I had a leaky bathroom faucet that I knew from previous handypersons that had "fixed" it that it was a gasket inside the faucet. Daniel came and left at least twice to "get the proper parts" or "tools." I explained what the issue was before he arrived. At one point, I walked into the bathroom and saw him on his phone, not fixing anything. He also opened the faucet that I didn't have an issue with, which now leaks. There is a permanent footprint that I still have not been able to get out of the tub and looking over my invoice I paid $60 for a rubber gasket and $285 dollars for a 3 hour job that should have only taken a half an hour max. At the time I was thankful that they came so quickly so I didn't say much but now I am having another issue and decided to check reviews to see if they would be able to do the job, or if my experience was a fluke, but see that others have had the same issue with extended job times, faulty work and missing tools/parts that create the need for larger charges. I think I will have to pass on hiring again. It also made it hard to give this review because they were both friendly but I have to question the professionalism.

Third job was terrible. Moved a couple of smoke alarms in living room, and spackled minor holes--charged $500, spent morning partly chatting and standing around. I could have done it in under two hours, but I am bedridden now. I contested the charge but was told "my dad makes all the decisions, I just do the jobs," and "we have a lot of general expenses" (in 2024). No recourse to ridiculous price.

If your looking for a reliable paint company, I highly recommend Larry and his team at Straight Edge Painting.

I waited years to post this review to see if I would feel better about it. I do not. Blaine Jr comes through and does a long winded presentation that makes you feel like the company will be professional. I needed my sunroom roof redone since it was leaking. In actuality, the whole sunroom probably needed to be replaced. The sunroom was switched from glass to plastic per my request. He told me during our long meeting that I would be able to discuss it more when the crew came in. I came home and they had already started and no discussion was had with me about anything. I figured they knew what they were doing so I just went with it. The next day I came home and there was double the amount of support beams that blocked out a good amount of sun. I found this odd as the plastic is significantly lighter than the glass that was previously there. I feel like he forgot he was using plastic and planned it for the glass. I paid for more wood that wasn't needed and the sunroom does not look as good with all the extra beams. It also started to leak within a couple months again and the crew had to come back out and fix it. They changed it up a little and added weather strip that looks forever to come in. I'm a few years out now and the sunroom is leaking again and every time I look at how many beams there are up there I'm upset again about the whole thing. I should have waited and replaced the entire sunroom and gone with someone else. On top of it, I felt like Blaine Jr was dismissive, condescending, and kind of a know it all. I had to request to not speak to him anymore and did all ongoing discussions with the lead instead. On a side note... the crew was very nice and did their best.

I highly recommend Josh Backman, proprietor of Northern Humboldt Builder. Not only does he do…read moreexcellent, conscientious work, but he shows up when he says he will, and responds promptly when contacted. This spring (2024), Josh "refreshed" my kitchen (a mini-remodel), meticulously refinishing the cabinets (not an easy job when they're still in place) and installing the tile backsplashes himself. He coordinated with the specialists who created and installed the new cabinet doors, countertops, and flooring. During the process, he would double-check with me to see if the work met with my approval. He did all the "finish" work of reinstalling the sink, lights, and electrical plugs, and doing patchwork on the plaster where needed. He was prepared to paint, but that was something I chose to do myself. I am so pleased with the results. Josh was careful to prevent sanding dust from getting into the rest of the house, and tidied up after each day's work. He cheerfully accepted some change order tasks that popped up during the kitchen work, such as repairing my nearly 20 year-old on-demand water heater that started leaking. That job took a few tries, so he returned a couple of times when he had a moment to replace yet another aging O-ring. If his repair work didn't work, he was prepared to replace the water heater with a new unit as soon as he was able. Although a remodel is never cheap, I thought that Josh's price was more than fair, especially in these days of high inflation. I am sure there are other fine contractors in the area, but Josh's combination of excellent work, reliability, and positive attitude place him at the top of my list. I recommend that more people hire him and treat him well, so he stays in the area a good long time.
