We hired Handyman Suffield, Enfield, and Coventry for a full bathroom remodel through a referral /…read morescreening platform. The experience taught me several important lessons. Although the handyman local company had many positive reviews, none were for a full remodel -- only small repairs or generic statements. The estimate provided was vague and didn't specify plumbing, electrical work, or wall/ceiling prep, which I now realize are essential when converting a shower to a bathtub. I assumed the daily labor rate covered what was needed to complete the job. By day four of a six day estimate, it was clear they weren't equipped for the job. No plumber had been scheduled, forcing me to hire a same day plumber at a very expensive rate. I paid directly for this charge $2800. Basic installation steps were missed until I pointed them out, wall prep was sloppy, and the new floor was cut unevenly with visible gaps. A worker even used my household garbage can as a cutting table. The owner insisted there were numerous changes that delayed the project. The estimate said any changes to scope would follow a formal process that was never invoked once. I thought except for a couple of changes the others were implied under general work statements like "install tub." I stopped the project with handyman and hired licensed professionals, whose workmanship was significantly better. I spent an additional $9,400 to finish and correct the work. We also disagreed with Handyman on the monies owed -- they insisted four days of labor were owed, even though the project was nowhere near 4/6 complete. They side my additional costs were not relevant to what I owed them. Takeaway: Match the scope of your project to the contractor's skill set. A full bathroom remodel requires licensed trades and a detailed estimate. Before starting, use an AI tool describing your project and it lead you through the critical points. Once you select a contractor ask the AI tool how good a fit the selection is.

I don't mind paying a good price for good work but Elliott charged a hefty price and gave below substandard work. My recommendation is to stay far, far, far away. I'm not sure why you're surprised by the review. Plain and simple I asked you to fix a problem you created that was not working. You denied responsibility and left me with a back feeding panel to my furnace which is extremely dangerous and walked off the job. I had to get another electrician out to fix your work and verify that the problem was something you created and in the meantime my house was pouring heat for three days before the other electrician could arrive. Also, I kept you aware over text and you really could care less.

Jermaine was professional, and prompt enough to show up, in person, and give me a quote of $300,…read morethe day I called, and inquired about having my ceiling repaired in my living room. I had some plumbing work done the week before, and the holes in the ceiling had started to become an eyesore to me, and I really wanted it fixed! I called on a Tuesday, and he said he'd be able to come out a couple of days (Thursday), and get started on the repair. He arrived in a timely manner, and had everything done within a couple of hours, which I was very happy with. Hence my giving him a credit of 2 stars. However after inspecting the actual work done on the ceiling, I thought it looked very shoddy and unprofessional. There was a clear indentation of where the work was done, and it was not the seamless finish I had envisioned. I told him that I wanted the entire ceiling area to look as blended as possible when he started the job, and he had told me that he could do that for me, for $300 . That's not what I saw! He reassured me that after the paint dried, everything would somewhat blend into the ceiling, and look more even. I told him I wasn't happy with the work, and asked if he'd come back and help me complete it. He agreed that he also didn't think the job was completed to his liking, so he agreed to come out on Saturday ( he wanted the paint to be given a chance to dry) I texted him on Friday evening to remind him about Saturday, and verify a time when he would be at my house. No response.. I tried texting him on Saturday, and I texted him mid week on Wednesday..I never heard from this person again. Even after reassuring me that he would've come back. He was not courteous and professional to follow up in any manner. Complete ghosting on his part! I do not recommend his services if you are looking for a professional who'd show up and complete the job in a manner that makes the client happy, because it's not sloppy! At this point, I need to find someone else to fix his terrible, botched workmanship. The ceiling continues to be a major eyesore to me.
