Mr. Handyman of Newtown and Yardley — Local services in Newtown Township

We did a major renovation to our condo this past year and needed a single contractor with a variety of professional skills to accomplish a wide variety of tasks. We found that in Mr. Handyman that provided an amazing professional talent named Pat, and made it unnecessary to hire multiple vendors.
