  • Patrick W.I had a great experience working with Yabi! He installed a ceiling fan in our home, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. He arrived on time, was professional and courteous, and clearly knew what he was doing. The fan looks and works perfectly — no wobble, no noise, just clean and efficient work. I really appreciated how he took the time to make sure everything was safely installed and cleaned up after the job was done. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable handyman!
