My name is Will and my family is my whole world. I've always prided myself on being able to take care of things around the house, but as the years went by and our family grew, I knew I had to innovate. I found myself coming up with custom solutions to make more space in our home for four growing children.
As things break, I put them back together. As my friends and family began to purchase homes and have children, I found myself helping them with their projects as well. My father is a master carpenter and this type of work is in my blood.
I take great pride in coming into someone's home and bringing a smile to their face by charging them what I would want to pay, doing the job right the first time, and running a job the way I would want it done in my family's home.Contact us for a free estimate! I can usually give you a ballpark cost once I know what you're looking for.

What a fun project! We were asked if we could build a walk-in pantry and push the back out to the underside of the stairwell. With a bit of re-framing, we told them it would be a bit low, but 100% possible. We reduced the depth of the original closet on the other side, framed everything in, and then built some simple shelving at the clients' request.

Nice guy but not relyable. I contacted a local handyman to fix our window with broken pulleys. He installed them but never came back to twist the pulleys so that the window can stay up. I had to do it my self after repetitive messages asking when he would be back and received no answers. I asked him to give me back at least half of what we paid. We paid $95 the first time around and $95 the second time. It looked like it was fix when he left the second time around. After that he went MIA. Contact him at your own risk, stay safe!

Will Kornfeld, the Lake Forest Handyman, is a treasure! Whether it is a big job, or a list of smaller ones, he devotes the same attention and care and will treat your home as if it were his own. Will helped us to get our home ready to sell and then helped us to make our new home uniquely ours, by updating the laundry room, hanging drapes, fixing the plumbing in the shower, building a beautiful wine rack, and countless other projects. In the process, he became a cherished friend of our family. He is honest and will look for the most economical way to complete a job without shortcuts because affordability

Will is super-congenial, works quickly, and doesn't mess around. I hired him to replace a couple walls and a good portion of my floor due to a burst pipe. My biggest concern was finding the same laminate (so we didn't have to replace the ENTIRE floor) - which he did, even though they were based in Europe. (Thank you, contractor who sourced that originally...) And then he did such a good job of saving some of the undamaged board, that we ended up with extra!

Will does fantastic work! He redid the light fixture in one of our bathrooms, going from old Fluorescent tube lighting to canned lighting with an additional light added to our shower. He drywall the ceiling and matched the texture perfectly to the rest of the ceiling!
We also had him install a ceiling fan from scratch. Will had to do all the wiring and installed a control switch to run the fan/lights. The drywall cutting was minimal and the patch work is completely unnoticeable!
Highly recommend his work and will have him back at our place for other projects!
