Exterior door replacement on my 95 year old home. The blue of course is the before. Old wood door that suffered from water damage due to rain penetration. Fritz gave me the best options after coming out and taking a look at it. Not only was he thorough, but he thought of the best and most cost efficient way to replace the door. He also installed a PVC extended trim/lip to reduce the elements penetrating the new door and suggested a brand of paint that works best. I highly recommend Fritz! I will be using him again for other projects. Mind you I work with vendors and contractors daily due to working in Property Management. Thanks Fritz! read more

Have used Fritz more than once. Always excellent work at a good price. Latest job was repairing my storage shed and split raí fence. Both things were completed better than I thought possible. The old shed likes better than ever. Fritz is a perfectionist who doesn't just do a job he completes each job perfectly. read more

Did an excellent job on a difficult task. Took his time and did it perfectly. Replacing a rotting exterior saddle on a 50 year old house. I certainly would use Fritz if I have other Jobs. read more

Fritz is a wonderful all-around handyman. We have used him for two separate jobs and his work is impeccable. His knowledge for what to use and how to apply it for endurance as well as appearance is invaluable and makes his services an incredible value. As an added plus, he is low key, works with you and your concerns and is completely self-sufficient. How do you not love that? We had an open air structure that hadn't been built properly. It was open to the elements and covered in cracked parging that had crumbled over the years. Fritz created outlets for drainage and came up with a cost effective way to cover up the unsightly cracking while at the same time creating a water-proof barrier. There were a number of other equally important details he attended to, so nothing escapes his attention and it's clear he thinks through each problem to guard against future issues. In short, he's as thorough as you would be if you had the know-how and the can-do. But few of us are and, even if you were, you might not be as methodical. I couldn't recommend Fritz more. read more

I reached out to On The Fritz on a Sunday afternoon regarding a chimney inspection and report service. To my surprise, Mr. Fritz reached out within minutes and could schedule me in next day. On the day of the service, Mr. Fritz arrived on time and completed the service as expected and even helped give recommendations for a second fireplace in the home. Thank you for the prompt response and good service. Quick. Simple. Would recommend! read more

Fritz did a wonderful job on my siding. He went above and beyond to repair everything. I'll definitely use him again. Highly Recommended.

Can't say enough about Fritz. I messaged him on a Monday and he was at my house by Tuesday morning.

Will use him again. read more

I found Fritz on Yelp when I was searching for some chimney work and saw that he could do many things, so decided to ask him about a bunch of home repairs on my list. I send him the items to do or consider, with accompanying pictures. I had a previous estimate from a chimney cleaning company who had recommended some expensive waterproofing in addition to the chimney cap repair and after inspection, Fritz said that since there was no evidence of water intrusion or efflorescence in this decades old chimney, so the waterproofing was not necessary. He then spent two days working on all my projects - masonry work on the chimney cap, fixing the double hung window that would not stay up, secured two shaky railings, impeccable ceiling drywall repair on some water damage that had come from the bathroom above, and figured out why my ceiling fan did not work. He also replaced old light switches for me with the modern decora style switches. He is a good problem solver, and worked solidly while he was here without taking a break for lunch. I appreciated that he put up a dust containment wall around the drywall repair area to protect the rest of the house. He will tell you straight out what he cannot do which is also good. I would definitely hire him again as a "can-do" and trusted handyman. read more

Fritz is excellent. Did a very good job fixing several doors. He is reliable, knows how to fix things, efficient and friendly

We've had a ceiling leak that we thought was coming from our roof, but it was actually from our chimney. I contacted Fritz and set up an appointment to check out the issue right away. He was able to assess the damage and offer solutions (powerwashing the chimney to look all new, sealing the crown, tuckpointing the brick, parging the lintel in the fireplace, and cleaning the chimney) and provided a fair estimate on the spot. He even came out a few days later and completed the job beautifully in about 6 hours straight. Fritz is super friendly, knowledgeable, trustworthy, efficient, cleans up after his work, affordable, and prompt! Wish I could give him 6 stars! I highly recommend him. read more

Fritz was amazing. I emailed him late last night and he responded with in minutes. He was able to come the next day and was even early!!! My chimney was smoking in the house so fritz inspected it. It was pretty clean but he dig deeper into the issue and found the root cause of it. He went out of his way to not only clean the chimney but also the mesh wiring around the top of it and replaced it. Fritz thank you so much again and will see you next year for Maintence. And as always thank you so much for your service Angela & Chris read more

Wanted to replace the 25+ year old lattice under porch with white vinyl. I included pictures when I requested a quote. Fritz was quick to respond. We talked on the phone so he had a good understanding of the project. I wanted a certain type of lattice and a new door. He adjusted his quote and we agreed on the price. He started the project on time, was always there when he promised, kept a clean and tidy work space. He was very skilled in rebuilding the framework, door and installing the new lattice. He hauled away all the trash and finished the job on time. See the amazing before and after pictures. I would hire On The Fritz again for future projects. read more

I am a property manager and Fritz did an amazing job on one of my properties mailboxes that had been hit by a car and was in need of replacement. He was so courteous and charged me a reasonable price for the job. I was having a hard time finding someone who would replace the mailbox at a fair price. They wanted to charge me a super high price to put the broken mailbox back in the ground and still charge me extra for concrete or any other parts they had to use. Seriously!!! Thank goodness I found Fritiz. I read his reviews and they did not lie. Fritz went out to the property and took pictures of the mailbox and told me exactly what needed to be done. Fritz was also able to give me the estimate and do the work all in the same day. He replaced the entire mailbox and sent me pictures of the completed job and took measurements to show the mailbox met the USPS height requirement. He was also easy to pay where alot of other people I contacted on Yelp did not take credit card payments. I would definitely recommend Fritz to anyone looking for a person to do work around their home. This guy is great and knows what he is doing!!!!! Thanks again Fritz for helping me out. read more

The owner was very helpful and responsive, and he was able to explain the scope of the problem I was having with my concrete steps. I very much appreciated that he actually got back to me, which appears to be an issue with some repair services. read more

Fritz's quality of workmanship is excellent and far exceeds the quality of most contractors today. He is meticulous, pays attention to details and most important of all, he's reliable. His estimates are reasonable and fair for the work involved. I have had three bathroom projects completed by him and everything exceeded my expectations. I intend to continue to use him in the future for other work. read more

We reached out to Fritz to go out to one of our properties to provide an estimate for deck repair. He accepted the job to go out advised the days he would be in the area. We connected with our tenant to arrange for them to be available and make sure their animals were secure. We reached out to Fritz after he was supposed to have gone by. He didn't have any idea who we were and then advised he did not work with Third Parties and hung up the phone very rudely. No apology given. Not very professional at all. read more

I found Fritz on Yelp and emailed him. Almost all of our communication was via email (my choice due to work schedule) and he always responded very promptly. He gave a very reasonable estimate for repairing my cement front steps. The steps look great! Not patched, nicely refinished. Fritz was very accommodating - he sent the estimate, invoice, and photo of finished work all via email, and we spoke on the phone to finish the payment. I definitely recommend working with Fritz, and I'll be contacting him again for future work! read more

Fabulous work, on time, on budget, super nice guy that works quickly and cleans up- what more can you ask for? Seriously, the Fritz is a very nice guy that gets down to work quickly and doesn't stop. Both my husband and I were so impressed we immediately began adding to the to- do list. From wall repair, plastering and painting. To building a fence in the backyard DURING the snow ( I offered for him to come back on a warmer day) Quality of work is great - our walls never looked better read more

Update: We had Fritz return to do the Chimney repairs he outlined in the inspection plus other fixes throughout the house including a lot of sticky windows, doors, etc. He was extremely patient with all my questions and wherever possible he taught me how to do the fixes myself - the mark of a true professional, not just someone out to squeeze a quick buck. We've been really happy with all of his work even weeks later. I really think there's no issue he can't help with! read more

We needed our exterior shutters repaired. Fritz was Professional, had fair pricing and scheduled fix in a timely manner.

He replaced some kitchen cabinet hinges which required him to look at and then order (German made hinges). Once order in, replace old hinges with new and now cabinet doors stay shut and work fine. Went all out to do a good job. Would hire again. read more

I have had a few tattoos done at Rick's. All by artists who are already gone now. One was awful. Had to have it covered. However, I had the absolute best experience this past weekend and got a wonderful tattoo that I am very pleased with. Tara was my artist. She took the time to listen to my idea and then drew it up. I got to come by and see it a week before my appointment to approve it and she ended up having an opening for the next day so she offered it to me. I was psyched because she is very good so she is very busy and it sped up my wait time. The drawing was just what I wanted and the tattoo turned out better than I had hoped. She was very personable and talked with me throughout the application of my tat. I couldn't be happier. I won't go to any other artist again if I get another tattoo. I 100% recommend her! Again that is Tara at Rick's....can't say enough good about her or my experience. Thanks Tara!! read more

This guy is the real deal! A veteran with a huge variety of skills, Fritz is charming, efficient, fair and extremely competent. I had to tell everyone.... read more

Fritz just did a remodel of my kids bathroom and he is THE BEST handyman/contractor I have ever worked with. He has all the qualities one would want in a contractor...he is competent, punctual, helpful, reliable, honest and best of all, fair in his pricing. His work is excellent and his slogan "If you want it I can build it" is most likely true from what I could see from some past projects. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone and plan to use him to update my master bath in the future. You'd be crazy to use anyone else! read more

Fritz was the only person who was able to fix our storm door properly (it kept swelling with the heat and wouldn't fit into the door frame). We had the installers out a couple times - and they were worthless! We're putting together a list of things that we need done around the house and we're calling Fritz again. You should call him too! read more
