    Let me start by repeating other reviews; the workmen do a fine job. That being said, the time management of this job was atrocious and I would not recommend this company. There were more competitive bids but I wanted to try this company to be our handyman service. I had work done in a rental unit, where an electrician cut through eleven pieces of drywall/plaster. The goal was to have the room fixed and painted before the tenant returned from vacation. The company owner and a supervisor came out to bid on the job. They turned the bid around in hours and said the job needed to be booked right away to guarantee the tight time frame. The first day, the worker arrived at 8:15, looks around and say he needed to go for supplies. I thought he was going back to his truck, but he left to go buy them. He returned at 10 and started working. About 2 pm, I asked him how he was going to get the painting all done and he says, "I will need to come back." I called the office to ask if I needed to block a second day right away and the woman on the phone says, "I guess so." The painter arrived on day two at 8:30. The room is 12'x9' and needed the ceiling, trim and walls paint. It took twelve hours! At 5 pm, when he indicated that he had several more hours to go, I called the office and the person indicated the worker was very thorough. He said I should also be glad the job was quoted as a flat price and not by the hour since it was more than they expected. I asked why they didn't put another painter on this and he said the holidays left them shorthanded. The only offer was to come back a third day so I stayed until 8 pm On top of that, they charged me $325 for supplies even though the owner estimated supplies would cost $111. The painter bought a gallon for the trim, a gallon of stain blocker and a two-gallon container of ceiling paint. (Reminder, this room is 12'x9'.) Since I was buying my own color for the walls, so they told me to buy two gallons. However, the painter showed up with three gallons for the walls, even though the estimate said I was buying my own. (Three gallons for one room and I had to pay for that.) When I called to have the cost of the supplies adjusted, they reduced the cost by $100 AND then asked to pick up the three unused gallons and the 2-gallon container of ceiling paint. And for the record, the ceiling peeled two days after they finished. I wrote the supervisor who did the bid and never heard back. A handyman service is about creating a trusted relationship. There are plenty of handyman companies to choose from. I would pass on this one..

    Work excellent. Went almost $200 over estimated price. Would not use them again for that reason.

    Responded very quickly and offered to come the same day, on a Saturday, no less, so we appreciated…read morethat. We needed curtains hung. I had started the job myself but got an anchor screw stuck and figured I should have a pro step in so I didn't wreck my new walls. All the supplies were here, placed where they needed to be, holes were measured and marked for custom made rods and drapes. He charges by the hour and moves very, very slow. He didn't have his own step ladder or anchor screws. In the first hour, he managed to put in 3 screws in holes that had already been marked. He claimed he "needed to remeasure" and that's why it took so long, but he used the holes that I had already marked. He also said it was too hard to do with custom cut rods. He also said it wasn't his fault because I had an anchor screw stuck in the wall already, which was the whole reason I hired him. This is what pros do: they come prepared, know the required materials and techniques, and advise the customer on the best way to proceed. I knew we needed to cut it off when he asked me how to use an anchor screw. He didn't know if you needed to pre-drill or not for a very basic and common anchor. I cannot imagine a professional handyman not knowing that. He used a level to stare at the pre-marked holes for what seemed like an eternity, just eating up time. 3 screws = $200. Seems like a nice enough man, but handyman may not be the profession for him, and that's giving him the benefit of the doubt that he wasn't just trying to take advantage of someone he assumed was too naive too know how long the job should take. He became very defensive, making excuses when I said we'd need to end the job at one hour. Im sure judging by other less than 5 star reviews here (that I really wish I'd have taken the time to read) he will post a very defensive response here as well. Please just don't take a job you don't have the required expertise to complete, and I don't want to hear defensive excuses when I'm still out $200 for almost no work completed.

    Had him hang about 8 paintings throughout the house. Very good, professional, responsive. Good…read morevalue for money spent.
