Once again after going through a few contractors and businesses. Alex was the most responsive and quick to help. I needed an exterior door replaced for my garage and my sliding patio door. I had purchased them and within a week Alex was there with his team to help me out. Within a few hours both doors were installed and in great working order. This is the second job Alex has done for my home and I will be reaching out again for future work. If you are looking for quality work at a great price then this is the business to go with. read more

He came prepared to do the job! Very nice and efficient. He took care to ensure none of our merchandise was affected by dust.

I called Oleksander at Alex Star Service for a fence repair after heavy winds damaged my fence. He was at the house with an estimate in an hour and began work the same day immediately after procuring the supplies. He bettered two other estimates. The repairs included replacing a a broken cedar gate post with treated lumber and replacing two capping boards that had blown off. I would call him again. read more

First off, thank god for yelp. This is where I found Alex to repair or replace my wood gate. He showed up when he said he would and if you read any of the other reviews then you guessed correctly there was a bit of a language barrier. Was it a problem? Heck no, google translate can help with any major language in the world. He left after inspecting my gate and I expected him to text me a quote for labor and materials. I thought he was not coming back and went for a jog. About an hour and a half after he left he shows back up at my house with all of the necessary material to do the job. Okay, so I'm thinking he is just dropping everything off; no he showed up to complete the job. He rebuilt my 6ft gate in a little over 2 hours! He is a damn hard worker that I would not hesitate to rehire. So yes, I highly recommend his quality workmanship. He stayed at my place till 11:20pm! read more

I'm happy that I found Alex Star Service by reading Yelp reviews. Truly a good experience. Alex responded shortly after receiving my inquiry and luckily he had an opening for the next day. My work was completed well within 24 hours from the time I reached out. That's pretty exceptional in today's environment. I had two wood gates rebuilt and work done on a door frame. Alex is hard working and delivered professional results on each piece he touched. The cost was well within what I'd budgeted for this work I was very satisfied across the board.. Alex Star Service will absolutely be the first company I reach out to for any future projects read more

Tl;dr Alex is great! Very friendly and collaborative in coming up with a fix, punctual and fast, and very reasonable prices! Would definitely work with Alex again! ===== We moved into a place where two of the bedroom doors couldn't close. One of them dragged on the ground at the bottom, and the other hit the doorframe at the top. I sent these photos over to Alex along with my description of the problem and he was extremely responsive and easy to work with to coordinate a time and estimated price range. On the day of the appointment he arrived right on time and got to work straight away. The initial fix wasn't what we had in mind, but he worked with our feedback well to get a fix that everyone was happy with in the end. Fixing both doors took him maybe an hour, and now both doors close super well! He even fixed the door stopper that was broken on one of them, and replaced some of the screws on the door hinges! His charge for the fix also ended up being lower than the initial estimated range, and it was very straightforward to pay him online. He was super prepared and had all sorts of tools with him, so we didn't have to wait a long time for him to go retrieve tools or materials or anything, which I've encountered with other contractors. I also really appreciate that he removed his shoes before coming into our home; I'm guessing he saw that we weren't wearing shoes and that all the shoes were by the door, but this was a very thoughtful gesture on his part that I didn't even have to ask him about, and I think it's representative of his kind personality and customer-focused work ethic. As far as nitpicks go, there was a small communication snafu where I had cleared a space for him to do some sanding, but he ended up doing it somewhere else. It wasn't a big deal, but I'd try to be clearer in my communication next time. He has a great translation app so more nuanced communication in person wasn't too difficult (and communication via message was seamless), but just something to keep in mind when communicating in person. read more

Alex is very professional. Showed up on time. Discussed merits of various ways to make the repairs. Pivoted, as necessary, and completed the work quickly and efficiently. Would use again. read more

High winds blew down part of my backyard fence, and another part of it already needed repair. Lots of people were in the same situation, and one highly reviewed company said it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get service. Instead, Alex was out the next morning, and fixed the fence, did a little necessary tree trimming, and made the fence stronger than before (with cement bases for the posts, and a few extra reinforcements). All done in the same day, at a price significantly less than the first company's estimate. Highly recommended. read more

The front leg of my 30yrs old chaise broke as it was being used last week. No one was hurt but it's a loved piece of furniture that I wanted fixed as soon as possible. Alex was a pleasure to work with. He fixed my chaise promptly, and treated my home with respect. There is a mentally disabled adult that lives in the home and was very distressed her chaise was broken, and he was nothing but kind and courteous. The price was competitive- far less than I was expecting and I would not hesitate to use him again. My only wish is that he had told me the price before arrival but that's fine. read more

We were overcharged for the work and no invoice or receipt for the parts that were purchased and when we asked for them. I will take accountability for not speaking up sooner but the time it took for the work that was performed, didn't add up. You live and you learn. read more

I was amazed at how quickly they were able to come out and. All of the things I needed done were completed and I done properly.

Came out quickly to inspect. Was very good at communicating. Did an excellent job. Price was in line with other estimates.

Alex was very prompt, provided a fair estimate, and did a good job repairing our fence.

Very responsive! He came out and fixed my front gate that wasn't closing. The first fix didn't hold, so I reached back out and he was back that same day to fix it again. He recognized the problem, and was able to adjust the fence so that the gate would latch. I appreciated his quick responses as well as his follow through. Definitely would hire again for repairs! read more

Great guy! Awesome work. We had a really bad diy bathtub caulk job and he cleared it and made it look like new!

He responded quickly and did a great job. I needed pictures hung, a mirror hung and a couple of small projects.

Got the job done in a great amount of time. The fix wasn't in the way I'd prefer, but the solution worked. Overall nothing to complain about and my sliding glass door works now. read more

Alex did a great job with my crown molding project. He was very prompt and stayed late to get it done.

Soght estimates for a due installation job, which were never given. Unprofessional and unresponsive communication

Great experience! Responded right away and came out to fix our back patio doors for a reasonable price. Definitely recommend!

I should have taken pictures before adding all of my stuff but Alex removed an overhead garage storage rack and installed shelves around the entire garage, including on the concrete wall. He took the time to measure my car to ensure that it would clear the shelves before getting started. He was flexible with his time, very reasonably priced, timely, neat, skilled, and so friendly! I will most definitely be contacting Alex for our next projects! read more

I had a misaligned breezeway door, which could not be locked. Alex came the same day. It took him 40 minutes to fix the door. Given the speed and quality of the service, the price was fair. I will certainly consider his services for my future needs. read more

He was quick to respond, came out and assessed what could work with great communication as we were trying a new product than we had but had me look over everything to be sure it was to my liking.

Oleksander from Alex Star Service is the BEST. He came out on short notice and helped repair a building front door and has it working better than it's worked in 25 years. His cost is definitely affordable, he was friendly and professional. I can't wait for something else in our building to break so that we can call him back again. You cannot go wrong with Alex Star Service. Thank you, Oleksander! read more

No result from Alex Star Service. The project was to repair a spring loaded mechanism that carries a screen door back and forth on a 1996 vintage Pella Patio door. Pella no longer supplies parts and so far Alex Star Service has been unsuccessful in finding a fix. Alex Star service asked why I rated his service 3 star. Had Alex Star service successfully repaired the mechanism, that success would earn 5 stars. As no success occurred, I could have rated the project a zero, but Olexsander was pleasant, went out of his way be helpful but could not find a fix or a workaround. 3 is better than zero. read more

So my shower door I thought was in need of replacement. In a panic I ran to yelp for recommendations. Alex came up first as he is local. Contacted him with pictures and descriptions. He said he could be there in an hour. Told him next day would be fine. I actually wound up fixing shower door (amazing what happens when wife is upset) and no longer needed him to repair it. I did however need a couple of other doors realigned .banged it out to perfection. Clean, courteous and professional. He will be back if I ever need anything done around the house. read more

Oleksandr was very responsive and easy to work with. He removed an old satellite dish along with the wiring and patched holes in the facade. I would hire him again for other maintenance work. read more

Alex was awesome! I initially needed help assembling a large shed, but we couldn't get started right away because I needed the nearby fence painted first. I was waiting on a painting contractor to get back to me. Alex told me he could paint the fence no problem and was able to come the next day to paint the fence and then assembled the shed. My old wooden fence looked better than ever with the 2 coats of paint and the shed came out great. Knocked out two big projects in a couple days. His prices were very competitive as well. I will be using him again in the future. read more

Oksander did a fabulous job and excellent communication. I hired him to fix my dining room extension table that was impossible to open.
