I came across Wertz Handyman Service through social media after seeing multiple people rave about…read moreboth the quality of work and the pricing. I had a small (but important) project at my house and knew I wanted to hire someone who was a legitimate, professional business -- not just a "guy with a truck." Think: licensed, insured, organized, and trustworthy. Adam Wertz checked all of those boxes and then some. From the very first interaction, Adam was incredibly responsive. He quickly scheduled a time to come out, take a look at the project, and provide a quote -- which he turned around just as quickly. His communication was clear, professional, and easy to follow every step of the way. One thing I especially appreciated was his use of a web-based system for quotes, scheduling, invoicing, and payment. It made the entire process seamless and super convenient -- no back-and-forth confusion, no chasing paperwork, just straightforward and efficient. Once I approved the quote, we got on the schedule, and Adam showed up right on time (which already puts him ahead of a lot of contractors I've worked with in the past). He got straight to work, no nonsense, and completed the project efficiently while still making sure everything was done right. Before wrapping up, he made sure I was happy with the finished result and even offered to come back if any issues popped up -- which speaks volumes about the kind of service he provides. It's not always easy to find someone you feel comfortable trusting to work on your home, but Adam absolutely earned that trust. I'm really glad I found Wertz Handyman Service and will definitely be using him again for future projects. If you're looking for someone reliable, professional, and easy to work with, this is it!

I recently organized for James Dougherty Home Improvements to install the new shingle roof on my…read moreparents' ranch house, and the entire experience was excellent. This is actually my second round working with their company--they previously completed a brand new rubber and new shingle roof combination for me, and they did such a great job that I had no hesitation calling them again. I asked my parents to observe the work and report back to me, and they were just as impressed. The workmanship on their new shingle roof was top-quality--the roof looks fantastic, and the care and attention to detail really show. They also made my parents feel completely comfortable throughout the process and went above and beyond to be kind and respectful. James was incredibly helpful every step of the way. He explained everything in simple, easy-to-understand terms, which made it easy for both me and my parents to follow along. Even our smallest questions were answered with patience, and I genuinely felt like we learned a lot from him. From start to finish, the project went smoothly, and the professionalism of the team gave all of us real peace of mind. We will absolutely be recommending James Dougherty Home Improvements to family, friends, and business contacts for their excellent service.

I first contacted James several years ago for a roof leak. He quickly identified the problem and…read morerepaired it. Eventually, the time came to get a new roof altogether and he quoted me a good price for a metal one. He and his team (Eric and Mike) installed a beautiful roof on our house with a matching roof on our backyard shed. They were very professional and conscientious about doing the job properly. He has also installed our new basement windows. I have recommended him to several friends and neighbors and they are all quite happy with his work. His talents are wide and varied; so he has pretty much become my "go to" guy for any project I can't handle. He is honest and straightforward. I strongly recommend him.

I hired FoxFix to repair some seams in the drywall in our condo. I liked Yevhenii (and his wife)…read morevery much when he came out and I felt like they'd do a great job. Indeed, they worked diligently and cleaned up each time they visited. The first round of work, both of them came; the second and third times, just Onya came to and she was super friendly and worked quietly while I worked in the office. I didn't paint the repairs immediately because of a lack of time, but once I did, I was disappointed with how the work turned out. I contacted Yevhenii again and sent him pictures. Communication was great and he came out to look and offered to either refund the money paid and for someone else to do the work or he (and his wife) would try again. I allowed them to come back and Onya worked for hours to redo most of the work. Again, carefully, quietly, and working with my schedule. Yevhenii came to check on things and also wanted to do some of the painting to see how the repairs looked. One area in one of the bathrooms looks pretty good but the kitchen and the other bathroom looks terrible, as evidenced by the pictures. I recontacted Yevhenii and he offered a $200 refund which I accepted. There was the original price of the job and, in consideration of the friendliness that the couple offered and the six visits they made, I felt was worth a $100 tip. In the end, I had drywall dust to clean up throughout the condo on multiple days and the results look amateurish. I'm still not sure why this is so hard to do and do reasonably well. I'm not looking for taj mahal-lile work but the pictures, I think, speak for themselves. I'm sure Yevhenii does great work, as evidenced by other positive reviews and pictures, but this project was a fail.

He came by to do an assessment, gave me a good best guess on how long it'd take, and set up a time to come back. I checked in with my wife to see how he was doing since I was at work, and she was very impressed by how much attention he was paying to little details and how diligent he was at getting things done quickly, but making sure they were done right. He's also a great guy with a great, friendly manner. Struggles a little with some more complicated or oddball English words and phrases, but his English was still very good and we had no trouble talking to each other. Great service, and he's our new go-to handyman.

We needed a new roof and a friend referred Husband's Helpers. I will start off by acknowledging my…read morehusband and I clearly didn't do our research and missed some serious red flags. That's on us and we learned an expensive lesson. But I want to write this review to warn others of our experience. All of these pictures were taken after they said the work was done. We initially agreed to shingling over our old shingles because this is what Ken recommended since it's cheaper. We signed a contract (which I felt he really pushed us to do when we first met in person). But this didn't sit right with me, and after doing some research I reached out and said we'd rather this be a full tear and replacement. We never signed a new contract, so we never discussed flashing (I now know this is a red flag). I'll admit I just assumed that when you're paying $12,500 to replace a roof, this would include new flashing. You can see in the pictures I've attached that they did not replace the old flashing, and instead nailed it in between the new shingles even though it stuck out past the shingle on top of it since the old flashing was installed with a different shaped shingle. Based on my research, this violates Pennsylvania construction code because these shingles can't properly seal to each other. Ken's proposed fix was installing "beauty" shingles on top of the original work, also pictured. When we didn't like this option, he suggested painting the metal flashing to help it blend in. He never recommended a repair to bring this up to code. I had to do the homework and research PA's roofing codes and GAF's shingle installation instructions to show him this is just wrong. Also pictured are our valleys, which were installed overlapped in the wrong direction making this a huge weak spot for leaks. They're also crooked and for some reason they decided to add these lines of sealant? Upon further inspection, another roofer noticed they used a different color shingle for part of our roof, didn't rip the adhesive strip off of a few shingles (that we noticed), and caulked the vent cap (which is already starting to come off). To add insult to injury, we were charged for a 2,000 sq ft roof and our roofing inspector said our roof isn't actually this big. Unfortunately, we originally thought this roof was repairable and agreed to call it a day if Ken refunded us $3,000. Because we understandably didn't trust him or his crew to make it right. But as another roofer began repairs, it became clear that so much was done incorrectly that we need a full replacement. Another frustrating aspect of this is we told Ken multiple times we were in no rush for a replacement because our old roof wasn't leaking. And when we changed our minds to a full replacement, we said it's ok if we're bumped back behind other clients because we understand this is more work. He claimed it should only take his small crew 4-5 days, which turned into almost 2 weeks. And then when we were arguing about the quality of the finished roof, he said they had to rush since we changed our minds. We did not rush him. Oh, and they left a lot of nails but that's the least of our problems right now. Ken said the shingles have a 25 year warranty. We later learned this is only true if the roofer installing them is certified by GAF. He's not. And even if he was and we tried to file a claim, it would be denied if this roof isn't up to code. Finally, I posted my original review on Google and Facebook about 3 weeks ago. Within hours of posting, Ken texted me saying he'd get his attorney involved unless I took these reviews down. To date I've received nothing from any attorneys. I find it interesting that publicly and privately he emphasizes legal/contractual matters while never defending his workmanship pictured in my review. We've had 3 roofing companies inspect our roof and they all agree that over half of the roof needs repaired based only on what they can see. All of them cautioned the repair work would possibly be greater once they ripped up shingles based on how botched the visible work is. One roofer noticed the base layer of shingles on our roof is actually a different kind of shingle installed upside down. To add insult to injury, we were quoted as having a 2,000 sq ft roof but the roofers confirmed our roof is actually about 1,600 ft. We've signed a contract with a different company to have our roof completely replaced. What a nightmare.
