John on P St NW: Marvin does beautiful work, is absolutely punctual and efficient, and offers competitive, fair pricing. We picked him for two interior-paint jobs, after interviewing several painters and contractors. With a serious, attentive manner, he’s well-spoken, and there’s no hard-sell. He was patient and gentle in thinking through our questions and concerns, and he offered honest solutions. He’s totally upfront, honest, and trustworthy.
Ilana from P St: Marvin Perdomo, who has done lots of work on our house. He’s good, reliable, and very nice. 202-679-8376

From Ljiljana on the Eckington listserv: My husband is an independent contractor and works as a handyman for many folks in the area (lots in Brookland and in Eckington). He specializes in kitchen and bathroom remodeling, but also does a lot of flooring, painting and any and all odd jobs for his customers. We are on 1st and Q Street so should be pretty easy to get him to stop by and look at what you need done.
