They came out to help service our dish washer because it was not working correctly. It took them not time at all to fix the job and he refused to take any money for the job. It was great to see someone that didn't try to over charge for a service that could be easily handled.

I saw the deal online and I called the company before I purchased the BD and they assured me they service my area. Then I went ahead & purchased the deal. I then called to schedule the appointment and spoke to who I believe was the owner with the last name Santore. I made an appointment for the next morning and I gave him my address. I just received a call from the provider it was a girl. She said they cannot come out because they do not service my area. I mentioned the two guys I previously spoke to saying that they do service my area. She sounded indignant and said there are no guys that ever answer the phones, they only had two girls. I told her I remember specifically that I spoke to a man with the last name Santore. I am a pretty prudent person and before I purchase any Big Deal I call to make sure they can do the project and service my area. I verified twice that they had my address for service. I found this to be very strange and confusing. We did not get services done and requested a refund.
Description of Work: Purchased the Big Deal 139 for a Drain Cleaning, Hot Water Heater Flush & More.

After I subnitted a negative report about the Action Services Handyman not showing up to fix the thermostat he installed and keeping my lederly mother waiting an entire day in the cold, I called the company and they agreed to send out a heating expert at no charge. The heating guy actually came an hour early. He said the problem was in the furnace and it would cost $1600 to replace what he said was a burnt out sensor. He got it to come back on, but we told him we would wait until be got a couple of other estimates before spending that much. I think the price was pretty high for a senor part in a wall furnace. Also, I think the handyman should have test the thermostat a couple of times before leaving so that my mom would not have had to spend two nights in the cold. Once the heating guy made his temporary fix the furnace would not turn off, so mom call the gas company and they came out on an emergency call on Thanksgiving morning to check out the furnace. GOD bless them! The Gas company guy adjusted the furnace and he said he did not see anything wrong with it. It now works and the thermostat turns off and on. The best part is my senior citizen mom did not have to pay $1600 to get her heat during this winter cold spell.
Description of Work: This was a follow-up service visit. The company sent a heating expert to inspect both the new thermostat their handyman had installed two days prior (it stopped working the same day), and the furnace. He diagnosed that the thermostat was going in and out because a sensor was burnt out in the furnace. He was able to get the thermostat working again, but he said it was onl temporary.

Response from Action Services Inc
It is still in our professional opinion that the heater needs to be replaced and that it will give future problems. As you could see the heater would turn on and off and it had nothing to do with the original installation of the thermostat.

I originally ranked this company handyman's service an "A" across the board, even though he brought a 5 ft. ladder to change the bulbs on the 12 ft. ceiling. I told the company the ceiling height a week in advance. However, he was very patient and polite with my mom and he did a good job on her small jobs. However, the new thermostat he installed stopped working later that same night. She called the company three times the following day asking for someone to please come back to fix the thermostat, and saying she was cold. It is winter! They kept saying the handyman was on his way or he would be there within an hour. Finally, they said he would be there between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. He never showed up! When mom called back at 5 p.m. the company was closed and no one had the courtesy to call her to explain apologize or make an appointment to get someone out the next day. It is unconscionable that the Action Services Company left a frail senior citizen without heat overnight, and lied to her all day after they had been paid. I can not believe that the company only has one handyman in the entire company and no one takes responsibility for faulty workmanship. I only hope that they have some grain of human decency and send someone out to repair the thermostat before Thanksgiving.
Description of Work: The company sent a Handyman to my mother's (big deal gift purchase) to repair several small jobs including replacing a furnace thermostat, installing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, replacing light bulbs on a 12 foot ceiling, stucco and concrete patching, and carpentry work.

Response from Action Services Inc
As you know, we were "A" rated originally. We pride in doing good workmanship. When our Handyman arrived on-site, he was told that the heater would ocassionally turn on and off and that was the reason the customer wanted to get the thermostat changed. He tested and worked at the moment he was there. When we were notified that the heater was no longer working, we dispatched our handyman to go back out there and check the problem. We told the customer that it was possible that the thermostat was not the issue and the heater itself might be faulty. Our mistake was that our handyman did not show up, and for that we apologize for any inconvenience. Next day when we were notified our handyman was a no show, we sent out our best tech to take a look at the issue at no charge. The job that we went out to do was done at the customers satisfaction and the only issue has been a faulty heater.

I purchased a "Big Deal" on 11/10/2011 for a kitchen faucet replacement by Action Services Inc. for $89. This was my experience. 1) I called to make an appointment and the receptionist was very polite, energetic and made a service appt for the next day between 8 and 12noon on 11/17/2011. I was not told that another phone call was going to be made to confirm our appointment. 2) I was home all day taking care of my 2 month old twins and was by myself with them from 8:30-10:30. 3) My wife came home an answered my ringing telephone and found Action services on the phone apparently very upset that I had not picked up my telephone. Per my wife the woman on the phone was very rude. The re-scheduled for between 1pm and 4pm. 4) A service man arrived and began installing my kitchen faucet. 5) I was told that the job could not be completed and that a piece of pipe that I had never heard of would need to be replaced and it would cost $89.00 extra. 6) I asked why it needed to be replaced and specifically asked if something was broken. 7) I was told that the two connections from the wall water supply to the faucet were different sizes and the plumber only had a connector for one of these. He told me that with the supplies that he had on hand he could replace the water supply piece from the wall but it would cost $89.00 for parts and labor. 8) I asked why he couldn't buy the connector piece that he used on the other connection (approximately $5.00). I was told that it would take too much time. 9) I told him I would do it myself.10) He had me fill out a photocopied angie's list review while he stood next to me (not an unbiased way to review a company). 10) He then stated that he didn't like to leave a job without checking for leaks. 11) Then he left. 12) I bought and installed the connector myself without any leaks ($4.50). The connection that the plumber installed leaked and I had to return to the hardware store to fix it myself (another $4.50)
Description of Work: Removed broken kitchen faucet and attempted to install a new one.

The plumber was courteous. First thing out of his mouth after I showed him the toilet was "What exactly are you expecting from this visit?". He then explained that the coupon wasn't clearly worded. He was nice, fast and friendly but I would never recommend a dishonest company or use them again.
Description of Work: Do NOT buy their "Big Deal". Bait and Switch. I am very unhappy with Angie's List for allowing this company to offer a $35 coupon for a Plumbing Service Call when that's not what the company will give you. What it really is... You give them $35, they will come by and give you an estimate of what they will charge you. Then you may apply your "coupon" (really this is your own money) to the repair you hire them for. So what is the BIG deal? There is none. What would have cost me $65 from another plumber - cost me $125. I bought the big deal ($35) last weekend after I got a quote of $65 from another service. I had a running toilet, already bought the parts, drained the toilet, etc.. but couldn't get the old parts off so I thought I'd call in a plumber to help. I phoned on Monday, told the phone rep that I purchased a coupon, explained what they were going to repair and I was able to book a time for Wednesday with an 8-12pm. He showed up at 1105am and gave me the news. The coupon is only good for an "estimate" of work. I could apply it towards any job I hired them for. THIS is the part you need to pay attention to: You either hire them or lose your money. As I'm leaving town tomorrow and needed it fixed, I had to pay him an extra $90 for 10 minutes worth of work. $125 for a job that should have cost $65. I feel like a sucker. Next email is to Angie's list.

Once we had the kitchen cabinets emptied, work was begun. One crew arrived to remove the discarded cabinets and the following week, work inside the house began in earnest. The cabinets were being constructed while the removal process was proceeding. When everything was ready, the new cabinets arrived on a Monday and work continuted through conclusion on Thursday. The crews were courteous, worked without interruption, and were professional in every way. They hauled off all of the mess, their equipment, and obviously knew their trade. John supervised and was constantly in touch to meet our every need. It was a pleasure working with John and his company from start to finish.
Description of Work: We had our 34 year old kitchen remodeled. After meeting to choose the cabinet style and color, along with the particularl granite selected, work began. All existing cabinets and appliances (dishwasher, sink, stove, frig) were removed along with some tile on the wall. Then the walls were resurfaced and painted. New cabinets were designed and installed; countertops were replaced with granite; and, the appliances were then reinstalled.

Action Services called as a follow-up to a previous job they had completed for me. During the initial visit when a tankless water heater was installed, I mentioned that I was thinking about installing a water softener. Action Service contacted me and offered the water softener with no installation charge. I purchased the water softener and scheduled installation. Gil arrived at the expected time. He installed the device in about half an hour.
