Awful. This guy…read moreseemed decent enough during an initial phone call. After a bit of back and forth by email, I was ready to move forward on a repair job but needed to make a couple small amendments in the services I requested. After asking him to make these amendments to the google docs estimate that he relies on and re-calculate his costs accordingly I presented him with a Living Social coupon that I purchased for his services. And that's when it begins: Larry didn't respond to me for weeks. I phoned him and emailed just to follow-up to see what was going on. After two weeks of stringing me along, he sent me an email with the exact same estimate as before, completely ignoring my previous request. Once again I ask him to amend it. After doing so, he has his staff write up a "contract" which again neglects to mention the amendments I requested . I email them about this and they finally send me a new document. But wait. The next day he phones me up and accuses me of having some kind of problem or grudge ("what the hell is wrong with you"), and "driving his staff crazy" - apparently by my refusal to sign a contract that is inaccurate and insisting that all contracted labor is written down. He proceeds to send me yet another copy of the contract (why?) but instead of trying to listen and understand what's going on, let alone recognizing his repeated failures to provide an updated and accurate written estimate, he continues to rave arrogantly at me and then hangs up before giving me a chance to respond ("I gotta go. I gotta go.. click"). WTF? I truly wish I had been aware of the previous yelp review that said: "BEWARE of this vendor. They don't seem to have much integrity and the owner himself is ok with sending a sarcastic response when I, as the customer, called them on it." I completely agree with that assessment. I don't know anything about his skill as a contractor but there seems to be a pattern with how he deals with customers. He gives the impression of an incompetent, small-minded and snarky individual who wastes people's time and lacks the most basic of communication skills. Living social refunded my money in light of this ridiculousness. Hopefully, these reviews will prompt him to reconsider how he conducts himself.

I consider myself lucky to find a fine, reliable, honest man, who does a good job! Joe re-installed…read morea fireplace screen, and replaced a ceiling fixture. We didn't know that the fixture could have fallen and injured someone, or damaged furniture, the way it was installed previously. He got the right materials, and did the work in a professional manner. I needed to coordinate with a tenant, and Joe came reliably, always as he promised. We were very pleased with his great work ethic, and his pricing. GOOD JOB! Thanks Joe!!

The wrong size window was delivered and I know from past experience that the usual response is: " You will need to get a right size replacement." Joe, however, was contracted to replace the broken window, and that is exactly what he did. Now, one cannot even tell that the replacement was the wrong size. Very well done. I will be using him again

He started work and only sent a subcontractor to do the work, claims he was there but never showed up until the very last day. His guys cut wires they shouldn't have and left me with no power. He claimed it wasn't included in the contract but shouldn't he have mentioned it when he noticed the roadblock if he was onsite and managing the project properly. They left a lot of things unfinished until I called him out on it and reluctantly tried to half-ass finish. He refused to reconnect the power and just threw up empty junction boxes. He is a liar, scumbag and just nasty!!!!!! I hate to do this but I need to warn people to stay away from this business.
