Handy Ma'am Handy Woman

she was very cool and even though she had a long day, she came by on a saturday night to complete the job...on her mom's birthday no less! she did a great job, i couldn't be happier and her price was just perfect too. she had all of the supplies that were needed and took care of business. i am very appreciative and it looks amazing.

I spent around $200 to $300 on that work. I like her personally. She is a great person and shows up on time. She has great work ethic and I enjoy the way she does her work. She is highly recommendable. She is a very trustworthy person. I had some electrical issues and she had no problem telling me that she could not do the job. She oversaw his work and did not charge me for it. Everything with the work she has done is fine.

Great!

Andrea was responsive, prompt, professional, and pleasant. As a woman it is important for me to have someone I feel comfortable with working in my home. I have a growing list of projects and will definitely call Andrea to work on them.

I'm sure this job doesn't reveal Andrea's potential, and I really liked her timeliness and grounded approach. She's definitely in my rolodex of 'who to call'

We were selling a condo and the Buyer requested some repairs. We live in a different city and I found Handy Ma'am, Andrea, on Angie's List. I had called places close to the condo since this was a small job and wanted to make it convenient. The first service I contacted was on the high side with minimum hrs. plus travel, etc. I called Handy Ma'am next. Andrea called me back that day, I explained the work needed, and she quoted me a very fair price. She kept in touch by email and phone, and even though she didn't know me and I lived in the Midwest, she did the work without asking for a credit card hold or a deposit. Escrow closing was 2 weeks away when I contacted her and she fit us in with no problem. She did a little extra repair on things we hadn't mentioned but needed to be done anyway. I couldn't evaluate her work, but our agent checked it and said everything was well done. She emailed me the invoice, I tipped her 25%, and it was still half the price of the 1st quote I got.

Best Handy person EVER. She's very neat, conscientious, punctual and knowledgeable. What she doesn't know she'll do research before she comes. I can't praise her enough. My mom is equally impressed. We will definitely use Andrea in the future!

I have used many handypersons in the past from Angie's List and no complaints. However, as a female, working with Andrea means I have someone that I feel comfortable having (and leaving her) in my home, moreover, her work is of superb quality, she is on time and if her preceding job runs longer, she calls or texts with updates. My son likes her and Ginger likes her, so she's in!

My father was an excellent carpenter and overall fixer upper. Her skills would please even him, from her choice of paint to the brushes she uses. Fabulous work, wonderful attention to detail.

Wonderful work. Called her for one situation, added another. Beautiful. Plus my dog loved her.

Andrea was really a joy, her work was meticulous and well done. I needed the removal of a bathroom vanity unit, and for it to be replaced by a pedestal sink. In doing so she needed to patch, plaster and paint the wall, tile part of the floor, create new moulding and trim (which she went out of her way to match perfectly since it has long been discontinued (my house was built in 1911)). Her plumbing was perfect and she did a good job with the floor tiles and matching the color of the grout. She also went to special trouble to make sure the sink and the mirror were fixed super firmly to the wall, to create extra safety for my three year old. I would absolutely recommend her, and I will be calling on her again. She is fun to be around and I personally feel it is important to support a woman as good as her in this profession. My kid no longer says bob the builder, its andrea instead.

Well the good news was I found an office space in my neighborhood that was in my budget..the bad news, it looked like something straight out of "Shawshank Redemption". Still I knew there was "pretty" potential in there somewhere and Andrea was the key to making that happen. Although I'm sure there are fine gentlemen who do fine work in the handyman category on this list, as an "unescorted" female if you will, I had a certain unease about late night renovations with a strange man. Well I have to say I hit the jackpot with Andrea, not only because she's trustworthy [had not a single trepidation about leaving her alone in the office to work] but primarily because she is a top notch handy woman who is committed to doing really excellent work -- even if that means a little extra time and effort on her part. [Who else is going to stain a mini chip in the Ikea flooring?] To quote my landlord when he saw Andrea's "after"..wow. I guarantee when I leave, the rent won't be so cheap.

I have used Andrea before. I let her know my job list , we arranged a time, she came and worked through my list. She brings her own tools, small hardware such as picture wire, etc. She arrived and took care of everything. She is pleasant, meticulous, works quietly and cleans up after herself.
