ABOUT US
My journey is built on a foundation of craftsmanship, construction expertise, and a passion for problem-solving.
With a degree in Urban Planning from the Faculty of Architecture, I have always been inspired by the art and science of building. Since 2019, I’ve worked as a project manager on various residential and commercial construction projects, gaining hands-on experience across diverse fields and mastering industry standards
In 2020, I took a leap and started my own handyman business as The Handy Bee, combining my love for working with my hands and my dedication to delivering exceptional and reliable handyman services. Over the years, I’ve specialized in small repairs, furniture assembly, and mounting tasks—services my clients trust me for time and time again. My woodworking hobby also soon became an integral part of this journey, allowing me to create custom-built furniture and built-in cabinets tailored to my client's needs.
As of 2023, I’m proud to be a licensed and insured Residential Builder Contractor. My architectural background gives me a unique perspective, enabling me to approach each project with creativity, precision, and a deep understanding of the field.
At The Handy Bee, I’m committed to providing top-quality craftsmanship and personalized solutions for every project, big or small. Let’s build something amazing together!

CLIENT FEEDBACK

Pam M.
“Berk was so wonderful to work with on a laundry list of items I needed to take care of. He even made time to take care of some items that I hadn’t initially disclosed. From the initial conversation, to how kind and proactive he was, to even picking up supplies and being so thorough, clean and efficient; someone I can’t recommend enough and definitely will work with him on future projects!”
“Berk was responsive throughout the whole process. Because of this he was able to understand what I needed and what he needed to bring to get the job done. Safety and cleanliness were paramount to him. He talked to me during the entire installation so I knew what he was doing and why. 100% satisfied and would highly recommend him. I would use him again.

"Berk was a class act professional in not only installing new closet shelving unit for my parents. He also took down a wall panel, patched up holes and painted to ensure the adjustable closet shelves were secured to the wall properly. He did a thorough job and we are very pleased and thankful for Berk's expertise as a handyman. He was responsive, polite, came prepared with tools and respected my request to wear a mask and shoe booties when working inside our home. He is a top-notch professional and I would most definitely recommend him to my fellow neighbors in the NoVA area. Thank you Berk"

"He is super professional, a great listener and very accommodating. My project was about ten tasks (tv mounts, mirror and picture hangings, and barstool assembly). They all exceeded my expectations. He even found an eleventh opportunity and fixed it on the spot. I would absolutely recommend him for all your project needs."
"Berk is a do-it-all kind of guy. I hired him sight unseen and he went way, way out of the way to get the task right. He drove many miles with his personal vehicle to ensure he had the right part for the task. I couldn’t say enough good things about Berk and I sincerely hope you will consider using him"

"Berk went above and beyond everything I expected from him, in adding panels to our kitchen island. This job had a lot of tricky steps, but Berk was pro-active in measuring, planning, communicating, and sending ideas for how to accomplish our goal. The end result is beautiful, and my wife and I cannot be happier with the work he did!!"

"Berk is outstanding - a true professional. I would hire him again for any mounting, carpentry, or handyman job. Berk is detail-oriented and has all the tools necessary to complete those jobs with precision. He also respected the home and cleaned up after the job without asking. The 6-foot floating shelves he installed look great!"
