Handy Tenants: Love 'Em or Hate 'Em?

I have a new tenant that works for a construction company.  He seems pretty laid back and easy going.  Has mentioned a few times about him taking care of this and that.  For example, he volunteered to hang a spice rack in the kitchen pantry that I have not had time yet to install. 

Is this a good idea or bad idea?  On one hand, I like that a tenant is self-sufficient and doesn't need me to come change a light bulb.  On the other hand, I don't want to set a precedent that he can start making general repairs at his own discretion.  Thoughts on this?
