Company History

The First Handyman started as a one-person service offering odd-job repairs out of a van. Over time the business grew into a small crew with a mobile workshop setup that lets technicians bring tools and parts to the site. Growth came from steady local work and repeat clients who needed timely plumbing and painting in older Echo Park homes.

They added a satisfaction guarantee and 24/7 response to handle urgent leaks and urgent repairs that older LA housing sometimes requires.

Leadership

The founder began in residential maintenance and trained in plumbing and painting trades. Leadership emphasizes hands-on experience, timely estimates, and maintaining local ties. Team members often live or work in Echo Park and participate in neighborhood association events and small community repair days.
