    Ryan deserves 10 stars! He did two big projects at my house and far exceeded my expectations. Not only is he kind, honest, and fair. He is the hardest worker, making sure he does every step right. I am so pleased and grateful he found time for me! I can't recommend him enough! Thanks again Ryan! You're the Best!

    Ryan was timely and professional. Completed all the requested tasks: fixed gutters, rebuild/repair deck stairs, fix and put on bi-fold closet doors, and fix cabinet doors. Ryan was extremely economical and wise and creative to save costs. We appreciate his help and work.

    Ryan is the nicest and most reputable tradesperson we've worked with. He has done 3 random projects for us and has completed each one perfectly and at an affordable rate. We appreciate his help so much and would recommend him to everyone!

    Ryan at Fair and Square Repair is absolutely fantastic at what he does and has a friendly way. Organized, efficient, thoughtful about his work. Extremely professional. You can just see the professionalism with how he manages his truck (very neat/efficient). He worked on wall hangings, repairs, shelving, removal of a satellite dish/wires, fencing, and sealing for us so far. We plan to use Fair and Square consistently as the value for money is huge.

    Ryan is reliable and does great work. His prices are fair and reasonable. He is more than helpful in assessing work to be done, and the best way to get it done. To add to that he is very personable guy. I highly recommend him.

    Ryan came to our condo again for home more maintenance repairs. The shower was in super desperate need of some TLC and he made it look brand new. He worked extremely hard and got the job done. I am super happy and will most definitely use his services again!!
  • Avatar Ryan Rapoport ★★★★★ a year ago
    Ryan did a great job with our shower, what a difference! He also has fixed several things around our home. Would highly recommend his services!

    Did an excellent job on a exercise equipment assembly at our house. This guy is super versatile — the quintessential handyman. Plus, hes just a really conscientious and kind individual. He will not let you down!
  • Avatar Brigitte Duval ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Ryan arrived on time, is professional and courteous and I have no hesitation in recommending him. He tackled a very hard to reach painting project on the sloping roof of my house. Ryan is a hard worker and takes such pride in his work and the finished result was perfect!
  • Avatar Beth Windler ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Extremely professional, reliable, and skilled. Every job he's done for us has been superb.
  • Avatar Samantha Chin ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Ryan was great to work with! He helped repair our storm doors that have been annoying because they weren't closing properly. Now we have doors that open and shut smoothly. Definitely the handyman we'll be contacting for future repairs and projects!

    Ryan was nothing short of fantastic. Excellent communication, attention to detail and management of the projects. Our new "go to" without a doubt.
  • Avatar William Walberg ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Professional and responsive. Gave a fair assessment of some water damage in our home and showed great attention to detail. Would 100% recommend and call again.
  • Avatar Lisa Bartholomaus ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Ryan is very friendly and professional. He got to work and finished the project in his estimated time (replaced range hood). We will definitely be calling for his service when needed.
  • Avatar Trevor Smith ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    I had some external damage that would allow small animals to enter my house. After showing the area of concern he noticed another nearby entry point. I'm extremely pleased with his solution and I appreciate his dedication towards fully solving the problem. I would definitely recommend Ryan and would call him again.

    "If you need a great handyman, I recommend you call Ryan Pattison of Fair and Square Repair. We have used him on several projects and he has exceeded our expectations on all of them! He can do/fix anything & is meticulous in everything he does...
    Absolutely reliable."

    Ryan is outstanding. He is professional, punctual, detail oriented and a perfectionist. He was able to complete an incredibly wide array of repairs. I would not hesitate to refer him. Excellent work.

    I have used Fair and Square Repair for multiple projects around my house. One of my first projects was a closet remodel. This closet is one that is used most in my house right off my kitchen. I don't have a pantry in my kitchen so I really needed to better utilize my space for some of my larger kitchen appliances such as an air fryer, instant pot, kitchenaide mixer, etc along with shoes and coats. Fair and Square helped me utilize every square inch of this closet with sturdy shelving, strategically customizing the distance between the shelves to accommodate all my different sized objects. He also created a coat rack that my kids could access for their coats. Finally my kitchen broom and mop all fit with no problem. Only thing I regret with this project is that I didn't do it a long time ago! Ryan did an amazing job and it far exceeded my expectations!
    Other miscellaneous jobs I've had Fair and Square Repair do: hanging a sliding barn door in a bedroom, anchoring a mirror, hang shelving, and he has even helped with replacing a dead battery in my car when I was in a pinch. I can't recommend this company enough! I have been so pleased with all the work I have had done! Ryan is on time, hardworking, creative, and very fair pricing! Highly recommend!! - Amy Sazama

    I believe what sets Ryan apart from other repair services I've used is his ability to think outside of the box and be creative. I have an old Honda lawn mower that needed replacement parts of which were almost the cost of the lawn mower itself. When I took it in to the dealer they told me it could not be fixed. The problem was with the handlebars, they were broken in a few areas and loose. I had Ryan take a look at it and within minutes he had a creative idea. He ran to the hardware store to pick up parts, came back and had the lawn mower handle bars fixed within 15 minutes. I was literally going to throw the lawn mower out but thanks to Ryan it is as good as new.
    Since then he changed my motorcycle tires and tuned it up with a safety check. He remodeled my entrance closet and a number or other odds and end repairs and designs
    Good technical skills needed to be quality repairman in my eyes. Ryan not only fulfills this requirement, but he is also very creative and takes a lot of pride in his work.
  • Avatar Gwen Owen ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We were very pleased with Ryan and the help and services he provided. We found several additional problems before he got there and he either fixed or referred us. We have another appointment with him soon. He consulted with us on what we could purchase for other services we will ask him to do. Five star service..
  • Avatar Rich Tooley ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We've used Ryan for several projects now and he is professional, timely and does great work! He is easy to communicate with and very reliable. Ryan is also a creative problem solver and very trustworthy. We would recommend him to our friends and family!
  • Avatar Christine Floersch ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    The most efficient, hard working, dedicated craftsman/handy man/builder/fixer I have ever worked with!
    Ryan is literally the epitome of want you want in a worker. Focused, incredibly reliable, always on time, always in communication, resourceful and cognizant on budgets and the value of your dollars.
    It was like my home office / creative space remodel was his own in the way he approached ways to save money yet get the biggest bang for the buck and got it done in record time with beautiful execution and no short cuts...only because that’s his standards for himself.
    After this experience with Ryan and Fair and Square Repair, I’m not interested in the least of ever hiring anyone else out to work on my house....and already have future plans he’s automatically hired for.
    If you hire him, You will feel the same way too.
    Genuine, trustworthy, quality talent and as hard working as it gets..reminds me of how my Grandfather did business.
    Thank you, Ryan!! You’re a “breath of fresh air” gift to your clients in a industry that is often filled with lazy, unenthusiastic, wasteful workers.
    Without a doubt, hire this man for anything you need. You will never be disappointed.
  • Avatar CHRISTOPHER Kellett ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Do you want a professional contractor? Do you want a contractor who returns phone calls within a day? Do you want a contractor shows up on time? Do you want a contractor who does excellent work at a fair price?
    If so, Ryan at Fair and Square Repair is for you.
    I’ve dealt with so many contractors that don’t return calls, aren’t professional, don’t show up and don’t know what they’re doing.
    Ryan did an incredible shiplap project for me that gets nothing but compliments. I HIGHLY recommend Fair and Square Repair!
  • Avatar Jessica Bortoni ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan is a hardworking, talented and meticulous guy. He’s worked in different projects in our home and has great vision, knowledge and skills! He re-did our deck which was rotting, fixed a few doors that where not closing properly and always goes beyond expectations in a very timely matter. Very highly recommend.
  • Avatar Jay Doberstein ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Fair and Square is a "one stop shop". Our family has utilized Ryan's services for many projects over the years, and there's nothing he can't do! He is the most professional and honest guy out there, with the knack to tackle any project you can think of. Big or small, Ryan can do it all!
  • Avatar brenda chang ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan has been so responsive, prompt in providing guidance, thorough, extremely helpful and knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. He is our go-to guy!
  • Avatar rachel lecher ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan arrived on time with a can do attitude. My project was a bit challenging but nevertheless he was able to think outside the box and fix it. Very fair pricing as well. Would definitely use again!
  • Avatar Tinne Van Loon ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan is the best! We’ve been working on our home so have dealt with lots of contractors and handymen in the past few months and Ryan is by far the most professional, detail oriented, hard working and clean! We initially hired him to fix a very large hole in our drywall and he did a perfect job in record speed, we were so impressed with his professionalism that we hired him again and were happy to wait a few weeks before he could return to install our sump pump battery backup, fix our bathroom vents, install and correct the hanging of doors and closet doors. We wanted him to cut some holes in our shower surround that we’re installing ourselves and he was honest that he didn’t feel comfortable doing it at the risk of cracking the material, but was happy to lend us the tools to do it ourselves, which we did! He tries to buy all necessary supplies he needs before he shows up so you’re not paying him for running to get stuff, and he provides receipts for supplies and doesn’t upcharge them. He will be our go to handyman for years to come! You really get your money’s worth with him. So happy to have found him.

  • Avatar Hedy Tripp ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan is very professional, on time and transparent on the cost and types of materials that needed to be used. He is also creative and able to work with our visions = he made a lovely cat-patio on the side of our home - which is the talk of the neighborhood!

    Ryan is an amazing find!
    He is a very talented and creative thinker and problem solver. I contacted him about turning an old dresser into a vanity. He arrived promptly, listened to my plan and came up with brilliant ideas to implement!
    Really a pleasure to work with, he is a true craftsman and a professional!
  • Avatar Tessa Lambrecht ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Ryan is the BEST. He has so many skills and has been able to complete all my projects with expert level results for a very fair price. We've had Ryan paint our exterior doors, replace porch screens, patch our concrete driveway & repair kitchen cabinets. He is so responsive and prompt and is extremely detail oriented. He has treated all my projects with as much care as if he were doing them to his own home. I will continue to use Ryan for all my future projects - he's a rare find!
  • Avatar Sue Gruenhagen ★★★★★ 4 years ago
