About
Dan and Arlene
Handymanish was started in 2021. Dan was approaching retirement from the LAFD, having been a firefighter and paramedic for 20 years, and he had spent a lifetime solving problems and serving people. Working on projects for his wife Arlene, an excellent decorator with a keen eye for detail, refined his home improvement and maintenance skills. Originally starting in Castaic, they have grown to serve the entire Santa Clarita Valley. The team is insured, with proper business licenses.
