"Eric B. did great work replacing ceiling drywall and painting it after electrical wires were run through the ceiling. In the best lighting, you would never know any work was done. Highly recommended!"

Neighborhoods We Work in Most
Holly Springs has grown faster than almost any town in Wake County, and the housing reflects it, a true mix of older established neighborhoods near downtown and newer master-planned communities along the southern corridors. Older homes in central Holly Springs (27540) often need wood-door refinishing, popcorn ceiling removal, drywall patching after settling, gutter repair, deck refinishing, and the small-but-skilled work that maturing homes accumulate. Newer master-planned communities in 12 Oaks, Sunset Ridge, Avalon, Bass Lake, Forest Springs, Holly Glen, Sunset Oaks, and Holly Pointe tend to call for HOA-friendly exterior maintenance, fresh interior paint, fixture upgrades, kitchen and bathroom updates, deck staining, and the build-out work that turns a builder-grade home into one that actually fits the family living in it.
Beyond the residential work, Holly Springs's commercial corridor along US-55 and the revitalized downtown district have a steady stream of small offices, retail spaces, restaurants, fitness studios, and medical buildings where we handle fixture work, partition installations, IT installations, ADA modifications, and general maintenance. We also serve the corporate corridor anchored by Seqirus, Novartis, and the other Holly Springs biotech employers.
We also regularly work in surrounding communities, Apex, Fuquay Varina, Cary, and the corridor between Holly Springs and Raleigh's RTP.

"Today I had Ace Handyman Services to do some repair work at my home. Ethan K. was the handyman who did the work for me. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He completed the job to my complete satisfaction. He sent me a text prior to his arrival, and arrived at the designated time. I hope to have him complete other work in the future."

Tell us what you need on the phone and we'll tell you the realistic earliest date.
What are your hours?

Are you licensed and insured?
We're fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, BBB-accredited, and backed by the Ace Hardware family of brands — over a century of trust since 1924. All our craftsmen are background-checked W-2 employees, not subcontractors. Our work is backed by a one-year workmanship warranty. North Carolina doesn't have a "handyman license", that credential doesn't exist in this state. Handyman services operate under the "handyman exception" for projects up to $40,000. Specialty trades (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) require their own licenses regardless of project size. If you're evaluating any handyman in North Carolina that claims to be "licensed," ask to see the actual license document, it could be a GC license or a specialty trade license, never a handyman license.
