The front office is great with scheduling and confirmations; the service staff is on time, knowledgeable, and shares the status of the system while on-site; they test and confirm each aspect of the central fire system and, of course, certify and label the central fire enclosure to be sure that our City is notified. Prices for annual service are reasonable. The service staff is very thorough. We've lived here for many years and gone through several of these services; we are lucky to have found First Choice Fire Protection. Highly recommended, A+++ on all parts of the service experience.

I'm honestly shocked this is the company our HOA chose. The invoice came out to $487.65 for a fire…read morealarm service call and heat detector replacement. I understand fire safety work costs money and I'm not expecting bargain bin pricing for life safety systems. But for that kind of charge, the work should at least look professional when they leave. That was not my experience. The technician came out, didn't appear prepared with the necessary parts, left to get what was needed, came back and the final installation still looked poorly seated and sloppy. The detector does not look cleanly installed against the ceiling, which is exactly the kind of detail that makes you question the care behind the work. Fire protection is not cosmetic. It is one of those trades where competence, preparation and finish matter. If you are charging a premium, the work should feel premium. This felt like an expensive service call followed by a rushed install. Maybe the system is technically working now. I hope it is. But as a customer, seeing nearly $500 billed for work that looks like this does not inspire confidence. I would not choose this company personally. UPDATE: Ryan contacted me personally after seeing this review and returned to inspect the heat detector. He corrected the installation and provided a 25% courtesy refund. I genuinely appreciate that he took ownership of the situation and followed through on his commitment to make things right. Accountability matters. Ryan was professional during the return visit, listened to my concerns without being defensive and made a sincere effort to resolve the issue. Because of that, I've updated my rating from one star to three stars. I'm leaving my original review intact because it accurately reflects my initial experience, but I also believe it's important to recognize when a company responds with professionalism and makes a good faith effort to earn back a customer's trust.

I highly recommend American Fire Protection Systems. When I had a pipe leak that turned out to be…read morethe sprinkler system pipe, they were the only ones who knew how to shut the water off. Golden State Water didn't call back until hours and hours after I reported a water leak emergency, and the regular plumber who came out (while a really excellent person) unfortunately didn't have the licensing or training on how to solve this. The team at AFPS hopped on a FaceTime call with me and talked me through locating and shutting off the water and open the drain valve to prevent further water damage. Afterwards, they were able to come out and fix the specialized pipe. Their price was reasonable, they had a positive attitude throughout, and even identified a problem with the build where it looks like the builder didn't put a nail plate in the stud to protect the pipe. They installed a nail plate at no added cost at their own expense. Overall, they solved what was a quickly growing disaster and I am very grateful for their support. Also, although I'm leaving a glowing review--they never asked for a review. They didn't offer freebies of any kind for a review like I've seen with some other businesses. These guys are the real deal and they'd be the first ones I'd call if I ever had a similar issue in the future. Thanks for your help, AFPS!

We highly recommend Pro Handyman Service!…read more I wanted to write this review because we had a request that, while not unique, wasn't that easily categorized under a common household repair category, so we decided we would look for a general handyman that would be able to do it all. We have a sliding barn door for a guest bathroom, and because there was a bit of a gap from the wall to the door, it wasn't very private for our guests, and there was also no latch on the barn door. It's a strange choice for a bathroom, but we also didn't have the budget to change the entire door. I reached out to a few pros to get their assessments, and Pro Handyman Service was not the cheapest option for this job, but they had great reviews and I appreciated that they gave me an upfront quote. The quote actually helped me to budget accordingly, and I didn't feel like there were going to be a bunch of hidden charges that I wouldn't be able to plan for. I also felt that Pro Handyman Service was easy to communicate with and they responded to my questions very quickly over Yelp messages. They are busy, by the way, so try to schedule early so you can get a time slot. Denis arrived at our home promptly and on time, and was very careful to keep the home clean by wearing booties to cover his shoes. He listened and reviewed the situation, then gave us several options based on his opinions and experience. For example, he said he could use either wood or plastic paneling to add a "privacy edge" to the sliding door, and we ultimately settled on wood for the sides and plastic for the top of the door. He had everything needed for the job and just needed to leave to purchase the wood paneling and returned promptly to do the install. He also painted and caulked the new wooden privacy edge on each side of the door. We had already purchased a latch, which he also installed while accommodating the added privacy edge to the door. Denis worked very quickly and efficiently, leaving no mess behind. As you can see from the photos, the installation looks quite neat and clean, and almost looks as if the door came that way. It was nice that he was able to cut the privacy edge to accommodate the baseboard, too. Overall, this was a very positive experience with Pro Handyman Service and we think you'll be pleased with them as well! Hopefully this review will be helpful to anyone else who is looking for someone who needs a handyman (and especially if they have a specific request that might be similar to ours)!

I had a very odd issue of an extremely shakey washing machine, which after several repair attempts led me to inspect the floor. Denis his colleague showed up to move the washer/dryer and inspect the floor, and determined it was not level (it was VERY uneven). Denis gave me several options for how to proceed. They took the time to show me the support frame under the floor and explain why it wasn't level, and what they could do to level it as much as possible. I had hired Pro Handyman Service to address the floor only, but after they were finished and placed everything back the way it was, Denis asked to see a wash cycle on the washing machine to see if the floor fixed the machine as well - it worked great, no more intense shaking! Highly recommend, and will definitely be using their services again in the future.
