Mirror hung up on wall
Durrah K.

Hughie was extremely prompt in his response indicating his first availability accurately. We corresponded via Yelp and confirmed the appointment. On the day he updated me with his ETA so I knew when to expect him. Upon arrival he assessed the two tasks that required his help and got on with it. We had a mirror that needed to be put up and a protective plastic piece for the patio rails. His work is meticulous and thorough. Very pleased and his estimate was accurate. I fully recommend Hughie.

Everything went well. Hughie communicated well, arrived on time, and did the job with very little input from me. He replaced an old microwave with a new one.

Hughie was great. Honest, hard-working, and as handy as his name implies! Would recommend him to anyone, and will definitely use him again.

Gary was an absolute pleasure to work with! We've done other remodeling projects with different…read morecontractors, and Gary took the entire experience to a whole new level. He is incredibly talented... We honestly feel lucky we got to experience how he does business. He has set the bar so high that it's going to be hard to work with anyone else now. What made him different? Clear, consistent communication: Every evening, he gave us a recap of what was done that day and what to expect the following day and for the rest of the week. Updates during the day: He kept us in the loop while he was working (for example, letting us know when he was heading to Home Depot and when he expected to be back to finish a task). He's also just a genuinely kind and honest person. We had originally requested something very specific in our bathroom, and the tile crew made a small mistake. Gary caught it, called us that night to explain, and told us he would have his team redo it so it matched what we agreed on in our initial meeting....without us even asking. That level of integrity and pride in his work is rare. He remodeled our bathroom and bedroom, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Gary is now our go-to for anything construction-related. Gary is the best!

Gary Yegiazaryan is the owner of Quick Care Home Repair. He is a consummate professional and…read moreperfectionist at heart. His kind, compassionate, and generous nature is what sets him apart from others. He delivers the highest standard of excellence in service. This is one humane human being with extraordinary heart for his clients and provides exceptional, high level professional quality performance as well as customer service. His customer service skills are outstanding. I would suggest when you have the need for a home repair service, that you give Quick Care Home Repair a call because the results will be exceptional!

This Review is over due:…read more Dave and Avi were great. They answered all of our questions and made sure we knew what they were doing. They were putting the TV mount on an outside wall and made sure we understood that it could be difficult to find studs through the stucco. They even asked if we had the exterior paint incase we had to fill a pilot hole later and paint over it. It was a challenge to find the studs but they spent the time to make sure everything was done right and when finished everything looked great.

After contacting him on Yelp, I gave him my phone number for a phone consultation. He called the…read morefirst time at 10pm on a Thursday night without any heads up. I wasn't sure who it was because it was so late and the caller ID said "Pro TV Mounting Same Day..." I figured it was him because then he sent me a message on Yelp that night saying "I tried calling and no one answered". I messaged him to schedule a call at a time that was more reasonable. No answer. Then the same number called during a Sunday afternoon. I asked again to please just schedule the call. When I called at the scheduled time, he sounded almost half asleep on the phone (sorry I woke you up!) and I tried explaining clearly what was wrong with the issue and he said repeatedly, "why don't you just call the people who originally installed it". I mentioned I was unhappy with their work and wanted someone else. He clearly was unfamiliar with what was going on and didn't know basic terminology for installation of doors. Never asked for a guarantee, but I just wanted someone who had a more experienced and expert installation history. He then got upset when I indicated I wouldn't be using his services because he sounded like he didn't know what was going on for the project and I preferred not to pay $80 since all other handymen come to do an assessment for free so they can accurately set expectations for themselves and the customer and there isn't disappointment on either side. He literally started raising his voice on the phone because I was trying to ask his professional opinion and gather more info on what he thought was going on. Maybe he was having an off day because he seemed to get frustrated with what I thought were common questions. It seemed like he just wanted to get me off the phone and do the $80 in-person assessment. So the "phone consultation" part doesn't seem like a real thing. Again, I told him "no problem that's your policy and I appreciate your time" but I will go in a different direction Unprofessional and also seemed to have limited skills for certain simple jobs and really is focused on TV mounting or other things (I mean the phone number ID says Pro TV install"). Again, that's totally ok, but don't get upset when a customer would prefer a different option. And be careful! He then tried repeatedly harass and called me several times after now from a hidden number! He had to be reported to Yelp! It seems like this guy generally has good reviews, but this seemed very unusual and concerning. Just take a look at all the other 1-star reviews. They all talk about the SAME exact issues: calling at inappropriate times, rude/unprofessional, harassing calls, incorrect skills listed, (even being asleep, ha!), etc. There is a clear negative pattern here, but other people seemed to find benefit so up to you based your exact situation.

Daniel and Oren are awesome. I originally requested a Yelp project bid from another handyman and it…read moresent it to others for reply/estimates. From the start, they were articulate, responsive and gave me confidence in their abilities that no other vendor did. I had them come out to build a step on my patio and asked if they would be able to help secure some bricks in the yard. Not only did they do exactly what I asked but they went above and beyond to fix the other bricks to ensure it was more stable for my kiddos. We have them coming back on Wednesday to install a door for us because we have more confidence in them than ourselves They are so kind, professional, thorough, genuine and respectful to work with. If I could give them 10 out of 5 stars, I would. Highly highly recommend!

Within a week they were at my house getting the work done. Very reasonably priced, fast, clean and very respectful of your home and property. You can tell that they pride themselves on being the best in the business. I will definitely hire these brothers again for all my small tasks and any large projects I have set for the future. I highly recommend them to anyone. Bonus: they LOVE dogs and cared enough to make sure they were safe. (for anyone with dogs, you know the struggle of making sure your dogs don't run out during construction).
