that somehow never get done. So he built the service he wished existed: someone who shows up on time, does quality work and charges a fair price. That’s how Thank You Handyman came to life.
- Owner-operated. The person who gives your estimate is the person who does the work.
- Old-house experience. Plaster walls, out-of-square doors and century-old trim are routine.
- Straight answers. Clear options before work starts, even when that means a smaller job.
5.0 stars from 193 neighbors
Homeowners across Dedham and nearby towns keep saying the same things: on time, honest, thorough. Here are a few recent Google reviews.
“Bruce was great to work with from start to finish. He was extremely responsive and communicative.”
“He showed up on time and went through my requests completely.”
“Immensely thorough with repairing our tub surround… leaving his workspace clean afterwards.”

“Honest, knowledgeable, and takes pride in doing the job right.”
“Responsive, thorough, and professional. He took the time to explain the work he was doing.”

Common questions
Are estimates really free?
Yes. Call (781) 801-3718 or email and Bruce will set up a time to look at the work and give you a price. There’s no charge and no obligation.
Is my job too small?
No project is too small. Plenty of customers call about one thing, then hand over the rest of the list once Bruce is there.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Thank You Handyman holds a Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) registration and is fully insured.
Can you handle several jobs in one visit?
That’s the idea. Instead of calling a carpenter, a painter and a door installer, you make one call and get everything on your to-do list done.
Do you do electrical or plumbing work?
Thank You Handyman handles carpentry, repair and maintenance work. Jobs that need a licensed electrician or plumber are best handled by one, and Bruce can tell you which is which.
What hours are you available?
Seven days a week, 8 am to 7 pm. Leave a message or send an email anytime and Bruce will get back to you.
