House Doctors Has Been a Complete Game Changer
I am thrilled and relieved to have found House Doctors. After struggling (for years) to find a reliable handyman who does high-quality work, House Doctors has been a complete game changer.
I hired them for a series of jobs around my home, and their performance was flawless from start to finish. The team showed up on time, was incredibly professional, and the quality of their work was outstanding. Every task was completed to the highest standard.
Finding a trustworthy handyman can be so frustrating, but my search is finally over. I will definitely be using House Doctors for all my future projects, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of professional, top-notch handyman services.

He was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable.
We had an issue with one of the columns on our front porch and we called House Doctors to help us out. Louis came out and helped us diagnose the issue. He was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. The project turned out to be much more of a hassle than we were ready to commit to, but we really appreciated Louis spending the time going through options and potential next steps with us. Would definitely use again in the future. Thanks!

We just used the House Doctors to complete a complicated job in our home. The people we worked with from the House Doctor were great, able to figure out how best to do the job we wanted done, and were very efficient. We’d use them again.
Paula Kaye
The work was excellent.
I have used Andy on Call twice in the past year, once to repair my deck and the other to do a small remodel on a bathroom. Both experiences were great. The company and their team are very responsive, and the work was excellent.
christine trimarco
Tom is excellent. Very helpful, incredibly knowledgeable.
EDIT: The owner reached out to me, and we found a solution for the issue. Highly recommend this business.
Tom is excellent. Very helpful, incredibly knowledgeable. Some drywall work we had done was a bit lackluster (in my personal opinion).
We hired some electricians to replace the old cloth-insulated wiring in our house, which left us with several holes in our walls. We consulted with Andy on Call for their questions related to home maintenance, and Tom has always been a phenomenal person to talk to about these matters. My wife and I were eager to hire a local company to work on our home. Personally, I’m not very experienced when it comes to drywall and construction, and figured it’d be better to let a pro handle it.
After the contractor for Andy on Call was done, I have mixed feelings about the process. We first hired a different contractor to service some 30-something holes in the walls, and that set our expectations: they did a great job. For the remaining 5 holes in our drywall handled by Andy on Call, I was surprised that it took the worker more than 2 days to handle it.
The employee was only at our house for a couple of hours each day, getting fairly little done. There were disputes about the scope, as the employee forgot about one of the holes that I had shown them in the first walk-through. Finally, the “finished” state of the drywall once the employee was done left a bit to be desired to my inexperienced eye. The texture was rough, the lines were a bit sloppy.
In the end, I ended up researching drywalling on YouTube to patch up the work to my own standards. Another trivial matter is that (as both I and my wife were working from home) hearing the contractor speaking loudly and cursing at the walls as they worked was a bit disruptive.
Ethan Myers
Quality work.
We have used Andy On Call for many years. For installing secure railing to upper floor to the basement. Installed outside lights and new kitchen lights and dimmers. Quality work. Met Andy himself on one occasion. Dr. Ray Newgard

Andy Oncall did a great job performing a difficult wall repair for our condo. They came when scheduled and the price was much less than expected. Well recommended.
Tom Jacobson
Love my new bathroom look.
I had a leaking faucet that needed to be replaced. Stefan came to see what needed to be done. While doing so, I asked about having a bathroom vanity and cabinet installed. An appointment was made. Everything was done within a day, actually within 2–3 hours. Stefan was very professional. Love my new bathroom look. Will hire again.
L “Mickie” Jackson
Would definitely recommend.
Great experience replacing a pergola. Pleasant to deal with. Stefan was easy to work with, was on time and neat. Would definitely recommend.
Sy Rosen
Respectful, Considerate, and Conscientious
I had to have my gas line to my stove repaired (which my usual plumber was handling), but the drywall needed to be replaced afterwards. I have an adult with disabilities in the home, and it was important that her routine be disrupted as little as possible. I explained my needs and schedule to Tom, and he was able to schedule Boris to come out at a time that worked for my family, with transparent pricing. Boris was on time, respectful, considerate, and conscientious. I am very pleased with the work completed and will be using this company again.
Natalie E. Morgan

This is a great place to call.
If you need your door frame fixed along with some trim work, this is a great place to call. If you want a fun, affable guy who walks and talks like Keanu Reeves, ask for Jeff. Thanks to AndyOnCall!!!!!! We have several more projects we never got around to fixing and will certainly be calling this company back. Let's face it—if you have some projects sitting around for two years, just call Andy :)
Lori Post
Work was completed very professionally
Great experience overall! We had to get a plumbing access panel installed in our hallway, and the work was completed very professionally, super happy with the end result. Communication was very easy, and all of the staff we worked with were incredibly friendly.
Jim Sandherr
Professional is the first word I can think of
This was my second time using their service. Happy, happy, happy. Professional is the first word I can think of regarding the electrical and kitchen work. Will only use this service and I've had a few others in Evanston, not worth the call. Thank you for being true to your word.
