In short

What does a handyman handle in Marlboro?

Here: plumbing, electrical, carpentry, drywall, tile, painting and general repair in Marlboro, from a West Long Branch base. If the house went up in the 80s or 90s boom, say so — a lot of what fails here fails on the same schedule.

Local record

Three things on file about houses here

01

Built in three bursts, and they are ageing together

Median construction year in Marlboro is 1988, and the building activity came in clear waves: 1980–89, 1990–99 and 2000–09, with very little since 2010. A township built that way arrives at the same problems at the same time — original water heaters, original panels and original kitchens across whole streets reaching the end of their service life within a few years of each other.

02

The creek that floods Matawan starts here

Tributaries rising in Marlboro and Old Bridge meet in Freneau Woods Park to form the headwaters of Matawan Creek. Marlboro sits at the top of that system rather than the bottom of it, so the flooding exposure here is drainage and run-off on individual properties — grading, gutters, downspout runs and sump discharge — rather than the tidal surge the Bayshore towns downstream deal with.

03

Still a farm township in places

Marlboro was farmland that got built on through the second half of the twentieth century, and working farms remain inside the township boundary. The practical consequence is variety: dense late-century development along the Route 79 and Route 520 corridors, and older, more isolated properties on larger lots between them, which do not share services or drainage with their neighbours.

  • I’m so glad to have The Trusty Monmouth County Handyman out and repair my kitchen cabinets. The previous homeowner did not use the correct screws and even missed the studs on some of them. All secure and up to code now. He finished a little early and asked what else he could look at and cleaned out the tub drain too.

  • I called on The Trusty Monmouth County Handyman Services once again. This time I needed drywall repair. The texture that was applied to the ceilings during construction of this house — over time the texture started to release and some of it fell. I tried to repair this myself but had no luck. I’m not permitted to use ladders anymore since I have the tendency to fall off. That’s why I called the Handyman. He fixed all my texture that was falling. He also inspected the rest of my ceiling to check for any cracking so he could prevent another collapse. I have to tell you; this outfit is top notch.

  • After The Trusty Monmouth County Handyman completed the work that I had asked for, I actually needed them to come back out to remedy a problem that I noticed. To my surprise, no questions asked, they were here the next day to fix this final issue. I seriously cannot recommend Ron and his team enough. They are wonderful people, doing awesome work!

  • It was a good experience with The Trusty Monmouth County Handyman. I availed their electric and plumbing services. Charges were reasonable and they also offered a discount on the final invoice. The service I received was very good. Everything was explained succinctly and with a friendly manner.
