Verde Handyman

I had hired Matthew for work in our bathrooms. My wife & I were very pleased with his work. Also, at that time, I was looking for a contractor to replace our 1000 sq ft rotting old deck. He & I got on that subject & I asked if he would be interested. He submitted a detailed proposal of what he'd do along with a timeline. It was very impressive. What was also a plus, he would take a credit card payment. I hired him. I told him I was in no big rush to complete the job as I knew it would take quite a bit of his time & I would be happy to work with his scheduling. The work was completed in reasonable time & the deck looks great. Everyone that has seen it has been impressed. Job well done. Matthew is in deed, a Very Good Handyman and I have in lined up for several jobs later this year. What is most important that I need to add: August/2017, I contacted Yavapai Contractors in Prescott asking for a list of contractors to do this deck job. I was provided with 1 name. I contacted him, he came to my home, took his measurements & I never heard from him. Secondly, several businesses from Flagstaff advertise in our local phone books that they do deck work but when I called them they all said they were either not doing deck work at this time or they didn't come to Sedona. I was also able to contact 2 local contractors. Each came to my home, took their measurements. One I never heard from again & the other (from what I learned from a close friend, sub-contracted his jobs with cheap labor & not good quality work). Personally I didn't get a good "read" when I met with this contactor especially when he told me his wife told him to "make lots of money" as he related to me.
