I'm updating my review to reply to the truly bizarre response I just received from the owner. There…read morewas no place in my review where I stated that I expected you to "drop everything" or to "risk everything" in order to complete the job. In fact, in my review I stated that all I asked for was the curtesy to let me know you'd decided you were no longer interested in the job. I left a voicemail, asking if you'd decided not to do it. It would not have required you to drop anything to take less than 30 seconds to reply to the text I had sent with the photos and say you were no longer interested. That would have demonstrated a level of professionalism and common courtesy that should be a cornerstone of your business. Instead, you decide to respond to this review three years later with a passive-aggressive reply that only serves to make you look incredibly unprofessional. No part of my review was unreasonable, and the resolution that I said I hoped for was completely fair. Sending a text message would not have endangered your life or your health, but it would have gone a long way to showing that you're a decent person who cares about doing right by people, even when you aren't going to take the job.

First of all, Chris answered the phone when I called, vs leaving messages for other handymen who…read morenever returned the call. He made the appointment for two days after I called him. He also called the day of the appointment to say they were on their way, and showed up on time. Chris and Lee both wore masks, as well as booties over their shoes. They installed a door handle and deadbolt to replace an outdated set, which of course was a size they don't make anymore, and the door was metal They drilled the hole out, taking care to put down a mat to catch the debris. They also vacuumed up afterward. Price was very reasonable, and when they say no job too small, they mean it. I would definitely call them again. Nice guys, too.

We had several bids from various contractors, but when Jack came over with his wife to evaluate our deck and rear wall to provide us with an estimate; my wife and I immediately knew Jack was our first choice. His friendly yet no nonsense approach made us feel as if he valued our business and that he would be honest about what we really needed. Considering the nature of covid, Jack made it a point to communicate any delays or changes that were necessary and worked hard to keep costs to a minimal. Our deck is approximately 25' off of the ground and sits on steel beams, yet Jack, Jim and Brad handled it as if they had been there before. The deck is beautiful! When they went to replace the T1-11 on our rear wall there was so much water damage that it had to be torn down to the studs. The damage was well beyond the scope of the initial job. They worked with us and made sure we had no worries through the process and worked hard to replace everything. Other contractors would have gouged us, but J & J kept it fair and affordable. Considering the nature and difficulty of the repairs and all of the unexpected work, J & J made it an exceptional experience. I highly recommend them!

Staining a new bay window can be a complicated job when you want to be real careful with the glass…read more I decided to have this job done professionally so it would be done right the first time. I contacted Pittsburgh Pro Painters a few weeks back with the project, sent a picture of the work needed done and soon afterwards got a price quote. The company advised me to visit a Sherwin Williams paint store to get Min Wax samples so I could color match what best would look good in my kitchen. I ended up selecting a red chestnut color to go with my medium cherry cabinets and a clear coat to go on top. The company agreed to purchase it for me at their discount which I would pay for and pass the savings on to me. On the day of the project, Pete the owner sent out Mark and Joe who would be doing the work. They arrived on time and were both friendly and very professional! The first day was prepping the area, sanding it and applying a coat of the Min Wax with a paintbrush. I was thrilled to find out that I wouldn't need to have a 2nd coat applied which would save me on the labor. They came back the next day to finish the job by applying two coats of clearcoat. The results are fantastic!! Before leaving they explained how to do any necessary touch ups with the remainder of my Min Wax and answered any other questions I had. Billing can be done on the spot or you can wait to invoice you. Cards and checks are accepted. I was very pleased with the work they did and definitely will hire them again for my future painting projects.

Tim arrived on time for the quote and gave us a VERY good price to do the most awful jobs in our house: all downstairs crown molding and ceilings, bookcases, dining room, living room and hallways. The pricing also includes the cost of the paint and supplies. We were quoted a week to complete the job and that's exactly how long it took. Tim was on time every single day and he cleaned up so nicely at the end of every work day. He was very professional. I have nothing bad to say because on top of his outstanding professionalism, he did a fantastic paint job on all the spaces.

I have been trying to re-stain my bedroom door for a while now and finally had to accept that…read morealthough I am good at a number of things in life, this was not one of them. I was sanding down the parts of the door that my dog had scratched, re-stained the entire door multiple times allowing lots of time between coats, and it just kept drying as a patchy, unsightly mess. It doesn't sound like much but it's on the main floor of my single-level house and I was embarrassed when people would visit and have to pass by it on the way to the restroom. I searched on Yelp, as I always do, for a professional to do this job and I really liked Josh talking about the mission of his company to provide for his son, along with his excellent reviews, so I reached out. He was super responsive and was able to provide me with a quote based on photos. His quote was based on a per hour rate which always concerns me a bit because you can get contractors taking advantage of that and artificially extending their time, but he gave me a range of expected hours and said the job would not go more than $350 regardless of how much time he spent. I appreciated that upfront approach and we agreed on a day for him to start. He came over two days to do the main part of the job and I could see why it took so long as he really did it properly, sanding the door down to the dry wood and starting from scratch, which obviously was my mistake and took a whole lot of time. He did the job very professionally, removing the door from the hinges and setting it up on stands in my garage. After the door was completely dry, he planned to stop by an extra time for just a couple of minutes to put it back on its hinges, and we encountered a problem where the door, which is very old, had come apart a bit at the edges from the sanding and wouldn't close once put back on. Josh was completely unwilling to accept this as an end result and took it off again to address the problem using wood glue and clamps. Including drying time, this resulted in a couple of extra visits to my home at no extra charge, simply because he wanted to make sure the job was worthy of his five-star reviews. I was impressed with his work and his work ethic, and he more than deserves that five-star review. I won't hesitate to hire him in the future. Thanks, Josh!
